One hundred twenty-nine vessels either clearly marked or attributed to Dave were catalogued, photographed, and compared to define stylistic traits based on forms, glazes. dimensions, marks, handwriting, and dates. Combined with archival research. the author has answered questions surrounding incongruous theories about the life and work history of Dave posited by earlier scholarship.

  • Protecting Your Water Pipes in Cold Weather Western Washington’S Weather Is Often-Times Unpredictable
    Protecting Your Water Pipes in Cold Weather Western Washington’s weather is often-times unpredictable. Don’t let this year’s winter weather catch you unprepared. To prevent the expense and inconvenience of frozen pipes, take the following precautions to help minimize future problems. BEFORE Freezing Weather d Never leave a garden hose attached to the faucet in freezing weather. Disconnect and drain hoses from outside faucets. d Winterize irrigation systems. d Insulate backflow devices and outside faucets with newspaper, rags or other insulating material. Cover them with plastic and secure with string or wire. d Insulate hot and cold pipes in unheated areas, such as the garage, crawl space or attic. d Locate your main shutoff valve to your home and make sure you show household members how to turn off water to the house in case of an emergency. DURING Freezing Weather: d Temporarily, keep a steady drip of cold water running at an inside faucet. This keeps water moving, making it less likely to freeze. d Open cupboard doors under sinks, especially where plumbing is in an outside wall, to allow interior heat to warm the pipes. d If you plan to be away from home for several days, shutting off the water can reduce the chances of broken pipes. Leave the heat on to your home to at least 55 degrees. Shut off water to the house and open all faucets to drain pipes; flush the toilet once to drain the tank, but not the bowl.If you drain your pipes, be sure to turn off your water heater first.

  • Frozen Cayuga & Seneca Lakes Article with Picture
    When Cayuga Lake and Seneca Lake Have Frozen Over by Walt Gable, Seneca County Historian, Feb. 2009 Whenever we have a good “old-fashioned” winter, it is easy for Seneca County residents to begin to speculate if ‘the lake might soon freeze over.” The odds, while not great, are better that it could happen to Cayuga Lake than Seneca Lake. This is because Cayuga Lake has frozen over several more times in recorded history than has Seneca Lake. Cayuga Lake also froze over more recently (1979) than Seneca Lake (1912). This 1927 picture shows a frozen Cayuga Lake near the village of Cayuga. The infrequent freezing of Seneca Lake has led to a joke that people should put Seneca Lake water in their car’s radiator because this water never freezes. Apparently this comment was frequently mentioned to the trainees at Sampson Naval Station during World War II.1 Arch Merrill in his 1951 book Slim Finger Beckon makes reference to this “modern legend.” Some Basic Information Before going any further in this discussion, there needs to be clarification as to just what constitutes a “frozen over lake.” For our purposes in this article, “frozen over lake” will mean a lake whose surface is virtually entirely frozen over—allowing for some isolated “air holes” and/or areas nearer to shore where there is some “open water,” perhaps because of warm water being discharged. In other words, we will use “frozen over” to mean the same as “virtually completely frozen over.” If a portion of either Cayuga or Seneca Lake has ice extending from some place on the eastern shoreline to the western shoreline, when other parts of the lake are not frozen from shore to shore, this will not be considered as completely frozen over.

    BBL™ Group A Selective Strep Agar with 5% Sheep Blood (ssA™) and ! BBL™ Trypticase™ Soy Agar with 5% Sheep Blood (TSA II)–Bi-Plate " L007379 • Rev. 09 • December 2006 QUALITY CONTROL PROCEDURES I INTRODUCTION Group A Selective Strep Agar with 5% Sheep Blood (ssA) is a selective medium for use in the isolation and presumptive identification of group A streptococci from throat cultures and other specimens. Trypticase Soy Agar with 5% Sheep Blood (TSA II) is used for the growth of fastidious organisms and for the visualization of hemolytic reactions. The TSA II medium sector is marked "I" and the ssA medium sector is marked "II" in the bi-plate dish. II PERFORMANCE TEST PROCEDURE A. Group A Selective Strep Agar with 5% Sheep Blood 1. Inoculate representative samples with the cultures diluted to contain 103–104 CFU/0.01 mL. a. To each plate, add 0.01 mL of the dilution and streak for isolation. Make a stab in the primary streak area before streaking the rest of the plate. b. Place a Taxo™ A disc at the intersection of the first and second area of streaking on all plates inoculated with S. pyogenes strains. c. Incubate plates at 35 ± 2°C in an aerobic atmosphere supplemented with carbon dioxide. d. Include Trypticase Soy Agar with 5% Sheep Blood (TSA II) plates as nonselective controls for all organisms. 2. Examine plates after 18–24 h for beta hemolysis in the stabbed area and for amount of growth, inhibition, colony size and hemolytic reactions. Read and record the size of the zone around the Taxo A disc with S.

  • Screening of Pharmaceuticals in San Francisco Bay Wastewater
    Screening of Pharmaceuticals in San Francisco Bay Wastewater Prepared by Diana Lin Rebecca Sutton Jennifer Sun John Ross San Francisco Estuary Institute CONTRIBUTION NO. 910 / October 2018 Pharmaceuticals in Wastewater Technical Report Executive Summary Previous studies have shown that pharmaceuticals are widely detected in San Francisco Bay, and some compounds occasionally approach levels of concern for wildlife. In 2016 and 2017, seven wastewater treatment facilities located throughout the Bay Area voluntarily collected wastewater samples and funded analyses for 104 pharmaceutical compounds. This dataset represents the most comprehensive analysis of pharmaceuticals in wastewater to date in this region. On behalf of the Regional Monitoring Program for Water Quality in San Francisco Bay (RMP), the complete dataset was reviewed utilizing RMP quality assurance methods. An analysis of influent and effluent information is summarized in this report, and is intended to inform future monitoring recommendations for the Bay. Influent and effluent concentration ranges measured were generally within the same order of magnitude as other US studies, with a few exceptions for effluent. Effluent concentrations were generally significantly lower than influent concentrations, though estimated removal efficiency varied by pharmaceutical, and in some cases, by treatment type. These removal efficiencies were generally consistent with those reported in other studies in the US. Pharmaceuticals detected at the highest concentrations and with the highest frequencies in effluent were commonly used drugs, including treatments for diabetes and high blood pressure, antibiotics, diuretics, and anticonvulsants. For pharmaceuticals detected in discharged effluent, screening exercises were conducted to determine which might be appropriate candidates for further examination and potential monitoring in the Bay.

    capturing hip hop histories SOUTH-WEST HEADZ Master Blast Roadshow poster by Raz (Kilo), 1986. Photograph: Kilo. First published 2021 2021 Adam de Paor-Evans Cover graff by Remser Remser started writing in 1997 after seeing dubs and pieces by Sceo, Fixer, Teach, and G-Sane at the M5 pillar spot in Exeter. His school bus used to loop around Sannerville Way and the pieces could be seen from the road as well as the train. A couple of years prior to this, Remser’s mum randomly bought him a copy of Spraycan Art, and he knew straight away that it was something he wanted to be part of. In early 2000 he moved to London and hooked up with the DNK/CWR boys, they were way better than him and super-active but this experience pushed him to develop his style and learn about all aspects of graffiti writing.
