July 15, 2025 @ 20:08 Good evening family & friends❣️ I finished up the laundry today, had it all hung well before noon. Neighbor came and took the rest of the tree off our shed (I should go take another picture) that had fallen a couple of days ago*. Charlie and her sister walked over, brushed Maisie, watered the garden for me, and applied a last coat of spray paint to the tires. The work Bill did on the front porch* is working out SO WELL and we've had several neighbors come over to comment on how nice it looks 😀. I slept a lot. Oh yeah...and there was something stinky in here, like something died in the wall, for nearly a week...when Bill was here this morning he even commented on it. While I was sleeping Pete tore apart the kitchen to see what he could find - nothing. Later I happened to look behind the microwave and there was a package of meat of some sort - hard to tell by this point - that had fallen behind and rotted and dripped down the back of the tool cart that I use for a counter/cupboard space...and at the pool on the floor were too many maggots to count! Oh. My. Goodness. WHAT A MESS!! But Pete got it all cleaned up in here and now it smells fine. (That would also account for the big influx of flies we've had in here this last week!) Ordered a pizza for dinner [chiachow.net/what-i-eat], I had a coupon, and did a Tuesday Titters post [chia.owly.net/tuesday-titters-…]. OK, I guess that's it, I have a whopper of a headache and am going to bed soon. I will see you in the morning❣️🙏🥱🌛💤

That brings back a memory. Blessed mom cooked dinner. I think I was in middle school. I didn’t want to eat anymore meat. So I threw it behind the refrigerator. The apt had high ceilings and the fridge had no cabinets above it. A week later maggots were crawling out from under there. Mom moved the fridge, saw the meat and maggots. So yucky. Glad she let it slide. She probably thought it was my little sister who did. She was mom’s favorite. 😁

Each week, I stand before a group of men and women suffering varying stages of dementia. I am aware as I stand there that unless the Holy Spirit breaks through their confusion and forgetfulness, I will be speaking into the air. Nothing I say during those 30 minutes or so will have any chance of making an impact on their lives.

And so, with that awareness, I always begin our time together praying aloud for the Lord to open all of our minds and hearts as I speak words of encouragement, exhortation, hope and promise.

But – isn’t that what we should all always do whenever we speak – or plan to speak – with someone about the Lord? Shouldn’t we always – even if it’s a quickly breathed prayer – shouldn’t we always ask the Holy Spirit to speak His truths through us? Don’t we know that just because a person has an intact memory doesn’t mean they also have ears to hear and hearts that are soft to God's voice.

And – isn’t that what you and I should always do when we open our Bibles to read? Don’t we want from the Holy Spirit more than mere ‘information’? Don’t we also want from Him ‘revelation’?

“Rejoice always; Pray without ceasing; In everything, give thanks, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18)

What Energy-Saving Mobile Crushing Solutions Are There for High-Cost Stones?

In today’s mining and aggregate operations, the cost of processing certain types of stone can be significantly high due to factors such as hardness, transport distance, and energy consumption. For operators dealing with these high-cost materials, adopting energy-efficient technologies is no longer optional—it’s a key factor in staying profitable. In this context, mobile crushing solutions are becoming increasingly attractive due to their lower setup costs, flexibility, and energy-saving potential. From innovative drive systems to intelligent automation, modern mobile stone crusher units are evolving to meet the demands of sustainable and cost-effective crushing.

This article explores various energy-saving mobile crushing solutions(trituradora de piedra portatil) suitable for processing expensive stone materials, with a focus on practicality and return on investment.

Why Energy Efficiency Matters in High-Cost Stone Operations

Rising Fuel and Electricity Prices


Fuel and power costs account for a significant portion of total operating expenses in crushing operations. When working with harder stones like granite, basalt, or dense river rock, energy consumption increases substantially. Without efficient systems in place, the profitability of each ton of processed stone drops.

Environmental Regulations and Carbon Emissions


In regions such as Latin America and Southeast Asia, governments are tightening environmental standards. Crushing equipment that reduces emissions and uses less fuel helps operators comply with regulations while improving their environmental footprint.

Hybrid and Electric Drive Systems

Diesel-Electric Mobile Crushers


One of the most effective solutions is the use of diesel-electric drive systems. These systems allow the mobile stone crusher to run on diesel fuel while generating electricity for other components. The engine only powers a generator, and all crushing and conveying functions are electric.

This setup significantly reduces fuel consumption compared to traditional hydraulic systems and allows the crusher to run on external power if available, further improving efficiency.

Fully Electric Portable Crushers


When access to grid power or solar generation is possible, fully electric portable stone crusher units can operate with near-zero emissions and minimal energy costs. These setups are ideal for long-term projects where power infrastructure is available or can be set up quickly.

Intelligent Crushing Control Systems

Adaptive Load Control and Automation


Modern mobile crushing units are equipped with smart control systems that monitor feed levels, power usage, and load distribution. These systems automatically adjust crusher settings and conveyor speeds in real time, ensuring optimal performance with the least amount of energy consumed.

Such automation is particularly beneficial when using a gravel crusheror rock crusher(trituradora de rocas) on variable material sizes, where manual control could result in over-crushing and wasted energy.

Remote Monitoring and Efficiency Reporting


Some advanced models allow remote monitoring of fuel consumption, throughput, and equipment condition. This data helps operators identify energy-wasting patterns and make informed decisions about scheduling, load balancing, and maintenance routines.

Material-Specific Crushing Strategies

Pre-Screening to Reduce Load


One of the simplest ways to save energy is by removing fines and unwanted material before they reach the crusher. Installing a pre-screen on the mobile stone crusher allows smaller particles to bypass the crushing chamber, which reduces load and energy use.

This approach is particularly useful when processing mixed materials, such as riverbed stone or demolition debris, where a large volume of the feed is already small enough.

Selective Crushing for Valuable Aggregates


Rather than crushing all material to the same size, energy-efficient systems allow for selective crushing. For example, a gravel crusher(trituradora de piedra para grava) may be adjusted to produce a specific grade of material with minimal overprocessing, reducing energy use while maximizing output quality.

Lightweight and Modular Equipment Design

Reduced Transport and Setup Energy


Many newer portable stone crusher models are built with lightweight frames and modular designs. This not only simplifies transportation between sites but also reduces the energy needed for loading, unloading, and setup.

Space-Saving for Urban or Remote Locations


Energy efficiency isn’t only about operation—it also includes reducing idle time and inefficient site layouts. Mobile crushers that are compact and easy to deploy minimize idle running hours, fuel usage, and material handling effort.

Conclusion: Invest in Smarter, Greener Crushing


As the cost of raw materials and energy continues to rise, mining and aggregate producers need crushing solutions that combine mobility with efficiency. Whether using a diesel-electric mobile stone crusher, a fully electric portable stone crusher, or an intelligent rock crusher system, the goal is the same—maximize output while minimizing energy input.

With the right setup, even high-cost stone becomes economically viable to crush and process. Energy-saving mobile solutions are not only better for the bottom line but also position your operation for future success in a more sustainable, competitive market.

Survival tip ...

Just a bit of advice from an old corrections officer and Deputy Warden.

If you know a person who is on Haloperidol, understand he is very unpredictable and dangerous. Especially when off his meds.

I have dealt with these people for thirty plus years in the maximum security cellblocks. Real Bam Bams. They are very dangerous.

Now one lives very close by. Taking Cisapride and Haloperidol.
A combination contraindicated by the manufacturer. Damned interns and state psycho doctors.

He has been in one of my prisons for a short while, if 5 years of hell is considered short. He is a real problem child. Becomes enraged for no cause. A barely trainable feral animal.

He knows me and I know him. He has exhibited homicidal behaviors in the past. The court let him off easy after trying to kill more than a half dozen people because a girl spurned him. His M.O. is to wait until the early dark hours and set fire to your home. Burn you and yours up.

We don't always get a heads up. These people could be shopping at Krogers next to you and in an instant draw a knife and kill you because you were there.

Remember that the knife is, in these times, the most popular weapon of choice. The knife is silent and requires no ammunition. In close quarters the knife is more dangerous than a handgun or a sword. Knives can be made in the most stringently controlled environment.

Keep vigilant at all times. Watch the behavior of those around you. Body language is a good clue. Are they out of place? What is in their hands?

I have 30 plus years hiking this skill. You need to start now. Try to keep 21 feet or more between you and those you don't know. Keep your weapon at the ready for immediate use.
Be prepared to act without warning to save your loved ones and yourself.

Stay strapped or get clapped.

IDF prevents rescue of trapped Gaza family for 8 hours, 13 killed including 7 children

Israeli forces murdered 13 family members, including 7 children, in an airstrike on their home in #Gaza’s Al-Tuffah neighborhood. The #IDF prevented rescue workers from reaching the trapped family for approximately 8 hours, attacking any attempts to approach with drone strikes. Video footage shows 35-year-old Hala Arafat wounded and pleading for rescue from under the rubble. By the time Palestinian Civil Defense was permitted to enter, all 13 family members had died. The family had returned to their partially destroyed home because they had nowhere else to live.

The Snickers Hi Protein Bar is legit.

It gives you that unmistakeable Snickers flavor profile. The "caramel" is gooey.

The nougat is the most different from the original candy bar. That's where the protein resides and it's much chewy-er than the nougat on the original candy bar. It's also more of a peanut butter flavor, than nougat.

But when combined with the chocolate coating, the caramel, and the peanuts, it mimics the flavor profile of the original Snickers bar well...and it feels decadent. Definitely satisfies that Snickers candy bar itch, and your sweet tooth.

Not bad for only 4 grams of sugar. It has 20 grams of protein from whey, caesin and milk. 10g of fat. 6g of fiber. 20 total carbs, 14 net carbs.

You'd think, after FORTY YEARS of doing my own laundry, cleaning my own home, paying my own bills, cooking my food, having owned two successful businesses, and entertained thousands when I was doing theatre and karaoke I'd treat myself better... think MORE of myself... take some satisfaction knowing I've DONE THE ADULT THING and been successful at it.

But there's nothing. There's no BIG payoff at the end. You just keep walking the path, hoping for the pot of gold and the pot is empty and needs to be washed, just like all the others you've washed in your life.

Sure, you take some solace in having loved a few times and continue to gather the unconditional love of your dogs, but I'm bemused at the lack of contentment.
