Certainly. Most of the 20th century, the top tier tax rate was set at a level that can only be described as “punitive”. It was higher than 90% to kill off the robber barons.
While I am not morally opposed to beheading rich people, we really need to go back to the tax rates we had in the 50’s. And add a securities tax, payable in shares of that security, that the IRS can liquidate slowly over time.
Since you’re outsourcing this, the adjudicator is either the first contract killer involved, or the second contract killer you specifically hired to deal with that first contract killer.
Frugal families sold their tapes, sold their VCRs, and sought their fortunes on the high seas.
Can’t wait to Baader-Meinhoff this one…
My advice: Don’t setup dual boot.
Instead, setup Virtualbox in your Linux instance, and install Windows in a VM. You’ll have access to a windows “crutch”, without having to leave Linux to use it.
The laundromat has angry people who don’t want to be there,
I live in a college town. The laundromat nearest me has a bar.
For what I’m paying in mortgage and one car loan, I couldn’t afford rent on an apartment in the nearest city. Whatever single family home I could afford to buy in the city, I wouldn’t want to live in.
Today, it takes a family with both parents, or partners, working just to have enough money to pay a mortgage and two auto loans (none if they live in a city and are smart).
If they live in the city, they aren’t paying a mortgage and two auto loans. The money they’d spend on all three in the outer suburbs is instead going to a landlord.
Just tell them you’re contagious, and don’t want to pass it on to them.
As shepherds we shall be…
I don’t know why everybody focuses so much on the top of the wing. Relative to ambient air, the pressure above the wing is slightly reduced, but the pressure below the wing is massively increased. That massive increase is far more important than the slight reduction above.
We know this, because simple, flat airfoils are capable of flight. Think: paper airplanes, simple balsa models, etc.
The shape of the airfoil is not actually very important for lift. You can make a brick produce plenty enough lift to maintain its altitude, if you can provide sufficient thrust and control it’s attitude.
The specific shape of the airfoil is primarily important for minimizing drag across a variety of speeds and angles of attack at various loadings. This is where the top surface of the wing becomes important. By maintaining the flow over the wing, drag is reduced, and controllability is maintained.
Hear, hear!
While Intend to agree that the time needs to accommodate school schedules, it is ludicrous to base school schedules on the latest sunrise of the year, especially since that sunrise is only that late for a few weeks of the year, and for >2 of those weeks, the kids are on winter break anyway.
Schools can adjust their schedules on much smaller increments.
if new York stayed on -5 in winter
New York is on UTC-5 in winter.
8am is the latest sunrise in a Detroit winter on EST, UTC-5. If you want it earlier, Detroit can’t be on EST, let alone EDT. They would need to be on CST, UTC-6, which the never are. Solar noon would be around 11:15 AM. Sunset would be before 4PM.
Are you just being contrary for the sake of being contrary?
This extensive, it’s almost certainly just paint flaking off. Carbon fiber wings need UV protection which is normally provided by the paint. The tape is just shading the carbon fiber wing panels from the sun.
There is an issue with the paint. It is not adhering properly.
The paint normally provides UV protection to the carbon fiber reinforced polymer wings. With the paint flaking off, the tape is here to provide UV protection to the CFRP.
Let’s stop using the terms “DST” and “standard time”. They really confuse the issue. The contiguous US uses UTC-4 (EDT) , UTC-5 (EST/CDT) UTC-6 (CST/MDT), UTC-7 (MST/PDT) and UTC-8 (PST) time zones. We aren’t all going to be using the same UTC offset for permanent time. We are all going to be adopting the UTC offset that makes sense for our region.
New England and Michigan are currently in the same time zone, which switches between UTC-4 and UTC-5. Year-round UTC-5 puts dawn before 4am in New York City during the summer. New England should absolutely not be on UTC-5 in the summer. They should be on UTC-4. On permanent UTC-4, New York dawns will always be between 5 and 8 AM.
Year-round UTC-4 puts dawn at 9am in Detroit during the winter. Detroit should absolutely not be in UTC-4 in the winter. On permanent UTC-5, Detroit dawns will always be between 5 and 8 AM.
New York should be on permanent UTC-4. Detroit should be on permanent UTC-5.
Its easier to illuminate a bedroom in the morning than the great outdoors in a ridiculously early evening.
It is amazing how many problems would be resolved with liberal use of (figurative) guillotines.
They’re halfway there already.
