Consider it as a standby setup, at negligible cost, for those emergencies when the furnace quits, a blizzard holds up fuel delivery, or for cool summer mornings or evenings when you don't want to start up your whole heating plant.

Something had to be done about the furnace, the fuel bills, the washing machine, the doctor and dentist bills, about making money stretch for food, for the mortgage, for taxes, for shoes, for half soles, for overshoes, for clothes, for the new leaks in the roof, for gas and light bills ; ;

( The large-scale felling of trees for fuel during the winters has created another environmental crisis.

The vast majority of energy is produced with imported fuel, including gas and nuclear fuel ( for its one nuclear power plant ) from Russia ; the main domestic energy source is hydroelectric.

The rocket was returned to the Vehicle Assembly Building, the fuel tank replaced and the rocket returned to the launch pad in February in time for the scheduled launch.

Whilst heavier armour provides better protection, it makes vehicles less mobile ( for a given engine power ), limits its air-transportability, increases cost, uses more fuel and may limit the places it can go-for example, many bridges may be unable to support the weight of a main battle tank.

From the start of the war, Massoud's mujahideen proved to be a thorn in the side for the occupying Soviet forces by ambushing Soviet and Afghan communist convoys travelling through the Salang Pass, resulting in fuel shortages in Kabul .< ref name =" Iyer ">

Even if the self portrait we distribute for popular consumption were accurate it would be dangerous to present it as a picture of the ideal society.

At that time consideration will be given to whether in the light of the United States supplies of rice available for Title 1, disposal, India's production, consumption and stocks of food grains, other imports from the United States and countries friendly to the United States, India's storage capacity, and other related factors, any increase would be possible in the portion of the total rice programmed which is currently planned for procurement during the first year.

The Department of Agriculture averaged out U.S. food consumption last year at 1,488 lbs. per person, which, allowing for the 17 million Americans that John Kennedy said go to bed hungry every night, means that certain gluttons on the upper end must somehow down 8 lbs. or more a day.

From 1764 onwards, there was a gradual change from a slave-based society to one based on production for domestic consumption and export.

In the US and some other countries, because of legal and tax restrictions on alcohol consumption, ethanol destined for other uses often contains additives that make it unpalatable ( such as denatonium benzoate ) or poisonous ( such as methanol ).

The stigmatization of amateurs as fools for contributing to society simply for the love of it can be explained by the amateur ’ s non-conformity to the ideological structure of consumption ( Goffman, 1963 ; Stebbins, 1992 ).

Since the mid-1990s, there have been many increasingly successful endeavors to commercially farm abalone for the purpose of consumption.

The consumption of ambrosia was typically reserved for divine beings.

It has also been recently suggested that the rapid climatic collapse, marking the Akkadian Dark Age, may have been responsible for the religiously prescribed prohibition against the raising and consumption of pigs that spread through the Ancient Middle East from the end of the third millennium BC.

a guideline for alcohol consumption.

Since 1995 the UK government has advised that regular consumption of 3 – 4 units a day for men, or 2 – 3 units a day for women, would not pose significant health risks, but that consistently drinking four or more units a day ( men ), or three or more units a day ( women ), is not advisable.

This was the preferred method for protein consumption over animal husbandry, as it required much more work to defend the kept animals against American Indians or the French.

However, until the Revolution, many considered whiskey to be a coarse alcohol unfit for human consumption, as many believed that it caused the poor to become raucous and unkempt drunkards.

Salted pork was a staple of any meal, as it was used in the preparations of vegetables for flavor, in addition to its direct consumption as a protein.

Outpacing that of wine since 2001, the growing production and consumption of beer has supported the existence of related events, for example the so-called Oktoberfests ( sic ) or " Fiestas de la Cerveza " in locations that have a significant German population ( Villa General Belgrano in Córdoba, San Carlos and Esperanza in the province of Santa Fe, etc .).

His burst held for a second on the engine section of the plane.

American technology in engine and hull design is largely responsible for the plentiful interest in American boating.

The outboard engine of today has a phenomenal range of one to 80 horsepower, unheard of a few years ago for a two cycle engine in quantity production.

Most entry blanks for competitive events require engine displacement information because of class restrictions.

Actually, the engine displacement formula is the standard formula for computing the volume of a cylinder of any type with an added factor that represents the number of cylinders in the engine.

To determine car speed for a given combination of engine speed, gear ratio, and tire size, the formula is: Af.

To determine engine speed for a given combination of the other three factors the formula is: Af.

Next, run the engine and let it heat up so the thermostat opens, and then look for leaks again.

The simple mechanical strain of overweight, says New York's Dr. Norman Jolliffe, can overburden and damage the heart `` for much the same reason that a Chevrolet engine in a Cadillac body would wear out sooner than if it were in a body for which it was built ''.

Assuming no loss of time when moving a car from one station to another, the longest stage on the assembly line determines the throughput ( 20 minutes for the engine installation ) so a car can be produced every 20 minutes, once the first car taking 35 minutes has been produced.

Henry also proposed building a demonstration version of the full engine, with a smaller storage capacity: " perhaps for a first machine ten ( columns ) would do, with fifteen wheels in each ".

We can solve for the temperature of the compressed gas in the engine cylinder as well, using the ideal gas law.

While over the far side of the Moon, the Command / Service Module's Service Propulsion System engine burned for six minutes and fifteen seconds, braking the spacecraft into an orbit around the Moon with a low point ( pericynthion ) of 58. 3 and a high point ( apocynthion ) of 170. 4 nautical miles ( 108. 0 and 315. 6 km, respectively ).
