The drink he is referring to is Gatorade
It was originally Gator-aid because the science department mixed it up for the football team with the Gator mascot (as in Alligator)
The other college in Florida has the mascot of the Seminoles (a native American tribe.)
However the joke is that Seminole sounds like seminal. Seminal fluid is the correct name for any fluid carrying semen. (Ie ejaculate / cum)

This isn't the solution.
Something like ICFs will be. (Though not current ICFs themselves.)
The REAL advance will be in cheaper easier more customized concrete form technology, or replacement of the concrete with some other pourable material.

Yes. That's what the guy above me is talking about. Because the fitness of the line is low, you likely should not put much stake in a low correlation.

These is a r of 0.8 for black and Hispanic population as a percentage to homicide rate.
Would you accept that as causal?

(Yes the battle from this movie is 17th century, but they were used in similar ways earlier too.)
The big problem is black powder. That shit lights up like no one's business, and so in a musket line... They would be dangerous.
So they were really more of a sometimes weapon, especially when cannons breached a wall grenades would be used to help gain a foot hold in the breach. But the point remains people didn't walk around with them. They were provided when needed for a particular task (until they became reliable, and fit with the infantry doctrines being used ... ... Which took a while

Its a mistranslation from a French name that someone likely though sounded better. Based on Estelle. The rare spelling and associated pronunciation are both prettier.
But as you alluded to saying it literally let's anyone look her up. The fun of a unique first name.

I like my Daughter's name.
She is only the 7th person recoreded in the US to have that first name with the last in 1890s.
When mybwofe introduces her everyone says "that's such a pretty name, where did you get it.?"
My daughter is the only girl I know of in the USA alive with that name, all because of a translation perversion 200 years ago. ;)

Reply to [WP] Overnight, everyone in the world has swapped bodies and you wake up as a different person in a different country by Possible-Law9651
When I woke up... I was in a different body.
No more debt, and so much younger! ... ... ... But i still had the passwords to all my financial acccounts.
Walking outside seemed to shownthst I was not alone, everyone had swapped bodies, everyone was freaking out.
No, wait, the financial details wouldn't matter, nothing would.
I only had a few hours! I had to hurry!
I rushed to the nearest police station and walked inside. Half the officers had the minds of kids, most didnt speak the same language I quickly and confidently walked back to find the armory. I was in luck, everything was locked but the keys were hanging on the wall. It seems that security was lax back here only serving as an administrative aid to track who checked what out. I grabbed two large range bags and sharted shoving ammunition inside, buckshot and 9mm pistol rounds. There didn't seem to be any rifles.
In the second I put in as many of the shotguns and handguns I could.
The bags were heavy digging into my shoulder and hand as I walked to the parking lot. The doors to the car were locked. Knowing most police cars are keyed alike I left the bags by the car and went back into the station. And took the keys off a fat older man who was crying like a baby... Poor thing probably was a baby. And would likely die of dehydration, unable to help themselves... As I walked to the door I looked back. Then took his cell phone too. It would only be useful for a few more minutes, maybe a few hours.
I loaded the car making a few trips. Then using the cell phone drove off to a grocery store. Pulling around back behind the store I loaded one if the shotguns and emptied out one of my duffle bags.
Walking armed into the store I focused on grabbing canned food, beans in particular, a can opener and some plastic spoons. Then filled up a shopping cart with water. And some lighter shelf stable goods on top.
Some stupid idiot tried to stop me, asked why I was looting at a time like this.
I was honest.
In less than an hour the power grid will fail. TOTAL collapse as the people who manage it 24/7 are not where they are supposed to be. Water will fail after that, likely fires are springing up all over as people who were cooking, or in factories mentally swapped bodies. The whole world is about to fall to shit.. If I were you, I would gather as much as you can, and find the car for whoever's body that is and leave town. Everyone is going to be dehydrated and if they live long enough starving. This is about to become a battle royal where people will kill each other to take their food and water... Then they will hunt each other as food."
His eyes went wide as I spoke, and he ran for a cart.
I loaded up my car heading for a sporting goods store. I needed shelter, clothing and tools which could all be found there.
Most people were still walking around in a daze, and cell service was failing from overload as people tried to call loved ones... A stupid gesture, as no one had their own phones.
After the sporting goods store, my car filled up with supplies and guns literally to the roof I stopped at a gas station and filled my tank.... Moments before the power failed.
After grabbing a handful of paper maps from the gas station, i drove out of town. Just as the looting picked up to full steam... People just now realizing the world as we knew it was over. ...

Reply to TIFU by forgetting to wear underwear by rubyroses123
If you are not going to carry supplies in your purse, carry a handkerchief.
The old way of dealing with this was a rolled up cloth between the legs. With a handkerchief you fold it around toilet paper and then play that between your legs held in place by your pants or shorts.
If you were wearing a skirt... My condolences,
(Not a girl but my knowledge of history helped out a girlfriend when were were out camping. And she had miss counted days.
Best part is you can wash and wring out a handkerchief easily and pat it nearly dry with paper towels or more toilet paper to use with new toilet paper shoved between it. Not as good on professionally made products but no one questions a bandana or handkerchief in a purse or pocket. Just make it apart of your EDC)

Reply to [WP] The ritual calls for 100 sacrifices, but after reading it carefully you realize that it never specified they had to be human. Deciding to be the smartass that you are, you got a petri dish full of bacteria and sacrificed them instead. by Prompt_Dude
The ritual called for 100 sacrifices, and some idiot decided he could use microbes for it.
I know magic is new here, but 9/10 times a sacrifices means a demon, and a demon means trouble. Any half trained thaumaturge knows this and could have guessed it would go badly.
Just how badly? I don't think anyone would have guessed.
Rather than grant the caster with the powers of a litch, the damn demon seems to have reasoned that one turn of foul play deserved another.
No human sacrafice, no human litch.
So that is why we are out here in force, trying to track down Tehran the Tardigrade litch. 2 cities have fallen, and atomics are being discussed. But the damn Tardigrade just goes into crypto-biosis and seems unkillable.
Sarah in R&D thinks thats why the demon used a tardigrade... For the pun of CRYPTo-biosis. We may lose the whole state over a smart ass and a pun.

If you have an academic login I can post the studies.
Its actually interesting because they were VERY hesitant to release the data (sample was only about 100 people) but oddly not as many people want to take the political risk to co firm or refuete the conclusions. (Especially since it showed heterosexual females lacked the same sex response found in all men AND homosexual females. They blamed it on the possible insensitivity of the female junk measuring devices. Or speculated that heterosexual females have a distinctly different and unkniwn genital reaction to sexual excitement)

Well medically bisexual people don't exist, just people with a low disgust response and high sex drive.
Funny enough that was derived from a study where they strapped a ton of devices to different people's genitals and showed them porn.
Long story short the people that self identified as bi were intact statistically gay or straight but without the disgust reaction to the other gender,AND a higher sex drive.
Ie your just horny and not picky.
