The Making Of A Solar REIT: By The Numbers

Leave a comment

By Tom Konrad, Contributor

Power REIT (NYSE:PW Disclosure: I own PW stock) announced yesterday that it had closed on a deal to buy approximately 100 acres of land leased to the owners of over 20 MW of solar projects near Fresno, CA.  This will be the company’s second solar transaction and increases the share of its revenue from solar to 21%.  These two solar transactions put PW well on its way to becoming the nation’s first REIT to get most of its revenue from renewable energy.  The balance of its revenue comes from leasing its railroad property.  Whiile not renewable energy, rail is also a green asset in that transport by rail is much more fuel efficient than the alternative: trucking. …read more

Old Cylinder Head Gasket

Leave a comment

By VengeFulHemi

I started a thread in the past and had such great help help from so many of you, and i’m very thankful to you. I have been having such a hellish time trying to get my PW back into service. I got everything I need, with the exception of the cylinder head gasket. In fact, I just picked up the one today that I had ordered last week and they certainly don’t match. The one on the left is the original metal gasket, and the one on the right is the new one(part# as per the cust serv rep from generac). I am sick and tired of going through all of this. My question is: since the cyl head gasket is metal and is still in tact, can it be reused on the new cyl head(of course providing I clean it up)? If so, what would I clean it up with? Many thanks to all.

According to a tweet from Production Weekly, “Principle photography on TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES, is scheduled to begin this April in New York.” Of course, it is important to note that this news has not yet been confirmed by Bay or the production, but PW is typically reliable.

Paramount shut down pre-production on Ninja Turtles last year, citing script problems as the primary reason. The project had already been criticized by fans for changing the nature of the turtles’ origin story and reportedly making them aliens. However, it remains to be seen how much has changed since the rewrite.
