THE SEWER GAS LAMP OF LONDON 🇬🇧 Tucked away down Carting Lane—right behind the luxurious Savoy Hotel off the Strand—stands a tall, green Victorian street lamp that looks like any other antique gas light in London. But this lamp holds a pungent distinction: it is the last surviving sewer gas destructor lamp in the capital. In the late 19th century, London's newly built underground sewer network generated dangerous pockets of volatile methane and foul-smelling gases. In 1894, inventor Joseph Webb patented an ingenious solution: a street lamp connected directly down into the sewer line below. The heat of the burning gas mantles created an upward thermal draught, pulling volatile methane from the sewers into the flame, burning off the dangerous build-up while sterilising the horrific stench. Because Carting Lane sat directly downhill from the opulent Savoy Hotel, its residents and staff quickly gave the alley an irreverent Cockney nickname that still sticks today: "Farting Lane." While modern sewers rely on electric fans and the lamp has since been retrofitted to run primarily on mains gas, this lone cast-iron sentinel remains lit 24 hours a day, burning off whatever sewer fumes rise up from the depths.

Instead of storing wind and solar power inside chemical lithium cells, this 35-story tower in China stores electricity by lifting giant blocks of concrete against gravity. Built in Rudong, Jiangsu province alongside Energy Vault, the EVx gravity energy storage facility stands nearly 400 feet tall and holds a 100-megawatt-hour grid capacity. When nearby wind farms produce excess electricity, computer-controlled electric winches hoist massive 24-ton composite blocks (made from local soil, sand, and recycled waste) to the top of the tower, converting electrical energy into gravitational potential energy. When the grid needs power, the blocks are lowered back down — spinning the hoist motors in reverse as regenerative generators to deliver electricity at over 80% round-trip efficiency without a single gram of lithium.

When the cost of energy goes up due to these Data Centers using the National Grid, it'll be the people paying extra to cover the costs not to mention the water consumption for cooling. If the military can transport Micro reactors by road for deployment, why can't these places use these instead of using up the energy required to keep a Region with essential power that already costs a fortune?

I'd pull out my camping gear, spark up the fire pit and enjoy the night sky without the light pollution!!

Silence. It's the greatest weapon you can create for yourself. Either for yourself or against others, it's magic.

Nanoparticles in Coco-Cola and Pepsi-Cola A 2017 study has detected the presence of fluorescent nanoparticles in two of the most popular drinks worldwide: Coco-Cola and Pepsi-Cola. These nanoparticles (NPs) are categorized as foodborne nanoparticles, with some supermarket foods containing these NPs that were either produced during the manufacturing process, or artificially added for the following reasons: Enhance flavor Facilitate nutrient absorption Extend shelf life Produce brighter colours The Gates foundation started investing in both companies in 2002. These Nanoparticles are composed of hydrogen, carbon and oxygen with a graphitic structure that can pass the blood brain barrier.

Your cat when you go to the toilet....

What makes a matchstick light is phosphorus. Phosphorus is what links the Adenine,Thymine, Cytosine and Guanine. This means three things in one about the human being. 1. The human being is a Spark of Energy. 2. Roughly 98% of the body's potassium is located inside your cells 3. The soul is Light. Light comes from The Word Of The Fire. All the secret codes for man to know who he is, are in plain sight.

New Lanark Thread Mills. Once a Cotton spinning Empire and now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. A stunning eyeful especially during the Autumn. Much like Paisley, Cotton Mills and the famous Paisley Pattern.

When you summon the Will to endure another trip to the local shops for supplies by thinking if you get there early, there will be less people.....

You'll either be walking through the Field of Reeds or devoured by the Crocodile Ammit unless you have bought yourself some magic spells to pass through the gates of judgement. The Spells of coming Forth by Day. The Book of the Dead was an afterlife survival manual. It gave passwords, secret names of the monstrous gatekeepers and demons blocking the paths so the soul could safely pass them. Spells to ensure the body's senses (sight, speech, breathing) were magically reactivated after mummification and a Legal Defense: The exact statements to make during the trial of the heart to satisfy Osiris and evade the jaws of Ammit. The Egyptians did not view death as an end, but as a treacherous, multi-stage journey through the underworld (Duat). In other words, your Life is a side quest to until you Die and then you are judged on your Life. Gotta love this reality.

I can remember traveling to the airport to pick up my parents after their holiday and they had matching shellsuits on coming through the arrivals lounge. They were trendy back in the late 80's but this was in 98 and I was never so mortified in my life.

The Old Human costume becomes boring, shedding the skin to become a better version of you, is you shifting your perspective and walking through the door that's always been waiting.

Non Dual Consciousness is Understanding that you are the Observer observing reality, the key is not to absorb it. Filtering out the negative aspect over the positive becomes the role.
