Q:Our house was recently struck by lightning and caused much damage to our stuff I was wondering if you can build your own? Or if anyone knows where to buy one??

The only time I heard a cat cough, it ended up he had congestive heart failure. Really bad. Came on him suddenly over just a weekend too! Hairballs are definitely accompanied by a retching sound, not a cough! (I know, I am too literal!) Did you know that you can prevent your cat from developing hairballs by feeding it a tsp of butter a day? (Some sites say vaseline, but I figure if I wouldn't eat it myself I am certainly not feeding it to a pet!) I have a black fixed tom who I rescued from living wild (someone had obviously dumped him). When I finally let him into my home he was about 7 months old and used to 'fending for himself. Unfortunately he still does that sometimes! The fur and feathers seem to give him some trouble passing unless I give him the butter. There is absolutely NO PROBLEM getting him to finish it off, though!

Q:Do you have DN150-DN80 variable diameter steel pipe joint?

Such components generally belong to standard parts, which is a national standard. It's easy to procure in the market.See details: "GB/T 12459-2005 steel welded seamless pipe fittings"The L length of DN150-DN80 is 140mm, and is H in the national standardSee below:

(I) flared type pipe jointApplication: oil, water, gas and other non corrosive or corrosive medium pipe joint with steel pipe specifications and flexible pipe welding, has the characteristics of reliable connection, good sealing performance, so it is widely used in oil refining, chemical industry, light industry, textile, metallurgy, national defense, aviation, ship etc.; also suitable for hydraulic transmission of various mechanical engineering, machine tools and other equipment pipeline. Flared tube fittings are manufactured in the following six categories:

Q:What is the definition for the k factor for a hydrant or what does the k factor represents?Qk*sqrt(p)thanks!

My personal opinion is that every rider is WELL aware of the dangers of riding, bullriding, bronco events, etc w/out wearing a helmet and the consequences of such an action. Myself, tho not a bullrider by any means, still rides to this day on my own horse without a helmet. I have fallen off several times and each time I do, I always say that I will start wearing one cause all it takes is a fall that you don't have time to prepare for and then you end up like Christopher Reeves or worse. But I never have used a helmet. So my opinion on the matter is that each rider should do and or wear whatever they want. It's their decision on whether they think that having a 1800 lb animal's hoof come down on their skull will do damage or not and if they can be quick enough to get out of the way.

Q:I brought my car in to an independent VW shop to replace my HID lights with a different K bulb so I did, but the mechanic said that hey your car feels weird, then he said take a look at your tires tell me if its shaking, I guess it was shaking but maybe to me it looked like it was shaking because he said something. I know awhile back I hit a speed bump going pretty fast but not fast enough that i dont think could break anything. I would like to think that my 08 gti suspension is much more rugged than that. or is this mechanic totally pulling my leg, I guess to me the car doesnt feel any different. IS MY SUSPENSION ALREADY BROKEN? PLEASE HELP

no where near enough information-water?sewage?gases?g flow?pressure piping? etc.

Q:i have fibromialga (sp) and it really helps if i sleep with one but im anxious that its not the best choice.. please help :)

Well don't expect to walk on the field after a week of practice and be the best one. I have been playing for 8 years, I'm a freshman in high school, I'm 14. I play varsity JV. We have practice everyday for 2+ hours wheather its raining, cold, hot, sleeting, etc., and sometimes on the weekend. I don't have much free time, so if your gonna play for your school or city large then get ready for nonstop pratice. Most people say soccer is that you just run up and down the field and it takes a long time to score. well its not, its more to it when your a player. Its a very contact sport so you may get winded or knocked out but youve gotta get back up to the ball. you need to know how to dribble, run endurance, run for speed, head the ball, chest the ball, kicking when your pressured, defending, shooting, juggling, corner kicks, pks, throw ins. etc etc. You need to know the rules and all the postions. It takes a lot of skills, if you feel like its too much, ask one of the girls to do some one on one with you on the weekend then try out next year. If you put your heart into something, anything is possible.

Q:i read an online article stating not to use snow cables (traction cables) on snow tires? does this include studded tires? why is this?

I would use Pex. You can buy everything you need at Home Depot. You will find Pex is a lot easier to run through walls than copper. I prefer to use stainless steel clamps than compression fittings. The crimping tool os expensive, but the time savings makes up for it. Good Luck!

Q:Even though his face looked more messed up GSP was clearly outstriking Shields for at least 3 or 4 of the 5 rounds and was never in danger of losing. After 4 rounds of futility why didn't Shields or his corner try a different gameplan? Would have made for a much more entertaining fight.

I suggest first searching on the internet about contact lenses in lab. You will find different information there. There should be two sides to this policy. One should be whether contact lenses actually provide an additional layer of protection compared to someone without contacts. The other is whether a contact lens, once contaminated, will extend the contamination to a longer time than use of the chemical. These are both good points, but may not be something within your control, except to change lenses after lab. You might wish to read what you may find on the internet and then talk to the department chair. The last point I wish to make and I have no financial interest in, is the wearing of contact lenses. My wife had an eye exam and questioned whether her prescription may have changed. The optometrist questioned whether she should have lasik eye surgery. The point he was making was that lasik eye surgery had become safer than wearing contact lenses. The putting in and taking out contacts subjects you to eye infections and other injuries. He argued that in the long run, lasik was a wiser choice. I cannot recommend what you should do, but perhaps you should also looking into alternatives as well.

Q:How was the pipe joint named?

Use the end extension of the pipe for sealing without any other seals. The utility model has simple structure and is suitable for the connection of thin-wall pipe fittings, and is suitable for pipelines with low pressure of oil and gas as medium. The pressure is allowed to be used in table 41, table 27~41, GB5625.1 to 5653-1985Insert welded pipe jointThe length of the tube will need to be inserted into the pipe joints and pipe end until the connector end of the contact, the pipe and the pipe joint are welded together, can save over, but the pipe size is strictly applicable to oil and gas as the medium pipeline system table 43 ~ 49 JB3878-1985Cone seal welded pipe jointOne end of the connecting pipe is provided with an outer cone surface, and a O shape sealing ring is matched with the inner cone surface of the joint body, and is screwed with the screw thread. The working pressure is 16 ~ 31.5MPa, the temperature - 25 to 80 DEG C for oil as medium piping system table 50 ~ 62 JB/T6381 ~ 6385-1992Withhold hose connectorThe installation is convenient, but a tightening process is added. After the hose is damaged, the joint coat can not be reused, and it is made up of a steel wire braided hose. The utility model can be connected with a welding pipe joint sealed with a O ring. Pipeline system suitable for oil, water and gas as medium. Medium temperature: Oil: -30 ~ 80 degrees Celsius; air -30 to 50 degrees Celsius; water below 80 degrees JB/ZQ4427 ~ 4428-1986
