Now, Evil is hard for Americans to swallow. The population likes to think of itself as inherently good, perhaps not all the way to Say Louis XIV, who convinced himself that he sat at the right hand of God, but hey, close enough (and yes, some Americans actually do think that, Pat Buchanan comes to mind [Mitch McConnell, anyone?]). The reality is much more painful. Right now, evil predominates, and is bubbling up out of the underground like so much surplus drilling mud. So you have people such as Kirstjen Nielsen, Secretary of Homeland Security, who sets into motion the policies of having heavily-armed government thugs board buses to interrogate passengers ("Where were you born? Are you a citizen? Your Papers!"), something straight out of East German Stadtspolitzei, and is totally shameless about having her goons scoop up some hapless Mexican dairy worker at church or a doctor's office, when he is the only guy who is prepared to do the grunt work of shovelling cow manure and working the milking machines at four in the morning, and you can forget the arguments about "displacing local workers," hey nobody wants to do that work. On go the handcuffs, forget about legal defense, and into the Gulag you go, until the Feds decide to jail you or deport you (or shoot you). Now, like it or not, these are the people that Trump surrounds himself with, and you cannot seriously think that I approve of any of it.
Sometimes luck is precisely targeted — something unusual that arrives just when it’s needed. One of those strokes of luck probably saved my life. It was during a period of ill-advised experimentation with my first homebuilt. For some reason I got the idea I ought to mute the exhaust, and I built two mufflers consisting of concentric tubes, the inner one perforated, with fiberglass packing between them. I slung them underneath the belly, connected to the exhaust pipes by short lengths of spiral-wound flexible stainless-steel tubing.
For example, for a pilot unit for propane dehydrogenation where propane conversion is about 40 to 45% and hydrogen and CO2 are produced as byproducts, designing the system to recycle for propane could be extremely costly to accomplish requiring compression, drying, multiple separations and deep refrigeration. Another extreme case is ethylene epoxidation to ethylene oxide where, even though oxygen is reacted to completion, ethylene per-pass conversion could be 10% or less and the effluent contains significant amounts of CO2 and methane (ballast). Clearly using feeds on a once-through basis for these two examples would generate large volumes of gases requiring thermal oxidation. While the feedstock costs for these programs would be significant, it would be difficult to justify installing the equipment for recovery and recycling them.
I normally start listening to speakers and subwoofers with acoustical recordings since they have a natural, known sound, so any eccentricity of the speaker/subwoofer is more quickly made clear. One album I used for this purpose was the soundtrack for the 1997 film ‘Kundun’ which was composed by Philip Glass. ‘Kundun’ is a biopic about the Dalai Lama and mixes traditional western instruments with Tibetan instruments and choral singing from Buddhist monks. It is an orchestral score that uses subwoofer-frequency bass abundantly from instruments such as bass trombones, contrabassoons, and bass drums, among other low-frequency producing instruments. I started out listening to the recording using the V12 and switched to the X12 about midway through. Even though I had level matched them, the X12 still seemed to have more ‘oomph’ than the V12. However, they both played ‘Kundun’ with authority and both sounded lifelike and true to the recording. While the Kundun original soundtrack isn’t extremely challenging in terms of dynamic range, both Paradigm subwoofers were more than capable of realizing the range of bass sound in this album. Bass drums had a nice tactile thump, and low-pitched string and woodwind instruments droned with a physically palpable buzzing sensation. I did feel that the X12 was a bit more animated than the V12 and did a bit more to capture the peaks in the sound mix, but the difference wasn’t enormous, at least for the volume levels at which I listened to this album.
From the reporter’s perspective, I had survived an occurrence so reliably fatal that I was lucky just to be talking to him.
It’s fair to note that while front-wheel drive has been the standard for front-engine cars for decades, rear-wheel drive in economy cars was never unusual on cars that didn’t have a heavy internal combustion engine up front. Europe in particularly used to be churning out RWD economy cars from the 1930s through the early-to-mid 1970s, before everyone went universally front-engine on applications like this one.

15 – Saudi Arabia’s top prosecutor said the kingdom would seek the death penalty against five men suspected of killing journalist Jamal Khashoggi. The U.S. slapped sanctions on 17 Saudi officials in the toughest action it had taken against the kingdom since the slaying.
3 – A Myanmar court sparked international outrage when it sentenced two Reuters journalists to seven years in prison on charges of illegal possession of official documents. The journalists had been reporting on the brutal crackdown on Rohingya Muslims when they were charged with violating the colonial-era Official Secrets Act. They said they were framed by police and appealed their conviction.
