Never push down, because if for any reason the motor should kick back, it would endanger the operator.

The chemical which is a by-product of salt manufacture was found to have a greater deadening effect on fire than water alone but was difficult to use.
Further trials were conducted by the Forests Commission just after the end of WW2 at Anglesea in Victoria beginning in November 1946 to compare the performance of RAAF P51 Mustangs, Consolidated B-24 Liberators and Avro Lincoln Bombers dropping ammonium sulphate compounds in 500 lb bombs from about 100 feet which were designed to burst on impact.
The results were encouraging but inconclusive.
Almost a year later in 1947 American firefighters also began experimenting with water-filled bombs dropped from B-29 Superfortess and P-47 Thunderbolts.

Shakshouka is typically served in the same frying pan in which it is cooked, with thick slices of white bread to mop up the sauce, and a side of salad.
More upscale restaurant versions are served on an open flat bread, a lafa, with steak strips, flame roasted eggplant and salads.
Shakshouka, originally a workman's breakfast popularized by North-African Jews in Israel, is made simply of fried eggs in spicy tomato sauce, with other vegetable ingredients or sausage optional.
Modern variations include a milder version made with spinach and feta without tomato sauce, and hot-chili shakshouka, a version that includes both sweet and hot peppers and coriander.

Since the kuda-gitsune multiplies until their number grows to 75, the large pack of foxes eat away at the family's wealth bringing about their downfall.
Such a family, though they main amass wealth is seen to have achieved it by striking fear among others by its fox-using, and marriage with a fox-user household was shunned by the rest.
The kuda-gitsune were allegedly commanded by its master to raid other families' homes and stealing their possessions, and in this way the master's family grows wealthy―or at least in the beginning.
As for the foxes quickly multiplying to 75, it is also said that every time a bride from a kuda or osaki-haunted household goes off to be married, she is said to bring 75 of the kuda minions along with her into the new household.
This piece of folklore was perhaps invented as a convenient explanation as to why so many families came to be accused of being fox-owners, as time went by.

boiler
Superheated steam boilerWhen water is boiled the result is saturated steam, also referred to as "wet steam."
Draining of the boiler can also happen if a leak occurs in the steam supply lines that is larger than the make-up water supply could replace.
The Hartford Loop was invented in 1919 by the Hartford Steam Boiler Inspection and Insurance Company as a method to help prevent this condition from occurring, and thereby reduce their insurance claims.
Saturated steam, while mostly consisting of water vapor, carries some unevaporated water in the form of droplets.
Saturated steam is useful for many purposes, such as cooking, heating and sanitation, but is not desirable when steam is expected to convey energy to machinery, such as a ship's propulsion system or the "motion" of a steam locomotive.

The amount of good this does depends on the technique used to make the barrel.
This stress can cause the barrel to expand unevenly as it heats, causing shots to "walk" as the barrel heats and cools.
To prevent this, careful post-machining heat treatment is often used to stress-relieve the barrels.
For example, the hammer forging method of manufacture leaves a significant amount of stress in the barrels, which could be addressed through stress-relieving heat treatment.

ALS Ice Bucket Challenge The ALS Ice Bucket Challenge was a form of media activism that swept through online communities to bring awareness to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as Lou Gehrig's Disease, a fatal disease which causes damage to a person's motor functions through the break down of nerve cells.
It began in July 2014, when Chris Kennedy first challenged his sister, Jeanette Senerchia, to participate in the challenge.
Senerchia was inspired to partake in order to support her husband who had previously been diagnosed with the disease.

The concentration of fossils at Alag Teeg has been explained as caused by a drying pool, but later research showed the sediments were deposited during a flood.
It is remarkable that the members of such groups are all of about the same age, having an average length of circa 1.5 metres.
This could be explained by the larger individuals being able to extract themselves from the sand, leaving the small members of the herd behind but in that case it is strange that no very young animals were found, the smallest being about one metre in length.
During their ontogenetic development, in juveniles at first the ribs fused with their vertebrae.
The forelimbs strongly increased in robustness, while the hindlimbs did not become larger relative to the rest of the skeleton, indicating that the arms bore most of the weight.
