Book excerpt: In the 1890s, electric lighting and improved roads were just the beginning of the changes about to take place in Flushing, New York. Once a rural village of wide-open farms and magnificent estates, Flushing transformed into a community of more than 200,000 people and quickly became one of the busiest neighborhoods in Queens. Flushing explores these dramatic changes with many never-before-seen images.
Download or read book The Culture of Flushing written by Jamie Benidickson and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The flush of a toilet is routine. It is safe, efficient, necessary, nonpolitical, and utterly unremarkable. Yet Jamie Benidickson's examination of the social and legal history of sewage in Canada, the United States, and the United Kingdom demonstrates that the uncontroversial reputation of flushing is deceptive. The Culture of Flushing investigates and clarifies the murky evolution of waste treatment. It is particularly relevant in a time when community water quality can no longer be taken for granted.
Download or read book Faith and Fear in Flushing written by Greg W. Prince and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2009-04-01 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Mets fan is an Amazin’ creature whose species finds its voice at last in Greg Prince’s Faith and Fear In Flushing, the definitive account of what it means to root for and live through the machinations of an endlessly fascinating if often frustrating baseball team. Prince, coauthor of the highly regarded blog of the same name, examines how the life of the franchise mirrors the life of its fans, particularly his own. Unabashedly and unapologetically, Prince stands up for all Mets fans and, by proxy, sports fans everywhere in exploring how we root, why we take it so seriously, and what it all means. What was it like to enter a baseball world about to be ruled by the Mets in 1969? To understand intrinsically that You Gotta Believe? To overcome the trade of an idol and the dissolution of a roster? To hope hard for a comeback and then receive it in thrilling fashion in 1986? To experience the constant ups and downs the Mets would dispense for the next two decades? To put ups with the Yankees right next door? To make the psychic journey from Shea Stadium to Citi Field? To sort the myths from the realities? Greg Prince, as he has done for thousands of loyal Faith and Fear in Flushing readers daily since 2005, puts it all in perspective as only he can.

Download or read book A Flushing System for Combined Sewer Cleansing written by Darrell W. Monroe and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Full-scale tests were conducted on two variable-slope test sewers (12- and 18- inch diameters). During the tests, solids were first allowed to build up in both test sewers by passing domestic sewage through the sewers for durations of 12 to 40 hours and then were removed by hydraulic flushing. Formulas were developed which gave satisfactory predictions of several cleansing efficiencies and wave depths for the flush waves and sewer sizes studied. A prototype flush station developed can be inserted in a manhole to provide the functions necessary to pick up sewage from the sewer, store it in a coated fabric tank, and release the stored sewage as a flush wave upon receipt of an external signal. An estimate of costs of periodically flushing combined sewer laterals are given.

Download or read book Flushing of Small Shallow Lakes written by Claud C. Lomax and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flushing of a lake means reducing the pollution by clean inflow with an equivalent outflow of polluted water, a process by which clean water both displaces and mixes with the polluted water. Parameters influencing the effectiveness of the cleansing stream, most important and manageable under laboratory conditions, were investigated. Parameters studied were: inlet velocity, inlet width, depth, and basin shape. Testing was conducted on two depths, two inlet widths, three inlet velocities, and four elliptical basins. Primary purpose of the project was to evaluate the various parameters to determine their influences on flushing efficiency, and develop prediction equations based on geometric and flow characteristics of the systems tested. Analyses were completed to develop a test program, analyze the system for comparison with experimental results, and develop prediction equations which incorporate analytical and experimental results of the study.
