Yes, yes it does. I would trip over this constantly, so the fact that it is a concept is probably just as well. Wouldn't mind the flip flops though—they look ridiculously comfortable. [Lise El Sayed via Stylinrooms via Hometone]
Dust extraction system
We have a salt pulveriser to pulverise the crystal salt to fine powder.During this operation we find lot of fine dust generation resulting in accumulation of the dust on the surrounding areas.The room size is around 6 ft width ,15 ft long and 15 feet high with opening on top.The salt rate is 100 kg/
LIBERTARIAN REPUBLICAN ALERT!! on Scott Brown Campaign
BOB HEDLUND IN HEADLINE PHOTO OF BROWN CAMPAIGN NOW UP AT FOX NEWS!!
America's longest serving Libertarian Republican State Legislator, Sen. Bob Hedlund of Weymouth, MA, is clearly visible in the large headline photo at the Fox News website.
Hedlund is a close friend and ally of fellow State Senator Scott Brown. He was influential in originally recruiting Brown to run, after speculation centered on Hedlund himself as a possible contender.
Hedlund has been a member of the Republican Liberty Caucus Advisory Board since 1994. He has attended two RLC National Conventions. He's also been a friend of the Libertarian Party of Massachusetts.

Watch Any Vimeo Video in Freaky ASCII-O-Vision [ASCII]
I have no idea how this works, but I do know that it's one of the strangest, coolest things I've seen in a while. Search for any Vimeo video on ASCIImeo, and it'll play back to you as text.
Not sure that this fills a specific need of any kind—although avant-garde film students and alternate dimension enthusiasts, feel free to correct me—and I recommend switching to black and white ("simple ASCII") to cut down on the headaches. Otherwise, though, this is the exact kind of wonderful oddball thing that makes/wastes my day perfectly. [ASCIImeo via The Daily What]

capturing heat/compresors
I am seeking information on heat recovery systems for multiple freezers in a dept. store setting. I am new at the whole topic but have been asked to look into it for someone even less computor savy than myself. The store has about 20 freezer type compressors.Air conditioning units are also evident s

A roundabout method of reading data can improve quantum memory
Researchers who hope to create quantum computers are currently investigating various methods to store data. Nitrogen atoms embedded in diamond show promise for encoding quantum bits (qubits), but the process of reading the information results in an extremely weak signal. Now physicists have demonstrated a roundabout approach for generating a significantly stronger signal from these sorts of qubits.
