unreferenced date August 2009 Keg tossing is a sport that involves the heaving of a standard 15.5 gallon beer keg . Most people would refer to this type of keg as a half keg or half barrel. The keg must be completely emptied before it should be tossed to avoid injuries. There are many different types of keg tossing, as it is practiced throughout the world. In Ireland , the keg is typically thrown over upwards and the height of the toss determines the winner. The newest way to toss a keg combines techniques of both the discus and hammer throw . This updated form of keg tossing does not require the athlete to toss the keg high, rather they are required to try to throw it the farthest distance. Athletes are given three attempts to throw the keg and the winner is determined by measuring the distance tossed. The one who throws the keg the furthest wins. The basic technique for tossing the keg involves swinging the keg in a pendulum like manner and releasing the keg when it is at its apex. A more experienced athlete uses a spin method similar to a hammer throw. The keg is again released when it is at its apex, allowing for the maximum distance.

After three months, his new boss Dussollier invites himself and his wife Alice Rampling to dinner at Alain s house. They arrive late and create a scene with their marital problems and Alice is then despicably rude to Benedicte. Things go downhill from there, beginning with Alain s discovery of an unconscious lemming lodged in the S bend of the kitchen sink. When Alain pulls the lemming out of the S bend, it seems pretty lifeless. But when Benedicte goes to find it the next morning in the laundry room, the camera zooms in on its visible heaving chest, thereby setting up an important relationship with a heaving chest that shows up later in the movie.

Unreferenced date December 2009 Image Rubbletrench.png thumb right A cross section view of a rubble trench foundation The rubble trench foundation , a construction approach popularized by architect Frank Lloyd Wright , is a type of foundation architecture foundation that uses loose stone or rubble to minimize the use of concrete and improve drainage. It is considered more environmentally friendly than other types of foundation because cement manufacturing requires the use of enormous amounts of energy. However, some soil environments are not suitable for this kind of foundation particularly expansive or poor load bearing 1 ton sf soils. A foundation must bear the structural loads imposed upon it and allow proper drainage of ground water to prevent expansion or weakening of soils and frost heaving. While the far more common concrete foundation requires separate measures to insure good soil drainage, the rubble trench foundation serves both foundation functions at once. To construct a rubble trench foundation a narrow trench is dug down below the frost line . The bottom of the trench would ideally be gently sloped to an outlet. Drainage tile, graded 1 8 to daylight, is then placed at the bottom of the trench in a bed of washed stone protected by filter fabric. The trench is then filled with either screened stone typically 1 1 2 or recycled rubble. A steel reinforced concrete grade beam is poured at the surface to provide ground clearance for the structure. If an insulated slab is to be poured inside the grade beam, then the outer surface of the grade beam and the rubble trench should be insulated with rigid XPS foam board, which must be protected above grade from mechanical and UV degradation. The rubble trench foundation is a relatively simple, low cost, and environmentally friendly alternative to a conventional foundation, but may require an engineer s approval if building officials are not familiar with it. Frank Lloyd Wright used them successfully for more than 50 ... more details

Unreferenced date December 2009 The Derelict is a short story by William Hope Hodgson , first published in 1912. As he does in many of his stories, Hodgson employs a framework or story within a story. In the framework, an elderly ship s doctor recounts a strange event that happened to him some years earlier, in the context of discussing his ideas about a fundamental life force that can manifest itself in the presence of proper materials. While sailing as a passenger, a sudden storm disables the ship. In the aftermath, a derelict vessel is discovered. A small boat is sent to investigate, since from a distance the shape of the vessel seems to indicate that it is surprisingly ancient. The captain is interested in possible salvage. Upon boarding the vessel, the investigators discover that it is encased in a thick fungus like encrustation. In order to go below the deck, the captain kicks the encrustation, which begins to spurt a reddish fluid, and a rhythmic thudding like a heartbeat is heard. The solid surface of the encrustation begins softening and heaving, becoming mobile and gelatinous, and actually begins to dissolve the shoes of the investigators, as if it is attempting to digest them. As events escalate, the lantern is dropped and extinguished in the frantic attempt that follows to escape the vessel, a crewman is killed as he falls on the undulating surface and it envelopes and dissolves his body. The doctor and the captain manage to get over the side into an old lifeboat where they beat off a pseudopod and manage to escape back to their own vessel. The doctor believes that the particular combination of cargo aboard the derelict, as it decayed, may have resulted in abiogenesis spontaneous generation of a new life form.

Pipe ramming or pipe jacking in British English is a trenchless method for installation of steel pipes and casings. Distances up to 30m 150 ft up long and up to 1,500mm 60 inches in diameter are feasible, although the method can be used for much longer and larger installations. The method is the most useful for shallow installations under railway lines and roads, where other trenchless methods could cause surface settling or heaving. The majority of installations are horizontal, although the method can be used for vertical installations. The method uses pneumatic percussive blows to drive the pipe through the ground. The leading edge of the pipe is almost always open, and is typically closed only when smaller pipes are being installed. Its shape allows a small overcut to reduce friction between the pipe and soil and improve load conditions on the pipe and to direct the soil into the pipe interior instead of compacting it outside the pipe. These objectives are usually achieved by attaching a soil cutting shoe or special bands to the pipe. Further reduction of friction is typically achieved with lubrication, and different types of bentonite and or polymers can be used as in horizontal directional boring for this purpose. Spoil removal from the pipe can be done after the entire pipe is in place shorter installations . If the pipe containing the spoil becomes too heavy before the installation is complete, the ramming can be interrupted and the pipe cleaned longer installations . Spoil can be removed by auger, compressed air or water jetting.
