RE: Question about pitch of underground drainage pipe. Usually perforated pipes are bedded in gravel. When water accumulates in the gravel it'll bubble up in the perforated pipe and at some point it'll discharge out the end. Perforated pipes do not need to be placed on a design slope like a gravity pipe.
Funeral procession arriving at the church. The coffin is covered with an elaborate red pall. A pall (also called mortcloth) is a cloth that covers a casket or coffin at funerals. The word comes from the Latin pallium (cloak), through Old English. It is also a stiffened square card covered with white linen, usually embroidered with a cross or some other appropriate symbol.
The Pall Corporation, in Ann Arbor, MI, had a Smile Team that met to schedule random, fun, employee recognition events. They have decorated shop windows, with a prize for the best, during the holidays. They sponsor ice cream socials, picnics, the boss cooks day, and so on, to create a rewarding environment at work.
