How Does Water Free Urinal Work?


A more recent innovation is urinals that do not use water at all. Models introduced by Waterless Company in 1992 and others in 2001 by Falcon Waterfree Technologies and Sloan Valve Company, as well as Duravit, utilize a trap insert filled with a sealant liquid instead of water. The lighter-than-water sealant floats on top of the urine collected in the U-bend, preventing odors from being released into the air. Although the cartridge and sealant must be periodically replaced, the system saves anywhere between 15,000 and 45,000 gallons (approx. between 56,800 and 170,000 liters) of water per urinal per year.

Other companies, such as URIMAT do not use a cartridge; instead they have developed an outlet system that traps the odor, preventing the smell often present in toilet blocks. They can be installed in high-traffic facilities and in situations where providing a water supply may be difficult or where water conservation is desired. Due to high-level water restrictions, Brisbane has mandated conversion to waterless urinals and flush urinals are rarely seen.

But how these waterless urinals work? You will learn more on this site: http://www.falconwaterfree.com/how/stage2.htm

Master Rapper is Dead??




Francis Durango Magalona
(October 4, 1964 - March 6, 2009), also known as FrancisM, Master Rapper, and The Man From Manila, was credited as being the first Filipino rapper in the Philippines to successfully crossover to the mainstream. He is also popularly known as the "King of Pinoy Rap" and is one of the most idolized, celebrated and influential rappers within the genre. He was purported to have died today (March 6, 2009) but we are still awaiting reports.

Magalona, 43, was diagnosed in August, 2008, with leukemia at the Medical City Hospital, Mandaluyong. He appealed for privacy: “I don’t want a media circus. I want privacy with my family. What I’d rather talk about is how we can solicit blood donations to replace the supply that I have consumed in the hospital.” Francis’ wife, Pia Arroyo-Magalona, said: “It was very gradual, hindi siya biglaang lu

mabas. We don’t want to use the word ‘curable,’ but the doctors say it’s treatable. ”

After his treatment and discharge, he made his return on Eat Bulaga together with Ely Buendia, who was also recently discharged.

Francis Magalona died on March 6, 2009 at 12:00 because of his leukemia. A short tribute for Francis Magalona was aired during his death in Eat Bulaga.

Mayweather, Jr. Out of Pacman's Picture?




“I didn’t want to fight Mayweather next because he’s a boring fighter,” Roach told British paper Morning Star during Pacquiao’s whirlwind visit in Hatton’s hometurf – Manchester and London.

“We need the best fighters fighting each other because of other sports competing with us. If we win, I don’t have a lot of interest in fighting Mayweather,” said Roach.

“There’s him and I’d be a liar if I said I don’t think I can get another crack at Floyd Mayweather Jr.,” said Hatton.

Worst American Idol Season


Call it what you will -- the downfall of pop music or its savior -- there's no denying that 'American Idol' is a fickle god-maker.

Some winners have found great success (hello, Kelly!), some have been dumped by their labels (so sorry, Ruben and Taylor), while some also-rans have gone on to bigger and better things.

Eight seasons in, has American Idol run out of gas? That's what some viewers have been saying, and the smell of desperation does seem to be behind many of the changes producers have made this season.

Hot Air Balloon Festival - Clarkfield, Pampanga



The CDC is looking to grow the Clark region, not only internationally, but as a major Filipino destination of tourism and relaxation. For this event and all subsequent events in Clark, the area will become even more easily assessable from Manila. With the completion of the SCTEX this year, and the soon completion of the new SCTEX Clark Interchange in December, you will be able to exit directly into the Freeport from the highways, only a couple Kilometers from the entrance of the balloon festival. If you have attended the Balloon Fiesta in previous years or have been to the Clark Freeport, you know that the last few kilometers are the most frustrating as you exit NLEX to pass through the intense traffic in Dau and Angeles City to the Clark Main gate; sometimes taking as long as an additional 30 minutes. That will soon be a thing of the past and make the balloon festival and Clark in general, an even more pleasant destination.

Terrific, Wild and Unbelievable Wedding Pictures



Wedding is a sacred event for each couple. Remembering the event is I think one of the most sweetest things a couple could ever do. By seeing wedding photographs, refreshes pair's most vital part of their lives. What else can you say if a wedding is done in a very unusual way like the "Jay Contreras (Kamikazee) and Sarah Jane Abad (former child star) Wedding"? It was celebrated in Paco Cemetery! I wonder if this style was inspired from Gun's and Roses' hit, "November Rain". But anyway, it is still the best wedding event I have ever seen.
