![]() ![]() Due to its anonymity, a complexly structured online market in mostly illicit goods stands out from the myriad and manifold manifestations of the Dark Web. Eluding the search engines, the so-called Dark Web is an apparently lawless no-man’s land accessible only by means of special softwares. Within this non-place, an encrypted network of total anonymity has been developed and is still developing day after day. The submerged part, on the other hand, which makes up more than 90% of the iceberg, corresponds to the vast hidden and not indexed sphere known as the Deep Web. the digital realm we all know and navigate by means of search engines, social networks, blogs, news sites and so forth. It also protects those who simply value their privacy and aren’t doing anything illegal but don’t want their browsing habits tracked.The Internet can be likened to an iceberg: its tip represents the Surface Web, i.e. Facebook recently established a direct connection to Tor, allowing users in these areas anonymous access to their site. Some governments censor the Surface Web, blocking certain web sites and monitoring their citizens’ online activities. The software was developed by the United States government to protect whistleblowers, dissidents who live under repressive political regimes and others who would be in danger if their identities were compromised. Like the Deep Web itself, Tor does have legitimate uses. This makes Tor users much more difficult to track online. It also anonymizes users by bouncing their web traffic through a randomized series of encrypted servers located around the world. So if the Deep Web isn’t indexed by normal search engines, how do users navigate it? The answer lies in browser software called The Onion Router, or Tor for short. The Deep Web contains pages where criminals use a type of digital currency called Bitcoin to trade and sell everything from stolen credit card numbers to illegal drugs. Unfortunately, cyber criminals also use the Deep Web for communication and to hide their illicit activities. Aerospace engineers could find data on how to build safer airplanes. Doctors could access information currently hidden in archived databases about new research and medical procedures. The information locked away in the Deep Web is valuable. Collectively these resources hidden from search engines are called the Deep Web. Subpages on public web servers that are not linked to other pages do not show up in search results, but if someone knows the page URL they can access the page directly by typing it into their browser’s address bar. Hidden pages include unpublished blog posts, forums that force users to log in before they can view the contents and news sites that archive their stories for paid subscribers only after a specific amount of time. While the web is growing constantly, cybersecurity experts know the vast majority of web pages are inaccessible to search engines. These publically viewable pages are part of the Surface Web, but they’re just the tip of an iceberg. Modern search engines like Google, Yahoo and Bing use programs called spiders that crawl the web and find links between the main page on a site and its linked subpages. The development of automated search engines made it much easier for users to find information. ![]() It was cumbersome and links were often outdated. In the early days of the web there were no search engines, and people relied on finding information using pages with long lists of HTML links. The World Wide Web is a vast and always changing network of web pages. ![]() ![]() ![]() ranging between 6”-12” and above 12” constitute 16% and 12% of all pipes installed, respectively. This suggests that the utility market is by far the largest application of HDD, and can be as the industry’s “bread and butter”. In the maxi-size category, the survey revealed that 47% were custom-built, 40% produced by American Augers Inc., and the balance manufactured by others.Īnalysis of the type and diameter of pipes installed by the respondents during the 1995-96 construction season revealed that 72% of all products installed have an outside diameter (O.D.) of 4” or smaller. (“Ditch Witch”), and American Augers Inc. Vermeer Manufacturing Co., The Charles Machine Works, Inc. Seventy-three percent of the mini and midi size rigs were manufactured by three outfits, namely From these, 38% can be classified as mini-size rigs, 33% as midi size rigs, and 29% as maxi-size rigs. The 49 contractors that responded to the survey owned a total of 185 drilling rigs. Most HDD outfits can be described as non-specialty contractors with 41% involved in both the utility market and the pipeline industry, while 35% are involved in three or more different applications. Environmental applications of directional drilling are relatively new as only 28% of the outfits indicated having experience with the installation of horizontal wells and 17% in projects involving horizontal sampling. Nearly 90% of the outfits surveyed indicated that they were involved in the utility industry, in comparison to 74% in the municipal market and 63% in the pipeline industry. Topics investigated include: typical company profiles bidding and estimating practices types of projects conducted productivity and possible areas of future research.Īn analysis of the survey results revealed that 60% of contractors surveyed are relatively small outfits with annual revenues of up to seven millions dollars (U.S.). ![]() This paper presents the results obtained from analyzing 49 survey responses from HDD contractors in the United States and Canada. An industry survey was conducted in order to gain a better understanding of this multi-billion dollar industry, which is relatively unfamiliar to many in the construction sector. Applications of horizontal directional drilling span across the civil engineering spectrum from mineral and oil exploration to the installation of telecommunication lines. Currently, in North America alone, there are 17 manufacturers of HDD rigs and accessories and several hundred dedicated horizontal directional drilling contractors. Perhaps the fastest growing segment in the underground trenchless construction industry is Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD). ![]() Overall, the survey opens a window into the Horizontal Directional Drilling industry, providing valuable information regarding: technology capabilities limitations and applications characteristics of the industry and the outfits which provide the service and the risks and concerns that a contractor faces when performing HDD installations. As for consultants and owners, the information included in the report may prove invaluable as the statistics regarding productivity and installation costs can be used for obtaining budgetary figures and constructing preliminary schedules. ![]() Manufacturers can greatly benefit from the sections dealing with industry needs and typical problems encountered during directional drilling projects. Additionally, contractors can learn from the collective experience of others when attempting to enter a new field such as environmental installations. The information provided in the report is intended to enable HDD contractors to benchmark themselves in comparison with industry statistics. The following report was prepared for contractors, manufacturers, owners, consultants, and others involved in Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) projects. ![]() ![]() ![]()

Because concepts of self and other tend to be both behavioral/actions (“what I can do” and “what you can do”) and physical (“what I look like” and “what you look like”), Season 53’s stories act like mirrors in which children see themselves and their families and like windows framing the wide diversity of our world, as children are encouraged to develop a positive self-identity and learn to treat each other with kindness, fairness, and respect. As beloved and brand-new Sesame friends model the power of relationships, children come to understand the ways we are connected to each other and belong in our families and communities. Our approach builds on children’s emerging sense of empathy and keen interest in learning about others. Preschool children will see themselves in engaging, developmentally appropriate stories as they explore concepts and language that help them learn ways to honor and rejoice in themselves, their friends and families, and the wider community.

But what makes everything better is the gigantic 31 gallons fuel tank. As it offers a combined mileage of 14 MPG which might not be class-leading but sure is very good. The V6 engine the Express comes with might be slower on the road, but it sure is efficient. Each passenger van comes channeled as an RWD variant mated to an automatic transmission unit with a V6 engine, except for the Sprinter that is equipped with a turbocharged straight-four engine. In terms of acceleration, Ford’s Transit and Mercedes’ Sprinter take 6.8 and 11.2 seconds to the 60mph mark, assuming positions at the opposite ends of the table. ![]() However, Express does fall behind Ford Transit which is simply much faster on the road. However, load it fully and you might get a smoother experience when driven mannerly.ĭespite being slower on the road, the V6 engine of Express surpasses the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter and shares the same stats with its sibling GMC Savana. ![]() So do not expect it to eliminate medium to large bumps so easily.

The engine is mated with an eight-speed automatic transmission which works smoothly as intended. But as standard, you get a 4.3 Litre V6 gas engine which produces 276 horsepower and a torque of 298 lb-ft. The 2022 Chevrolet Express 3500 Passenger Van is available in three engine configurations.
