After erasing bootcamp I decided to reinstall the mac osx because I got a solid question mark when I was loading up. The reinstall was completley succesful and maybe it's just me, but it seems the computer loads up slightly slower. What i mean is: When OSX is loading and under the apple you see the circle loading thing. the little thing that circles seems like it takes more revolutions for the osx to load than before. Sorry if this is confusing.

Ahh, that is incorrect sir. Usually doing a Fresh install of the OS usually cleans things up....Otherwise if you had to Reinstall the OS more then once, it would just get slower and slower... You can try Zap the PRAM to see if that makes a Difference. |

Another Good Utility to look into is Onyx. If that doesn't speed things up, just restart your computer and upon Booting up (After the Chimes) hold down Command-Option-P-R keys and let it go through 3 Start-up Chimes before releasing the Keys. Thats how you Zap the Pram. |

First off, reinstalling your OS is always a last-ditch option to fixing something in Mac OS. There are always alternatives that will correct any situation you may run into without the need for a reinstallation. Even Apple agrees:
As far as your computer running slower, I would think that is merely your own perception. I can't think of any logical reason as to why it would be running at any different speed. Counting revolutions of the startup wheel or counting 'bounces' in the Dock of a launching application are NOT credible or valuable measures for calculating anything. __________________________________________________ Posting and YOU|Forum Community Guidelines|The Apple Product Cycle|Forum Courtesy mac: a waterproof raincoat made of rubberized fabric MAC: a data communication protocol sub-layer, also known as the Media Access Control Mac: a brand name which covers several lines of personal computers designed, developed, and marketed by Apple Inc. |

Thanks guys, i'm a switcher hehehe. I have a problem now man. Last night I shut my computer down and then turned it back on. When it turned on i had all these vertical lines appear on my screen. The longer I wait the more lines there are, like pink,yellow,red, it's weird i tell ya. I had to flash the ram to get it to load right. Works fine now though, I wonder what caused that.

Yeah I remeber when I first switched to high speed internet...I was like WHOA!!!!! Then months later I was lie, this seems slower. I guess once you get used to something your perception changes. It just ends up feeling like normal but doesn't give you same feeling when it was new.

2002 Honda Accord • 135,000 miles
I have a 2002 honda accord 3.0 Litre. Have been having a problem with the check engine light coming on for about a year. It was diagnosed as a sensor in the gass tank. It would go on and off by itself. Also there has been an SRS warning light and the side airbag light that comes on and off. The car also intermittently would sputter and die when I would put it in gear. I would have to rev the engine and put it in gear then it ran fine. The car now does not start. It may or may not roll over when I start the car. The gass gauge goes from showing that there is gass to as if the car ignition is off. I am thinking that there is an electrical problem and leaning towards a bad computer. Any other idea's?

If the check light has been coming on there will be set fault codes, you may need a better quality scanner to read them, you can also test the code system is working by introducing a known code, unplug the TPI try a start and then do a read it should show that TPI as a fault, if so the system is working as it should.

ATF CIO says technology refresh will push mobile
In a technology overhaul that will replace hardware as old as five years, Rick Holgate, CIO at the Bureau for Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives said the agency will move towards mobiles devices, including tablets.
HHS pioneers responsive website design, shares out template
It seems like everyone has a smartphone or tablet device these days, and that new-found ubiquity has forced federal agencies to rethink their mobile sites specifically how they're laid out. Leading the charge in increasing mobile friendliness is the Health and Human Services Department (HHSD), which recently moved its own site to a repsonsive design template. And now it's sharing its code with any federal agency that wants it.
Rick Holgate, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives
Around federal information technology circles, Rick Holgate's name is roughly synonymous with mobile computing. As CIO of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, Holgate is an early and enthusiastic adopter of mobile technologies. But what's new eventually gets a little dated. Now ATF is about to undergo a pretty big technology refresh. Rick Holgate joined Tom Temin on the Federal Drive with an update.
Dick Stapleton, Health and Human Services Department
Everyone's on smartphones and tablets these days and lots of websites are becoming more mobile-friendly. This year, the Health and Human Services Department moved HHS.gov to a responsive design template. That lets users more easily read, pan and scroll on a website regardless of the viewing device. Now HHS is sharing its design code so other agencies can make their own websites more responsive. Dick Stapleton, deputy director of the HHS Digital Communications Division, joined Tom Temin on the Federal Drive to discuss the new move.

Mastering the contents of this manual will enable you to make pure 100% biodiesel from waste vegetable oils. This fuel can be used in any unmodified diesel powered vehicle or generator. Because biodiesel is a carbon-neutral fuel, the use of pure 100% biodiesel [B100] in a conventional diesel engine results in a substantial reduction of unburned hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, particulate matter and virtual elimination of sulfur oxides and sulfates. This manual explains how to make B100 biodiesel. B20 biodiesel is commonly sold at gas stations and is a 20% - 80% biodiesel/diesel blend. B20 should be correctly labled F80 (Fossil 80). 1 December 2006, US Department of Energy Biodiesel reduces emissions of carbon monoxide (CO) by approximately 50% and carbon dioxide by 78% on a net lifecycle basis because the carbon in biodiesel emissions is recycled from carbon that was already in the atmosphere, rather than being new carbon from petroleum that was sequestered from the earth's crust. 2 BIODIESEL STATION 3 2 Chapter Equipment List Water heater (old or new). Note: If you decide to build the processor with a used water heater, make sure it does not have substantial mineral buildup. Two HDPE 5 gallon carboys and an extra screw on lid. Methanol saftey container 55 gallon plastic container Parts List All plumbing should be 3/4 inch unless otherwise noted. All plumbing should be black iron threaded pipe. Galvanized is sometimes the only choice for certain fittings but is not preferred due to its zinc content. A. 3" pipe nipple B. ¾" x ¾" x ½" tee C. Close nipples- x 7 D. Ball valves (¾") x 5 E. Four way ¾" black pipe cross-fitting x 2 F. Bushing : ¾" x ½" x 2 G. ½" close nipple x 2 H. ½" ball valve I. ½" swing check valve 4 J. Nylon or Brass 90° thread-to-barb fitting (male thread end is ½" thread, hose barb end is 3/8" barb) and hose clamp. K. Length of 3/8" vinyl tubing – 3 to 4 feet L. Straight or 90° ½" threaded to clamp. 3/8" barbed nylon or brass fitting, and hose M. ¾" Hose Barb (Plastic, grey PVC, sometimes in irrigation departments for about 30 cents). N. 1 or 2 feet of clear vinyl tubing as a drain/filler tube. O. Union (¾") P. 1" x ¾" bushings x 2. Q. Length of Braided ¾" vinyl hose. Prepare to replace this hose every few months as it does deteriorate due to the heat. R. 90° elbows x 2 S. Length of Pipe nipple approx 12"- 18" (purchase correct size after assembling everything else) T. 2" long pipe nipple x 2 U. Automotive mechanical temperature gauge (not 12V electrical type). Such as a heavy-duty Sunpro from Pep-Boys. The numbers should have a high range range from 100F to 150F. V. Length of ¾" threaded black pipe, relative to water heater size to attach to pressure relief vent and direct fumes away from processor (if operating indoors). Add hose barb and threaded piping for additional length. W. Water heater strapping, or other earthquake strapping to secure the processor. You can also use webbing strapping. X. 1" Water Pump. The Clear Water Pump from Harbor Freight is cheap ($35) and works, but is slow. Dayton pumps ($300-$500) work very well. Y. 115 volt heating element. Z. Plumbers Teflon Tape (PTFE Thread Sealing Tape) and 12 x ¾"– 1 ½" hose clamps 5 6 7 3 Chapter Safety Precautions for Biodiesel Production Precautions There are two main dangerous ingredients used in Biodiesel production, Methanol and Lye. Methanol is by far the worst; it is calculated that as little as five teaspoons could kill a grown adult. Methanol can be inhaled, swallowed, or absorbed into the skin, and is carcinogenic. Lye is highly caustic, especially when mixed with any liquid, including methanol. Make sure your entire body is always covered when using lye. In biodiesel production, you want to act smart and take precautions to not harm yourself or others. Always work in a well-ventilated area or preferably outside. Safety Equipment Gloves: chemical-proof with long cuffs to fit over sleeves Apron Eye Protection Long Sleeves, Pants, and Boots. Do Not use any type of respirator or mask. Even though Methanol fumes are highly toxic, a mask or respirator will not protect you and may isolate the fumes you are breathing. The only device that works is a SCBA (SelfContained Breathing Apparatus), but these are expensive. Many just choose to work wisely, and not breathe the fumes. 8 Methanol Methanol is both a flammable and explosive material. The most important thing to remember is that Methanol should always be kept in a closed container and in a wellventilated building without any ignition devices such as: open flame, open electric motor housings, and/or combustible fuels. To keep Methanol fumes to a minimum, always keep in a sealed container such as the one pictured below. Your methanol supplier should have them. Always pump the Methanol through a series of connecting tubes so that it is not exposed to the air. Seek immediate medical attention if methanol and/or lye is ingested. If it comes in contact with the skin wash immediately with water and seek medical attention if necessary. Methanol Container Carboy Lye Lye will chemically burn skin. The best method of avoiding a burn is to always keep covered! Wear protective goggles, gloves, and clothing. Take off any jewelry, as the lye will corrode it. If you get lye on your skin flush the area with vinegar immediately to neutralize burn and then wash with soap and water. If the lye and/or methanol gets into your eye, go to the hospital immediately. 9 4 Chapter Constructing the Processor An old ELECTRIC hot water heater tank can be adapted to make a safe and inexpensive oil heater and processor. An HDPE 5 gallon carboy or similar receptacle provides a passive small-scale methanol-catalyst mixer, and an inexpensive centrifugal pump mixes the two liquids to enable the biodiesel reaction to take place. Prior to constructing a biodiesel processor, thought must be given to the desired elevation of the finished system. An elevated system is easier to access and maintain. Utilizing gravity (in particular elevating the caustic solution during mixing) may prove faster and more efficient than relying solely on the pump. The processor pictured in the introduction uses a small table as a stand. Stands are often made of wood, similar to the stand made for the wash tank (Chapter 11), incorporating a board on top for support. Stands may be painted or coated for durability. Metal stands can also be constructed and can be safer and longer lasting. New heaters range in price and size. The processor shown in this manual was constructed from a new 30 gallon heater. It is easy to transport and heats quickly due to its low capacity . Anything larger than 30 gallons will need to be secured into postion with access to electrical outlets. 10 Cutaway View of Water Heater NOTE: cutaway of a standard, double element electric water heater. On slender and tall units the top element needs to be removed for safety. It is sometimes preferable to use both elements on shorter, wider units. SAFETY NOTE: a full tank may weigh as much as 300 pounds. Shim and secure your processor prior to filling. SAFETY NOTE: when empty, the tanks can be manipulated by two people; they are glass lined and so care must be taken. NOTE: Rheem brand water heaters are the industry standard in water heaters they are common as are their replacement parts. 11 T eardown/ Build Up Once placement has been determined, the teardown of the water heater may begin. Allow yourself ample working space. This process will take place in two stages: 1. Electrical conversion (220V-115V) of the heating element, and thermostat if needed 2. Plumbing conversion of the heater tank. Electrical conversion (220V-115V) SAFETY NOTE: ALWAYS test yor work with a voltmeter! With the power off remove the top and bottom access panels (generally two or three Philips head screws per panel) and insulation. This will expose the existing electrical harness. Now remove the bottom panel and insulation. Disconnect the heating element at the base with an element socket wrench (1 ½") (available from plumbing supply houses). Remove the old (220V) heating element and 12 replace with the purchased(115V) element. Tighten the 115V element in place. Oil can leak from this hole so make sure your connection is tight. Plumbing Conversion Top View of Processor Any galvanized steel pipes and fittings must be replaced with black pipe fittings and pipe length. Biodiesel reacts when combined with galvanized steel. Secure all threaded fittings with TEFLON white tape. 13 Steps for Conversion: 1. Remove the supply dip tube and hardware from the tank, generally marked blue (for cold water), and hot water return red (for hot water). The temperature/pressure overflow, white, may be retained. 2. Replace the supply and return fittings with ¾" black pipe sections and two ¾" 90° elbow fittings followed by a black pipe section and one ball valve each followed by enough pipe to clear the tank and another 90° elbow, each facing down. Before you screw anything together wrap Teflon tape on all threaded ends so there is a nice tight fit. 3. With the tank empty, remove the old (generally plastic) drain valve and short pipe section (if fitted) which exposes the threaded tank penetration. 4. Prior to securing the pipe section wrap the threaded joints with Teflon tape and attach a female/female brass ball type valve and replace with ¾" (diameter) section of black pipe (the length and turn angles may be varied depending on your space requirement and manifold configuration) 5. Align ball valve for optimum operation, make sure there is enough clearance to open and close the valve, and tighten all fittings from the tank to the valve end. 6. Align and tape the threads on all male manifold fittings and valves. 7. Assemble the manifold finger-tight starting from the installed valve. Wrench all fittings into place where valve placement is necessary. 8. Manifold assembly: The completed manifold includes two vertical clear vinyl tubes running the height of the tank. The sight tube must be vertically aligned with the tank in order to insure accurate calibration of the system. The other section should be as plumb as possible. 9. Using the supplies list gather the manifold parts. Most black pipe section lengths will depend on the alignment of the tank and manifold. Don't forget to Teflon tape the threaded ends. 10. Where the manifold attaches to the ball valve on the bottom of the tank hand tighten and DON'T wrench the following: three or four (depending on the bushing and thermometer used): ¾" pipes of desired lengths, e.g.: 2", 3", etc. to the ¾" four way tee or "cross". Three part of the "cross" will receive a pipe piece, and the fourth the bushing/thermometer. 11. Calculate the desired length of threaded pipe fitting into a 90° elbow to accommodate the sight tube. 12. Tape the pipe on both ends. Fit a 90° elbow to one end. 13. Fit another short section, ball valve and hose nipple to that section. 14. Fit a bushing to the other end of the tee to receive the thermometer. 15. Wrench all connections tight 16. Fit the other ¾" cross with 1 bushing and 2 pipes, to receive a bushing. 17. On either side of the four-way cross fitting fit one: 1x female ¾" to 1" bushing (pump side) and 3/4 male to 5/8 male bushing (check valve side). 18. Tape and fit the check valve and 2x pipe sections, on either side of the valve, with the flow direction arrow facing towards the manifold. 14 19. Prepare a ball valve and 3/8"-¾" bushing for the methanol/lye solution inlet. The fill tube for the methanol/lye solution is best kept out of the way until needed. It is hose clamped in place when it is time to be added. 20. On the pump fill tube (top) attach the valve and fill hardware: 1. 1"-¾" bushing, 1. 3-way tee with 3 pipe sections wrenched tight, 2, ball valves, 2. ¾" pipes, 2. ball valves 1. 3 way ¾" tee. Attach the pump 21. Use hose clamps to secure a section of reinforced tubing from the manifold to cold inlet blue 22. Secure a measured and cut piece of tubing in place with two hose clamps directly to the ridged hose nipple forming the sight tube from the manifold to outlet red. 23. The last valve and corresponding hose barbed fitting can be secured at the terminus of the manifold. T ools: • 2 standard pipe type wrenches and/or channel lock type pliers • 2 standard screwdrivers. 1 slotted, 1 #2 Philips head for hose clamps • 2 adjustable crescent or "monkey" type wrenches 15 Installation of the Pigtail A UL rated three pronged 120V pigtail must be wired to the existing electrical harness. These are available at home centers and other retail outlets and come in several lengths. Longer is generally better. The cord needs to safely reach a grounded outlet. With the power off and the cord unplugged! Remove the knockout plate screws located on either the top or side of the heater. Strip approximatley 1/8 inch of insulation off the wires on the pigtail and push through the knockout to the tanks wiring. Match like colors and secure with wire caps/nuts. Several types of wire retention devices designed to keep the harness connections secure are commercially available. Twist and cinch ties also work well. Replace the knock out plate(s) Check the electrical system with a multimeter at both the thermostat and heating element. Make sure the multimeter is set to measure at least 12 volts. If the system has power, replace the panels and you're on your way. If not check your wiring and the heater element. Thermostat The thermostat controls the heating element and is usually located in the same compartment. If the heating element does not come on turn up the thermostat! 16 5 Chapter Priming the Pump The earth's atmosphere extends approximately 50 miles (80 Km.) above the earth, and rests on the mass of the earth with a weight equivalent to a layer of fresh water 34 feet (10 meters) deep at sea level. To remove air from a pump and produce suction the pump must develop enough head to equal the equivalent of 14.7 psi (pounds per square inch). Your pump may not need to be primed depending on the length of tubing, temperature and viscosity of liquid, or gravity and the power of the pump. The 1# Clearwater pump (pictured in Chapter 2) has a removable plug for priming. Remove the plug and fill with oil while the pump is running. This will displace the air and create a vacuum. Make sure the tube you are using to suck oil is actually in the oil! OPEN the pressure release valve at the top of the processor. If you use a centrifugal pump you can install a foot valve in the suction piping to insure the liquid will not drain from the pump casing and suction pipe. Keep in mind that these valves have a nasty habit of leaking. 17 6 Chapter Calibrating the Processor Supplies - jug that measures liters - 5 gallon plastic bucket - marker pen Method (First time only) The mixture of Methanol and Lye to be added directly into the heated and circulating oil depends on an accurate reading of the amount of oil in the processor. It is for this reason that you want to calibrate your processor. A 30-gallon water heater, processing 90 liters of oil will still leave enough empty space to add the Methanol/Lye mixture. To make sure you have an accurate measurement of the amount of oil in the processor you will first need to measure and add the oil in liter increments (metric system), marking the sight tube to calibrate it for future batches. Biodiesel is processed in litres because measurements are more accurate and the resulting biodiesel is cleaner. Step 1: Make a measuring bucket. Find a device that measures liters (such as a juice pitcher, etc.) and pour 10 liters of water into a bucket. Mark this level on the bucket, then add 10 more liters and mark it at 20 liters so that now you have a bucket that measures both 10 and 20 liters. Step 2: Pump Oil.* Fill the bucket with 20 liters of oil and pump 10 liters at a time of it into the processor using the pump on the processor. For every 10 liters pumped into the processor, replenish the bucket with 10 more liters of oil. A potential problem can be lack of suction with the pump. To avoid this never allow the pump to suck in air. Always keep the bucket at least 10 liters full to keep suction constant. Also note that elevating the bucket and maintaining a short distance between the pump and bucket will ensure an efficient suction process. 18 Step 3: Mark Calibration. After each 20 liters pumped into the processor tank, stop the pump and let the oil level settle. Once the level has settled record it with a permanent marker on the site tube (e.g. 20 L., 40 L, 60 L). Continue this process until the processor is filled to capacity. For future batches, the site tube will provide an accurate reading of the amount of oil being processed without needing to calculate the volume prior to pumping into the processor. Troubleshooting *Make sure that all valves are open except the methanol valve. *Make sure to periodically vent out the processor. If the pump is no longer taking in oil, it probably means that the pressure inside the processor is too great and you must vent the air through the pressure release valve at the top to allow more oil to be pumped in. Closing all the valves creates a vacuum! 19 7 Chapter Collecting Waste Grease Collecting grease requires patience and sometimes a strong constitution. It is also a way to form relationships and talk to people about what you are doing. Eventually you will develop your own system but this will get you started. Equipment 55-gallon hand-crank pump Long handled stovetop pan Funnel (the wider-mouthed, the better) Sealed containers (carboys, five gallon buckets, etc.) Long Stick! Recommended Accessories Work clothes and gloves. Eye and Face protection Boots Tarp Environmentally friendly degreaser Oil Selection Waste grease is often found behind local eateries in brown or green greasy looking dumpsters that inhabit a dark corner of the parking lot. Veggie oil dumpsters are often 20 equipped with a trap door, which look like prison bars. Asian and Japanese resturants cook more vegetableas and less meat so there are usually less free fatty acids (FFA) in their oil. It's best to perform a titration (see chapter nine) before you haul your oil home. For best results don't touch anything that titrates out over 5. An excess of FFA in the oil is bad for the reaction because it will impede the separation of the glycerol and produce soapy biodiesel. What to Look For Things to look for are color and consistency. The best oil resembles maple syrup, it has the same golden brown color and is not too thick. Water content can be tested by scooping a small sample and heating it above 100°C (212°F), if it stutters and bubbles water is in it. Once you're a veggie oil expert you will be able to discern the good from the ugly. Establishing Rapport with your Restaurant It is a good idea to establish rapport with the businesses you choose to pull your grease from. Owners may come to view your interaction as a mutually beneficial relationship rather than a parasitic one. They will also take more kindly to you if you explain what you are doing. You'll be amazed at how receptive people are to the subject of energy independence. Getting it Out of the Dumpster A 55-gallon drum hand-crank pump works well and can be picked up at Harbor Frieght for under $20. Fancier DC connect pumps can also be purchased for a higher price. Simply scooping the oil out with a long handled pan also works well. Use a long stick to test where the putrid gunk lies toward the bottom. Always try to take oil from about 3 inches below the surface. Insert the long end of the pump halfway into the grease, or scoop from the top to avoid trapping debris that has sunk to the bottom of the dumpster. Keep lots of rags handy. This is messy! 21 8 Chapter Filtering Waste Grease Before putting the grease in the processor, it must be filtered to get rid of particulate matter. Filtering grease can be accomplished by various methods that utilize time, price, electricity or gravity. It is best to filter the grease to under 3 microns. Because there are so many ways to filter grease, it is best to choose one that works best for you. Below are several methods for filtering grease, from the super cheap, slow and sustainable, to the faster, pricier energy sucker. The best way to filter grease is to filter in stages, scaling down gradually from 50, to 3 and to 1 micron. The slower you filter, the less chance of clogging difficulties. The Blue Jean Method For those who may have more time on their hands, less money in their pockets and more concern for re-use the Blue Jean method is the way to go. Simply take an old pair of Blue Jeans and sew the bottom of the legs shut. Cut two holes in the top of a barrel and stick the pant legs through. Pour the grease into the legs and wait. The Jeans will filter at least the bigger chunks out, but be prepared to wait a while. You will need to combine this process with another that has a finer filter. Following the Blue Jean tradition line a second pair of jeans with muslin to provide a finer filter. The Sock Filter Method For a small price, you can purchase a few sock filters available online (www.goldenfuelsystems.com). Sock filters vary in size from 200 microns down to even .5 microns and are very simple to use. Set a few of them in a vertical arrangement with a barrel underneath and collect the filtered oil in. This process also takes a while, so be prepared to wait. In general, you can make your filtering process faster by pre heating the oil to 80°F or 90°°F before filtering. 22 Cartridge Filter Pump For someone with less time on their hands and more money to spend a pump hookedup to standard car/truck filters work well. Don't run hot oil through the cartridge filter pump. Parts: 3 filters ranging from 50 - 3 microns with pressure gauged housings, 10 feet of ¾" inch automotive hose 1 foot of clear ¾" hose 8 hose clamps 1/2 amp industrial pump & 12V pigtail if not provided Ply wood, screws and bolts. Note: The smallest filter should be 3 or 5 microns. Donaldson Filters work well. Check the Yellow pages for filter suppliers in your area. 1) Build a wood housing for your filtering system (the size and shape may vary depending on the pump, filter size and personal preference.) 2) Bolt oil filter housing heads in a supporting horizontal or vertical arrangement so that the oil passes through the largest to the smallest filter. Be sure there is enough room to connect the filter housings with the ¾" hose. This step may be completed before the filter housing is bolted onto the filter box. 3) Screw on filters 5) Screw hose barbs to each end of the housing. Plumbers tape on the threads of the barbs will ensure a leak tight fit. 6) Secure pump into position, attach tubing between the pump outlet and the biggest filter 7) Connect the three filters with clear sight tube 8) Attach enough tubing to both the smallest filter outlet and the pump inlet to accommodate your needs. Note: A dimmer switch was added to this filter system because the industrial size pump was pushing to much pressure through the filters, including the debris. The switch enables control of the flow. The pressure gauges on the filter housing indicate particle build-up in the filters. 23 24 9 Chapter Titration Through titration, we can test the FFA (Free Fatty Acid) content in waste vegetable oil to determine whether or not the oil is suitable for making biodiesel. In the processing stage a second titration will be performed to determine precisely how much catalyst (lye) is needed for processing the veggie oil into biodiesel. Supplies: 1 bottle of phenol red indicator or phenolphthalein. Turmeric powder also performs the same function, and is non-toxic 1-gallon bottle of distilled water 1-clean, air-tight container to store .1% NaOH/water solution (lye/water) which will be used as the reference tester solution container of NaOH (lye) or KOH-Red Devil Lye isopropyl alcohol – at least 70% isopropyl rubbing alcohol, or 99% in the form of red bottle IsoHeet from auto parts stores 3 oral syringes-graduated in ml: one marked for oil, one for alcohol, and one for lye/water solution *IMPORTANT* only use syringes for their designated substance. Do not mix! one liter measuring container several small jars – one to use for titration, one for a sample of oil, and one for handling a small sample of .1% NaOH/water solution so as not to contaminate the reference tester solution rags to wipe out the jars in between titrations scale-either a triple beam or a homemade Dixie-cup scale to accurately measure the lye Steps: 1. Make a reference tester of 1% NaOH/water solution (to be used for multiple future titrations). Dissolve 1 gram of catalyst (lye or KOH) in 1 liter of distilled water. 25 Keep this container sealed tight. If you use NaOH (lye) as a catalyst, use the NaOH for the solution, and if you use KOH as a catalyst, use KOH for the solution. 2. Start a blank titration to ensure that the real titration only reads the FFAs instead of the acids in the isopropyl. This step will neutralize those acids. 3. First add 10 ml of isopropyl to a jar. 4. Add a few drops of phenolphthalein, phenol red, or a pinch of turmeric, and swirl until it becomes a yellowish color. 5. Add the lye/water reference solution drop by drop and keep swirling. 6. As soon as it turns completely clear/purple and maintains that color for more than a couple of seconds, stop. This will be the starting point for adding oil to the titration solution. 7. Mix exactly 1ml of oil into this blank titration solution with the oral syringe designated for oil. The liquid will now be yellow. 8. Now add more of the lye/water solution (in 1/4 ml increments), swirling the contents while adding the lye water. Keep accurate record of how many 1/4 ml increments are added until the solution turns a lavender or pink color that lasts for 30 seconds of swirling. 9. The number of 1/4ml increments added will indicate the titration value for the oil sample. For example: if the oil took 2-1/4ml to turn purple, this oil titrated at 2. Quality oil should not exceed a titration value of 3. Adding the Lye: The oil titration calculates the point at which the lye neutralizes the FFAs, thus each 1milileter of lye/water added corresponds to 1 gram of lye to be added for each liter of oil in the batch. Beware of adding over 3 grams per litre as you will have soapy biodiesel. To calculate how much lye is needed use the following formula: For NaOH: number of liters of oil x (5grams NaOH + titration results) For KOH: number of liters of oil x (7grams KOH + titration results) For Methanol: add 250mL methanol for every liter of lye/water? 26 Preparing the Methanol Lye Solution: When mixing lye and methanol, it is preferable to use a plastic carboy container. Make sure it has the "HDPE 2" mark on the botton, as other types of plastic carboys will degrade quickly. Get two containers with four threaded stoppers and a vent cap. Carboys have a second set of plugged, optional threads molded into the lid. Cut the plug out with a knife, and the exposed internal threads will fit a ¾" standard pipe fitting. Screw in a ¾" brass hose barb, secured with Teflon tape and attach the 3/8" vinyl tubing to this barb. Use this hose to transfer liquid securly To fill the carboy, first add methanol. Next, add the calculated amount of lye. Immediately close using the regular extra lid and gently swirl mixture every ten minutes for thirty mins. To ensure that the lye is completely dissolved, check the bottom of the carboy for any clumps. Your solution is ready to add to your processor once it has dissolved. When you are ready to make fuel, attach the lid with the barb to the carboy and attach the hose to your processor. Turn your pump on. Lift the carboy onto a shelf, stool or chair above the level of the mixing pump and let gravity feed it into the processor Caution: Methoxide is highly caustic. 200% proof ethanol may also be used in place of methanol however this process is more difficult and not recommended for beginners. See: www.green-trust.org/2000/biofuel/biodiesel_ethanol.htm 27 Methanol-Lye Conversion T able (Calculated at 20% Methanol per volume Oil) For 18% methanol mix, multiply methanol values by 0.9; for 22% multiply methanol values by 1.1. Working in litres/grams gives a more exact reaction. To covert to Liters, multiply methanol and lye quantities by 3.79. 28 Chapter 10 Processing the Oil From waste grease to an alternative fuel (Please reference picture for correct open/closure of valves for each step.) 1). Make sure the processor is unplugged. Connect a hose from your container of filtered grease to the nipple on the main valve (#4). Turn on the pump to pump the oil into the processor. [All valves open except #5] 2). Once the grease has been pumped into the processor, unplug the pump. Plug the processor into a power source to begin heating the oil. (While the oil is heating complete step 5.) 29 [Valve #7 open. All other valves closed.] 3). Monitor thermostat until the oil reaches 130ºF. Turn the processor off when it reaches this temperature. 4). Carefully open the main valve (#4) and obtain a 1ml sample of oil. Perform an accurate titration to determine the amount of lye and methanol needed for processing. (See Chapter 9.) 5). Mix calculated amounts of lye and methanol into the methanol carboy. Always follow appropriate safety measures when handling methanol and lye (See Chapter 3). 6). Connect the container's hose to the ½" barb methanol intake (#5) with a hose clamp tightened around the connection. Open the valve on top of the carboy. Elevate the carboy above the methanol valve (#5). Regulate the rate of methanol inflow by adjusting the ball valve. This process should be done gradually. You'll be able to tell that the methanol is mixing once the pump is on because there will be a slight color change in your mixing tube. Note: Usually a full cycle of circulation in the processor takes about 2 hours, this should be taken into consideration when gradually adding the methanol/lye mixture. [Opened valves 1,3,5,7. Closed valves 2,4,6.] 7). Plug in the pump to circulate methoxide in the processor tank (2 hours). [Opened valves 1,3,7. Closed valves 2,4,5,6.] Note: close valve #5 if the methanol/ lye mixture is completed within 2 hours 8). Unplug the pump and allow oil to separate overnight (approximately 8 – 12 hours). [All valves closed except for #1] 9). To empty the glycerin layer into a disposal receptacle, open the main valve (#4) The glycerin layer will be dark and the biodiesel golden. As soon as the golden biodiesel starts coming out of the processor, close the main valve. Note: Glycerin (glycerin, glycerol) is the main by-product of making biodiesel. The name comes from the Greek word glykys meaning sweet. It is a colorless, odorless, viscous, nontoxic liquid with a very sweet taste and has literally thousands of uses. That is, pure glycerin has thousands of uses -- the biodiesel by-product is crude (and it's not colorless, and it's not only glycerin) [Opened valves 1,4. Closed valves 2,3,5,6,7.] 10) Empty the biodiesel from the processor into the wash tank. 30 Chapter 11 Wash tank Construction The recommended method for washing biodiesel is the misting method. To construct a mister wash tank, the top of a 55-gallon barrel is lined with a mister hose that slowly mists water into the mixture. As the droplets sink they absorb residual methanol and water. Wash T Parts ank 55-gallon or 30-gallon plastic barrel with two threaded holes in the top. * Plumbing: All parts ¾" unless otherwise noted. All parts are PVC . 1 x Bushing 2" to ¾" 2 x 2" pipe nipples 31 2 x 90º elbows 2 x 3" pipe nipples 2 x Ball valves 2 x Hose barbs. The grey plastic ones work well. ¾" vinyl tubing, long enough to reach a bucket or drain. Standpipe. Total length ¼ height of washtank for ¾ biodiesel ¼ wash water. Outdoor patio mister kit. These are usually only seasonally available and tend to break, so stock up before winter! We are working on a replacement system. T ools JigSaw or Reciprocating saw Screw Driver and Drill Hammer Pliers Assembly details Turn the barrel upside down and remove the bottom using a jig or reciprocating saw. This is now the top of the washtank. If there are no openings in what is now the bottom of the tank, you will need to saw holes that correspond in size to the ¾" PVC pipe you will insert. Use a hole saw. Both pipe assemblies are the same out of the barrel. The only difference is the standpipe. All parts are constructed in the same fashion. Connect the 90° elbows to the two ball valves, connect these to the hose barbs and then connect to the clear vinyl tubing. The water drainpipe is connected through the hole with a bushing. The biodiesel pipe is connected through the hole without a bushing. Use a 2" nipple and screw into the threads inside each of the two barrel openings. You will need PVC cleaner and sealant to ensure a leak tight fit. Connect the mister to the top of the tank by drilling ¼" holes and poking the jets through to the inside of the barrel. Attach the tubing with tape or wire. 32 This apparatus sits on top of a wood frame. To build a wooden frame out of 2x4s construct a cube that measures 20"x20"x20". The barrel sits on top and the ball valves tuck in below. Casters can be added to the bottom of the washstand for mobility. 33 Chapter 12 Washing Biodiesel Washing removes any impurities used to catalyze the reaction. Since these impurities (methanol, lye, soaps and free glycerin) are soluble in water, washing biodiesel with water causes them to dissolve. Soap and methanol impurities gradually corrode fuel injection systems and hoses so it is important to remove these impurities. T Wash the Biodiesel o 1). Put the unwashed biodiesel in the wash tank. This process can be done manually or by using the pump. To use the pump close all valves besides #1 and #4, connect a hose from the main valve to the wash tank, then turn pump on. 2). Attach a hose to the mister and turn on the water. 3). Wash for approximately 5 hours. 4). Let it sit for 24 – 48 hours. Because water is heavier than biodiesel it passes through the biodiesel and sinks to the bottom of the washtank. Droplets efficiently pick up debris as they sink to the bottom. How to Know When the Washing is Complete The purity of the final biodiesel product can be checked by visual examination and by checking its pH (using pH paper or by titration). The pH of the biodiesel should be neutral (pH 7). Biodiesel should be clear, almost golden with no cloudiness, films, or particulates, and with a uniformly brownish tint. Heat tends to mask impurities in biodiesel, so a better measure of its purity may be determined at cooler temperatures. After washing, the biodiesel separates into two layers: biodiesel on top and wash water beneath. At this point, the wash water may be drained from the bottom of the wash tank and safely disposed of. Alternatively it my be stored and reused to wash future 34 batches of biodiesel (See Chapter 13). The washed biodiesel can now be left to dry before being used as fuel. Biodiesel is dry when it is completely translucent (when you can clearly see through it), with no trace of cloudiness or haziness. To dry your biodiesel let it sit for 24 hours in a container with the lid off. Wrap a piece of guaze or muslin around the top to prevent things getting in. Your biodiesel B100 is now ready to run in any unmodified diesel engine. 35 Chapter 13 Disposing of Waste Products The waste products produced when processing biodiesel are: 1) Glycerin 2) Wash Water These byproducts contain harmful methanol and lye dissolved in the waste mixture. Improper disposal of hazardous materials is both harmful and illegal, but also unsustainable. If we are to make decisions about the carbon we put into the atmosphere, we need to be aware of the pollutants that go into the ground. Methanol is a hazardous waste and should be disposed of at an approved waste facility. Check with local authorities to determine where and how these waste products should be disposed. If you will be making biodiesel frequently and have space to store the leftover wash water, the wash water can also be reused for future batches. This is known as the counter-current method, or one step back approach in which you reuse the wash water for biodiesel that is more soapy than the one it was previously used to wash. If possible, it is recommended that all wash water be used three or four times before disposal. An alternative for removing and reusing excess methanol from the waste products is to perform methanol recovery. Methanol recovery involves the use of a condenser or still system to distill the methanol from the processor through the vent at the top of the tank. This process requires energy to generate heat and the methanol is condensed through a copper coil. Reclaimed methanol can be reused in future biodiesel reactions. 36 Bibliography Addison, Kieth.

Customer holding this record owner 8 The id value (an 8 digit number) of the customer who has booked this. Note that for this application, you should assume that customers and CSRs know their customer ids. The system you are writing does not interact with these numbers, rather it simply records them. If this field is all blanks, the record is available for sale.

1)These length of fields are 'byte' type,they have to be convert other types(likes 'double rate' or'boolean smoking')? If not,what should I do convert the all strings to relational types?
But your file header probably indicates the length of each field.

With the price field - do you have to do any work at all with it? Is there any verification to be done on that field / any calculations? If not, then why not just leave it as a String? With the date field - do you have to do any calculations on it? If you have to only allow bookings within a certain timeframe, then you might have to convert this to one of the date classes so you can do comparisons.
Another future enhancement might be that we need to manage more tables simultaneously.
If we are reading the schema from the physical file, and treating each record as a String, then the same Data class code can be used unchanged for additional tables.
Originally posted by Andrew Monkhouse: Another future enhancement might be that we need to manage more tables simultaneously. Originally posted by Richard Jackson: The "more tables" means what?
Originally posted by Richard Jackson: when I add some getXX or setXX methods to the field class,I dont know if the above fields (or several fields,like date/smoking/rate) should be converted to suitable format
As for the date field - you may want to see if there are any instructions about whether you are allowed to accept bookings within a certain period of the start of room occupancy. If so, then you may have to convert the String representation of the date into a real date format so that you can do date comparisons.
Consider whether you need the fields in a format other than a String in order to complete the assignment.

The Penta Launcher fires up to five grenades that can be remotely triggered at just the right moment.
Penta is a Grenade launcher used by Corpus Penta Rangers. It launches ballistic grenades with primary fire and detonates all active grenades with the Zoom feature.
Damage listed in game is damage from physical grenade impact with a target. The explosion is significantly more powerful.
This weapon can be sold for 7,500.

This weapon deals primarily Blast damage.
Advantages :
- Grenades deal Impact damage when hitting an enemy.
- High AoE Damage.
- Heavy Caliber does not significantly reduce accuracy.[citation needed]
- Explosion can also cause procs.
- Less explosion damage results in less damage dealt to self in comparison to the Ogris. Although damage and elemental mods will apply full damage to the user.
- If three shots proc multi-shot from Split Chamber, there will be 6 grenades. (All six grenades do damage. Easily tested with Nyx's absorb and vertical launching grenades.)
Disadvantages :
- Explosion deals Blast damage, which cannot be changed into another type.
- Can only have five grenades out at once.
- When using the Split Chamber mod, the extra projectiles count towards the limit of five live grenades.
- Grenades that have stopped moving have no obvious visual or audio cue (but with "PhysX" enabled they have some sparks when come to complete rest).
- Grenades have slow projectile speed travel time and heavy arcing.
- Grenades have a high bouncing capability which makes it hard to stack on a desired spot.
- Increasing magazine capacity does not allow you to have more than 5 grenades out at once, and after detonating the maximum of 5 at once, you will have less to start in the magazine, forcing you to reload to shoot another 5.
- The explosion can damage the user. With high damage mods it is possible to down yourself in one shot if too close to the blast radius.
- Lowest max ammo of all primary weapons; tied with the Ogris.
Weapon LoadoutsEdit
- See Category:Penta Build to see how players mod this weapon.
- See Category:Penta Guides for guides on how to use this weapon effectively.
- For more general help with weapons, you may wish to browse Category:Weapon Guides.
- Using the Zoom button when Penta is in hand will detonate any grenades launched from the user.
- Zoom is possible only when there are no existing grenades.
- Detonations can still be triggered while the player is performing other actions.
- The Toggle Zoom function interferes with grenade detonation; zoom will need to be toggled twice between each detonation.
- Launching a grenade is silent to enemies, though explosions are noticeable.
- Grenades have no arming delay, and can be detonated instantly with the use of the Zoom button.
- Grenades can be bounced around corners, off walls, and over low obstacles.
- Grenades that bounce into enemies deal damage even when bouncing off of other enemies.
- Multiple impacts dealt by the same grenade are possible.
- Grenades do not bounce when striking water, coming to a dead stop instead. This allows perfect aiming for setting traps, but is ineffective with Undertow as drowning enemies do not take damage from external sources.
- The Arsenal interface used to label only the damage of the grenade on impact, but now labels the Impact damage of the projectile as well as the base Blast damage (350 base).
- 82.35% [350/(350+75)] of any elemental damage shown in the UI will be used for the AOE damage while the rest is for projectile damage.
- Increasing the Magazine size of the weapon does not increase the 5 grenade limit you can have out.
- Though the grenade explosion does not destroy rockets from Bombards, impacts by the grenades from very accurate (or sometimes lucky) shots can.
- When using Split Chamber, the second grenade is noticeable from the first (but only with Heavy Caliber at a reasonable rank), though they share the same trajectory and usually bounce the same direction too.
- Penta still uses Rifle Ammo Mutation instead of Sniper Ammo Mutation, while still using sniper ammo.
- Grenades fired from the Penta are lobbed in a heavy arc, allowing the player to kill enemies hiding behind cover much more easily, as the detonation happens upon external trigger.
- Standing at a greater height allows for the grenades to be lobbed and bounce further, allowing the user to see the grenades better, as well as eliminating the worry of self-damage.
- It is not recommended to use Shred as grenades can often go through the floor on some tilesets, making it impossible to bounce every time.
- Split Chamber, under random circumstances, can fire a total of six grenades. Provided multishot works on every shot, 2 shots puts out 4 grenades, allowing you to fire a third for the 5 total limit, but with 1 extra from the multishot.
- When using the Split Chamber in conjunction with Heavy Caliber, the decreased accuracy puts the grenades side-by-side and you can clearly see 6 total grenades out at once. This is most likely a bug due to Split Chamber, forcing an additional grenade to spawn on the last shot.
- Speed Trigger is an efficient way to quickly launch up to the grenade limit.
- Elemental mods such as Cryo Rounds and Hellfire are external from the main Blast damage, allowing the weapon to have 3 separate elemental combinations. If one creates a Blast damage combination, it will merely add itself to the main explosion damage.
- Be extra cautious and do not attempt to use in small areas. A single fully-modded grenade can usually kill any Warframe unless protected in some way.
- Players can detonate grenades in mid-air for an 'airburst' effect, which can deal headshot damage to targets below.
- The Penta is a very effective weapon when firing from a safe location on an Infested mission.
- The default color of the grenades can make it hard to see in the middle of a crowd of enemies or from their random bouncing. Change the energy color to suit certain tile sets (E.g. do not use bright white for Corpus Outpost missions).
- Be wary when installing Infected Clip or Malignant Force, as the Toxin damage from either mod can bypass Warframe shields and deal damage directly to health.
- As mentioned above, be cautious while firing the Penta when you are near water, as the grenades come to a dead stop when they hit water.
- Released in Update 11.3.0.
- This is the first weapon to have the Zoom capability replaced with a different function.
- Penta derives from the Greek prefix of "five", which makes sense as the grenade launcher utilizes a magazine of 5 grenades.
- This seems to be the first Corpus weapon to be named after Greek origin instead of Latin.
- Penta is the third weapon model that has a magazine that responds after firing. First being the Twin Gremlins, and the second is the Soma.
- Its model is known to be a non-static model, as the upper barrel shaft shifts when reloading.
- It seems the entire gun represents a mere skeletal structure, unlike most Corpus weaponry.
- Increasing the magazine size actually increases the visible grenades stored in the weapon, being the first weapon with this obvious visual ammunition increase.
- With 5 grenades in the weapon, there is a small gap between the fifth grenade and the bottom of the gun. With 6 grenades, there is no gap at all. With 8, the stack actually exceeds the bottom.
- The Penta is the first Corpus weapon to focus on explosive weaponry, utilizing the technology on Plasma grenades through a launch system. They, however, deal blast damage, which does not fit the Corpus theme.
- The grenades are flat and rectangular, which is odd, considering their ability to bounce.
- On the stats, it says the trigger is blank.
- This is one of the few weapons to have Reflective Textures, which were added circa Update 15. The other weapons appear to be the Sybaris, Quanta, Soma, Mutalist Quanta, Detron and the Opticor (Needs confirmation).
- Rarely a detonation will cause damage to you even if the grenade is well beyond the explosion radius. Attempts have been made to fix this issue, with varying degrees of success.
- In its Arsenal UI, it does not display its trigger function, though it functions as Semi-Auto.
- Occasionally, the flames emitted by the Penta can remain indefinitely if reloaded too frequently.

- Ogris, a rocket launcher with a charge function.

It is very important that we have access to safe, legal pregnancy termination services, whether it is emergency contraceptives right after the assault or an abortion service
Charon Asetoyer
Human life consists in mutual service. No grief, pain, misfortune, or broken heart, is excuse for cutting off one's life while any power of service remains. But when all usefulness is over, when one is assured of an unavoidable and imminent death, it is the simplest of human rights to choose a quick and easy death in place of a slow and horrible one.
Charlotte P. Gillman
Utility is the great idol of the age, to which all powers must do service and all talents swear allegiance.
Johann Friedrich Von Schiller
The greatest life one can have is of service. Give joy, happiness, bliss, laughter, wisdom, prosperity, love & light to others. By doing so, you tap into the Infinite Source within ensuring that you will never have to do without these "treasures" yourself!
Lateef Warnick
Nothing is more harmful to the service, than the neglect of discipline; for that discipline, more than numbers, gives one army superiority over another.
George Washington
The members who command the best service at your golf club either have the lowest handicaps or the highest bar bills
Born in iniquity and conceived in sin, the spirit of nationalism has never ceased to bend human institutions to the service of dissension and distress.
Thorstein Veblen
Perhaps the greatest social service that can be rendered by anybody to this country and to mankind is to bring up a family.
George Bernard Shaw
Teach this triple truth to all: A generous heart, kind speech, and a life of service and compassion are the things which renew humanity.
The life of a man consists not in seeing visions and in dreaming dreams, but in active charity and in willing service
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
