There was a discussion on this site somewhere about those creek powered pumps.
Cool concept that pumps using the pressure head of the creek itself. You'd place it in an area of some drop or current and it lifts a lot of water around the clock Someone help me out with pointing that thing out,I'm not sure where it is here. 19305

I have three main issues with it and am thinking a clear single pane glass would be better. It would be very interesting to compare the two directly. Will your panels work? Yes. But will they be the most optimum, premium, best possible solution? I think more testing is required.I'm just using the same material that is recommended by others over on the solar site. Glass is a good transmitter, but it can be broken easily THis stuff is a bit more robust and is less expensive. Folks have a lot of success with the corrougated clear panel, and the light transmission is pretty close to clear glass from what I have read. I am not going for the most and the best here. I am only trying to keep water from freezing, nothing more. This should accomplish the task so it solves a major problem for me. Collectors I make later on might have better panels, like a clear poly-acrylic, but those would have cost $90 per collector and blown the budget up. Part of the "Charm" of this is that it is quick, easy , and cheap. Na it works, so it checks the block, and that's all I need it to do.

Coffee Induced Early Morning Rant / Toxic Masculinity??? Guilty!« on: January 18, 2017, 10:59:08 AM »
'Toxic masculinity'? Dude, now America's universities are turning men into women
Universities across the fruited plain are trying to convince men to grow lady parts. And that’s a problem, America. Campus Reform recently reported on efforts to provide “safe spaces” to fight back against what the academic world calls, “toxic masculinity.” Click here for a free subscription to Todd’s newsletter: a must-read for conservatives. Instead of a country full of manly men, our universities want a nation full of Pajama Boys. Oregon State University is hosting a “health masculinities conference.” Students will “engage in collective imagining to construct new futures for masculinities, unrestricted by power, privilege, and oppression.” Brown University has a program titled, “Masculinity 101” – for “students who identify as men,” Campus Reform reports. Get a load of the course description titled, “Unlearning Toxic Masculinity:” “Men will often resort to violence to resolve conflict because anger is the only emotion that they have been socialized to express. Unfortunately, the way that young men are conditioned to view sex and their need to be dominant and have power over others also contribute to instances of sexual assault and other forms of interpersonal violence on college campuses.” In the hit Broadway musical “My Fair Lady,” Professor Henry Higgins laments in a song, “Why can’t a woman be more like a man?” Today, Professor Higgins might be singing a different tune, “Why can’t a man be more like a woman?” Could you imagine the Greatest Generation flitting about town after a spa and dishing about their inner-most thoughts with life coaches? In today’s reengineered version of manhood, guys no longer have friends – they have bromances and they settle disputes by hugging it out. Men’s magazines are now filled with articles like, “Should a Man Show Nipple?” and “What Men Know about Wearing Eyeliner.” A survey by AskMen.com found that 20 percent of men have no problem wearing makeup. In my book, “Dispatches From Bitter America,” I pondered these developments. Can you imagine John Wayne using moisturizer and a concealer stick to hide razor nicks? Would today’s version of "The Godfather" accessorize with Dolche Gabana while settling “family” business with group hugs? A few years ago I conducted an unscientific poll to determine what the average American woman looks for in a man. The poll results were not all that surprising. Ladies want a man who loves God and loves his family. They also want a man who, in no particular order: 1. Has a job; 2. Drives a pickup truck; 3. Uses the bathroom standing up; 4. Eats meat; 5. And is willing to carry them out of a burning building. In other words -- they want the kind of man made in God's image -- not the image of some effeminate intellectual stuffed in skinny jeans sipping chai tea with his pinky finger extended 19342

We see lots of pictures of wounded male veterans but women vets get wounded and maimed too.
You may need to take a second, closer look though. The first thing I saw was a bunch of beautiful smiles. Study this picture again. Let the story it tells sink in. These women and many others, as well as their male comrades, paid this price for our freedoms. And they did it for less than what welfare recipients are paid!!! DID YOU GET THAT?!? There is more patriotism and class in those 11 ladies pictured than the majority of Congress and the (present) White House combined!!! And a HELL of a lot more than those over-paid athletes who choose to “take a knee” when the National Anthem is played!!!! They risked these injuries (or death) FOR AMERICA!
