“In every sample we have seen of ancient Roman concrete, you can find these white inclusions,” bits of rock embedded in the walls. For many years, Masic says, the origin of those inclusions was unclear — researchers suspected incomplete mixing of the cement, perhaps. But these are the highly organized Romans we’re talking about. How likely is it that “every operator [was] not mixing properly and every single [building] has a flaw?”
I suppose I should have explained why this is so interesting.Weird. I just assumed they had a tiny electric motor in their throats.
So Osiris, God of cats, that's your secret to longevity :lol:edit: We've kept cats around as mousers and pets for at least 10k years but since I believe most felines purr, the adaptation probably wasn't for our benefit. When me and the ex got second cat for the calico/maine c00n mix and brought it home, she pretty much roared like a lion. So making that deep, very low frequency sound is probably a useful evolutionary adaptation making them sound very much bigger than they are.
And if that's not enough, you get incinerated. And should you, by some miracle, still be alive - all the oxygen is gone from the air - so you suffocate. Luckily - Hitler didn't have these - he would have jumped for joy.From what I've read and heard, hyperbaric bombs create so much pressure that they basically liquify your insides.
Lol paleo or go home. Humans didn't evolve with a sugar diet.@DAPUNISHER already knew this
Eh, paleo is good in that it discourages processed foods, but it also encourages eating a lot of red meat.Lol paleo or go home. Humans didn't evolve with a sugar diet.
Wal mart lard asses did. 31M Americans are diagnosed diabetic. 20% are undiagnosed.
Die, fat people, die.
-Oh god I thought I had escaped the Israel Hamas thread...
Red meat isn't bad. Corporate red meat, farmed salmon, company pork is....Eh, paleo is good in that it discourages processed foods, but it also encourages eating a lot of red meat.
But I agree that sugar is a major health concern. I guess we can thank the low-fat craze of the past for that.
That's where the goblins setup their forge.That's a cool way to display density. Seems almost binary though. I find it hard to believe *no one* lives in the flat areas. I'd like to see a contour plot of population. Assign 0' to empty, then... I'd have to think about it a bit. Maybe have a maximum of 5000' for any population you'd expect to find anywhere, and prorate the population-elevation through the scale.
The crew gained the reputation of “complainers,” and their exchanges with Houston lost their civility. Finally, a couple of days after Christmas, Carr wired a manifesto earthward: “We need more time to rest. We need a schedule that is not so packed. We don’t want to exercise after a meal. We need to get things under control.”
Houston’s response was chilly: The crew had to meet its schedule. On Dec. 28, the crew staged its strike. (In some accounts, it’s called a “mutiny,” which is surely too harsh.) Carr turned off the radio link with the ground and crew members spent a full day relaxing, taking things at their own pace and pursuing projects of their own.
The ground crew, stuck at the far end of a dead radio hookup, had no choice but to fume impotently. When Skylab came back online, NASA was much more amenable to discussion. Houston agreed to afford the crew full rest and meal breaks, and replace its minute-by-minute schedules with a list of tasks to be completed, leaving it to the crew to manage its own time.
Aside from maybe the Vikings or Huns (or the Spanish Inquisition), US military engineers are the last group you ever want to screw with.And if that's not enough, you get incinerated.
