If I understand it right, the quake caused water from lower layers of soil to move upwards to already sandy/watery soil. This liquefaction practically turns the sandy/watery soil into a fluid. That fluid-drenched soil responds to the quake as if they were ocean waves. In this case, the watery soil got violently pushed upwards with every pulse of the earthquake.

0.90PF (assuming lagging) doesn’t sound too bad especially for the summer. Has anyone ever thought about putting in switched or stepped capacitors or a synchronous condenser to get closer to unity (1.0 PF)? Depending on how the power company is billing your facility you might be able to save some money in the long run and also improve voltage regulation. (Just watch out for NASTY switching transients with capacitor banks if they aren’t filtered, potential for bus overvoltage if you have caps in without a corresponding lagging load, and also if you agree with the power company to never drop below a set PF and you do you can get fined.) I’m a big fan of synchronous condensers (synchronous motors that run highly leading PF, overexcited, with no load attached) but those have a big initial cost and more maintenance associated with them. Plus that’s more for hundreds of kVAs or MVAs of reactive power. Three-Phase fucked around with this message at 04:15 on Nov 16, 2017 |

My son sent me this from his job, this morning. I told him to stay as far away from it as possible, particularly when it was in operation. He expressed his desire to keep himself intact and stayed on the other side of the warehouse. Apparently, it's scheduled for maintenance. Soon.

So they really are making the Bass-O-Matic '76 but for mice. Not sure what application would be that one would need a rodent that is ready-to-pour, but it's been a long time since I was in a bio lab.

The black-and-white scene, with some schlubby, balding rear end incompetently failing at using a mortar-and-pestle to grind up mice, contrasted (with cheesy music) with the full-colour, smiling attractive woman effortlessly succeeding at mouse homogenization while looking only at the camera, just happily grinding mice with a big poo poo-eating grin on her face. And a star wipe. Because of course.

ExecuDork posted:During my M.Sc. in biology a dozen years ago (nothing to do with rodents, but the lab down the hall...) I saw ads like this in every hard-copy issue of every biology journal around. I mentioned one such ad to another grad student who was doing something with mice or rats but I didn't know the details, and he was very happy with the homogenizer they had, apparently they had had some problems with previous devices. What I got out of that was these things are subject to intense commercial competition, with various manufacturers constantly innovating their rodent-blenders and pushing the technology forward. Clicked the poo poo out of that link just to further skew the rare suggested products to make it through my ad blocker.
