This document summarizes a person's attempt to build a low-cost solar cooker using a discarded satellite dish. The author describes obtaining the dish and various methods tried to create a reflective surface, including small mirrors, aluminized bags, and adhesive paper. Initial tests showed the cooker could boil water in 30-35 minutes. Further improvements were made to the reflective surface. With an adhesive paper surface, a container of water showed bubbles in under 10 minutes and a full boil in over 20 minutes. The author concludes the cooker works but would like ideas to expand its size to be able to cook full meals and protect the reflective surface from UV degradation long-term.

The document summarizes data from surveys assessing the health of LGBT communities in Colorado. It provides an overview of population-based surveys of youth and adults, as well as a convenience sample survey. Key findings include:
- LGBQ youth reported higher rates of bullying, feeling unsafe at school, and depression compared to heterosexual youth.
- LGB adults reported higher rates of obesity, smoking, drinking, and mental health issues than heterosexual adults.
- The convenience survey provided additional insights into challenges LGBT communities face, such as discrimination and lack of support systems.
I create sketches using acrylic paint and charcoal. My sketches explore a variety of subjects and styles through these mediums. Whether realistic portraits or abstract concepts, I aim to capture the essence of my subjects on paper through acrylic and charcoal.
This document discusses several electrocardiogram (ECG) findings:
1. A right bundle branch block with left axis deviation can indicate bifascicular block. T wave inversions in V1-V3 can be due to right bundle branch block or previous anterior wall myocardial infarction.
2. Brugada Syndrome Type 2.
3. Very rapid atrial fibrillation with a wide QRS indicates Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome due to an accessory pathway with aberrant conduction.
This is a lightning talk I did at the December PDX WordPress user group meeting about the WP-Remix theme I used for a project that had a very fast turn around. The project was for a company that makes wall calendars and I had 3 days to provide a screen shot of the homepage a calendar page and 1 text page. After searching for a template I thought this one would be perfect, but it is difficult to work with unless you know HTML, CSS and perhaps a bit of PHP.
The document discusses disaster housing resources and strategies. It identifies different types of interim and permanent housing options available after disasters, including shelters, rental assistance, temporary repairs, manufactured housing, and reconstruction assistance. It also discusses challenges in providing disaster housing, such as balancing needs, availability, and community characteristics. A variety of federal, state, local, and non-profit organizations provide housing assistance after disasters.

This document discusses the degradation of plastics over time. It examines research on the breakdown of various plastic materials, such as polyethylene bottles and polystyrene cups, when exposed to different environmental conditions like weather, sediment, and heat over periods of 2 years. The research found that plastic type and environment significantly impact degradation rates, with thermal aging causing faster breakdown than weather or water exposure. Most plastics showed chemical changes within 24 months, with polyurethane breaking down most quickly. Cigarette butts were also examined and found to degrade into paper and acetic acid. Understanding plastic degradation can help address the global pollution problem.
This document discusses sustainable transport and packaging materials for artworks. It summarizes the risks involved in transporting cultural heritage like vibration, climate changes, theft and accidents. It outlines preventative measures like planning, confidentiality, gloves, experienced handlers, adequate packaging, labeling, fastening, couriers, supervision and equipment to control temperature and humidity. It also notes the dilemma between requirements for transporting art versus sustainable solutions. Different transport methods like trucks, planes, ships and trains are discussed in terms of sustainability. Finally, it provides examples of sustainable packaging and transport approaches like reusable crates, flexible packaging systems and virtual couriering.
1. The document provides guidance on practicing integrated pest management (IPM) in a calm and reasonable manner. It advises focusing IPM efforts on key areas like sanitation, exclusion of pests, and monitoring, rather than trying to inspect and treat everything.
2. Effective monitoring of pest populations involves using traps, record keeping, and identifying problem areas. Traps should be placed strategically and checked regularly.
3. Proper inspection is the foundation of any IPM program. Inspections should be routine and involve looking for pests, signs of pests, and conditions that could attract pests. Focus inspection on vulnerable areas and artifacts.
