Delaware - a dumping point for New York Sub way cars

Narendra.s.v — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 17:24:33 +0000

No one has ever thought where the old unused New York City sub way cars are abandoned. Well, the Redbird Reef off the coast of Slaughter Beach is the dumping site of all New York City sub way cars, according to Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control.

Tons and tons of old used New York City subway cars are being added to the already added up cars under the blue waters. Though environmental groups have cried fowl over dumping of cars into the ocean bed, it has been seen that the redbird reef had only augmented fish growth. The New York Times has quoted Artificial Reef Program manager of the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control’s Jeff Tinsman, as saying that the redbird reef was basically a luxury condominium for fish. The authorities have claimed that these artificial reefs benefited not only the environment but also businesses.

The environmental groups had opposed the dumping of Redbird cars as they have small levels of asbestos. But the state and the federal environmental officials had given the green signal for dumping cars in Delaware saying that asbestos posed a threat to humans only if it was airborne and it was not a risk for marine life.

Well, the trend of creating artificial reef is growing in the US, with more states catching on to the trend. But the only problem is that there are only a limited number of retired New York Sub way cars available. Under this situation, the states are experimenting with other available things like abandoned automobiles, refrigerators and washing machines for creating artificial reefs.

Though these can create artificial reefs, the question is whether everything should be dumped into the sea. It really can change the indigenous environment, which can bring in far reaching consequences.

Is It Time To Change Your Laptop Battery?

seema — Sat, 20 Jun 2009 01:30:04 +0000

Everyone needs time to recharge their batteries on occasion. But for laptops to run optimally, they need to change them. Most laptop manufacturer’s suggest swapping out your laptop battery about every two years, which is largely dependent upon how much the battery is used. To get full value out of your power source, be sure to keep in mind the following guidelines before making the switch.

In order to remove the battery, save anything you’re working on and turn the laptop off. Make sure the Power indicator is off before proceeding. Remove any and all cables attached to the laptop and turn it over so that the back of the computer faces you. Slide the battery’s locking latch to the ‘unlocked’ position, and slide the release latch to free the battery. Carefully pull the entire battery pack forward to remove it, and set it aside. Do not dispose of a spent or broken battery pack, but instead return it to the nearest Toshiba dealer. Additionally, do not store the battery in direct sunlight, heat, or near metallic objects. Instead, keep it in a cool, dry place where it is not likely to be punctured or crushed in any way.

Depending on the model of laptop you own, there will be different guidelines to follow for replacing your battery. Please consult you user’s manual before installing a new laptop battery for specific directions.

So if your 312-0416 battery doesn’t have the lifespan it once had, maybe it’s time to switch it out.
