We’ve been doing research on new methods/tools for placing items at a distance. One is more accurate, but doesn’t give as much distance. It’s called stick. The other can give greater distance, but accuracy can be a problem. It’s called throwing.

I did notice Altria / Phillip Morris were also in that list. :-(

Perhaps so, alas. And the rates of obesity and diabetes continue to rise. sigh.

Imagine how much plastic waste could be eliminated if we just boycotted these companies.

The Real MVP! Thank You!

My point being that one doesn’t need a fixer, unless one does illegal things. Can we not have criminals in places of power? Soonish?

Have you ever seen wooden/ bamboo bikes? Renovo was one manufacturer. And currently, (https://www.lightwoodenbicycles.com/) TimberWolf Cycles.

There are others: https://www.treehugger.com/awesome-bikes-made-of-wood-4869156

I saw one in a museum, from the 1880s, made of hickory. It reportedly weighed 18 pounds.

I was curious about a specific term:

"In a pivotal stretch of testimony, David Pecker, the longtime publisher of The National Enquirer, described a 2015 meeting with Mr. Trump and his fixer at the time, Michael D. Cohen, at Mr. Trump’s midtown Manhattan headquarters.

Fixer
Noun
2. A person who uses influence or makes arrangements for another, especially by improper or unlawful means.

WAIT A MINUTE!!! You mean Douglas Adams was actually an LLM?

Life is full of opportunities to learn. “Gotta learn something new everyday.” Here’s a bit more: There are about 6000 solitary bees that live on the NA continent. Most of them make small tunnels in the ground, and some carve holes in wood, e.g. trees, posts, etc. The ground dwelling ones on average go about 6 inches deep. So that woven plastic “landscape cloth” interferes with them. If they are beneath it when installed, they can’t get out. If they are above it they can’t make proper homes for their babies. Happy Spring!!

About 20% of cholesterol comes from direct consumption. And about 80% comes from sugars and fats. According to this article (https://www.massgeneralbrigham.org/en/about/newsroom/articles/how-is-cholesterol-produced). Cholesterol is the parent compound to all the steroidal hormones, including pregnenalone, DHEA, testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, and vitamin D. So one needs cholesterol, just not too much of it. Oxidized cholesterol turns out to be associated with pathophysiology, in atherosclerosis (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7836017/), and Alzheimers disease (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4473000/) One needs sugars and fats, but the amount is dependent on how one uses those compounds. And the body uses them in all sort of ways, including energy production for exercise.

So cars these days have anti-collision systems. One would think a million dollar boat, with millions of dollars in cargo, approaching a multimillion dollar bridge would have some sort of active sensing system to prevent a collision. That video shows the Dali strolling right into the support. It wasn’t a glancing blow, rather it was a direct hit. Either somebody f’d up big time, or major act of sabotage on US territory.

I read in another thread that lenders have an upper limit, around $100M. So #45 could easily use the $500M he claims to have to secure several loans, under that $100M limit to reach the $464M he owes. It’s Monday, let’s see how the spectacle continues.

Wait, so standard orange color basketballs are made of Oompa Loompa skin? Gaahhhhhhh!!!
