Net Neutrality May Yet Be Achievable…Maybe

Years ago now Google quietly announced its “Loon Balloon Project” in New Zealand. The objective was to launch high altitude balloons that could potentially float over areas of the globe that did not yet have Internet access. The tech press predicted that the idea was “loony” indeed, though some called it “crazy cool.” Google has since also dabbled with the idea of low earth orbit satellites to achieve the same goal. With the rise of SpaceX, this seems an even more interesting technological approach, though other firms in the 1990s lost large amounts of money and failed.  A modest aerospace company and a subsidiary of Airbus in Toulouse France is manufacturing low-orbit internet access satellites, hoping to launch as many as 650 such satellites in a “global constellation”. The idea that is captivating me is the potential for space-based Internet access to potentially provide an alternative to growing political and corporate control and Balkanization of the Internet.

OneWeb Launches First Six Internet Access Satellites

Political Internet Censorship And Access In Developing World Potentially Solvable

Aclear plastic box the size of a sofa sits in an underground factory in the suburbs of Toulouse in southern France. Inside it, a nozzle fixed to a robot arm carefully drips translucent gloop onto bits of circuitry. This is to help get rid of excess heat when the electronics start to operate. The slab that is created is then loaded onto a trolley and taken away as the next piece of electronics arrives for the same treatment.
This is what the mass production of satellites looks like. Making them in quantity is a necessity for OneWeb. The company was founded in 2012, and it has yet to launch a single satellite. Yet it plans to have 900 in orbit by 2027. That seems a tall order. Intelsat, the firm which currently operates more communications satellites than any other, has been around for 54 years and has launched just 94.
OneWeb, which is part-owned by Airbus, a European aerospace giant, and SoftBank, a Japanese tech investor, needs such a large quantity of satellites because it wants to provide cheap and easy internet connectivity everywhere in the world. Bringing access to the internet to places where it is scarce or non-existent could be a huge business. Around 470m households and 3.5bn people lack such access, reckons Northern Sky Research, a consultancy. OneWeb is one of a handful of firms that want to do so. They think the best way to widen connectivity is to break with the model of using big satellites in distant orbits and instead deploy lots of small ones that sit closer to the ground.
The rate at which an object orbits depends on how far away it is. At a distance of 380,000km, the Moon takes a month to travel around the Earth. The International Space Station, around 400km up, buzzes round in an hour and a half. In between, at an altitude of about 36,000km, there is a sweet spot where satellites make an orbit once a day. A satellite in this orbit is thus “geostationary”—it seems to sit still over a specific spot. Almost all today’s satellite communications traffic, both data and broadcasts, goes through such satellites.
The advantage of a geostationary orbit is that the antennae that send data to the satellite and those that receive data coming down from it do not need to move. The disadvantage is that sending a signal that far requires a hefty antenna and a lot of power. And even at the speed of light, the trip to geostationary orbit and back adds a half-second delay to signals. That does not matter for broadcasts, but it does a little for voice, where the delay can prove tiresome, and a lot for some sorts of data. Many online services work poorly or not at all over such a connection. And it always requires a dish that looks up at the sky.

Head in the clouds

Ships, planes and remote businesses rely for internet connections on signals sent from geostationary orbit, but this method is too pricey for widespread adoption. Beaming the internet via satellites orbiting closer to the planet has been tried before. The idea was popular at the height of the tech boom of the late 1990s. Three companies—Teledesic, Iridium and Globalstar—poured tens of billions of dollars into the low-Earth orbit (leo) satellite internet. It culminated in the collapse of Teledesic. Although the technology of the time worked, it was very costly and so the services on offer had to be hugely expensive, too. Iridium survived, but as a niche provider of satellite telephony, not a purveyor of cheap and fast internet access.
OneWeb is among several firms that are trying leo satellites again. SpaceX, a rocket company founded by Elon Musk, a tech entrepreneur, is guarded about its proposed system, Starlink, but on November 15th American regulators approved an application for 7,518 satellites at an altitude of 340km (bringing the total for which the firm has approval to nearly 12,000). Telesat, a Canadian firm, has plans for a 512-satellite constellation. LeoSat, a startup with Japanese and Latin American backers, aims to build a 108-satellite network aimed at providing super-fast connections to businesses. Iridium, still in the game, will launch the final ten satellites in its new constellation of 66 by the end of the year. Not to be outdone, a Chinese state-owned firm recently announced the construction of a 300-satellite constellation. In ten years’ time, if all goes to plan, these new firms will have put more satellites into orbit by themselves than the total launched to date (see chart).

These companies want to avoid the technical issues of geostationary satellites by putting theirs into a low orbit, where the data will take only a few milliseconds to travel to space and back. And because signals need not be sent so far the satellites can be smaller and cheaper. OneWeb claims they might weigh 150kg and cost a few hundred thousand dollars, compared with a tonne or more, and tens or even hundreds of millions of dollars, for the geostationary sort.

Floating in a most peculiar way

At 1,200km up, where OneWeb intends its first satellites to operate, they do not sit still in the sky. A satellite overhead will sink below the horizon seven minutes later. That has two consequences. First, to ensure that a satellite is always available to any user, a great many are required. Second, to talk to such a satellite you need an antenna that can track it across the sky.
One way to understand this is as a cellular-phone network turned inside out. On Earth, cell-phone towers are fixed; a user’s phone talks to the closest or least busy one, which may change as the user moves or traffic alters. In OneWeb’s system each satellite is a moving cell tower, circling the Earth from pole to pole in one of 18 orbital planes that look like lines of longitude (see diagram). The 900 cells, each one covering an area of a bit more than 1m kilometres, skim across the Earth at 26,000km an hour. Clever software hands transmission from one satellite to the next as they move into and out of range.

There are three ways to connect to such a network. One is to place an antenna on a terrestrial cell tower, which can use the satellites to get data to and from a mobile-phone network, in place of the fibre optic, microwave or cable links that are normally used. The second is for homes and businesses to have their own ground terminals, smaller and cheaper antenna that can talk to the satellite. The third is for vehicles to have ground terminals. This might be important for driverless cars, which will need to transmit and receive large volumes of data over an area which may be broader than that covered by appropriate terrestrial cellular networks.
In all cases data will make their way to the wider internet through large ground-based dishes, called gateways. An email sent from a house connected to one of the new satellite network, for example, would travel up to a passing satellite, down to a gateway then onward to its destination.
The firms involved today hope to overcome the obstacles confronting the previous generation of leo satellite firms because building and launching hundreds of satellites is now much cheaper. The cost of launch in particular has tumbled in the past decade with the arrival of better rockets and more competition. OneWeb has a contract, reportedly valued at over €1bn ($1.1bn), for 21 launches with Arianespace, a European consortium. Russian-built Soyuz craft will also take 34 to 36 satellites up at a time from either French Guiana or Kazakhstan. OneWeb may later use Blue Origin, a rocket firm owned by Amazon’s founder, Jeff Bezos; it also has a contract for launching single satellites to replace ones that break down with Virgin Orbit. Virgin Group, like Airbus and SoftBank, is an investor in the company. SpaceX intends to launch its satellites on its own rockets.

Space to grow

The bigger challenge is making satellites quickly and cheaply enough to fill up these rockets. It typically takes existing satellite-makers two years to build one after contracts are signed. They are not up to the challenge, says Jonny Dyer, who worked on a Google project that first brought the OneWeb team together (but stayed with Google when the two parted ways). “The supply chain does not scale,” he says. “They’re not used to working at those volumes, and they’re not used to the unit cost.”
OneWeb and SpaceX thus not only have to make new satellites, they have to build a system for building satellites. OneWeb has been doing so in Toulouse for the past two years. Its first satellite was completed in April and ten more will be ready in time for the company’s first launch, some time before February 2019. To step up manufacture, OneWeb is building two copies of its production line in a new factory in Florida. It hopes to have the first satellite from this facility ready before March 2019 and to raise output to ten a week not long after.
The factory floor in Toulouse has separate workstations for propulsion systems, communications payload, solar panels and so on. Satellites in the making move on robot carts from one station to the next. Cameras track the components and look out for errors—misalignments and the like. The finished cube is about the size of a beach ball bedecked with antennae and solar panels. After testing, it is shipped out. The system has had teething problems. The first launch will be more than a year behind schedule. But Greg Wyler, OneWeb’s boss, says he still hopes to offer connectivity in places in higher northern latitudes, such as Alaska and Britain, by the end of 2019.
Putting satellites in place is only part of the problem. How useful they will prove to be depends on designing and building antennae to get data to homes or vehicles that are not close to terrestrial cell towers. “The elephant in the room…has always been the ground terminal,” says Nathan Kundtz, the former boss of Kymeta, which makes antennae. Mr Kundtz says that tracking satellites across the sky mechanically is untenable if the antennae are to be affordable and widely used. His firm does tracking electronically. No moving parts, he says. Teledesic failed in part because no such ground terminal existed in the late 1990s. Fortunately, the necessary electronics have shrunk in size and cost.

Aerial combat

Firms such as Kymeta, along with at least two other companies, Phasor and Isotropic Systems, are producing flat, electronically “steerable” antennae with no moving parts that can send and receive signals from leo satellites. Kymeta’s antenna is the least orthodox. It relies upon the same kind of lcddisplay found in laptops and flat-screen televisions. Instead of using the 30,000 pixels in its screen to display images, it uses them to filter and interpret the satellite signal by allowing it to pass through at some pixels and blocking it at others. Different patterns of pixels act like a lens, focusing the signal onto a receiver beneath them; the pattern shifts up to 240 times a second, changing the shape of the “lens” and thus keeping track of the satellites overhead. Phasor’s system works similarly, but uses an electronically controlled array of microchips to perform the same task. Isotropic Systems, which has said that it is developing an antenna that will be able to receive signal from OneWeb’s satellites, uses an optical system more like Kymeta’s.
Kymeta and Phasor have both said that they do not want to sell antennae directly to consumers, but will focus on businesses, cellular networks, maritime and aviation customers instead. Isotropic Systems has announced that it will use its technology to produce a “consumer broadband terminal” in time for OneWeb’s launch. Once available, consumers are most likely to get the new pizza-size antennae through their internet service providers. But if it is too expensive for people to receive signals on the ground—most of the world’s unconnected are poor—those ventures selling direct to consumers will struggle. Mr Wyler says his firm needs antennae that cost $200 at most for the consumer business to thrive.
Telesat, the next biggest firm in terms of constellation size, is taking a different approach. It does not plan to offer services to consumers directly, but instead is focusing on filling in gaps for cellular networks, as well as businesses, ships and planes. Specialised telecoms companies would buy bandwidth and resell it. In contrast to Messrs Wyler and Musk, and their aspirations for global coverage, Telesat has divided the surface of the planet into thousands of polygons, and modelled exactly in which ones it makes financial sense to offer strong connectivity. This means its constellation needs fewer expensive gateways.
Mr Wyler, in contrast, is known as something of a connectivity evangelist. His first satellite internet firm, o3b (Other 3 Billion), placed large satellites in a higher orbit, providing a connection only slightly slower than a leosatellite. Now owned by ses, a larger satellite company, o3b specialises in providing connectivity to islands that are otherwise cut off. OneWeb’s goal of connecting consumers is largely in the hands of SoftBank, its main investor, which owns the exclusive rights to sell the new bandwidth.
Even if the new satellites bring the internet to people and parts of the planet that have been ill-served up until now, putting ever more objects in space brings another set of difficulties. Satellites in densely packed constellations may crash into each other or other spacecraft. “If there are thousands [of satellites] then they’ll have much higher probability of colliding,” says Mr Dyer. “If there is a collision in these orbits it will be a monumental disaster. At 1,000km, if there’s an incident it will be up there for hundreds of years.” Geostationary satellites, because they do not move relative to each other, are unlikely to collide.

Managing constellations is particularly difficult, says Mr Wyler, because each satellite has only a tiny amount of power to work with (equipping small ones with bigger thrusters would be hugely expensive). So even if a crash were imminent, there would be little that could be done about it other than watch. “What are you gonna do? Nothing. Get popcorn. There’s nothing to do,” says Mr Wyler. OneWeb has designed its constellation so that faulty satellites fall out of orbit immediately to avoid this risk.

Access all areas

The new constellations will also raise tricky questions of national jurisdiction. Countries generally have control of the routers which connect them to the wider terrestrial internet. Satellites threaten that control. The national regulators that OneWeb has talked to are uneasy, says Mr Wyler, because it would create a route to the internet that countries could not monitor. OneWeb’s intention is to build 39 “gateways” on the ground around the world that will beam up and receive traffic from its satellites.
The first is under construction in Svalbard, a remote Norwegian island chain. These access points, and those planned by other firms, present another difficulty. Some countries are willing to share gateways with other countries. Others want their own because they are concerned that third parties will be able to monitor internet traffic, potentially using it to hack data flows of national importance.
Questions remain about whether the businesses involved can do all they promise cheaply enough. But if these companies succeed, their impact will go beyond helping to bring 3.5bn people online. Mr Musk has hazy plans to use Starlink as the foundation for a deep-space network that will keep spacecraft connected en route to Mars and the Moon.
With a network of satellites encircling the planet, humans will soon never be offline. High-quality internet connections will become more widespread than basic sanitation and running water. The leo broadband firms are trying to reinvent the satellite industry. But the infrastructure they are planning will provide a platform for other industries to reinvent themselves, too.
Correction (December 11th, 2018): This piece originally stated that Intelsat has launched 59 satellites in its 54-year history. That is the number of active satellites the firm has in orbit. The firm has successfully launched 94. Sorry.

Keep up with those biogs, Richard Armitage

Heinz Kruger was an opera singer?

Captain America: The First Avenger

~ by Servetus on October 11, 2016.

10 Responses to “Keep up with those biogs, Richard Armitage”

  1. Thanks for the link on this. I think this interview is just delightfully funny. His facial expressions in response to some of the questions are priceless, and the interviewer, a comic guy, did his homework. He chose Guy of Gisborne in answer to q about which character he would like to team up with as himself, in a buddy cop movie. Quick thinking – because in a way, he was 1/2 a buddy combo in Robin Hood Season 3.

    • I loved this interviewer — cared enough to do his homework but didn’t make it all insider baseball like some of the Hobbit interviews, despite his pop culture background. Will definitely be in my top ten.

      Liked by 1 person

  2. What an amusing and enjoyable interview. Perry is right. The interviewer was very well prepared and likeable. Hahaha.. veteran actor!! Well that bothered our man obviously. Loved the fact that he came up with Guy. It implies that not only we are still in favour of a certain dark knight! Big side benefit: from now on we have an idea how Richie looks on Skype….. 😉

  3. Back off, Richie! Keep off your pretty hands away from my ❤ Guy!

Apologies for a very Jeep-centered question, that may not interest everybody. Here goes:

I own a 2009 Wrangler JKU (pre face-lift), equipped with the 2.8 TD engine, Chrysler NSG370 six-speed manual transmission, and the NV241 transfer. The transfer case is directly mated to the gearbox.

This transfer is a part-time 4x4 system: the vehicle is most of the time in rear-wheel drive. When the front axle is connected, it turns at the same speed as the rear axle, which is fine on slippery surfaces and in straight lines, but quite bad when going through curves on dry roads due to transmission build-up.

Other Jeep models have full-time 4x4 transfer cases, such as the NP242 from the Cherokee XJ. These allow some slip from front to back axle, and can more easily be used in situations where one is constantly going from dry asphalt to wet snow and back to dry, often found in mountain driving in winter.

I am looking for any advice as to whether a NP242 would be a drop-in replacement for my NP241. Specifically, I am thinking of not having to modify:

  • Chassis supports and general shape of the T-box (the swap should not be immediately apparent).
  • The number of splines on the clutch output shaft (I think 23 splines?).
  • The reduction ratio, 2.72:1 is fine for my purposes (no rock-crawling).

Otherwise, a transfer case from a Grand Cherokee WJ would probably be easier to source from the breakers where I live. Any ideas on which T-case would fit the JK?

  • I asked this question of a friend of mine who is a Jeep enthusiast. He thought (but wasn't sure) that the NV241 and NP242 were externally the same. He thought it should bolt up. He wasn't positive, though, because nobody in his circle has done that swap. They go the other directions because of doing rock-crawling. He said it should work, but be aware it will be for on road use ... none of that creepy-crawly stuff. Jul 31 '15 at 18:36
  • @Paulster2 Excellent news, I am much obliged to both!
    Jul 31 '15 at 19:20
  • Make sure you CONFIRM that before you go snagging a new/used one. Jul 31 '15 at 19:22
  • @Paulster2 I will, and will also take a hard look at the operating lever linkage before cutting up my trim.
    Jul 31 '15 at 19:48

I've got a NP241OR on my Wrangler, and would never downgrade myself (4:1 ratio, significantly stronger than the other t-cases), but yes you can mount a NV231 or NP242 with no modifications to:

  • Chassis supports and general shape of the T-box (the swap should not be immediately apparent).

However, the inputs/outputs of transfer cases are easily swappable, and thus what you source your NP242 from (and whether or not the previous owner made any modifications themselves, like the very common slip-yoke eliminations or spline changes to accommodate non-stock driveshafts). According to the this rebuilder, the NP242 came in both 21 and 23 spline input varieties, and doesn't look to have nearly as much variety as more common ones (see the NP241 page for an idea of how much different input/output options can vary).

All that to say you may need to adapt the input and output, but the NP242 itself will work just fine, albeit significantly weaker and with a less extreme reduction ratio.

What you should do is note the input spline count (23) of your model, and the output style, and seek either a NP242 that exactly matches, or plan on retrofitting with the proper input/output, or swap them from your NP241. Since modifications and even swaps are common, don't just assume the donor vehicle matches the OEM specifications.

Daimler Mobility Services at SXSW: On the edge to autonomous mobility

Daimler Mobility Services at SXSW: On the edge to autonomous mobility

Mar 9, 2018
  • Daimler Mobility Services presents itself with the brands car2go, moovel, mytaxi and Blacklane at the tech festival in Texas
  • Mobility Cube in Palm Park under the umbrella „On the edge to autonomous mobility“
  • moovel Lab presents „Who Wants to Be a Self-Driving Car“ project

Daimler Mobility Services, which encompasses all mobility services provided by Daimler, will be represented by the car2go, moovel, and mytaxi brands at this year’s SXSW. Rounding off the mobility trio will be Blacklane, a holding of Daimler Mobility Services. Together, the four mobility providers will present their portfolios in the Mobility Cube in Palm Park under the motto of “On the edge to autonomous mobility.”

Getting from A to B the easy way – with a car sharing vehicle, by taxi, rental bike, chauffeur-driven limousine, or public transportation: the mobility brands Blacklane, car2go, moovel, and mytaxi have just the right services on offer. With car2go, moovel, and mytaxi represented in more than 100 cities in Europe, North America, and China, between them they boast a total of 17.8 million registered customers.

Visitors to the Mobility Cube in Palm Park will have the opportunity to meet experts on the subject of mobility, and outside the Cube, they can explore the world through the eyes of an autonomous vehicle thanks to the current moovel lab project “Who Wants to Be a Self-Driving Car?”. Information from sensors and a 3D camera is visualized in a pair of virtual reality glasses, enabling visitors to steer the unconventional vehicle through the park.

Daimler Mobility Services paving the way for a future with autonomous vehicles

Daimler AG is seen as a pioneer and market leader in innovative mobility services, with almost 18 million customers using the services offered by car2go, moovel, and mytaxi to get from A to B. And thus shaping the urban mobility of tomorrow.

Daimler Mobility Services will continue to expand its mobility portfolio and customer base, while enabling users to benefit further from the pooling of mobility products. Following a total of 24 million rental transactions in 2017 alone, car2go was able to collate a great deal of information about customer requirements. This information forms a valuable basis for Daimler’s CASE strategy. car2go, for example, uses algorithms to predict mobility demands and allow for targeted control of fleets. Know-how is an essential element when it comes to controlling autonomous vehicle fleets.

Daimler’s mobility services are based on three pillars:

  • car2go: Worldwide, car2go has three million customers and a fleet of 14,000 vehicles, making it the market leader in flexible car sharing. On average, one car2go rental begins every 1.2 seconds. With vehicles from the Mercedes-Benz brand now available too, the choice has become even more attractive. Since June 2017, when online driving license validation was introduced, customers in all European markets have been able to register for and directly access the car2go service entirely online.
  • moovel: The corporate start-up is developing an operating system for urban mobility that offers access to a range of different mobility services – including booking and payment. In Germany, the mobility app combines public transportation, car2go, mytaxi, bicycle rentals, and Deutsche Bahn. In the USA, the company’s moovel transit product portfolio makes it the market leader for mobile ticketing and payment solutions for public transportation authorities. With moovel on-demand, the moovel Group has been offering a platform for intelligent ride sharing and pooling since December 2017. moovel has almost four million users.
  • mytaxi: By merging with British taxi app Hailo in 2016 and taking over Taxibeat in Greece (02/2017) and Clever Taxi in Romania (06/2017), the number of customers has been increased to more than 11 million (end of 2017). With more than 10 million downloads worldwide, over 120,000 registered drivers, and availability in more than 70 cities across 11 European countries, mytaxi is the leading taxi booking app in Europe. Taxi apps, which enable users to book and pay for taxis via smartphone, are proving increasingly popular. Almost 30 percent of customers in Germany, for example, now book taxis using a smartphone app.

Moreover, Daimler Mobility Services holds stakes in Careem, Chaffeur Privé, Flixbus, Turo and Via as well as Blacklane. Next to car2go, moovel and mytaxi, Blacklane will be present in the Mobility Cube in Austin:

  • Blacklane: The global professional driver service Blacklane is the perfect solution for the first and last mile of travelers’ journeys. Blacklane gives passengers peace of mind and comfort in more than 50 countries, 250 cities, and from 500 airports worldwide. The company offers top quality at fair prices that are calculated at the time of booking, and include all fees and tips. All drivers are commercially licensed and insured. Through innovative technology and multilingual customer service, Blacklane coordinates thousands of premium vehicles in real time – around the clock.

  • We’ve started looking into different ways of incorporating popularity into our search ranking. At the moment it has a large impact, so some really popular pages show up at the top for a lot of queries, even if the page is only tangentially related to the user’s keywords.

  • I read The Great Hunt (by Robert Jordan), the second book in the Wheel of Time series.

EMS Merchant Services Review

EMS Merchant Services, short for Electronic Merchant Systems, was founded in 1998 and has more than 40 offices around the world, headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio. They service approximately 35,000 merchants.

EMS Merchant Services Review

EMS has a number of products and services that merchants might find appealing, including in-house merchant accounts, two different smartphone apps for mobile processing, a custom tablet-based POS app, data metrics and insights reporting, card reader terminals, virtual terminals, ecommerce support, and Flok compatibility. All of this means that they are on the cutting edge of the technological innovations that are taking over credit card processing merchant services, online payment merchant services, and others industry areas.

EMS does have steep early termination fees, and doesn’t offer no contract credit card merchant services. This means that they may not be merchants choice card services. There are also a number of complaints lodged against them regarding hidden fees. The $595 early termination fee is a good example of this, as it may not be pointed out by the sales rep you work with. There have also been complaints that they push terminal leases, which can be a bad use of precious capital for a new small business. Customers may find themselves forced to negotiate with EMS for lower rates or to get out of disadvantageous leasing agreements that they were talked into.  Finally, they only offer a tiered pricing model, which can get expensive for companies that are hovering just under the cheaper tier, and isn’t as preferable as the interchange-plus model that many companies are moving to.

While EMS offers many good applications and technological aids, the cons mean they don’t even breach the top 10 merchant services providers. The contract terms are much too strict, and the early termination fee is well above the industry average. All of this means that you should look elsewhere for merchant services.

Humboldt Merchant Services Review

Humboldt Merchant Services is based in Eureka, California. They appear to be a subsidiary of the Canadian company Moneris, and specialize in working with high-risk business models. They provide a number of standard merchant services, including card transactions, currency conversions, and POS software.

Humboldt Merchant Services Review

Humboldt Merchant Services might be one of, if not the best merchant services provider for high-risk business models. Their merchant services include all of the standard features that you’d expect from a merchant services provider, including debit and credit card processing, multi-currency conversions, EMV chip support, POS equipment, and ecommerce gateways. Moreover, across all categories, Humboldt has less than one complaint per year, which is an outstanding rate of customer satisfaction when it comes to US merchant services. While this may seem too good to be true, it does seem that Humboldt is positioning itself for a renaissance merchant services.

When it comes to merchant credit card services, there are very rarely no cons to speak of, and that’s true to an extent with Humboldt. The first issue is that they use third-party sellers for their products, which creates a risk that the salesperson won’t have the proper information or oversight to accurately explain what you’re getting. Because of this, as with any major business deal, you should be sure to read the fine print in the contract before agreeing to it so that you can be sure you understand the terms it contains. Another issue we found was that they have an early termination fee, though it wasn’t as high as other companies that we’ve reviewed.

Humboldt Merchant Services seems to be one of the best options for high-risk businesses looking for credit and debit card processing services. It can be hard to find reasonably priced merchant services providers for these companies, so Humboldt is definitely worth checking out.

I made the image over twenty years ago. Perhaps the man is ready to stop sitting back and thinking about it. Perhaps we are going to act. Know hope!

The Machine endangers all we have made.
We allow it to rule instead of obey.
To build a house, cut the stone sharp and fast:
the carver's hand takes too long to feel its way.

The Machine never hesitates, or we might escape
and its factories subside into silence.
It thinks it's alive and does everything better.
With equal resolve it creates and destroys.

But life holds mystery for us yet. In a hundred places
we can still sense the source: a play of pure powers
that - when you feel it - brings you to your knees.

There are yet words that come near the unsayable,
and, from crumbling stones, a new music
to make a sacred dwelling in a place we cannot own.

~ Rainer Maria Rilke ~
(In Praise of Mortality, trans. A. Barrows and J. Macy)
Be calm - Be clear - See the faults - See the suffering - Give your love

Since its initial conception, METS has continued to develop and adapt its programs to meet the needs of the people we support and our community. Today, METS continues to provide agency based group programs, as well as community employment supports, to over 250 individuals with intellectual / developmental disabilities in the Greater Moncton area and South Eastern New Brunswick.

Three core values form the foundation of what METS does; Dignity of the Person, Developmental Model and Life with Others. These concepts guide what we do so that the people we support are able to attain the necessary skills to live as independently as possible in their community. METS agency based programs, located in the Moncton Industrial Park, provide various activities to meet the needs of the people we serve and are designed to facilitate development in pre-employment, and life skills. These programs are funded by New Brunswick’s Department of Social Development.

Plumbing 101

Plumbing is a necessity in today’s world, with almost every building constructed requiring a system. Plumbers are in high demand in Australia, with their hourly rate going up by around 3% in just a year. It is based on basic laws like gravity and pressure, which govern the movement of water. By understanding the working of such systems, one can be self-sufficient in maintaining their home plumbing. Many of the “mysterious” fixes done by plumbers are often actually quite easy. One can also make informed choices when doing maintenance work. Some works have become quite common in certain areas, like pipe relining in the Eastern Suburbs.

Supply Systems

Plumbing systems can be understood as a combination of two subsystems. One of these deals with bringing freshwater, while the other disposes of the wastewater. The water that’s coming in is under quite a lot of pressure. This pressure makes sure that the water travels through all the pipes and reaches all parts of the building. A meter is used to calculate the amount of water consumed. A valve that allows the supply to be turned off is also placed near this meter. This prevents major damages in the event of a leak or a broken pipe. These valves are also present for individual fixtures. Heaters are very commonly used to cater to the requirement of hot water. A thermostat is used to control the temperature of the water.

Drainage Systems

Drains are responsible for taking all the wastewater out of the building. It mainly has two systems – sewer and septic. Septic tanks help in the private treatment of this waste. In comparison, sewer systems are more elaborate and take care of a group of buildings. There are more than 700 sewage treatment plants all across Australia that manage a huge amount of waste. Relining services, like the earlier mentioned pipe relining in Eastern Suburbs, are also a part of maintaining sewers.

Drainage systems do not require high pressure to function. All the drainage pipes are angled downward. This is the case in both sewage and septic systems. Drains also involve other mechanisms like vents and traps. Vents allow air to flow into the system, ensuring the proper flow of water. Traps allow the siphoning of water. Traps are quite common and can be identified by their “S shape”. These traps keep water in them, preventing the gases from the sewers from coming back up the pipes. Toilets already have traps and don’t require additional ones. Drum traps are another kind that has been in use in old bathtubs. These traps also collect hairs and grease, helping in warding off blockage. Since the drainage system involves such parts that work together, it is also known as the drain-waste-vent system.

The supply and drainage subsystems are completely separate. There is no overlapping between them. However, bridges are present, which allow the overlapping of these systems. These bridges are fixtures like sinks and toilets. Washing machines are also considered fixtures. In essence, anything that takes in freshwater and gives off wastewater is called a fixture. It is important to keep shut off valves for fixtures. They are used to shut off the water supply during repairs and maintenance works.

Water Supply

The water required in buildings is sourced mainly in two ways – wells and water lines. Water lines often make use of clean water from treatment plants. This is the case in areas like the eastern suburbs where a lot of water from the Melbourne plant is used. Each city or locality has its water lines, which can meet all the requirements if one has a connection. Wells are also a great source of freshwater. Pumps are required to pump the water out of the wells.

Steve Burton and Bradford Anderson Share Disagreement with Each Other Over Vaccine Mandate; Will Continue ‘Stone Cold and the Jackal’ Shows In 2022

On the latest episode of their That’s Awesome podcast with Steve and Bradford, released over the Thanksgiving holiday, General Hospital’s Bradford Anderson (Spinelli) and Steve Burton (Ex-Jason Morgan) took some moments to address how Steve’s decision to not adhere to the ABC and GH Covid-19 vaccine mandate (which caused the two-time Daytime Emmy-winning star to be let go from the show) would affect their live shows, podcasts, content moving forward, as well as if it has caused a riff in their friendship.

When addressing listeners of the podcast, Anderson shared the the two would continue on with their projects, but that he disagreed with Burton’s decision to not follow the GH vaccine mandate.

Photo: Podcast One

Bradford expressed: “If you know us, and know are brand, if you will, it’s built on friendships, and like all friends, we have disagreements.  I disagree with Steve’s decision and he knows that. But over are years of friendships, we have had plenty of discussions about this and other topics, and sometimes we agree and sometimes we don’t, but at the end of the day we are still friends.”

Steve added: “We usually don’t get into decisive things on the show.  Look, I have a right to believe in what I want, and you have a right to believe in what you want, and that’s what makes this country great and we have never been about division.”  In addition, Steve was clear that he has not agreed to any interviews at this time on the subject of his exit, and that he is already moving on, sharing: “I am just grateful for my time at General Hospital and the people and the friendships I have made there, especially with the fans.  I have had an incredible life. Listen, I’m OK. I’m at peace. I ‘m moving forward and I am excited about it.  Like I said in my video, when one door closes, multiple doors open, and that’s what happened already.  I’ve gotten a lot of requests for interviews that I don’t want to do, because I don’t want division … that’s the bottom line.”

Look for Anderson and Burton to hit the road in 2022 and continue with their successful Stone Cold and the Jackal live comedy show and appearances.

What did you think about how Steve and Bradford addressed their disagreement on the vaccine mandate within the podcast? Will you be seeing Steve and Bradford live if they come to your town in 2022? Comment below.
