taps

"Taps" is a bugle call during flag ceremonies and at military funerals by the United States Armed Forces. The official military version is played by a single bugle or trumpet, although other versions of the tune may be played in other contexts (e.g., the U.S. Marine Corps Ceremonial Music site has recordings of two bugle versions and one band version). It is also performed often at Girl Guide, Girl Scout, and Boy Scout meetings and camps. The tune is also sometimes known as "Butterfield's Lullaby", or by the first line of the lyric, "Day Is Done". The duration may vary to some extent.

    Hi I'm buying a new kitchen mixer tap, and I've found two with the exact same specs, brand and price, other than one having a 'ceramic cartridge' and the other having a 'check valve'. What's the difference between the two, and which would be preferable? Thanks for any replies

There is still some running water, but not enough for the boiler to kick in and heat it (it's probably lost around 2/3rds pressure). At first, it went away for a few hours, came back again for a few hours, went away...
