With respect flecc.. They are both measuring and intending to measure different things. The Government data is examining their performance against a target they set. A very reasonable and laudable management tool. The Guardian is measuring the size of the problem. If it were physically...

Not really strange places . Many US companies have extremely rigid practices. Remember aircraft pilots are not allowed consume is it 18 hours before a flight. Having a single member in a production team sozzled puts everything in jeopardy. Writing this reminded me of an incident decades ago...

Zlatan..... You need to go a little deeper. Look at the WHO DAILY bulletins, There are new potential epidemics from all the golden oldies nearly every day, and the vast majority are snuffed out at a local level. The Covid is literally the one that got away, and it got away because its mode...

Were these Norwegians previously vaccinated?. That is the critical question.

..I am attaching this because it neatly hits a number of topics we have embroiled ourselves with over the last few years. And because you will not have access to the Irish Times . I don't think Breton is holding his breath..., But remember this is election year in France. Johnson should thank...

The one I am intrigued with is an MIT development which is liquid metal. Basically vats of molten calcium and magnesium are heated to about 600 Celsius and there is a immiscible liquid boundary between them which acts as the electrolyte. They plan it for utility scale, so not coming to an ebike...

Well I am out of it nearly 8 years now., So I cannot tell you of current enrollment etc. We modelled ours on , and indeed got plenty of support from Loughborough University, which in those pre Brexit days I am happy to acknowledge. .I organized that they would supply External Examiners for the...

I am not going to discuss personalities, but I think the problem is that Journalists, PR consultants and TV stars are getting excess adulation. Politics is a slow boring business where details matter, and long hard graft and one would be better off with National Teachers, Lawyers. even...

www.solartricity.ie Now because my house is tall and I am not great on heights, I went and got a grant aided full blown professional installation with 11 panels 4 south facing and 7 West facing. This gives a longer lower power yield per day which suits better. My install cost 7000euro The...

Each of the references directs you to a paper. This is what universities do , its not kindergarten.

Since your question JHC directly mirrors the Mike in this following question , and you were trying a Gotcha ... Well read and learn. We actually did that calculation back in 2006. The 2013 paper is particularly germane, as it from the same manufacturer , and while a slightly smaller machine...

Yes but the only consumable non recyclable at present is the fibre glass in the blades...and imaginative uses are being found for them. Including flood defences ,foot bridges , artificial reefs for fish .. The recycling energy cost of the steel and other metals is very small. And of course the...

850kw peak equates to about 360 kwhr average per hour , I leave it as an excercise to the diligent student to work out what energy that produces in a 16 year period to date and then extrapolate for the remaining 16 years of the towers lifetime. For extra marks, they can work out the recovery...

I remember chatting to the telephone and water repair crews back in the day when I was a young lad and they would use these things to heat up the brazing irons used to seal underground telephone wires and cables. They would have maybe 3 irons in the fire, and take one off and drip molten tin...

At present Delta is the global front runner, but remember all the strains from Wuhan original and all the others are out there each infecting people at their own rates, and as yet we have only had a mere 260 million certified illnesses out of a possible 8000 million. In fairness we are making it...

Actually it is known why epidemics grow reach steady state and then decay. .Its exactly the same as a forest fire . They run out of new fuel or people to infect. Even the more virulent infections rarely kill everyone , so a few survivors , .. survive. Otherwise the entire population dies and...

There is nothing to stop a person being infected by all the current strains simultaneously other than probability of getting infected. One strain does not protect from another except in the sense that when the body is actually producing antibodies for one it might suppress another which is just...

Short answer ..Yes

Solar panels are now extremely low cost ... The retail price for a 340 w peak power unit ... 36 v at about 10 amps is about 140 euro plus vat. The fittings .. brackets ,rails, roof mounting waterproof boots add up a bit more so could be maybe 220 euro .. . I would see every south ,east and...
