Hi,

If anyone can give me the specifications of a wind mill that can be used to draw water from a well.

A windmill to draw water from well will be a big boost in my village where electricity is not available.

Thanking u in advance.

Maybe dark furnitures (black) with brushed stainless steel/nickel decor/objects/details? or dramatic/ bold colors with natural/earthy textures and materials? like leather, canvas, rattan? . . . I’ve been looking at examples and trying to visualize what to do to make a light/mono-color home looks warm and inviting. Help~







I tried to wire the Green wire to G at the thermostat and at the furnace but the fan will not turn on using the switch that is in the thermostat. I do not have a cooling system so I want to wire it up just to run the fan when I need it. The furnace is a new Amana the terminals on the control board inside are labeled TWIN Y W R C G. I would also like to know what each of these terminals are for. Thank you.




How much insulation should a new home have?




I purchased my new home last spring and wanted to know how much insulation it should have. It, currenly, has roughly 6 inches. The insulation was blown in and not laid like carpet.
The attic currently has 6-8 inches of blown insulation. Do I need more? Will it not only keep costs down in the winter but also in the summer ? I live in Dallas, Texas.




How is the energy, wind, delivered to you?




My friend and I are doing a science project and we need some help! Thanks!







I would like a debate on the most efficient clean energy sources.







I recently acquired a solar panel and charge regulator. I was hoping to use while at this week long camping/music festival thing in the summer. My friends always kill their batteries charging their phones and such. I was planning on connecting the panel and regulator to the battery with alligator clips. Can I just leave it connected all week? Would it damage anything?







…on the top. The problem with electric cars is that right now they can only go for about 200 miles before a recharge, which you plug into a wall outlet. Could a solar panel be added to the roof of a vehicle so that it recharges (even if its only a partial charge) while you drove, or at least while your parked in a parking lot.

Think of the Ford Edge with its vista roof. Instead of one large moonroof, one large solar panel to charge a lithium-ion battery. Would this be too expensive to build? Would a solar panel not provide enough power?







i have well water, house was built in ’73, its a all electric home, i checked the tank under the stairs no water and no air

Want To Ride A Roller Coaster In My Mind?




I have Aspergers Syndrome and I am still researching about the syndrome myself. I hope I can teach you many interesting things about life and my perspective of it.

I can communicate with beings to which most people may seem imaginary but to me, they are real entities. These beings are known as Niggies. I am not referring to any racial preference so please be patient and let me explain:)

I’d thought I would explain more about them in a better dialog to RELEASE YOU AND SET YOU FREE FROM REALITY!

Most people would consider such a thing to be FICTION or MAKE BELIEVE only because they have been stuck in a box most of their life, cluttered with BOUNDARIES and FALSE TRUTH. That box is what blocks people from thinking outside the box, rather than converting into any shape or form people still manage to stay inside that box.

DOUBT is what is holding you back from POSSIBILITY. Which is why my Niggies don’t seem REAL to you.

But I see them, and still I know the secrets in which most people FEAR to know. I have a great Family that I can’t be more thankful to have, they have raised me in such love and support. I know there can be a lot of cruel people in this world, but those cruel people exist for a reason. To prove kind people also exist, and that’s what you ALL should keep in mind.

I have created a website about the Niggies but I won’t mention it in this part of the question. I will put it in the details section.

But I don’t need to hide it all, because I rather open up to everyone. It gives me comfort and it’s who I am and I am not ashamed of myself what so ever!

If I could choose between a pet or Niggies, I would choose Niggies. Because they ARE POWERFUL, STRONG, INTELLIGENT, LOVING, ACCEPTING, FEARLESS, UNDERSTANDING, HUMOROUS, KIND, GENEROUS, HAPPY and SO MANY MORE THINGS.

I love my Family more than the Niggies because the Niggies didn’t raise me, teach me to walk or talk or do what parents do. I hate choosing and I have no favorites because I love everybody the same.

The Niggies are my good buddies and companions=) They are not in the way of anything.

Here is some information about them, and again in the details section my website should be there for you to check out. I always update it=)

The average lifespan of a Niggi is 92, depending on if the Niggi does drugs etc.

Niggies can run up to 39 mph

-Facts!

There is a Niggi version of every band, singer, actor , and any person in the world!

-Niggies are about 7 x stronger then humans!
-Niggies are the greatest fighters in the world

Female Niggies don’t have necks , they are a big oval with a body, arms, legs, hands, feet and a face. They usually have long hair. They do not have a nose, there is a space between their eyes and lips, which air passes through the skin so they can sense smell. Female Niggies are either pink or brown.

Male Niggies have necks, and very strong necks. They have a wide snout like face, with large nostrils and they look like dinosaurs and lizards because of the snouted face. Male Niggies come in many varies colours including: Blue, red, purple, green, yellow, orange, biege, brown, black, albino and many others.

Niggies are also known as Maladdin
Maladdin means of ”Niggi Decent”

The Niggi hand can reach up to pressure of 400 pounds, full force. That is more then the average human combined.

The adult Niggi can reach up the strength up to 7 body builders all together.

Jealousy is the only emotion Niggies don’t feel.

THERES WAY MORE BUT I DON’T WANT TO KEEP YOU HERE ALL DAY=D

Here are some pictures or depictions shall say of Niggies:P

I drew these:
