I think he's right, actually. I suspect if Cabrera's career ended today he'd eventually get into the Hall.2. Bote Man Posted: February 16, 2013 at 11:25 AM (#4370667)
Don't we have to wait for the inevitable PED he-said-she-said to play out before we crown him?3. GEB4000 Posted: February 16, 2013 at 12:15 PM (#4370697)
Cabrera is not Albert Pujols or a young Frank Thomas. He needs a few more years. By the end of his current contract he should be a hall of famer.4. Harveys Wallbangers Posted: February 16, 2013 at 01:28 PM (#4370719)
i think al has a good case. argument as best hitter in baseball for an extended time. led league in various hitting categories. mvp and multiple top 5 finishes. key player on two pennant winners and one championship team. everybody likes him.5. Never Give an Inge (Dave) Posted: February 16, 2013 at 01:34 PM (#4370723)
yeah, i could see it happening.
I agree with #3. Both from a value and a perception standpoint he's still a few seasons away. I think he'll get there but his numbers look very similar to Vlad Guerrero's when the latter was 30 or 31:
Cabrera at 29: 1512 G, .318/.395/.561/.956, 151 OPS+, 44.4 WAR, 1 MVP
Guerrero at 30: 1301 G, .324/.391/.587/.977, 150 OPS+, 43.1 WAR, 1 MVP
Guerrero at 31: 1457 G, .325/.390/.583/.972, 149 OPS+, 46.9 WAR, 1 MVP
I suspect most of us felt Guerrero was a future HOFer at that point, but he didn't age very well and he's probably on the borderline now.
#5: Yes, but if he suddenly drops off a cliff in 2013 and retires in 2016 after four mediocre-to-poor seasons--far from unheard of for a fat guy as he crosses 30, by the way--his HOF chances would very likely be worse than if his career was ended right now by a catastrophic injury. And either way, the Triple Crown is going to give his candidacy a huge boost with the voters.7. Thok Posted: February 16, 2013 at 02:33 PM (#4370744)
It's a pointless argument, of course. Welcome to the offseason!
And either way, the Triple Crown is going to give his candidacy a huge boost with the voters.
I've said this before, but I could almost see some traditionalists voting for Cabrera to enter the Hall of Fame because they would falsely think it shows their superiority to saber-types who "obviously" don't value Cabrera and wouldn't vote for him.
If he puts up Dale Murphy's post-cliff (without era adjustment) and then calls it a career, he ends up with 2358 hits, 409 HR, a 293/369/512 slash line with an OPS+ of about 135 with a bit more than half his games at 3B and a WAR of about 46. I guess that's borderline, but he's 2 years younger than Murphy was when he hit the wall, and if you give him Murphy's age 29 and 30 seasons in addition to the decline, you're now talking about 2688 hits, 482 HR, and more like 57 WAR. Is there anyone else who's a better bet to make the HOF who hasn't turned 30 yet?9. Walt Davis Posted: February 16, 2013 at 06:29 PM (#4370829)
He's almost certainly going to get there but it's still just 6500 PA.10. RMc's Yelling Mob of Hackmen Posted: February 16, 2013 at 07:04 PM (#4370840)
Bagwell 23-32: 305/417/552, 159 OPS+, >1000 R, >1000 RBI, 310 HR, 1 MVP, 60 WAR (56 oWAR vs. Cab 51 oWAR)
Bagwell will make it eventually but he's not having an easy time of it.
Cabrera's career to date is also quite similar to Berkman's first 6500 PA (44 WAR, 147 OPS+), Giambi (43 WAR, 149 OPS+) or Helton (52 WAR, 144 OPS+). Cabrera's HoF chances are a lot better because he's 4 years younger than those guys were and is quite likely to be sitting on 60 WAR by the time his age 33 season is finished. Starting with Bonds in 1986, there have been 11 players (not incl Cabrera) in that time with at least 40 WAR and a 140 OPS+ in their first 10 years (roughly 6000-6700 PA). Even ignoring roids, only 7 of those 11 would make the HoF (W Clark already passed over, I don't like Giambi, Berkman or Helton's chances). By the way, my criteria have missed Vlad by 6 PA, so he's a 12th ... I think he'll be borderline but, if forced to choose, I'd guess he'll get in.
HoF voters aren't rational enough to make those connections of course, so Cabrera would probably sail right in.
Cabrera's MVP and Triple Crown last season were huge for HOF voters. Just imagine if the Tigers had made the World Series!11. Pat Rapper's Delight (as quoted on MLB Network) Posted: February 16, 2013 at 09:04 PM (#4370859)
What? Oh, right.
Not a Hall of Famer to me until Goose Gossage says he is.12. Booey Posted: February 16, 2013 at 09:15 PM (#4370861)
No Manny comparisons yet? Miggy's always seemed to me like the second coming of Ramirez, only without the roids and general dumbassery.13. shoewizard Posted: February 16, 2013 at 09:40 PM (#4370864)
everybody likes him
Harvey's this is not universal really. Hopefully he has the drinking thing completely under control now, but when he was drinking, he was a pretty mean drunk. I won't regale you with "insider" details. But it's not much of a secret in baseball. Like I said, hopefully he has the demon under control.
He's on pace to end up as the best Venezuelan player in MLB history (and so is Felix Hernandez). Right now, the best is probably Abreu or Santana. I'm a little surprised that they haven't had a clear-cut HOFer yet, although Aparicio's in.15. Walt Davis Posted: February 16, 2013 at 10:31 PM (#4370885)
Cabrera's MVP and Triple Crown last season were huge for HOF voters.16. jyjjy Posted: February 16, 2013 at 10:32 PM (#4370889)
Sure and if he were to die in a plane crash taking aid to some natural disaster, all his current professional admiration, plus immediately filling in the missing years, plus the appreciation for how he died would probably be more than enough to get him over the line.
If he has a career-ending injury then the writers have 5 years to get over their man crush ... he still might sail in a la Puckett.
But if he puts up three years of "crap" starting this season, he's a guy with 8000 PA, maybe 400 HR who's now disappointing.
It happened to Dale Murphy so it can happen to Cabrera. It happened to Orlando Cepeda too. It happened to Juan Gone -- yes, we know he wasn't HoF-worthy but he had 2 MVPs, more HR and about the same number of RBI as Cabrera through 29. It might happen to Vlad. It looks like it's happening to Walker but he's probably not similar enough.
You could argue it happened to Dick Allen but there was a lot of other stuff going on there. You could argue it happened to Santo but he never won the MVP. I often wonder if it would have happened to Banks if he hadn't been able to hang on as long as he did.
There's very little chance of any of those scenarios coming to pass of course.
I'm certain I read this exact debate on here in the last month or two. Consensus was not quite yet.17. Walt Davis Posted: February 17, 2013 at 02:17 AM (#4370932)
Others will say if Kaline thinks so, it must be true.18. Harveys Wallbangers Posted: February 17, 2013 at 05:17 AM (#4370938)
I ain't agreeing to this until I know where Kaline stands on Morris, Trammell and Whitaker.
shoe19. Hack Wilson Posted: February 17, 2013 at 06:38 AM (#4370940)
when i am writing 'everybody likes him if you have one end of the meter is vicente padilla and the other end is al kaline beloved miguel is well over the half way mark toward kaline.
and baseball people don't give a sh8t about guys who drink. that may bother folks but it's true.
baseball people don't give a sh8t about guys who drink.
I'll drink to that.
Although I had a discussion at work yesterday (in Chicago, not Cincinnati) as to who should have a lifetime ban, and DUI Grace won unanimously-but we don't vote for the Hall.
everybody likes him.
"Let's go outside, I have a Land Rover and I'll get my click clack."
Others will say if Kaline thinks so, it must be true.
I ain't agreeing to this until I know where Kaline stands on Morris, Trammell and Whitaker.
Or on Kirk Gibson, Norm Cash and Harvey Kuenn. Kuenn struck fear into the hearts of every Brewers' fan I've known when they saw him hobbling out to the pitcher's mound.
IIRC Kaline is OTR as saying Morris is a borderline no and Trammell and Whitaker should both definitely be in. I don't know his stand on the Wallbanger's manager. Cash was a HOF locker room presence and Gibson is a HOF asshat. Ask Bauer or Upton (Or any of dozens of ex-Tigers and/or Dodgers).23. Harveys Wallbangers Posted: February 17, 2013 at 04:02 PM (#4371089)
I don't know his stand on the Wallbanger's manager.24. alilisd Posted: February 17, 2013 at 07:37 PM (#4371146)
do you mean harvey kuenn?
@5: Not getting the Vlad at two and three years older comparison. Why not use other players through 29? As a hitter only, not saying he's the same baseball player, he's a dead ringer for Frank Robinson. Sure he may fall off a cliff or suffer a career ending injury, but a normal career arc from here on out gives him HOF numbers for a corner IF. I don't think enough HOF voters are gong o penalize him for being a poor defender and base runner if he ends up with 500+ HR and 2B, around 1500 runs and well over 1500 RBI, and quite a few hits as well.

1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to the in situ removal of contaminants from subsurface soil and groundwater by the use of a pressure extraction process.
2. Description of Prior Art
Underground soil and water contamination is a serious problem, especially when the contamination can affect underground aquifers that are used for drinking water.
A typical underground soil structure of the type that is readily susceptible to subsurface contamination comprises a porous, unsaturated upper soil layer, called the "vadose zone", which extends downward from the surface of the ground. The vadose zone is often positioned over a layer of water-saturated soil, wherein the water and soil are called a "water-saturated zone". This in turn typically rests on a base of low-permeability material such as clay or bed rock. The base is also called an "aquitard". The water and soil volume encompassed in a zone of water-saturated soil is called a "groundwater unit" and the water in the saturated soil is called "groundwater". The top of the groundwater unit adjacent the vadose zone is called the "groundwater surface" or "water table". A groundwater unit that is sufficiently large to provide a source of drinking water is commonly referred to as a "aquifer". The area of the vadose zone immediately above the groundwater surface is called the "capillary fringe". This is an area of increased water concentration in comparison with the upper regions of the vadose zone.
Vapor and liquid pressure conditions underneath the surface of the ground are similar to those above ground, with underground soil typically acting as a porous framework that restrains but does not prevent vapor and liquid flow. Underground soil does not exert a substantial compressive force on underground vapors and liquids. The air or vapor pressure at the upper surface of a groundwater unit is approximately atmospheric pressure, which is zero psig or approximately 14.7 psia at sea level. Pressure levels increase with depth below the groundwater surface in substantially the same way as hydraulic pressure increases in relation to depth in any body of water.
Underground water usually tends to flow in a particular direction, which is referred to as "downgradient" or "down slope". This is comparable to "downstream" flow for surface water. A downgradient flow of contaminated groundwater causes contaminants associated with the water to be spread to areas other than the area of the initial spill. When the downgradient flow leads to fresh water wells that provide drinking water, contamination of population centers can result.
A number of substances, including organic compounds and inorganic compounds such as dissolved metals, can cause contamination. One of the more common groups of chemicals that can cause toxic contamination is called "volatile organic compounds" or VOC's. These include petroleum hydrocarbons (e.g., gasoline and other fuels) and chlorinated and hydrogenated aliphatics (e.g., solvents, degreasing agents and cleaning solutions). VOC's and other contaminants spilled on the surface of the ground tend to migrate downwardly through the soil under the influence of gravity and infiltration of water until the contaminants degrade or dissipate or until they come in contact with the groundwater surface. Petroleum hydrocarbons, which are generally of lower density than water, tend to spread out or float on the groundwater surface or become dissolved in the upper regions of the groundwater. Non-aqueous phase contaminants floating on groundwater are called "free product". VOC's and other contaminants that have a higher density than water, such as many chlorinated and hydrogenated aliphatics, tend to sink in the groundwater, becoming dissipated or dissolved in the groundwater as they penetrate through the groundwater.
VOC's and other contaminants contaminate the ground in several ways. They become sorbed on or in the grains of soil they contact; they are held in the soil structure in the voids between the grains of soil; they volatize and are held in the soil structure in vapor form; they dissolve in the groundwater; and they float on the groundwater or sink in the groundwater.
As additional fresh water infiltrates down through the soil from the surface of the ground, contaminants that had been suspended in the soil structure are contacted by the water and gradually become dissolved or entrained in the water. This provides a continuing and persistent source of contamination. Accordingly, it is desirable to remediate contamination in the vadose zone as well as on or in the groundwater.
A number of techniques have been used for removal of subsurface soil contaminants and for remediation of the affected soil and groundwater. One technique is excavation of the contaminated site and removal and treatment of the affected soil. This, however, can be extremely costly or infeasible with increasing depths below grade surface.
A number of techniques are used to treat the soil or groundwater in place (in situ). One method includes vacuum extraction of free product contaminants floating on the groundwater surface. Vacuum extraction techniques also are used to volatize contaminants and remove vapors from the vadose zone soil structure above the groundwater.
Vacuum extraction processes which reduce the soil vapor pressure in proximity to the groundwater surface have been shown to cause upwelling of the groundwater surface proportional to the level of vacuum applied. The upwelling frequently saturates vadose zone and capillary zone soils, and makes that submerged area less accessible to volatilization and aerobic degradation of contaminants.
A technique known as "sparging" is frequently used in conjunction with soil vacuum extraction and involves injecting oxygen-containing gas below the groundwater surface and vacuum extraction of gas from vadose zone soils.
Another contamination removal process that has had some success employs vacuum extraction for removal of volatile contaminants from the vadose zone and contaminated groundwater. One system employing this process employs a high-vacuum extraction well comprising a perforated outer well casing that extends below the groundwater surface and a high-vacuum interior pipe that draws liquid and vapor into the outer casing from above and below the groundwater surface and expels the liquid and vapor by vacuum extraction out of the inner pipe. This process has been commercialized by Xerox Corporation.
There are some drawbacks to this system. The use of a high level of vacuum to extract vapors from the vadose zone and from the capillary fringe creates a reduced pressure zone outside of the well casing above the groundwater surface. This reduced pressure can change the contours of the groundwater surface adjacent the well casing in the manner described above for vapor vacuum extraction systems. The vacuum extraction of groundwater may depress the groundwater surface in the immediate proximity to the well casing, but the reduced pressure in the vadose zone above the groundwater surface at least partially offsets this effect by urging the groundwater upwardly. There is a concern that the vacuum that induces upwelling could, under some circumstances, exceed the depression effect caused by groundwater extraction, in which case the groundwater would actually rise to form a raised collar or bulge in the groundwater surface around the well casing (see FIG. 3). The outer surface of a raised collar would slope away from the well casing and would thus urge free product floating on the groundwater outside of the collar to flow away from the extraction well. Raising the groundwater level also submerges an area of the vadose zone and capillary fringe and makes that submerged area less accessible to volatilization of contaminants.
An object of the present invention is to provide a better method for in situ removal of subsurface contaminants.
The present invention is a more effective process for removal, including extraction and degradation, of underground contaminants from a soil area that includes a subsurface groundwater unit and a vadose zone above the groundwater unit. The present invention comprises providing a well that extends downwardly from grade surface to below the groundwater surface, the well including an exterior pipe with fluid permeable openings therein at a lower portion that extends below the normal groundwater surface; providing an interior pipe inside the exterior pipe, the interior pipe having an inlet opening at a lower end below the normal groundwater surface; introducing gas in the exterior pipe, at a pressure that is sufficient to create a gas communication between the exterior and interior pipes through the inlet at the lower end of the interior pipe; maintaining a gas flow downwardly at a non-vacuum pressure in the exterior pipe and then upwardly in the interior pipe such that gas is not withdrawn from the vadose zone into the exterior pipe; and maintaining a gas pressure differential between the exterior and interior pipes that induces groundwater to flow into the exterior pipe adjacent the lower end of the interior pipe and thereafter be extracted by the gas flowing into the interior pipe.
After an initial extraction of high-concentration contaminants with a gas flow at a pressure as low as atmospheric pressure, pressure is increased in the exterior pipe. The pressurized gas introduced into the well flows outwardly into the unsaturated soil and causes the soil to be permeated with oxygen-containing gas. The pressurized gas also augments the effect of groundwater removal in depressing the groundwater surface for a wide area around the well, creating a larger unsaturated zone or vadose zone for volatilization and also creating a downwardly sloping groundwater surface leading toward the lower portion of the well. Liquid contaminants thus flow toward the well under the influence of gravity. The outward flow of oxygenated gas into the enlarged subsurface area of unsaturated soil promotes aerobic decomposition of contaminants while at the same time serving to vaporize volatile components of the contaminants. The vaporized components are typically degraded in situ by indigenous soil microorganisms, or can be removed by one or a combination of the interior pipe, by a separate upper section of the exterior pipe, or by separate vent wells spaced apart from the pressure extraction well. Gas flow, at pressure, through the soil also serves to dislodge contaminants trapped in the soil structure and increase the soil permeability.
Components which are removed from the well by the pressure extraction process are separated and treated to remove contaminants from the air and water. The treated gas can then be reintroduced as pressurized gas in the exterior pipe of the well or discharged to atmosphere, and decontaminated water can be used, released to the groundwater or to a surface water body.
These and other features and advantages of the present invention are described in more detail in connection with a preferred embodiment of the present invention which is described below and shown in the appended drawings.

Referring now to the drawings, a system 10 constructed for the purpose of treating in situ underground contaminated soil 12 comprises at least one pressure extraction well 14 located in an area of contaminated soil. The present invention is effective on a number of contaminants, including organic compounds and dissolved metals. The process is especially effective in removal of volatile organic compounds (VOC's) which tend to float on the groundwater surface or are dissolved in the groundwater and are subject at least in part to vaporization for removal of the components from subsurface soils. The present invention can also employ separated vent wells 16 employing vertical vent pipes as well as vent wells 18 employing horizontal vents 104 (see FIG. 4). A source of contamination 24 is indicated schematically above the treatment area.
Referring to FIG. 2, pressure extraction well 14 comprises an exterior pipe 26 and an interior pipe 28. The exterior pipe is installed in a borehole 33, which may be backfilled with granular media 35. Only a portion of the granular media is shown in FIG. 2. Generally, the backfill media fills the bore hole. Exterior pipe 26 has a plurality of gas and liquid-permeable openings 30 in the exterior surface of the exterior pipe extending upwardly from the bottom thereof. The bottom of the pipe is enclosed with a solid or screened cap 32. The permeable openings 30 desirably are circumferentially extending slots in the exterior portion of the pipe and spaced axially along the pipe. The slots should be sufficiently small to prevent infiltration of substantial amounts of soil or granular backfill media into the pipe, although the positive pressure applied to the interior of the exterior pipe will minimize the potential for soil infiltration into the pipe. Desirably the slots of the openings 30 should be between 0.005" and 0.05" in width and preferably 0.01".
Openings 30 in the lower portion of exterior pipe 26 extend from the bottom of the pipe upwardly to a position preferably near or above the normal or static groundwater surface prior to application of pressure to the pipe. The openings should extend high enough so that gas will be injected at least in part into the enlarged vadose zone that is created around the well as a result of groundwater extraction and gas injection. The openings preferably do not extend a large distance above the groundwater surface. Otherwise, at least in certain soil conditions, there can be excessive gas flow into the vadose zone. This can reduce excessively the pressure in the exterior pipe and the amount of air available to flow up the interior pipe.
If desired, the quantity of usable openings can be adjusted by a blocking device 25 shown in FIG. 2, which comprises a C-shaped sleeve slidably mounted in the exterior pipe. The sleeve can be connected to an adjustment rod that extends near the surface of the ground, where the rod can be manipulated to lower the sleeve to block selected openings. Blocking devices of this type and other types of blocking devices are conventional.
The lower end of the pipe should extend into the groundwater. The specific depth of penetration varies depending upon the depth of penetration of contaminants into the groundwater. This depth could be as little as one foot below the normal groundwater surface for contaminants that are contained in the uppermost regions of the groundwater; alternatively the depth could be as great as one hundred (100) feet or possibly more for contaminants that sink in the groundwater. Exterior pipe 26 is desirably formed of polyvinylchloride (PVC), with a nominal inside diameter of 4 or 6 inches in the preferred practice of the present invention. Other types of pipe, such as steel, will work.
Interior pipe 28 extends downwardly through the interior of exterior pipe 26 and terminates at an inlet formed by an open lower end 34 positioned below the normal groundwater surface and above the bottom of the exterior pipe. In the preferred practice of the present invention, interior pipe 28 is a PVC pipe and has a nominal inside diameter of one inch to attain conveying velocity.
The upper end of exterior pipe 26 is fitted with a sealed cap 36, with interior pipe 28 being welded in an opening 38 in the cap. A pressure gauge 40 at the upper end of the exterior pipe measures pressure at that location, and an adjustable valve 42 in the outlet of interior pipe 28 is adjustable to vary the back-pressure in pipe 28. A pressurized air conduit 44 for return air or other pressurized gas leads to an inlet 46 in the upper portion of exterior pipe 26. An adjustable valve 48 is used to vary the gas pressure and gas flow rate inside exterior pipe 26.
In the practice of the present invention, the air pressure at inlet 46 of exterior pipe 26 is 0 to 40 psig and preferably 0 to 20 psig. The pressure should be less than or approximating the hydraulic head pressure present in the groundwater unit adjacent to the exterior pipe at the level of the interior pipe inlet. For a typical well that extends about ten feet below the groundwater surface, an exterior pipe pressure of 0 to 4 psig is desired. The pressure of the air in the exterior pipe at the position of the openings 30 adjacent the vadose zone (either the original vadose zone or the enlarged vadose zone due to pressure depression of the groundwater level to form a cone of depression adjacent the exterior pipe) should be sufficient that the gas pressure inside the pipe at least equals, and preferably exceeds the soil gas pressure outside the pipe, so that the gas permeates the soil and vents the soil with oxygenated gas. Groundwater which surrounds the exterior pipe openings 30 is under a hydraulic pressure head corresponding to approximately one psig for every 2.303 feet of liquid depth. When the gas pressure inside the exterior pipe 26 exceeds the hydraulic head pressure of a specific groundwater depth, water will not enter the exterior pipe openings 30 at that depth. Water which surrounds the exterior pipe openings beneath that depth will possess sufficient pressure to infiltrate into the exterior pipe. In the present invention, to allow liquid withdrawal through the interior pipe, the gas pressure in the exterior pipe below the groundwater level is maintained at a low enough level that it will not prevent the water in the saturated soil from infiltrating the pipe openings 30 adjacent to the inlet 34 to the interior pipe. The pressure inside the interior pipe 28 is less than that inside the exterior pipe 26. Thus, gas and liquid can pass from exterior pipe to the interior pipe. As the gas exits the exterior pipe through the inlet opening 34 in interior pipe 28, the gas flows rapidly over the surface of the liquid 45 adjacent inlet 34, as shown in FIG. 2. This gas entrains the liquid in particles or droplets into the interior pipe 28. The gas carries the liquid droplets through valve 42 at the top of the inlet pipe.
Referring to FIG. 1 again, liquid (water and any free product) and vapor extracted through outlet 50 is conveyed to an air/water separator 52 where the liquid and gas are separated. The liquid is then transmitted through conduit 54 to a water treatment system 56 of conventional design wherein contaminants are removed from the water and the water is returned via conduit 58 to a suitable use or disposal destination. The water can either be used, reintroduced to the groundwater system, or disposed in a surface water body.
Gas separated from the liquid in separator 52 is conveyed by conduit 60 to a gas treatment system 62 of conventional design, wherein volatized contaminants are removed from the gas. Treated gas is conveyed from the treatment system by conduit 64 and is either discharged to atmosphere through a vent 66 controlled by valve 67 or is directed by a conduit 68 that returns the gas to pipe 44 which leads to the exterior pipe of the pressure extraction well. A blower 70 increases the pressure of the return air and can supplement the return air with fresh air through a conduit 72 controlled by valve 75. Adjustments to the blower or to valves 42, 48, 67, and 75 can be made to achieve the proper oxygen concentration, proper interior pipe pressure and pressure differential between the interior and the exterior pipes in order to provide the proper pressure and fluid and air discharge in the present invention.
The pressure in exterior pipe 26 should be at least atmospheric pressure or slightly greater than soil gas pressure at the vadose zone openings 30 in the exterior pipe. The pressure could be as high as 20 to 40 psig at this position in the pipe. The selection of pressure depends on the soil condition and depth of well necessary at the site for contaminant remediation, as discussed below. The pressure differential between the exterior and interior pipes adjacent valves 42 and 48 should be as low as possible, preferably one psig or lower. The pressure differential could be as high as 40 psig.
In operation, the extraction well is first established to a level below the groundwater surface. Before the extraction operation is commenced, hydraulic pressure in the groundwater causes water to infiltrate the exterior pipe and cover the inlet to the interior pipe. At start up, the pressure in the exterior pipe is first raised to the point where the water covering the inlet of the interior pipe is expelled and gas communication and flow is established between the exterior and interior pipes. Once gas communication is established the gas pressure drops as gas flows from the exterior pipe into the interior pipe. Once gas flow is established, it is generally desirable to first operate the system at a lower pressure, such as atmospheric pressure, in order to maximize removal of high-concentration liquid contaminants near the groundwater surface. The lower pressure in the exterior pipe causes a higher rate of liquid infiltration into the exterior pipe resulting from hydraulic head pressure. The initial pressure desirably is atmospheric pressure, but it could be higher than atmospheric pressure. A separate liquid pump in the well or in a separate well near the pressure extraction well also can be employed to provide or augment initial liquid removal.
Initial operation tends to lower the groundwater surface somewhat in the immediate vicinity of the well, which initiates creation of an expanded vadose zone in a cone of depression around the well. The slope and depth of the cone of depression depends on the permeability of the soil and the rate of groundwater extraction, the slope of the cone being steeper where the soil is less permeable and water flow through the soil is retarded.
After initial reduction of groundwater contaminant concentration has stabilized, pressure in the exterior pipe is gradually increased. This causes pressurized gas to enter the vadose zone (as it may have been expanded during initial operation), oxygenating the soil and increasing soil gas pressure. The soil gas pressure depresses the groundwater surface in a gradually enlarging cone of depression around the extraction well, producing a further enlarged vadose zone for oxygen infiltration around the well. Lower permeability soils may require a higher gas pressure (or a longer period of application) than high permeability soils, in order to depress the groundwater surface in the cone of depression around the well. As long as the system is used for simultaneous groundwater extraction, the maximum gas pressure in the exterior pipe should be maintained at a low enough level that groundwater will infiltrate the exterior pipe and flow to the inlet of the interior pipe, where the flowing gas will convey the liquid up the interior pipe. If the gas pressure is too high, the gas blows the liquid out of the exterior pipe to a level below the interior pipe inlet, which will stop liquid conveyance up the interior pipe. A maximum gas pressure that does not exceed the hydraulic head pressure in the groundwater at the level of the interior pipe inlet provides continued removal of liquid from the groundwater surface during gas injection of the vadose zone.
In a remediation operation a test is first conducted to find out the soil conditions and how deep the contaminants have penetrated. Then the remediation parameters are established accordingly. As an example, if the contaminants are VOC's that are contained in the vadose zone and the upper ten feet of the groundwater, the well might extend ten feet or somewhat further below the groundwater surface. After initial operation at atmospheric pressure the groundwater surface at the well could be reduced by about five feet, leaving a hydraulic head pressure at the bottom of the well of about five feet, which translates to a head pressure at the interior pipe inlet at the bottom of the well of about 2.2 psig. Pressure in the well is then increased gradually to this level or somewhat less. This depresses the groundwater surface to the vertical depth of the contaminants while expanding the radius of the cone of depression outwardly, while still permitting groundwater extraction from the well. Thus, liquids in the contaminated zone are evacuated and the contaminated soil is exposed to remediation by oxygenation and gas injection.
In an exemplary site wherein contaminants heavier than water penetrate as far as forty feet (or perhaps further) into the groundwater unit, an ultimate pressure of about 17 psig or so can be required to lower the groundwater surface to a level below the depth of contaminant penetration. Low permeability soils may require more pressure or a longer period of application to depress the groundwater surface and expand the cone of depression.
In most operations involving VOC's, a maximum pressure in the exterior pipe of about two psig is sufficient for remediation. Some remediation operations could require a maximum pressure of twenty (20) to forty (40) psig or possibly higher, depending on well depth and soil permeability.
The pressure in the interior pipe is selected in relation to the pressure in the exterior pipe. The interior pipe pressure should be at least 0.5 psig less than the exterior pipe pressure to induce gas flow from the exterior to the interior pipe. The pressure differential could be higher. In an operation where the exterior pipe pressure is five psig (measured at the inlet at ground level), the desirable interior pipe pressure (measure at the outlet at ground level) could be about two psig. A lower gas pressure differential is preferred where feasible.
Another embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. 5. In this embodiment, an exterior pipe 71 includes fluid permeable openings 73 of the same type as described above at an upper portion of the pipe as well as fluid permeable openings 74 at a lower portion of the pipe, with the pipe being non-permeable between the openings. The fluid-permeable openings at the lower portion of the pipe are the same type as discussed above and extend below (and may extend above) the normal groundwater surface. A gas inlet pipe 76 inside the exterior pipe 71 conveys pressurized gas (which may comprise return air) from an inlet pipe 78 downwardly in the interior of exterior pipe 71. A radial seal 80 seals the space between the outer surface of pipe 76 and the interior surface of pipe 71 so that pressurized gas introduced into pipe 76 flows into and downwardly through pipe 71 but cannot flow upwardly through space 82 above seal 80.
Another interior pipe 84 fits inside pipe 76 and extends to an open lower end 86 near the bottom of pipe 71. Pipe 84 serves the same function as interior pipe 28 of FIG. 2. An outlet pipe 88 provides an outlet to the upper end of pipe 71 as well as the upper end of pipe 84 for conveying gas and liquid to a treatment location.
The operation of this embodiment is as follows: Pressurized gas (e.g., return air) introduced through pipe 78 flows past seal 80 into the lower portion of pipe 71, wherein the gas passes out of openings 74 and into the unsaturated ground. This increases the soil gas pressure and, together with the extraction of groundwater, contributes to the depression of the groundwater surface contour similar to the shape 92 shown in FIG. 5. Injected gas emanating from openings 74 above the new groundwater surface contour serves to vent the soil and volatilize the volatile contaminants above the new groundwater surface and in the vadose zone soil. This vented gas conveys vaporized and entrained liquid contaminants from the vadose zone soil into vent opening 73 and into the upper portion of pipe 71. This gas is then conveyed under slight vacuum upwardly to outlet pipe 88 and conveyed to the air and water treatment equipment of FIG. 1.
Gas flowing downwardly through pipe 71 that does not pass outwardly through openings 74 entrains water and liquid contaminants in the lower end of pipe 71 and conveys the liquid upwardly through opening 86 and the interior of pipe 84, carrying with it any contaminants that are floating on the surface of the groundwater. The sloped groundwater surface 92 serves to urge the contaminants to flow downwardly to the extraction well where they are volatilized and carried as droplets, vapor or mist upwardly through interior pipe 84 to outlet pipe 88, which also goes to the gas and water treatment equipment. Valve 85 is throttled to adjust the gas withdrawal flow and vacuum level such that a slight vacuum exists at the upper end of pipe 71.
The advantage of the embodiment of FIG. 5 is that, where soil venting is required to collect volatilized contaminants, vent gas can be removed from the system in the same conduit, and separate vent wells are not required.
Referring to FIG. 4, it can be seen that separate vent wells 16 and 18 can be employed for venting gas that has been introduced into the soil from the area. Vent wells can operate under vacuum conditions, or preferably, provide a near-atmospheric vent to the gas treatment mechanism or to atmosphere. Vent well 16 is a conventional vertical vent pipe having perforations 100 at the lower end, whereas vent well 18 has a vertical pipe 102 and a horizontal vent pipe 104 that has vent openings 106 similar to that used in the other pipes. The advantage of a horizontal vent is that it can receive vent soil gas from a larger horizontal area with less vacuum requirements than a vertical vent well. Gas vented from pipe 110 (which can be the same as pipe 26) migrates to vent wells 16 and 18 and then is directed out of the well to a gas treatment mechanism.
As shown in FIGS. 2 and 5, the horizontal conduits conveying gas (e.g., return air) and conveying gas to the treatment mechanism can either be above ground (as shown in FIG. 2) or below ground (as shown in FIG. 5).
The present invention is contrasted with a prior art vacuum extraction process shown in FIG. 3. As shown in FIG. 3, an exterior pipe 120 having perforated openings 122 at the lower end and having a bottom 124 has an interior pipe 126 extending from an open lower end 128 to an outlet 130 at an upper end. A cap 132 on the exterior pipe encloses the upper end of that pipe. A vacuum gauge 134 can be placed to measure the amount of vacuum in the exterior pipe.
In the operation of a vacuum system, a substantial vacuum of up to 26 inches of mercury is developed at outlet 130. This creates a vacuum in exterior pipe 120 and causes air in the vicinity of the openings in pipe 120 to migrate into exterior pipe 120. Water also migrates into exterior pipe 120. The vacuum then draws water droplets and vapor and gas upwardly through opening 128 into lift pipe 126 and out of the system. The operation of this type of device is significant in several respects. First, high vacuum levels can create an upward bulge 138 in the groundwater surface that extends above the static groundwater surface level at the point of vacuum application. Groundwater extraction using exterior pipe 120 will depress the groundwater immediately adjacent the exterior of the pipe, as shown by portion 136. The reduced pressure in the vadose zone above the groundwater surface at least partially offsets this effect by urging the groundwater upwardly. There is a concern that the vacuum that induces upwelling could, under some circumstances, exceed the depression effect caused by groundwater extraction, in which case the groundwater would actually rise to form a raised collar or bulge in the groundwater surface around the well casing (see FIG. 3). Thus, contaminants floating on the groundwater on the outer side of the bulge 140 are allowed to flow under gravity away from the vacuum extraction pipe. Immersion of capillary soils by vacuum-induced groundwater upwelling will ultimately retard volatization and aerobic decomposition activity in the vicinity of the pipe, due to the absence of gaseous contact. Any vacuum-induced upwelling conflicts with objectives of contaminant extraction including surface contour reduction, contaminant volatilization and soil venting.
The present invention provides soil venting, an increased vadose and capillary area for improved contaminant removal, an improved groundwater contour leading to the extraction pipe and an improved liquid and gas removal action.
It should be understood that the foregoing represents merely an exemplary embodiment of the preferred practice of the present invention and that various changes and modifications may be made in the arrangements and details of construction of the embodiments disclosed herein without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined in the appended claims.

Working with unix i've got a habit to start with exploring logs, if something goes in a wrong way. So the absence of the logs in Cocoon project makes me feel uncomfortable.

Solo Bar
Chaweng Beach, Koh Samui, Thailand
Solo Bar Koh Samui Reviews
4 reviews
Cool place to enjoy!!! Jul 18, 2011
If you really wanna release your stress out, not just go to chill out on the beach in day time only. But you can enjoy and release you stress from your work all year long or even you wanna relax with cool music and dance.
I recommended you to go to Solo Bar. Located on Chaweng Beach, opposite Pizza Hut. There is a great DJ. Moreover, there is the cool drum with the Saxophone. They can play very well with the cool music which DJ open. Many Tourists enjoyed and all dance with the rhythm there.
If you like to dance and drink, this is the one place in Chaweng that you should visit. Anyways, you can enjoy with the sport there also, as they have the big screen for you to enjoy with it. Especially the Premier League Season.

By Russell Simmons and Rabbi Marc Schneier
On the eve of Yom Kippur, a day of prayer, fasting and self-examination, each of us needs to shatter our complacency and narrow the gap between our conscience and our conduct as it relates to American Muslims. Let us acknowledge that ever since the Ground Zero Mosque controversy of 2010 and continuing until today, it has been open season on Muslims in this country. There is no conflict between Islam and the West. There is only conflict between those who embrace coexistence and those who seek to destroy human life. As we write, ads will be going up in New York City subway cars -- which, sadly enough, have been placed there by a Jewish woman named Pamela Geller with a fanatical hatred of Muslims, featuring the slogan; "In any war between the civilized man and the savage, support the civilized man. Support Israel. Defeat Jihad."
Let us be clear that if someone was to put up billboards on the subway referring to Jews or African-Americans or gay people as savages, there would be an enormous uproar. With all the talk about Ms. Geller's right to free expression, it is inconceivable to me that a judge would rule or that the MTA would accede to a ruling that it is OK to put up ads smearing Jews in such a way. Our community would simply not stand for it. Are we going to sit silently while another relatively defenseless community, is smeared in such a vile way?
Yes, there is a serious problem with Islamist extremism and terrorism and we must be vigilant in fighting those who follow that twisted ideology. But as we have learned firsthand in our work building ties of communication and cooperation with the American Muslim community over the past six years, the vast majority of American Muslims are decent, loyal and law-abiding citizens who want the same things for themselves and their children that the Jews want; to be able to practice their faith freely while simultaneously being proud and productive Americans who contribute to the well-being of the larger society.
When anti-Semitism rears its ugly head, we expect non-Jews of good-will to speak out against it. On this day of reflection and introspection, are we really OK to turn our heads and look the other way when our Muslim brothers and sisters are held up for contempt in such a public way? We believe it is incumbent on each of us to speak out loudly and say it is morally unacceptable to falsely libel all American Muslims or any Muslim as savages and to hold a great religion in contempt.
In that light, we are proud that The Foundation for Ethnic Understanding is taking an active role in Shoulder to Shoulder, a coalition of 28 national Christian, Jewish and Muslim groups, who are standing up for American Muslims and upholding basic American values of tolerance, openness, fair play and celebration of diversity. Let us make it clear that the vast majority of Jews do not share Ms. Geller's bigotry, nor accept her equation that support for Israel means hatred of Muslims. The time to raise our voices is now.
Russell Simmons and Rabbi Marc Schneier are the chairman and president, respectively, of the Foundation for Ethnic Understanding, an organization dedicated to fighting intolerance and promoting understanding between ethnic communities.

Cormons, Localita Monte

April 2008
I can't imagine visiting Friuli and not having a meal at Al Cacciatore, known by everyone simply as La Subida. This comfortable, rustic restaurant is perched atop the picturesque, undulating hills of Cormons, in the prestigious Collio. The cuisine reflects an elegant interpretation of classic dishes with an added flair that pays homage to the influences of Eastern Europe that make Friuli such a fascinating region. Proprietors Joško and Loredana Sirk are fanatical about seeking out the best ingredients, whether they are locally-farmed organic vegetables, small-production artisan cheeses or the wines of their friends that adorn the very comprehensive wine list.
Springtime is of course the season for asparagus throughout many parts of northern Italy. The local white asparagus are pretty hard to beat when they are in season, but the local wild (green) asparagus were unlike anything I have ever tasted. These small, slender spears were about the size of haricots verts and were literally bursting with an intensity of flavor I had never encountered. They were sublime. The homemade tortelli with spring vegetables and fresh tomatoes were also phenomenal. We caught Gravner's 2003 Ribolla at an adolescent stage. Gravner believes hot, dry conditions (such as those of 2003) are ideal for his wines, yet on this day the Ribolla offered just a glimpse of its potential. It was a big, racy Ribolla packed with fruit, but also deftly balanced and incredibly harmonious. Subsequent tastings have revealed a wine of compelling beauty.
Among the main courses, I especially enjoyed the roasted veal shank, which is one of the house specialties. The meat was cut tableside and the portion was hearty. Diners with large appetites needn't be shy about requesting a second serving! The lamb chops were seasoned with coriander and a fragrant olive oil from the Carso Mountains above Trieste, a combination that worked well. It was much too young, but I simply couldn't resist drinking Miani's 2003 Calvari (Refosco). Made in miniscule quantities that are allocated down to the bottle, the wine is virtually impossible to find, even in Friuli. It was utterly mind-blowing in its sweet dark fruit, graphite, coffee beans, spices, sweet herbs and new leather. With air the wine gradually came to life in the glass, where it offered supreme pleasure in a big, full-bodied, yet supremely balanced style.
Dessert was on the fly as my son's patience had run out, but we did sample the strawberry custard pre-dessert which was topped with small wild strawberries. It was another dish that perfectly captured the essence of springtime in Friuli.

Before time as we know it began, gods and goddesses lived in the city of Asgard. Odin All Father crossed the Rainbow Bridge to walk among men in Midgard. Thor defended Asgard with his mighty hammer. Mischievous Loki was constantly getting into trouble with the other gods, and dragons and giants walked free. This collection of Norse sagas retold by author Padraic Colum gives us a sense of that magical time when the world was filled with powers and wonders we can hardly imagine.

Hi mums just a question about heating in your babies room
I suspect my baby is a cold sleeper. on cold nights when I leave the heater on she sleeps right through! However when it's warm during bedtime (so no heater required )then cools at night she wakes up!
Do you guys leave the heating on in your babies room?! If so what type of heating is considered safe. I'm concerned abt carbon monoxide etc etc. I've heard mixed reviews abt oil column heaters. That they're expensive to run.
Thanks in advance!
