bomb-proof wallpaper called X-Flex was developed by Berry Plastics and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. X-Flex contains Kevlar. When the bomb-proof wallpaper is unrolled against brick or cement walls it reinforces the wall against high-impact blasts.

A Mom's Trick to Whiter Teeth
to get whiter teeth , get 2 good products, as well , in promo too ! ... so if you're from any english states, get them for just the post charges ! ;))

Cathy recently discovered a clever to trick to obtain a full strength teeth whitening without breaking the bank or visiting a cosmetic dentist.
Thanks to the trick she discovered, thousands of consumers have been able to whiten their teeth from home.
Step 1:
First get Premium White Pro (use promo code: bedazzled)
Step 2:
Then get Clean Whites (use promo code: save)
(This is key. Use both for results like Cathy's)

The 5.4.7 Art Center is a community arts center designed to raise awareness of fine arts, both visual and performing, making arts accessible to everyone and provide an environment to create and gather knowledge through classes, exhibits and performances. The arts are extremely important to our community in order to maintain and cultivate our identity, our heritage, and our culture.
Art is a visual and tactile experience that we all long for. Each of us has a desire to create something with our own hands that reflects who we are. The Art Center is excited to provide classes in multiple divisions of visual arts such as drawing, painting photography, ceramics, and sculpture as well as the performing arts with theatre and dance. They will also have a gallery space for exhibitions and meeting space. There will be after school and summer classes for kids, classes for adults, weekend workshops, visiting artist demonstrations, and more. This facility is an excellent opportunity for not only Greensburg but also for the larger surrounding area.
5.4.7 Art Center looks forward to reaching all ages with programs for preschoolers to seniors and by giving residents and visitors an opportunity to experience fine art in western Kansas. Everyone has a need to be connected to one another, and the arts are a perfect way to bring us together as a community, to remember our past as well as shape the future.

LEED Platinum certification with greater than 50% energy savings and innovative water-reuse systems.
Strategic window placement, light shelves, and skylights allow most of the incubator to be daylit. A ground-source heat pump uses the moderated temperatures of the ground to provide heat and cooling, and serves an efficient mechanical system, and R-22 walls ensure the building's performance. Roof-mounted photovoltaic panels provide 10% of the building's energy needs.
Water from the building's sinks and showers is collected and reused to flush toilets. Rainwater is collected and used to supplement the graywater system. Rain gardens and other best-management practices for stormwater collection will allow water to naturally re-enter the underground reservoirs in the earth.
Building materials were chosen for storm resistance, durability, and low maintenance. Walls were designed for wind resistance, and a rainscreen system with cement fiberboard panels provides moisture protection.

Add Sticky NoteThe buildings were built with 2x6 exterior walls with blown-in cellulose insulation. The concrete slab was constructed using a "floating floor" design to provide foam insulation from the inside concrete and outside stem wall. Compact Fluorescent Lights (CFLs), low-flow toilets, showerheads, and aerators were used in all apartments. Energy star appliances, when available, were used in the kitchen and laundry room. High efficiency air source heat pumps were used and the apartments achieved an overall HERS Index Score of 64. All interior walls of the apartments were painted with low-VOC paint and bio-based tile was used in the LEED certified 8-plex. Drought resistant landscaping and turf was used on the site as well as an efficient irrigation system.

sustainable elements:
• Abundance of light streaming into the building through the extensive glass facing the north;
• Photovoltaic panels on the roof (north side above museum) to provide electrical power from solar generation;
• The pair of wind turbines also supplies electrical power;
• Numerous light monitors in the garden area roof allowing sunlight to filter into the facility from above;
• Extensive use of awnings, overhang of the roofline and trees to control the amount of light/heat let in;
• Trellis on the roof to provide shading;
• Abundance of windows on the east wall to allow morning light into various areas;

rotors Flettner appliquant l’effet Magnus. Un phénomène physique décrit par le physicien Heinrich Gustav Magnus qui explique la trajectoire courbe — d’une balle de tennis liftée ou d’un ballon (bien tiré) lors d’un coup-franc au football — d’un objet en rotation.
De quoi s’agit-il ? En tournant, l’objet en rotation (balle ou cylindre) va modifier par son frottement la vitesse du courant d’air qu’il traverse : d’un côté, l’air sera accéléré donc la pression va diminuer ; côté opposé, l’écoulement de l’air est freiné et la pression augmente. Résultat : une différence de pression qui crée une force variable selon la vitesse de rotation, et dirigée de la faible pression vers la haute.

Aspirer des filets d'air dans un cylindre (1984)
L'invention de la Turbovoile par le Pr lucien Malavard, l'ingénieur Bertrand Charrier et le commandant Cousteau, marque probablement une étape décisive dans l'histoire de la marine. La Turbovoile permet en effet d'utiliser le vent, dont l'énergie potentielle est extraordinaire, tout comme le faisaient les voiliers d'antan, mais d'employer cette énergie avec un rendement bien supérieur, et sans avoir besoin d'un équipage nombreux.
"L'efficacité d'une voile, explique Bertrand Charrier, est proportionnelle à sa surface et à la dissymétrie de l'écoulement de l'air qu'elle provoque. Cette dissymétrie est exprimée par ce que les physiciens appellent un coefficient de portance. Les études d'aérodynamique ont montré que seuls des profils très épais, voire cylindriques, permettent d'atteindre des coefficients de portance élevés. Seuls, ils permettent de réduire la surface de la voile. Ils augmentent le rendement de la récupération de l'énergie du vent.
"En aspirant à l'intérieur du cylindre une partie de l'air extérieur, on aboutit au fait que les filets d'air qui s'écoulent autour du cylindre restent collés à la paroi de celui-ci. De cette façon, ils se trouvent très fortement défléchis du côté où l'aspiration se produit. Le fonctionnement de la Turbovoile est basé sur ce principe."
La Turbovoile est constituée par un cylindre d'aluminium creux. Elle est dotée, dans sa partie aval, de deux zones d'aspiration, de deux sortes de grillages, situés de part et d'autre de l'axe de symétrie du cylindre. Un volet permet de fermer la zone d'aspiration soit d'un côté, soit de l'autre, selon la direction du vent. Le ventilateur qui tourne au sommet de la Turbovoile aspire l'air nécessaire pour créer le phénomène d'accroissement de la portance.
