Pa kakvi su onda ostali 🤔

Jernej Vrtovec in Anže Logar o novih podatkih o obisku izraelskih paraobveščevalcev pri stranki SDS. Je to ovira za sodelovanje s stranko?

Volitve so zelo kompleksen proces, pri katerem sodeluje 20.000 ljudi, zato se nikoli ne zgodijo popolnoma brez vsakih nepravilnosti. Nerazumno bi jih bilo ponavljati, če nepravilnost ni vplivala na izide, če pa je, pa jih seveda moramo... Kolikor vidim, pa se take nepravilnosti niti ne očitajo kaj sele, da bi bile dokazane...

Let Gravity Do the Work: Simple Water Systems Without Electricity In a world increasingly dependent on pumps, pressure, and power, this simple diagram reminds us of an older, smarter principle: gravity never fails. A gravity-fed water system uses elevation—not electricity—to move water where it’s needed, making it one of the most reliable and sustainable ways to manage water. What Is a Gravity-Fed Water System? A gravity-fed system works by placing a water source—such as a tank, cistern, or reservoir—higher than the point of use. Once filled, water naturally flows downward through pipes under its own weight. As the image shows: Water is lifted once (by rain, manual filling, or an initial pump) Storage tanks sit at a higher elevation Water flows continuously to its destination No pump is needed during use This makes the system efficient, quiet, and nearly maintenance-free. How the System Works Key components include: Primary water source This could be a well, rainwater collection system, or manually filled cistern. Elevated storage tanks Mounted on a platform or structure to create sufficient head pressure. Interconnected piping Allows water to balance between tanks and flow smoothly downward. Gravity-fed outlet Delivers water to troughs, irrigation lines, or household use. The arrows in the image illustrate how gravity alone drives the flow. Why No Pump Is a Big Advantage Eliminating pumps offers major benefits: No electricity required No fuel or ongoing energy costs Fewer mechanical failures Reliable operation during power outages This makes gravity-fed systems ideal for rural homes, off-grid sites, farms, and emergency preparedness. Ideal Uses for Gravity Systems Gravity-fed water systems are commonly used for: Livestock watering Garden and field irrigation Rainwater harvesting Remote cabins and homesteads Disaster-resilient water supply Once installed, they quietly deliver water day after day with minimal oversight. Pressure Depends on Height The only “cost” of gravity is elevation. The higher the tank, the greater the pressure at the outlet. Even modest height differences can provide enough pressure for steady flow in irrigation or filling containers. For many uses, slow and steady beats fast and fragile. Sustainability Through Simplicity Gravity-fed systems reflect a core principle of sustainable design: use natural forces instead of fighting them. By working with gravity, these systems reduce environmental impact while increasing resilience. They don’t break easily. They don’t demand constant attention. They just work. Old Wisdom for Modern Challenges As energy costs rise and reliability becomes more important, gravity-fed water systems are making a quiet comeback. They prove that innovation doesn’t always mean complexity—sometimes it means remembering what already works. When water flows by gravity, technology steps aside—and nature takes over.

Christians in Nigeria were massacred on Palm Sunday during Holy Week. Where is the global outrage? I refuse to be silent!
