The author would like to confirm that no deaths occured , during the creation of this piece. All 
suffering was kept to a minimum,as the surgery was sound-proofed .Pain and suffering , 
caused to waiting patients , was due to being forced to read 3yr old mags. Seemingly the 
news was less dire back then.All enamel&blood stained swabs were dumped in the 
appropriate utensils,as per Geneva Convention(section ix, site xxxiv).The cleansing of soiled 
underwear took place ,under supervision, with enviroment friendly detrgents & all offending 
materials disposed of , in accordance with the KyotoAgreement(section mlx11).

The Most Excellent Pipes For House Plumbing

Want effective and long-lasting house plumbing? Here are few examples of the most excellent pipes for house plumbings that will last forever.

The most reliable pipes for house plumbing are ones that will persist for a long time, as well as efficiently do the job.

ABS pipes are the most reliable drainage pipes but PVC is most suitable for underground settings in commercial and industrial constructions. PVC is more heavily used in the United States, where ABS is less popular. Both work well, it all comes down to the codes and allowances of your particular region.

Water

Copper and PEX are the most suitable for the use for water services, with PEX being the most affordable by a landslide. PEX is very simple to work with and cut, as well as attach fittings too. This cuts down the price of material as well as labor time for a plumber.

Copper is more costly, and type M Copper is not permitted in all circumstances as it has thinner walls, but it can be utilized for various domestic applications. Type L copper is more easily employed for commercial and industrial settings as it has thicker walls and will last much longer.

Copper seems fabulous but needs a bit more time to operate with. The positive side of copper though is that it is a more rigorous material and is less likely to get pierced(although possible). Copper needs soldering (melting metal with a low melting point around the pipe and fitting) as well as sanding the element to guarantee it is clear of dirt and grime that necessarily builds upon the outer wall of the pipe and then implementing flux to make it more manageable for a flame to get attracted to the interior of the fitting for that watertight seal.

Cast Iron for drainage

Besides ABS and PVC for drainage pipe, you can also have cast iron pipe for your drains. These are also a more costly option for drainage (like copper is to PEX) and takes more time to work with.


This pipe also demands a bit more care to be hung from the roof as earlier discussed, it’s heavier.

When it comes to plumbing, your code is power. Whatever choice you make, be certain the  hydraulic hose fittings  are to code as a lot of stuff may be immediately sold, but may not be to regulations. This could lead to crashes in plumbing and accidents.

Premium Member The Poetry Club

He enters looking bedraggled, tired and worn out, his skin like Vellum, blank and pale. Lifting his eyes to catch their gaze he gives a slight nod to acknowledge their presence. He scans the room as he would a poem, looking for an Indent that leads to a quiet corner. A half-lit light casts a shadow on the flock wallpaper, (ink stained)! He sits hidden from view, away from plagiaristic eyes. Head in hand scribbling while listening for a new word. A muse sings, emanating an un-heard Beat that guides his rhythm while searching for that elusive vowel.  On the floor a scattering of pencil shavings and broken lead... frustration at the loss of an adjective, the Half-Rhyme squeezes like a tourniquet on the brain...
Frustration runs high as Enjambment slips off the stage and gathers in reflective pools. The Lady Pastoral reads an Elegy to the passing of Sir Rondeau Redouble, he lead a very lonely life, ascending and then diminishing becoming less Didactic, the Footle holds a Lantern for the loss, while the Limerick found it quite humorous. 
At the bar a Stanza of poets gather, disciples of Villanelle, and regale of their latest triumphs in Womans Quarterly. The Epulaeryu's compare their Diamante while eating their babba ghanoosh. At the pool table the movers and shakers decant opinions on the latest 'form' something to do with A.E.I.O.U...Acrostic looks it up and down looking puzzled, Blank Verse remains silent. They dissect, analyse the entrails, the faint hearted look a little Grook. The atmosphere is tense, Verbs drift like dust in the light, causing confusion, they mop their brows with a tired Senryu, the Haiku has little to say on the matter...
A Quintain of intellectuals quietly sit, the Sicilian sipping slim line Monoku's ( no ice ) hoping for a Couplet before the end of the night. On a stool sits the barfly spilling his Bio over the counter top exposing an Ode-ious life, (Metaphorically speaking). On stage the hottest group in town, Chant Royal and the Syllables...singing their latest Sestina, the notes drift across the room resting on the floor, congealing into a Poet-tree fountain, they feel at home as the last act MC McWhirtle enthrals with his Ballad, the barman Ric Tameter calls time, the evening is a Rap, the club is Epic...

Fleas

FLEAS


Alarm clock   shows   Saturday   7 30. Yes, please!
More sleep  - a professional  delight for this catcher of fleas. 
For the  present,   I’m working from home at my ease
And my career may  be in permanent economic squeeze.
Before Covid,my  daily branch-swing to work took 45 minutes in the trees;
Now  no need to commute to the office on Saturdays. 

Just  swing down to breakfast….maybe cheese……..
Hope my wife has prepared something other than bananas and peas.
Gonna spend entire day working  from home,  charging no fees,
Checking  the  family fleas.
Uncle Bob  always has some dragged in from the quays
Usually  bigger  males  picked up somewhere is the seven seas.
So here’s me turning back Bob’s  fur and straining to seize 
The little moving pests, often down on my   knees.

Bob  doesn’t like sitting rock-still like some flea-prison trustees;
Would rather be swinging in the breeze-filled trees.
But he will chat endlessly about the state of the G 7  economies,
The latest stats about Covid 19, or wasp-stings,  or bees,
Vaccination rates   and social distances the length of two-skis,
How many fleas are being chased out of hospitals or galleries,
How many Capitol senators are  bitten in their arteries. 

Bob  assumes such chat is  less tedious in my search to please,
But actually I would prefer silence so that  I could watch in reprise
The  next episode of  ‘Life in the Amazon and Belize’  -
How the trainee-monkeys down south  avoid cough or sneeze
Especially the sort carried by fleas.
Aided by techno stuff  in 100 degrees 
With medicines  and vaccine from Buenos Aires. 
Sooner or later  my  from-home job of ease
Will be  under threat from medical monkey trainees.
Bob will have no more complaints about prison trustees or disease
And I’ll be able to go back swinging  in the breeze
To the office on Saturdays 
And read  the latest  research about fleas
South of the border or overseas.

The Starry Night is an oil-on-canvas painting by the Dutch Post-Impressionist painter Vincent van Gogh. Painted in June 1889, it depicts the view from the east-facing window of his asylum room at Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, just before sunrise, with the addition of an imaginary village.
