It takes days to work, not minutes or hours. Plus, you need to,avoid red meat and coffee for those couple days as well.

Hexagonal Graph paper for organic chemistry 2 comments
guest · 5 years ago
I have paper like that from back when war games were played on paper instead of computers. A hex pattern is more realistic for move,net than squares...with squares, to go four squares forward and three squares left takes seven moves, but with hex it's more like following a line so the number of moves is more realistic.

I'm glad he won, but isn't that all part of "business?" One side tries to maximize what they'll get and so does the other? Sears took on a risk that the invention wouldn't take off, and the risk paid off because the ratchet did prove popular. But there are tons of things that get tooled up at no minor cost and distributed but the thing just doesn't catch on. Also, if the value of the invention was so clear, didn't someone else offer him more?

Since he won, maybe Sears misrepresented their side of the negotiations, but it seems naive to think that anybody buying something off you is going to have your interests at heart.

SJWs: It's terrible that people hunt for sport, even though the fees pay for most of the wildlife conservation costs.

Also SJWs: This Native American tribe NEEDS to hunt and kill this particular kind of endangered whale because their ancestors did, even though their ancestors didn't have outboard motor powered boats or guns that shoot the harpoons.

1. When they find ever more ancient scrolls from what became the Jewish or Christian bibles, or writings that let them translate items they already have but can't understand (like the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls), they find an amazing level of consistency.

2. This guy finds a way to denigrate the beliefs of people whose book tends to encourage them to be better people even by worldly standards (although certainly some are doing a really bad job of it). He doesn't have anything to say about the religions whose book says to harm or kill non-believers. Huh, wonder why.

3. As I've been around the world doing volunteer work, it's only Christians who ever have hospitals or well digging programs or clinics or whatever that they put on for the benefit of "the masses." Other groups only help thief own people, or believe that if something's wrong in your life, it was brought on you by your own actions or those of your parents/ancestors, so it would violate karma to help you.

Also, when someone asks me to fix something electrical (I'm a mechanical engineer at an electronics company), they always say, "I think it's a short." No, if it were "a short," the circuit breaker or fuse would have tripped. It's actually probably an "open," which is the opposite of a short. Tell me what the symptoms are, what happened right before, during and after the problem occurred, and what changes you made between when the thing worked and when it didn't. From fixing things on people's cars, the description is often really bad, like "the instruments suddenly went out while I was driving," when in actuality they turned the brightness all the way down accidentally, so it didn't happen while they were looking at the instruments as their story went.

You have to get the correct fit. If you just buy the brand based on commercials or what your friends like, you may not get the correct combination of waist, hips, butt, leg room, and crotch height. For me, Levi's never fit at all and Wranglers were worse. Lee or Sedgefield in a 32-34 fit my football,player butt and legs without being huge in the waist. Levis seem like they're designed for someone with what is medically termed "Noassatall.."

He also did a great job of playing anther top-notch character in Homicide: Life On The Street. But whatever network that was on kept changing the day it showed, then semi-canceled it for a while, then brought it back, then canceled it for good because there weren't enough people watching it. So, we lost an excellent show with good stories and good characters.

Plus, every law puts a burden of proof on every person and entity that they're complying. So, some company can have a hard time justifying some people getting paid more than others when some people simply outperform others because they then have to show that the lower performers were given equal opportunities.

You'd think that the top performing salesman (or saleswoman) could legally earn more because of better results, but some will complain that he serves the more profitable customers, or the company will have to prove that there's no activity that only benefits that top person (like membership in a certain club where business is conducted). There ends up being a burden of proof that you're complying, not on the person who accuses discrimination. I put "you'd think" at the beginning of this paragraph because bad logic or data seems to be accepted. The "women earn X% of men's pay" is based on all jobs across all levels of experience, which doesn't make any sense.

Some people borrow A LOT of money to get a college degree and maybe a graduate degree from their dream college without any thought to being able to pay off the loans. Some people HAVE to,live in San Francisco or New York, and love the lifestyle but never cease to complain about the cost.

But, OK, tax me more to pay teachers more. I get four weeks of vacation, and teachers get the whole summer plus a couple weeks at Christmas. How will you tax them their time off to transfer some of that to me?

That saying came from one of Bill Clinton's "apologies" for one of the various times getting caught in illegal activities...I think the time he fired the White House travel staff and installed his Arkansas friends in doing those functions. He didn't even admit to making mistakes, as in "I made mistakes" or "we made mistakes;" It was all passive, like it was uncontrollable as the weather or something.

It's a good thing he gave himself an out, that is, allowing himself till age 105 rather than only waiting until racism was handed. The United States still has so much racism in it, like scholarships available only for people of a certain race, or other people losing their jobs and or reputations for something like quoting song lyrics accurately, or having appeared in the costume with painted face that wasn't important decades ago but now suddenly it's decided that it's an insult.

The meme isn't saying the parents should be put in jail for pet abuse or that the child should be monitored for sociopathic tendencies. It says that you shouldn't let your kid roughhouse too much with a dog. Stop adding more baggage to that, and take the good advice for what it is.

Gigantic 12-year-old basketball player dominates his competition 2 comments

1. In Indiana, 12 year olds play on regulation height baskets. Even 10 year olds do. That basket looks to be 8' and not the regulation 10'.

2. I hope he learns the fundamentals. There's a powerful inclination to just stand there and let your 20" greater reach let the balls come to you. I see many middle school phenoms that can't do anything in high school because suddenly their physical gifts aren't enough by themselves, or even are negated when others catch up to early height or strength advantages.

The smart students would transfer to another epsection of that course, where the grades are awarded on merit rather than via group.

A better example would be where everyone worked at a coop for however many hours they wanted, but all money was divided equally regardless of hours worked or types of jobs done ( stock shelves, plan in network, clean bathrooms). All the students would need to shop there as well.
