Chinese students at Hunan University have invented a system to increase the
electricity generation of small and medium-sized hydropower stations during dry
seasons.

"Traditional hydroelectric power stations have a fixed water flow
requirement vans slip on pas
cher , which means electricity outputs drop dramatically during the
dry season," said Lyu Mingsheng, one of the students.

The invention fixes the current situation where power output is directly
proportional to river flow, allowing small and medium-sized hydropower plants to
maintain output throughout all seasons, according to Lyu.

Improving generating capacity is expected to reduce the number of hydropower
plants needed in the future, therefore lessening their effect on the
environment.

"The new technology will transform the dam construction in China vans
toy story noir , making it more environment-friendly," he said.

Lyu cited official figures published in 2013 which stated China had more than
45,000 hydropower stations in rural areas, with the total installed capacity
exceeding 65 million kilowatt (kW).

If the new system was applied to all of these stations, the total installed
capacity would increase by 19.5 million kW, almost equivalent to the output of
the Three Gorges Dam which is 22.4 million kW vans toy story pas
cher , Lyu added.

The core technology has received 10 national patents and several companies
have signed cooperation agreements with Lyu's team.

It's rare that professional -athletes are able to retire on their own terms -
so rare that we remember vividly the ones who do. Peyton Manning -retired -after
his Denver Broncos won Super Bowl 50. -Player-coach Bill Russell stepped down
after leading the Boston Celtics to the 1961 NBA championship. Joe DiMaggio
retired after his New York Yankees won the 1951 World Series.

On July 12, San Antonio Spurs legend Tim Duncan left the NBA in similar
fashion. Although the Spurs didn't win a championship last season (losing to the
Oklahoma City Thunder in the Western Conference semifinals), Duncan retired in
much the same way that he played the game - quietly, efficiently,
professionally. The Spurs released a short statement, and that was that.

There was no press conference vans sk8 hi slim
pas cher , no ghost-written -essay in Sports Illustrated. No plans
for a "farewell tour," the type Duncan's contemporary Kobe Bryant embarked upon
last season in order to soak up national attention, collect a
-franchise-hampering paycheck and stunt the development of several of the
Lakers' young players.

Duncan's ego has always been considerably smaller than his 6-foot 11-inch
(2.11-meter) frame. Despite a gaudy resume that includes five NBA titles, three
NBA Finals MVP awards and 15 All-Star teams, Duncan has always behaved more like
a role player than the greatest power forward in league history. Even his
nickname ("The Big Fundamental") implies substance over style.

Duncan's personality made him a great fit in San Antonio, a mid-sized media
market far away from the glamor of Los Angeles and the venom of New York City.
How appropriate vans
sk8 hi slim noir , too, that he played his entire career for Gregg
Popovich, a curmudgeonly coach who has always sought players willing to
sacrifice their individual needs for the overall good of the team.

During an NBA off-season dominated by flashy free agent signings, Duncan was
able to retire with far less fanfare than many of his peers. Even better, he was
able to do so at the time of his choosing, on his own terms.

NAIROBI vans
sk8 hi blanche cuir , March 12 (Xinhua) -- Kenyan youngster Andrew
Lorot is out to sign off his junior running career with the gold medal when he
competes for his nation at Saturday' s 4th CAA Africa Cross Country
Championships in Yaounde, Cameroon.

Lorot, 19, won silver the last time out when the 2014 edition was held in
Kampala, Uganda and was part of the Kenyan contingent of 24 runners and nine
officials who left for Cameroon on Wednesday to defend the overall title they
have held since the continental showpiece was launched in 2011.

"This time I have no problem, I' m so strong than when I was going to Uganda.
Remember that time we trained in Ngong (Nairobi) vans
sk8 hi cuir noir , but this time, the conditions here in Kigari
(Embu County) are different, I won silver last time and now I' m praying God to
help me win the gold," Lorot told local media house, Citizen before the team
left for West Africa.

"I have prepared well, and my team mates are well prepared vans sk8 hi
cuir , I have seen the team' s strength and I can assure you we are
going to work as a team in order to defend the title that we took in Uganda,"
the runner who was beaten to silver by countryman Moses Mukono in Kampala
affirmed.

He has the additional inspiration of lining up against his step-brother,
Nixon Kiplagat, who won the men junior 8km race just ahead of him in a family
1-2 at the IAAF PermitAK National Cross Country Championships in Nairobi.

"The big challenge was that part of the course was water-logged," added
Lorot, the African junior cross-country silver medallist told IAAF after the
race.

"I knew I could win but I let him do it today because he is my brother. We
share the same father but different mothers. I will train thoroughly for Yaounde
to have the victory to myself."
