Coating the body so that oxygen and moisture can't get at the metal is one method of reducing rusting -- that's what paint, undercoatings and waxy rust prevention coatings do, but coatings aren't perfect. Scratches or stone chips in any coating will expose the metal. [Rust] occurs at the molecular level, so even the smallest mark can let rust start and it will continue to grow under the coating. I have seen large chunks of paint fall off badly rusted cars, where the paint looked pretty good but the metal was eaten almost entirely away. Another way of reducing rust is to fight it electrically. Remember how rust creates electrical power? What if we could reverse the power? That's the concept behind electronic rust prevention systems such as CounterAct. This system uses capacitance by atta...
There are huge difficulties. It's a closed police state," said David Mathieson, a consultant with Human Rights Watch in Thailand. "Many of the witnesses have been arrested and are being held in areas we don't have access to. Other eyewitnesses are too afraid. "We do believe the death toll is higher than acknowledged by the government," Shari Villarosa, the top U.S. diplomat in Myanmar, told The Associated Press Monday. "We are doing our best to get more precise, more detailed information, not only in terms of deaths but also arrests." "This 138 figure is quite credible because it's based on names of victims," Aye Chan Naing, the chief editor, told the AP Monday. "I also think the figure is accurate because of the pictures coming from inside Burma. The way they were shooting into the c...
I just didn't execute the way I need to. It's just one of those days. And if you're going to have one of those days, it's good to have it early in the week. We only have two losses but it's not the place we want to be. [Jennifer Jones] got clobbered by Cormier's Yellowknife team on Monday afternoon in a shocker. It's the second straight year Canada has been nipped by the underdogs from the North. Last year, Jones fell 10-8 to Kerry Galusha when the Territories' skip made the shot of the week in Victoria in the 10th end. "Pretty impressive for little P.E.I., isn't it. It feels pretty good," said O'[Rourke]. "I didn't realize were were in first place."
The outside pane of glass on his son's bedroom window has been broken since last summer's mammoth hailstorm that cut a swath of destruction through the region, causing millions of dollars in damage to homes, businesses and equipment. Last summer Manitoba Premier Gary Doer said Manitoba Public Insurance would likely be hit with upwards of $20 million in property claims and another $20 million for crop damage.
It's primarily people in richer countries like Canada who are emitting carbon," she says. "We are contributing to the cost (of climate change) but we aren't paying the price. "I would ring the bell for a minute and toll the bell for as many years as the person had lived, " he says. "That's what this is. It's a tolling because the Earth is dying." "It's time for people to be heard. It's time for the little guy to stand up and be heard," she says. "This is the way I can make my voice count, through the bells."
He pressed home his point by warning: "If I want to talk to one of my clients, I'd better not find him at the curling rink," or words to that effect. Janet Smith, manager of the stress line, said [Gerry Friesen]'s decision to share his story would help others do the same. "He's really putting himself out there. But in a concrete way, he is breaking the stigma. Hopefully, the spinoff will be that more people call the line when they need it. He's learning how to say no, after recognizing his anxiety and stress levels become unbearable when he takes on too much. And he's learning how to laugh. "The kids thought I was faking, because they had never heard me laugh out loud," he says.
I've been doing this for two and a half years," said Bret Stewart, another counsellor from the sparsely populated Cowboy State. "We've had 16 completed veterans in our district alone. But there are hundreds and hundreds that we intervened with and talked them down. "Normalize the subject of suicide," the army manual instructed. "Active listening may produce relief. If the soldier is armed, say, 'Let me unload your weapon and keep it safe for you while we talk.'" "It's great to put a bumper sticker on your car," he said. "But you have to do more than that. Welcome him or her home, but then ask, 'Do you need anything?' Whether you are physically or mentally wounded, we HAVE to intervene."
