What will eventually the world in 30 years from now?
Nothing unusual if you are a existence form currently living deep within world warm water filled
rock fissures. Waiting around to emerge once again free from various
other organic competition. To jump- start evolution anew.
The trick is leaving the distant long term something to transmission your intelligence.
Take that junk you have got… show more It will get worse.

Oh, nuts. You started off sounding so normal.

I am commenting to let you know what a terrific experience my daughter enjoyed reading through your web page. She noticed a wide variety of pieces, with the inclusion of what it is like to have an awesome helping style to have the rest without hassle grasp some grueling matters.

That is, of course, our mission statement. Including the part about the daughter.

Definitely believe that which you stated. Your favorite reason appeared to be on the web the simplest thing to be aware of. I say to you, I certainly get annoyed while people think about worries that they plainly do not know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top and defined out the whole thing without having side-effects , people could take a signal. Will probably be back to get more. Thanks

I say to you, your translation app is firing on all carburetors. Be back to get more!

I Beg To Differ: There Was Nothing Simple About It

Man Allegedly Throws ‘Large Pickle’ Out Window in Vermont, Hurting Worker
NECN | June 2, 2020

A Massachusetts man is likely feeling more sour than sweet after being charged with assault for throwing a pickle out of his car window, hitting a state employee who was working on the road.

Vermont State police said Christoph Herrmannsdoerfer of Williamstown, Massachusetts was driving on Route 7 in Pownal on Monday when he threw a large pickle out of his window.

That pickle happened to hit an Agency of Transportation employee, Carl Hoffman, who was working a detail near the border with Massachusetts, “causing him pain,” according to authorities.

Troopers were given a description of the vehicle and the suspect by the Agency of Transportation supervisor on the scene at the time of the incident.

Authorities eventually located Herrmannsdoerfer, who was issued a citation to appear before the Bennington County Superior Court on July 20 to answer to the charges of simple assault.

This one is for Basil

But not Basil.

Looks like somebody else thinks Weird Al is a genius. He actually does several of the Al’s videos but I will start you off with this one.

Enjoy.

Straight Line of the Day: Scientists Can Now Measure Changes in the Mass of Atoms. If They Can Do That…

This one is admittedly a challenge. Good luck, Mr. Phelps..

Straight Line of the Day: Scientists can now measure changes in the mass of atoms. If they can do that…

When an atom absorbs or releases energy via the quantum leap of an electron, it becomes heavier or lighter. This can be explained by Einstein’s theory of relativity (E = mc2). However, the effect is minuscule for a single atom. Nevertheless, the team of Klaus Blaum and Sergey Eliseev at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics has successfully measured this infinitesimal change in the mass of individual atoms for the first time.

Astonishing, but true: If you wind a mechanical watch, it becomes heavier.

The same thing happens when you charge your smartphone.

However, this effect is so small that it completely eludes our everyday experience. A conventional balance would not be able to detect it.
But at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics in Heidelberg, there is a balance that can: Pentatrap. It can measure the minuscule change in mass of a single atom when an electron absorbs or releases energy via a quantum jump, thus opening a new world for precision physics.

Sorry, But the Meeting Is Over… Has Been for Quite Some Time, Actually

What’s up?

Gotta say that my life is getting a bit tiresome. While my institution may be opening in a limited fashion in the next couple of weeks my job will probably remain as “Work from home” until we conquer this virus. When might that be? No one knows. So here I sit in my chair watching far too much TV (Currently “The Last Kingdom” and various military histories) and I’m thinking I’m going to get in a lot more golf during the week (We will see). Until baseball gets back, and I am increasingly doubting that it will, I’m bored and that boredom may be in place for a few more months. Sigh.

So, what’s up with you? How you all getting along? How bright or dark is your immediate future?
