Other Things to Note
If you like the room and receive a pre approval from the host, it is only an acknowledgement that the room is available for the requested dates. A person MUST then take the next step and provide a credit card to the site to reserve the room.
Check-in time other than precisely at 2:00 p.m. must be arranged prior to arrival. If not, the guest may find himself locked out until the owner returns. Guests enter and exit through the garden door (not the front door) at the rear of the home which is accessed through the driveway gate. Quiet must be maintained after 10:00 pm because of the location of the home in a residential neighborhood. Smoking is not permitted except in the garden.
Beach towels are available by request. Bathroom towels must remain in the room. Checkout time is strict, but luggage may be left in the shed after 10:00 a.m. should a guest wish to remain on the Island for the day. No guests of guests are allowed anywhere on the property.
Thomas is an excellent host. It's clear why he has so many positive reviews. He's warm, welcoming and very hospitable. We loved our room, and the location couldn't be beat for The Christmas Stroll. He even gave us a ride to the ferry on a cold and windy morning when most of the ferries had already cancelled. Thanks for such a great experience!
Thomas was a very gracious host; very attentive, and very respectful. The room was fantastic and in a great location.
Thomas was an excellent host to me and my friend Jess! He is very informed about the island and helped us navigate it with ease. He also prepared a lovely breakfast for us each morning and chatted kindly with us at the start of each day. I would recommend his accommodations to anyone looking for a great escape. We hope to return.
Thomas is a wonderful host! He made us feel most welcome and had the room in impeccable shape when we arrived. The house is charming, and staying there felt like a step back in time. Our room was beautifully decorated, with a great bathroom en suite.
The location of Thomas' house is superb. We were able to walk into town and to different restaurants, shops and bars, as well as a Saturday farmer's market. The walk from the ferry is easy to navigate and very close. It allowed us to walk through the town center and get our bearings.
I must add that Thomas makes excellent coffee! It was lovely to sit in his kitchen in the morning and chat with Thomas and 2 other kind guests that were staying in another room.
Thomas was a wonderful, welcoming, kind and hospitable host; making our stay on Nantucket even more lovely then it already was! The room was spacious and clean with a private bath and air conditioning. Thomas' home is on a gorgeous street, just a few blocks away from Main Street and downtown Nantucket. He offered coffee and breakfast every morning. He even offered to take us to the airport for half the price it would have been to take a taxi! I would love to stay with Thomas again and absolutely recommend his property to anyone looking for a cozy place to stay on the island!
My husband and I just got back from our 3 day trip on Nantucket. It was an amazing experience. It was our first time using Airbnb and we are very pleased. Tom was very hospitable and made us feel right at home. The room is clean, the location is within 2 minutes walk to downtown and most major bike routes. Tom was super friendly, prepared a light breakfast for us each morning where we chatted briefly about each others travels and he gave some great local insight to the island. We hope to be back their soon and would recommend Tom's place to others.
Thanks Thomas! We had a great time. Extremely convenient location in the downtown area. Thomas was very friendly and is highly knowledgable about all things Nantucket. A great host - we'd return any time.
This host has 34 reviews for other properties.View Other Reviews

DescriptionIn adventure games, the emphasis is placed on experiencing a story as seen by one or more user-controlled characters, often by manipulating said character(s) and the environment they exist in. Adventure games are characterized by general lack of reflex-based gameplay (action), though they may feature such segments sporadically.
Adventure games initially featured text input and little to no graphics (interactive fiction). Afterwards, graphical adventures became more prominent and text input was replaced by a limited amount of icons/menus with verb commands.
Two distinct sub-genres of adventure games are Western-style adventures (also referred to as puzzle-solving adventure) and Japanese adventures, which typically have no puzzles and minimal interaction. Visual novels are traditionally also considered a sub-genre of adventure games.

inserting heating elements into each one of said plurality of holes.
This invention relates to thermal storage units (TSUs). More particularly, this invention relates to TSUs that provide sensible heat thermal energy storage and delivery in a way that increases efficiency and reduces costs compared to known TSUs.
TSUs are well known and are often used in power delivery systems, such as compressed air storage (CAS) systems and thermal and compressed air storage (TACAS) systems. Such systems, often used to provide an available source of electrical power, often use compressed air to drive a turbine which powers an electrical generator.
In TACAS systems, it is desirable to heat the compressed air prior to reaching the inlet port of the turbine. It is known that heated air, as opposed to ambient or cool air, enables the turbine to operate more efficiently. Therefore, a mechanism or system is needed to heat the air before providing it to the turbine. One approach is to use a suitable type of fuel-combustion system. Another approach is to use a TSU. While fuel-combustion systems usually emit polluting gases, TSUs may be preferable over fuel-combustion systems at least because they are not associated with such harmful emissions.
Although TSUs may offer advantages over fuel-combustion systems, existing TSUs have several shortcomings, as discussed below. Moreover, TSUs are typically designed to take many of the following design considerations into account:
(1) the physical dimension of the TSU;
(2) the TSU's capacity to heat fluid to a predetermined temperature;
(3) the thermal energy storage capacity of the TSU;
(4) the mass flow rate of fluid flowing through the TSU;
(5) the ability to minimize the pressure drop of fluid as it flows through the TSU;
(6) the ability to heat the fluid using forced convection heating;
(7) providing reliable and safe operation in high pressure applications; and
(8) low manufacturing costs.
Conventional TSUs, such as those shown in
TSU 10 of
Another known TSU uses tube flow through elongated cavities embedded in a solid medium. As shown in
Therefore, it can be seen that the TSUs shown in
In view of the foregoing, it is an object of this invention to provide a low-cost TSU that provides efficient heat storage, heat delivery and pressure containment.
It is also an object of the invention to provide enhanced design flexibility to better adhere to predetermined design criteria.
These and other objects of the present invention are accomplished in accordance with the principles of the present invention by providing a TSU that is constructed using a casting process. A TSU according to the present invention may be constructed by first providing a conduit (or fluid conducting structure) and then subjecting that conduit to a casting process. The conduit may provide a pathway through which fluid flows through the TSU and the casting process may yield a cast that envelops the conduit with thermal storage material. The cast may have desirable thermal mass or thermal storage properties and may be fabricated from inexpensive material, such as ductile iron. The cast may permeate and occupy substantially all free space existing immediately adjacent to and near the conduit, resulting in a cohesive and integrated TSU in which the conduit and the cast may be fused together. Thus, after the cast sets, a solid thermal conducting mass having a fluid conducting passageway, as defined by the conduit, is provided.
An advantage of constructing a TSU using a casting process is that it provides substantial design flexibility, while reducing manufacturing cost. Design flexibility may be realized because the design and selection of the material composition of the conduit may be exercised independent of the design and selection of the material composition of the cast. This may enable TSUs according to the invention to have mass flow and thermal transfer properties and pressure containment not previously attainable in prior art TSUs. For example, the TSU may include a conduit that is a parallelepiped structure (e.g., a structure in which the fluid path passes back and forth along a particular axis a predetermined number of times), which is contained within a cast. It may not be possible to construct such a TSU using conventional machining techniques, and even if it were possible, the cost would be prohibitively expensive.
Moreover, the cast may permeate and occupy the free space existing between the parallelepiped structure, thereby maximizing the heat storage capacity and heat transfer capacity of the TSU. In addition to providing energy storage and efficient heat transfer, the cast may provide structural support for the TSU, thereby enabling it to contain pressurized fluids.
The TSU may be heated to a predetermined temperature or a predetermined range of temperatures. This may be accomplished using a heating system that uses internal or external heaters to heat the cast. In one embodiment, internal heaters such as cartridge heaters may be housed in holes bored into the cast of the TSU. When active, the internal heaters radiate heat to the cast, thereby raising the temperature of the TSU to a desired temperature.
The TSU according to the invention may be used in a TACAS system. In a TACAS system, compressed gas may be sensibly heated by the TSU before it is routed to a turbine inlet of a turbine-generator. The heated compressed air drives a turbine, which powers an electrical generator to provide electrical power. An advantage of using the TSU according to the invention is that it may heat the compressed gas without requiring the use fuels, which when combusted cause pollution.
The above and other features of the present invention, its nature and various advantages will be more apparent upon consideration of the following detailed description, taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which like reference characters refer to like parts throughout, and in which:
FIGS. 3A-C show perspective and cross-sectional views of an illustrative thermal storage unit in accordance with the principles of the present invention;
FIGS. 7A-B show heat transfer diagrams of a portion of the TSU of
FIGS. 3A-C shows several views of a thermal storage unit (TSU) 100 that is in accordance with the principles of the present invention. In particular,
TSU 100 may include conduit 110 and cast 120 and have longitudinal axis 150. As shown in
As shown in
TSU 100 may be used to heat or cool the fluid flowing through conduit 110, depending on the application in which TSU 100 is being used. For purposes of clarity and simplicity, it will be assumed that TSU 100 is used to heat fluid. In TACAS applications, for example, TSU 100 may heat the fluid to a predetermined range of temperatures for driving a turbine-generator. (A more detailed discussion of the operation of a turbine-generator in connection with TACAS system is discussed below in the text accompanying
TSU 100 addresses these temperature and pressure requirements, as well as other criteria such as physical dimensions of the TSU, the mass flow rate of fluid through the TSU, and reliable and safe operation in high pressure applications, by constructing the TSU with conduit 110 and cast 120 according to the invention. This conduit 110 and cast 120 construction provides enhanced design flexibility at relatively low manufacturing costs not previously attained by the prior art. Low manufacturing costs may be achieved because conventional products and materials may be used to construct conduit 110 and cast 120. Moreover, the conduit and cast construction eliminates the need to perform time consuming and expensive drilling (e.g., high precision and/or tolerance drilling) to provide one or more fluid conducting passageways.
Design flexibility may be achieved because conduit 110 may be designed independent of cast 120. For example, conduit 110 may be a parallelepiped structure such as that shown in
Conduit 110 may be a single piece or multiple piece construction. As a single piece construction, conduit 110 may be seamless in construction. For example, it may be a long pipe (e.g., a forty foot pipe having a predetermined inner diameter) that is bent into a predetermined shape (e.g., a parallelepiped shape). A multiple piece construction may be an assembly of components connected to create a continuous flow path. For example, such construction may includes a series of pipes or other flow conducting members connected together in a predetermined configuration.
Conduit 110 may be constructed from materials that have suitable thermal conductivity and that are capable of containing pressure and withstanding temperature variations. For example, one suitable material may be a stainless steel such as 304 steel. Alternatively, to minimize costs by using standard available piping, while ensuring that the predetermined pressure and temperature requirements are met, conventional steel, iron, aluminum, or copper piping may be used. In addition, conduit 110 may be constructed from materials that have a high resistance to oxidation.
Moreover, the positioning of inlet 112 and outlet 116 may be a matter a design choice. For example, both inlet 112 and outlet 116 may be positioned on the same end of the TSU or on opposite ends. Moreover, the inlet and outlet need not protrude from cast 120 parallel with axis 150. If desired, inlet and outlet may protrude from cast 120 perpendicular to axis 150.
Design flexibility is further achieved because cast 120, when in its amorphous or molten state, envelops and bonds to conduit 110, regardless of the shape of conduit 110. Furthermore, the �external� shape of cast 120 may be set to have pre-determined dimensions (e.g., a rectangular or circular shape of desired dimensions) while the cast is in its amorphous or molten state. This flexibility in shaping the casting material provides for a TSU that may be custom fit into an integrated package such as a TACAS backup power supply system. If desired, cast 120 may be shaped to minimize the external surface area, thereby maximizing the heating capacity and potential for retaining heat within the thermal storage material. Insulation may be used to further enhance the heating capacity and potential to retain heat.
In one embodiment, cast 120 may be made to have a rectangular shape (e.g., 10″�10″�30″ rectangular box), which may be easily manufactured and packaged. The rectangular shape may be an ideal cast for a parallelepiped conduit structure such as that shown in
Cast 120 may be obtained through one or multiple casting stages. In a single stage casting process, the casting material may be applied to conduit body 114 in one step to create the TSU according to the invention. If a multiple stage casting process is performed, the casting material may be applied to conduit body 114 in several steps using, for example, different materials in each step. For example, certain materials may be applied to ensure a bond between adjacent layers of the cast material and to minimize porosity or sponginess in the cast.
Cast 120 may include one or more types of materials that exhibit desirable thermal mass and or thermal storage properties. Such materials may include, for example, iron, steel, stainless steel, aluminum, other metals, or alloys and composites thereof. If desired, such materials may be ductile to permit ease of drilling, for example, of holes in which heating elements may be inserted. Other more advanced casting materials may be used to further enhance the thermal energy storage capacity. One such material is high silicone molybdenum ductile iron, which is alloyed with silicone and molybdenum to allow the material to be used at a higher temperature, enhancing energy storage performance.
During the casting process, it may be desirable to cast the material so that it is uniformly distributed about conduit 110. For example, conduit 110 may be positioned concentrically within cast 120, irrespective of the cast's shape, to provide a relatively equal distribution of thermal storage material on each side of conduit 110. Such a distribution may promote more uniform and complete extraction of energy from cast 120.
By using a casting process, TSU 100 may be designed to have specific mass flow and heat transfer characteristics. Optimizing such characteristics may be useful, for example, in a system (e.g., a TACAS system) that utilizes heated compressed gas to drive a turbine-generator. The mass flow rate of fluid flowing through TSU 100 may be a function of one or more of the following criteria: the pressure of the fluid applied to inlet 112 of TSU 100, the shape of conduit 110, the cross-sectional area of conduit 110, and the length of conduit 110. It is appreciated that many of these criteria (e.g., shape, cross-sectional area, and length of conduit 110) can be accounted for based on the design of conduit 110. As such, TSU 100 may exhibit desired mass flow properties such as a predetermined pressure drop across the TSU.
The heat transfer rate may be a function of one or more of the following criteria: the temperature of conduit 110 and cast 120, the convection coefficient, which may depend on the mass flow rate (described above), the surface area of conduit 110 exposed to cast 120, and the surface area of fluid exposed to the inner walls of conduit 110. It will be appreciated that many or all of these criteria can be accounted for when designing and manufacturing TSU 100 in accordance with the principles of the present invention. That is, the design flexibility of both conduit 110 and cast 120 enables a TSU to be constructed that rapidly heats (or cools) a fluid to a predetermined temperature.
TSU 100 may be heated to and maintained at a predetermined temperature using a heating system (examples of which are discussed below) so that heat stored in the thermal storage material (e.g., cast 120) of TSU 100 can be transferred to a fluid flowing through TSU 100. In some embodiments, TSU 100 may be heated and maintained at a predetermined temperature while utility power is available and TSU 100 may transfer heat to a fluid when utility power is not available. An example of such an embodiment is described in more detail below in connection with
TSU 100 may be heated using one or more of many different heating techniques. Some of these techniques preferably may use exhaustless or non-polluting methods to heat TSU 100. Though exhaustless or non-polluting methods are preferred, it will be appreciated that pollution causing heating techniques (e.g., techniques that use fuel) may be implemented to heat TSU 100. Regardless of the technique used, cast 120 may be heated by radiation means of an external or internal heater. For example, an external heater may include a ceramic fiber heater that is attached to the outer surface of TSU 100 heats cast 120 through radiation when actuated. An internal heater may, for example, include heating elements (e.g., heating rods or cartridge heaters) that are placed into one or more cavities extending through a portion or the entire length of TSU 100. When such heating elements are actuated, they transfer heat to the thermal storage material (e.g., cast 120 and conduit 110) of TSU 100. A more detailed discussion of such an internal heating system (e.g., cartridge heating system) is discussed, for example, in co-pending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/943,636, filed Sep. 17, 2004 (hereinafter �the '636 application�), which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
It will also be understood by persons skilled in the art that, alternatively, the thermal storage material of TSU 100 may be heated by any other suitable type of heating system. For example, a resistive heater may provide a heat source that is in physical contact with the thermal storage material of TSU 100 and may heat this material to a predetermined temperature. Alternatively, electrically conductive thermal storage materials, such as iron, may be heated inductively using induction heating circuitry that causes current to circulate through and heat the thermal storage material of TSU 100. Thus, the invention is not limited to the specific heating techniques discussed above.
Insulation (not shown) may be used to improve the heat capacity of TSU 100. That is, the insulation may permit TSU 100 to be heated to temperatures not possible in the absence of insulation because of heat losses. In addition, insulation may permit TSU 100 to maintain a predetermined temperature, while requiring less power to maintain such a temperature. The insulation may blanket all or a portion of TSU 100 and may be shaped to conform to the outer surface of TSU 100. The insulation may include any material that provides heat retention. For example, the insulation may include ceramic insulation or microporous board insulation.
The foregoing discussion of TSU 100 described the use of one conduit that is subjected to a casting process to produce a TSU according to the present invention. In another embodiment, a TSU may be constructed to have multiple conduits contained within a cast according to the present invention. In this particular embodiment, two or more conduits of a desired size and shape are subjected to a casting process to provide the TSU.
In yet another embodiment, a conduit network (or pipe network), such as a single annular channel or multiple annular channel TSU, may be subjected to a casting process. An annular channel may be contained between an inner member and an outer member, both of which may include thermal mass or thermal storage material having desirable energy or heat storage properties and may be fabricated using standard mill products. The annular channel may be coupled to a port or pipe on each end of the channel for either providing fluid thereto or projecting fluid therefrom. In a multiple annular channel embodiment, the TSU may include multiple substantially parallel annular flow channels, each being contained between the outer member and a different inner member. If desired, the multiple substantially parallel annular flow channels may be coupled to each other via transverse channels such that various fluid routing arrangements and piping connections are made possible within the TSU.
Also shown in
The foregoing discussion concerning the conduit network, especially with regards to the single and multiple annular channel, is not meant to be an exhaustive discussion, but merely an illustrative discussion of possible pipe networks that can be subject to a casting process to enhance the thermal storage capacity of the conduit network. A more detailed discussion of, for example, single and multiple annular channel TSUs can be found in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/943,293, filed Sep. 17, 2004, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
An advantage of the TSU of the present invention is that the TSU may have a reduced susceptibility to oxidation, also known as �fouling.� In particular, even though the cast material may be ductile iron, which may be susceptible to oxidation if left untreated, fluids passing through the TSU may not come into contact with the cast because the conduit provides sufficient pressure containment. However, as an added precaution, the cast and/or conduit may be coated with a corrosion resistant layer.
Even if the tubing coil is subject to oxidation, the effect of oxidation may be minimal, especially when compared to prior systems such as TSU 20 (
Another advantage of the present invention over the systems known in the art is that manufacturers may select two different materials for the two different components of the TSU: a casting material that has good high temperature properties and a low cost to cast, and a conduit material that has good high temperature and high pressure properties and is oxidation resistant. Manufacturers and designers may no longer be required to select a single material that is both oxidation resistant and has both high temperature and high pressure properties at potentially high cost.
Yet another advantage of the invention is two �levels� of pressure containment are provided. The first being provided by the conduit and the second being provided by the cast, which surrounds the conduit. Thus, if pressure containment of the conduit fails, the cast may function as a backup source of pressure containment.
The present invention may be used in many applications, one of which is illustrated in
The following discussion of TACAS system 900 is not intended to be a thorough explanation of the components of a TACAS, but rather an illustration of how a TSU according to the present invention can enhance the performance of a TACAS system. For a detailed description of a TACAS system, see commonly-assigned, co-pending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/361,728, filed Feb. 5, 2003, which is hereby incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.
As shown in
The hot gas emerging from TSU 909 may flow against the turbine rotor (not shown) of turbine 941, which may be any suitable type of turbine system (e.g., a radial-flow turbine). The heated compressed gas drives the turbine rotor, causing turbine 941 to drive electrical generator 942, which produces electric power and provides it to electrical output 950. Also shown in
In order for the compressed gas to be heated to a desired inlet temperatures, TSU 909 is heated to a predetermined temperature or range of temperatures. For example, in one embodiment, TSU 909 may be heated to about 1,300� F. TSU 909 may use an exhaustless (e.g., non-polluting) heating system, which is powered by electrical input 910. For example, TSU 909 may include an external or internal heating system, as discussed above. System 900 therefore provides the benefits of heating compressed air from pressure tank 923 before it is supplied to turbine 941, without producing the harmful emissions associated with combustion heating systems.
The heating system may heat and maintain
TSU 909 at a predetermined temperature or at a predetermined range of temperatures while system 900 is in a standby mode of operation (e.g., utility power is available). TACAS system 900 may also include control circuitry 920 which may be coupled to both TSU 909 and electrical input 910. Control circuitry 920 may include means for measuring the temperature of TSU 909. Control circuitry 920 may also include electric circuitry for controlling the temperature of TSU 909. Control circuitry 920 may control the temperature of TSU 909 by, for example, controlling the electric power provided to the heating system. This may be achieved by providing instructions to electrical input 910, such as instructions to activate, deactivate, increase or decrease the output of electrical input 910. Control circuitry 920, along with electrical input 910, may therefore be used to monitor and control the temperature of TSU 909.
Initially, during the beginning stages of power delivery, the temperature of the compressed gas exiting TSU 909 may be substantially higher than the desired turbine inlet temperature. Thus, it may be necessary to lower the temperature of the compressed gas before it is supplied to the turbine inlet. One way to control the temperature of the compressed gas being supplied to the turbine inlet is to use a bypass path fluid routing system which selectively controls the mass flow of heated and non-heated air supplied to the inlet of the turbine. The bypass path fluid routing system may include a path (not shown) that routes unheated gas through a path that bypasses TSU 909 and feeds into turbine 941. By controlling the portion of the total compressed gas flowing through the TSU and the bypass path, the ratio of heated to non-heated air provided to turbine 941 may be modified, thereby providing a method for controlling the temperature of the air being supplied to the turbine. As the temperature of the compressed gas provided by TSU 909 drops, the ratio of unheated compressed gas routed through the bypass path may decrease accordingly to maintain a desired turbine inlet temperature. A more detailed explanation of this bypass path architecture may be found, for example, in commonly assigned, co-pending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/943,294, filed Sep. 17, 2004, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
The above discussion in connection with
The above described embodiments of the present invention are presented for purposes of illustration and not of limitation, and the present invention is limited only by the claims which follow.

Lychees vs. Longans
Got some (more) questions for the experts! Even I know that lychees belong in the category of "the great ones" when it comes to fruit. How do the taste of longans compare? How do the trees compare? Are they easier to grow, more fruitful, less finicky? Can you keep them at a similar size? Would I be better off planting one lychee and one longan, instead of two lychees?
altough its a mater of taste, i think most people on this forum would say they prefer the taste of lychees to longans. I think the trees are pretty similar in their culture and you should have little difficulty getting either to grow well in florida. personally, id always grow an extra lychee tree over a longan- i think your best bet is to eat a bunch of lychees next season and decide whether you would like to have one tree of each or prefer two lychees (or extrely unlikely, two longans!) lychees are avilabl in south florida in late may early june and longans i believe ripen in july.
john- i think most of the people who have difficulty getting them to fruit live outside of florida or in northern florida. also some varities fruit more than others. mauritius lychee, which is my personal favorite, fruits pretty much every year without fail
Longans are less picky then Lychees when it comes to fruiting. Longans also have a little more cold tolerance. Lychees are the best tasting of the two, longans take a little more of an acquired taste (they are excellent in their own unique flavor).
Count me as another who prefers longans over lychees. I have the opportunity to eat them several months of the year. I like the crispiness longan pulp over that of lychees. I actually like both, but of the two, I'd pick a longan anytime. Also, longan is much easier to grow outside of Florida. Mine has been doing fine in 100+ F summer weather and low 30s currently.
Ahhh, the age old debate about lychee vs. longan. I am in the lychee tastes better camp, by a considerable margin. I have this ongoing arguement with a friend of mine. In support of his longan preference, he says that it takes a more experienced and distinguished palate to really appreciate longans. Lychess more or less club you over the head (err..maybe tongue would be a better allusion) while longans a more delicate, more spicy....etc......you get the idea. He cites the alleged fact that most Chinese fruit lovers prefer longan to lychee when push comes to shove. Not being Chinese, and having seen no polls on this, I am left wondering if this is, in fact, true. Any Chinese folks out there who can give us an opinion or observation on this point?
harry- i have heard this 'Chinese people prefer longan" allegation before, but not sure if I heard it from you or from my local Chinese lychee distributor.
personally, it is truly a mystery to me how lychees are not everyone's flat out favorite fruit and how mauritius are not everyone's favorite lychee variety.
john- here is a link to some very interesting lychee and longan videos on you tube posted by florida university (there are also some vids on other toprical fruit such as mango and carambola)
Here is a link that might be useful: lychee and longan vids
The longan reminds me of a really sweet honey dew melon. Personally I prefer lychee, but I think that's an artifact of my 'americanized' palate which prefers some acidity (longan has none). And, I'd try to plant early lychees and late longans to complement the mango season. (Fruits that mature during the height of mango season tend to get under eaten :-)
There are some longans that have a really strong musky aftertaste. I think the diamond river is one. I try to stay away from those.
Just about all the asians I know prefer Lychees over Longan. We typically only eat Longan when there are no Lychees left. I personally prefer Lychees over Longan but over the past several years, I have become more and more fond of Longan.
I really got turned onto Longan when I purchased some very large Longan from Lycheesonline.com. Their Longan are huge, about quarter size, with excellent flesh to seed ratio and extremely sweet. I believe they are growing the Kohala variety and I'm sure they do a lot of thinning to get the fruit to size up. I typically pass on the tiny dime-nickel sized Longan at the asian markets.

Singapore's mixed doubles pair Danny Bawa Chrisnanta-Vanessa Neo believe they have a chance to win gold at the Glasgow Commonwealth Games. - RAJES PAUL/ The Star
GLASGOW: Singapore's Danny Bawa Chrisnanta-Vanessa Neo can be a thorn in the flesh for Malaysia's Chan Peng Soon-Lai Pei Jing in the mixed doubles competition at the Emirates Arena.
The 27-year-old Vanessa believes she and Danny have a good chance to nail the gold in the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow this time.
Danny and Vanessa, who have been partners for three years, are the second seeds in the individual competition, which starts on July 30.
In the absence of Peng Soon's regular partner Goh Liu Ying, who is recovering from knee injuries, Vanessa said that the mixed doubles title is quite an open affair.
"It could be anyone's, really. There's the England pair (Chris Adcock-Gabrielle Adcock) and the Scots (Robert Blair-Imogen Bankier)," she said.
"Although Peng Soon is playing with a new partner (Pei Jing), they cannot be ruled out either."
The Singaporeans are expected to face Peng Soon-Pei Jing in the quarter-finals.
"Danny is an Indonesian and is a year younger than me. He received his citizenship in 2011 and, since then, we've been playing together," said Vanessa.
"We have won the Dutch Open Grand Prix Gold and several satellite titles.
"Our best was reaching the quarter-finals of the All-England as the eighth seed. It gave us a huge sense of accomplishment because it's not easy to qualify for the All-England.
"We have good chemistry and similar goals. Danny works really hard and our pace is similar.
"I returned home empty-handed from the last Games (in New Delhi) but, this time, there is a chance to win the gold medal and we'll do our best to grab it."
The top seeds in the mixed doubles are the husband-and-wife team of Chris-Gabrielle while Scotland's Blair-Bankier are the third seeds.

Answer #1goodguysdiesel from Good Guys Diesel, February 28, 2011, 13:23Journeyman
The following are possible causes of the malfunction:
* A short between the side-impact module-LF high circuits and low circuits.
* An open or a high resistance in the side-impact module-LF high circuits or low circuits.
* A short to ground or a short to voltage in the side-impact module-LF high circuits or low circuits.
* A malfunctioning side-impact module-LF connector
* A malfunctioning SDM connector
* A malfunctioning side-impact module-LF
* A malfunctioning SDM
Thoroughly inspect the wiring and the connectors. An incomplete inspection of the wiring and the connectors may result in a misdiagnosis, causing a part replacement with the reappearance of the malfunction.
The following can cause an intermittent condition:
* A short between the EFS signal and voltage circuits
* High or low resistance in the EFS signal and voltage circuits
* Inspect the EFS signal and voltage circuits carefully for cutting and/or chafing
* Verify that the correct EFS is installed in the vehicle

The total van der Waals force on the spider's feet is very strong, but it is the sum of many very small forces on each molecule. The researchers believe the spider lifts its leg so that the setules are lifted successively, not all at once, and it does not need to be very strong to do this. All you would have to do to lift a future kind of Post-it® note is peel it off slowly.
Here's an article from nature.com [nature.com] from 2000 that talks about gecko feet, and here's another [nature.com] from 2002 about how scientists have developed prototype adhesives based on what they learned from geckos. One of the articles even talks about experiments from 30 years ago, wherein researchers found that geckos do not stick to Teflon, which does not produce Van der Waals forces.
So while we may not have known that spiders use Van der Waals forces as well, we have known for years that animals have been using the force to stick to things.

PABLO GORONDI, Associated Press
The price of oil held above $101 a barrel Wednesday as the deadline for U.S. politicians to raise the government debt ceiling — and avoid a potentially catastrophic default — was only hours away.
By early afternoon in Europe, benchmark crude for November delivery was up 3 cents at $101.24 a barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract fell $1.20 to close at $101.21 on Tuesday.
The price of oil has swung back and forth for two weeks as lawmakers attempt to resolve an impasse that has left the government partially closed and the markets worried about the U.S. defaulting on its debt for the first time. The U.S. has to increase the amount of debt it can sell by Oct. 17.
On Wednesday, Democratic and Republican leaders of the Senate were optimistic that a last-minute bipartisan deal would be worked out and voted on in Congress, but the politicians' inability to reach an agreement sooner and the effects of the government shutdown on the economy was cause for concern.
"The uncertain economic conditions in the U.S. have caused further volatility and nervous trading in the oil market, with investors worrying about a slowdown in the US oil demand," said a report from Sucden Financial Research in London.
Government agencies including the Energy Information Administration, which keeps track of U.S. crude and fuel supplies, have stopped many services. The EIA's weekly report on supplies gives an indication about the strength of demand and often pushes the oil price up or down.
Also setting a ceiling over prices were talks on Iran's nuclear program in Geneva between the Islamic Republic and six major world powers.
A deal would likely end U.S.-led economic sanctions, which have greatly reduced Iran's oil exports over the past couple of years.
