Vehicle-to-grid Vehicle-to-grid can be used with such gridable vehicles, that is, plug-in electric vehicles (BEVs and PHEVs), with grid capacity. Since most vehicles are parked an average of 95 percent of the time, their batteries could be used to let electricity flow from the car to the power lines and back, with a value to the utilities of up to $4,000 per year per car.[3] One notable V2G project in the United States is at the University of Delaware, where a V2G team headed by Dr. Willett Kempton has been conducting on-going research. History[edit] The company AC Propulsion Inc. coined the term V2G for vehicle-to-grid.[6] Three versions[edit] V2G is a version of battery-to-grid power applied to vehicles. A hybrid or Fuel cell vehicle, which generates power from storable fuel, uses its generator to produce power for a utility at peak electricity usage times. Peak load leveling[edit] Related Terms[edit] carbitrage: This is a portmanteau of 'car' and 'arbitrage'. Backup power solutions[edit] Utilities[edit]

Penn Jillette And "Wizard Wars" Magicians Explain How Magic Works And Why It's Still Relevant If you think about it for more than a few minutes, the fact that magic is still a popular form of entertainment in 2014 is kind of surprising. When the first magic theater opened in Paris in 1845, people had few opportunities to see the impossible. Right now, without leaving your chair, you can watch a lifelike giant lizard stomp the hell out of San Francisco; you can control your favorite football players on a photorealistic gridiron; you can send a message around the world in seconds flat. But magic is relevant. No one knows magic--and how it stays relevant--like Penn Jillette, and he can trace the evolution of the form in recent years from David Copperfield (“he had a debonair quality that magicians jumped on”) to Doug Henning (“he created the kind of casual hippie magician”) to current stars like David Blaine and Criss Angel. Starting From Scratch “We've been working on that for six years with a huge amount of money and a huge amount of hours,” Jillette says. Knowing What’s Possible
Alternative Energy - Alternative Fuels; Natural Gas, LPG, NGV A Skateboard That Can Go Down Stairs Carte des maisons de retraite en France Comment nous avons procédé Du 25 janvier au 22 février 2014, les bénévoles de 118 associations locales de l’UFC-Que Choisir ont visité de façon anonyme 1 355 établissements d’hébergement pour personnes âgées dépendantes et ont ainsi pu porter une appréciation précise sur chacun d’eux. Nos visiteurs « mystère » ont pris contact avec les établissements dans l’optique de rechercher une place en maison de retraite pour un proche parent dont le degré de dépendance (Gir) n’était pas encore précisément déterminé. L’objectif fixé était de recueillir un maximum d’informations sur les établissements, de se faire communiquer, si possible, les documents préalables à la demande d’admission : tarif des prestations, règlement intérieur, contrat type, etc. et d’obtenir au moins une visite des locaux communs, voire, si possible, d’une chambre. La synthèse que nous présentons reflète donc à la fois les données recueillies sur le terrain et les réponses à notre questionnaire officiel. La chambre Les locaux
Free Energy by April 2010 On Christmas day, Steven Greer announced that the 'top secret' inventor they've talked about has been released early from military seclusion, and has contracted with them to bring a Tesla-related free energy technology to the world. On Christmas day, as "a Christmas present to the world," Steven Greer, M.D., and his science advisor, Ted Loder, Ph.D., from the Orion Project, announced on the World Puja Network that the "top secret" inventor they've talked about over the past year has been released early from military seclusion, and has contracted with them to begin bringing various technologies he has developed (in some cases at taxpayer expense) to the world, beginning with a free energy technology in the tradition of Nikola Tesla. They are hoping to have a sample prototype to begin to disclose to the public this spring. Loder said, "This is just what we've been searching for all these years. Speaking of history-making, Greer said: Relevant Links
Aerial ropeways: automatic cargo transport for a bargain Before we start, it is important to note that aerial ropeways (also known as aerial tramways or cableways) can be divided in two groups: monocable and bicable mechanisms. In a monocable system, one endless rope serves to both support and move the carriers in transit. In a bicable (or tricable) system, separate ropes sustain these functions: one or two static support ropes, the "carrying ropes" or "track cables", and one or two light travelling "haul ropes". Ancient and medieval ropeways were of both variety, while modern ropeways (from the 1850s onwards) were initially exclusively monocable systems. Later, bicable systems took over almost completely. At the end of the 19th century, both ropeway methods were also applied to canal transportation (see the article on trolley canal boats), with monocable systems used for cable trains. Ropeways in ancient times Ropeways have been used for more than 2,000 years, transporting both passengers and goods. Ropeways in the Middle Ages Motive power
Contrat de prestation de services : Les risques Définition et contours du contrat de prestation de services Le contrat de prestation de services est défini à l’article 1710 du Code civil sous le nom de « louage d’ouvrage ». Il s’agit d’une convention généralement conclue à titre onéreux entre deux parties, un prestataire et son client, et qui fait naître entre eux des droits et obligations. A quoi les parties s’engagent-elles ? Le prestataire de service s’engage à réaliser un travail spécifique, un service, et non la vente d’un produit ; Le consommateur quant à lui, s’engage à le rémunérer. La nature des services offerts par le prestataire peut être variée : conseil, livraison à domicile, services à la personne… Cette grande diversité présente le risque de voir apparaître des prestations illicites, les parties cherchant par exemple à pratiquer différents travaux non autorisés tels que le travail clandestin ou le prêt de main d’œuvre illicite.

How to Restore Faded Hazy or Yellowing Headlights by Wet Sanding and Polishing : 13 Steps (with Pictures) - Instructables When dried, it will still appear hazy and this is normal. The plastic should be white with the yellowing removed, there shouldn’t be any outlines of the old UV coating as this can be sometimes visible after the polishing stage. Make sure the light is dry, next is onto the polishing stage. There are various polishes available on the market, one of the easier to use polishes is Meguiars Ultimate Polish. Polishing can be done by hand, it is a bit more work-intensive but safer for beginners. A machine polish can be used such as an orbital, rotary, or even a drill attachment With this being plastic, the surface can be easily burned, so extreme caution is needed. Polishing by hand, always make sure your polish is mixed so shake the bottle. After a couple of minutes, wiping away the polish, you can see the light coming up. Continue polishing the light and after a little longer, here is the final finish. When dried, it will still appear hazy and this is normal.

puffergas Blog Human Powered Car HumanCar is the world’s first practical human powered four passenger car. Designed by Charles Greenwood, the vehicle is powered by a rowing-like motion that is converted into rotational power. Alternatively, built-in electric motor helps power the car when it is being operated by only one person. Leaning motion from one or more occupants directs the car. The retail price of a human powered electric car is expected to be $15,500. Also check out: Pedal Powered Submarine
