This water goes into the Ooms building and is used to warm the place up.

Please join us on Wednesday, July 18th at 6:30 p.m. at the New Freeway Hall, 5018 Rainier Avenue S for a conversation about the characterization and treatment of immigrants as criminals. This evening is being organized by the Department of Women Studies and co-sponsored by Hate Free Zone, Washington Community Action Network and Mujeres of the Northwest.
The University of Washington Women Studies Department, in partnership with Hate Free Zone and Washington CAN!, is offering a panel discussion about the ways in which U.S. immigrants are being characterized and treated as criminals. The purpose of the discussion is to highlight the perspectives and stories that tend to get left out of contemporary debates on immigration. The panelists will provide an overview of contemporary immigration policies and practices and explain their effects on immigrants' lives.
The event offers people working across a broad range of sectors--including the law, journalism, social work, policy, education and business--an opportunity to learn from academic, non-profit and activist experience, research and work with immigrants. The panelists will situate immigration to the United States and contemporary responses to it in the context of deepening global economic and political integration. Our discussion will include attention to historical and contemporary federal, state and local immigration legislation, anxieties about immigration and cultural change, and detention and deportation, with a focus on the ways ideologies of race, class, gender, and heterosexuality shape these aspects of immigration. University of Washington undergraduate students who have been studying immigration will also discuss their own research and perspectives on immigration.

These guys have invented a new type of solar panel that is significantly cheaper and they expect to eventually generate several times more electricity that traditional panels. Seems like there are some good improvements here.
