And how do you propose we pay them? We can’t. Might as well spend the most on what we can buy now.

How can I make skin toner at home?
|
Witch hazel is a really effective natural toner. It has astringent properties, it reduces inflammation and irritation and make the pores look smaller. It also helps balance sebum production and reduces redness.
Green tree is also a great choice. As I said in my answer to another question ([LINKED_TEXT: Cristina Tarziu's answer to Can one apply green tea as a skin toner for the face?] [URL: https://www.quora.com/Can-one-apply-green-tea-as-a-skin-toner-for-the-face/answer/Cristina-Tarziu]),
Green tea is rich in antioxidants and nutrients and is considered to have benefits for a variety of skin issues. Studies have shown that the major polyphenolic compound present in green tea, EGCG (epigallocatechin-3-gallate), has many therapeutic properties, including: antioxidant activity and anti-inflammatory properties.
Also:
● Green tea balances sebum production, unclogs the pores, and prevents and treats acne.
● Green tea extract has been shown to be effective for: acne, atopic dermatitis, candidiasis, keloids, rosacea.
● Green tea has anti-ageing effects, improving skin elasticity and having amazing moisturizing and nourishing effects.
To my homemade toners I also like to add 1-2 drops of a 100% pure essential oil such as rose essential oil, geranium, lavender, ylang ylang and chamomile. You can also add some aloe vera gel, which will furthermore help reduce inflammation.

Who is headless CMS for?
|
" A more flexible variant of CMS is the headless CMS. HTML, CSS, and content are all housed in one location in typical CMSs, making content reuse difficult. The presentation layer is separated from the body in headless CMS. The presentation layer is seen here as the head. APIs are used to distribute content to a variety of devices consistently. To export content to the presentation layer, certain CMS platforms provide headless APIs. The headless CMS could be a solution to traditional CMS's inadequacies."
The Advantages of a Headless CMS or an API-First CMS
Managing and publishing content becomes easy.API allows content to be served to numerous devices.You can concentrate on content as an author and publisher.For publishing, you have a variety of front-end frameworks to pick from.

Why has Labour lost its fourth general election in a row?
|
Inability to read, and react to, the mood of the people.
Labour isn’t meant to be a debating society, it’s a grass roots political party, which fights for the rights and needs of working people.
Not naval gazing about how to address each other, or getting “all hurt” because a naughty boy said a bad word!
We lost this time because the party has allowed lunatics from the extreme of the party to look like normal people. They should have been stamped on hard, it will take at least two years to clean the dirt out of all the corners, then we can be ready to have a real attempt at winning, taking back the seats we lost and eating the Tory heartlands up.

A 500 ft. train travelling 500 ft per minute must travel through a 500 ft long tunnel. How long will it take the train to travel through the tunnel?
|
If a train crosses a tunnel it must traval the length equal to the length of sum of both train and Tunnel.
Now time = total distance/ speed
So total distance will be = 500+500=1000 ft
Time = 1000/500 = 2 min

If you agree with Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan that its time to cut Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security because the deficit has skyrocketed, what percentage of cut to each program would you support?
|
The GOP initiated this tax cut for the wealthy, knowing it would greatly increase the deficit. The deficit increased 17%- equal to the amt of the tax cut.
They did this because they wanted the public to think that because of the deficit’s rise social sec, medicare % medicaid should be cut; they didn’t want us to realize that the rise was because of the tax cut. They’ve been trying to cut SS & Medicare for what- 40 years?

What is cosmetic dentistry and how is it different from general dentistry?
|
There is an overlap between general and cosmetic dentistry because many of the cosmetic treatments set out below might also be essential to overall dental health. For example, some patients require a dental crown for a tooth that has broken down, yet another might want to replace an existing metal or discoloured crown with a porcelain crown to match in with existing teeth following whitening.
Cosmetic dentistry is where the dentist is performing treatment to enhance a patient’s smile.
Dental Hygiene
Sometimes a trip to the dental hygienist can vastly improve a smile. Our hygienists also offer Airflow which is a treatment to remove heavy staining from teeth, almost like a gentle sandblasting.
Tooth whitening
Whitening treatments have a huge impact on the way you look and can be done in house or at home, or a combination of both.
Veneers
These are wafer thin slivers of porcelain that are bonded to the front surface of teeth to improve the look of worn, broken, discoloured or gappy teeth. They are made at specialist laboratories to look indistinguishable from natural teeth. They aren’t always the best solution but in cases where they are, they achieve an excellent aesthetic result.
Crowns
Dental crowns can be made to replace broken down teeth. The materials are now so highly advanced that a completely natural look can be achieved in many cases, especially when used in conjunction with gum contouring.
Composite Bonding
This technique can be used to repair and/or enhance natural teeth. The materials are excellent so the result looks completely natural. This treatment has the advantage of being minimally invasive and is often a good alternative to veneers.
Bridges
These can be used to replace missing teeth either with or without dental implants.
Dental Implants
These are used to replace missing teeth and essentially become a new tooth. They can look completely natural, can function like normal teeth and if looked after, can last as long as natural teeth. They also have the benefit of preserving facial bone which would otherwise be lost without a ‘root’ of a tooth, and this in turn helps to keep the years off your face!
Orthodontics
We offer invisible orthodontics and 6 Month Smiles. Sometimes orthodontics is used to move teeth into a position to maximise the aesthetic result of veneers, crowns or bridges.
Gum Contouring
This is done to improve the health of your gums and the appearance of your smile. It can achieve a more uniform gum line. At Wayside, we use dental lasers for all gum contouring treatments, which achieves a better result than with a scalpel.

Can humans implant chlorophyll in their DNA and obtain energy through photosynthesis without eating to survive?
|
NO.For so many reasons, its simply not possible.
Now, lets have a giggle, and let us pretend that we could do it.
We are faced with one massive problem and that the amount of energy thet chlorophyll would produce would not even run our little toe.Huamns with chlorophyll would have to live on the equator, and stop moving and stand still for 23 hours 59 minutes a day because the energy produced would allow us to move for about that one minute.
I will freely admit that I plucked that time right from my ass, but at the same time, should anyone bother to do any calculations, they would quite possibly find, that Im not that far off!

When will humans be technologically advanced enough to fight off an alien invasion?
|
Assuming they also follow the laws of physics the way we know and understand them (no force fields or other exotic gimmicks), then we could do a pretty credible job today.
Lets assume they have established themselves in orbit after defeating the Space Force. Our counterstroke will involve a bit of heavy engineering, but was actually previewed many years ago with underground nuclear testing. During the “[LINKED_TEXT: Pascal-A] [URL: https://www.businessinsider.com/fastest-object-robert-brownlee-2016-2#but-the-tests-were-interested-in-were-nicknamed-pascal-during-operation-plumbbob-6]” underground test in 1957, a nuclear device at the bottom a a 500 foot deep shaft blew off the 4″ thick iron cap from the top of the shaft. Calculations suggest the cap was blasted upwards at 5X Earth escape velocity. The cap was never recovered, and it is possible it disintegrated under the extreme stresses, but if it survived, then it was blasted into space.
Underground nuclear test
So what is needed is a fairly accurate plot of the orbital path of the enemy spacecraft, mining equipment to dig 500 foot shafts (or construction equipment to build 500′ tall silos). The two major changes would be to design the caps to survive the shot (although breaking into pieces like a shotgun or canister round might be useful if the enemy spacecraft can manoeuvre quickly in orbit), and fill the shaft/silo with water. The intense x-ray radiation from the nuclear device going off will covert the water into a plasma, coupling the energy of the bomb far more efficiently to the cap.
We can now create nuclear “shotguns” or “rifles” to fire at enemy spacecraft. The projectiles can be moving anywhere between 5 to 10X escape velocity, depending on how efficiently the energy coupling mechanism is, providing the ability to hammer the enemy spacecraft with multi ton projectiles delivering massive amounts of kinetic energy.
If the orbital tracks are not clear because the enemy can manoeuvre, then the “barrels” will have to be towed into the ocean. designing them to be neutrally buoyant in the water, they can be aimed to a certain extent prior to firing, providing a much better chance to strike the alien invaders.
As an aside, if we knew the aliens were arriving and had time to build planetary defences or launch a space force, their weapons would be variations of nuclear shotgun rounds ([LINKED_TEXT: Project Prometheus] [URL: http://atomic-skies.blogspot.com/2015/03/third-generation-nuclear-weapons.html]), [LINKED_TEXT: nuclear shaped charges or EFP’s] [URL: http://toughsf.blogspot.com/2017/05/nuclear-efp-and-heat.html] and even [LINKED_TEXT: CASABA Howitzers] [URL: http://toughsf.blogspot.com/2016/06/the-nuclear-spear-casaba-howitzer.html], capable of projecting a star hot spindle of plasma hundreds to thousands of kilometres to the target. Our space battlewagons would be missile busses with a range of nuclear power weaponry mounted on small boosters to pull free from the bus and orient themselves to the target. The oncoming spacecraft would have to deal with everything from pellets moving at 100km/sec to streams of liquid metal and plasma moving at speeds measured in fraction of the speed of light. It would take a very massive and well armoured spaceship to absorb that kind of punishment.

How do you calculate
|
One quick way to calculate the sum of 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10 is to use the formula for the sum of an arithmetic series.
The formula is:
S = (n/2) x (a + l)
where S is the sum of the series, n is the number of terms in the series, a is the first term of the series, and l is the last term of the series.
Using this formula for the series 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10, we have:
n = 10 (since there are 10 terms) a = 1 (since the first term is 1) l = 10 (since the last term is 10)
Plugging these values into the formula, we get:
S = (10/2) x (1 + 10) = 55
Therefore, the sum of 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10 is 55.

There are thousands of places to buy stuff from online. Who should you buy from? Are all places equivalent? This post outlines why all online shops are not the same, and why we think Amazon is the first place you should look to do all of your online purchases.
Here on Trending Gear, we only list products that can be found on Amazon. There are several reasons for this.
Best Prices
Quite often, I find that Amazon has the best prices available anywhere. I almost never have to buy an item at regular price. I regularly find exactly what I want on sale. With so many items listed and such a large base of sellers competing with each other, the buyer (you!) gets the best possible price.

Why do people vape?
|
I started smoking cigarettes around the time I turned 18 years of age. Over the next roughly 16 years give or take, I would quit smoking for about 6 months, and then start again. This pattern typically followed the winter/summer seasons because during the summer, I would ride my mountain bike on dirt trails 50 miles, 4–5 times per week.
Finally in 2012, I decided to try out an e-cig to see if it would help me quit smoking. It wasn’t quite the same, and took a few days to become used to the volume of nicotine I was receiving, but from that moment, up to today, I still vape.
The one thing I immediately noticed is that my first bike ride of the season didn’t result in the feeling like I was going to die, which was typical after a whole winter of smoking cigarettes. My lungs felt cleaner, and my muscles were the first to fatigue versus my cardiovascular system. So after experiencing that, I knew that I was on the right track as far as quitting.
Little did I know that I would never quit vaping. Over the last few months, I’ve slowly been lowering the nicotine level of the ecig juice that I use, to hopefully within a month or two, get down to a zero nicotine level, and then ultimately quit completely. I’ve gone from 16mg’s down to 8mg’s in just two months.
One thing I personally could never understand are the people who vape 0% nicotine juice, and had never been smokers before….kind of like they took up a new hobby versus using it to either feed an addiction, or trying to quit cigarettes.
So in a nutshell, I started vaping to ultimately quit, didn’t quit, but now am finally moving towards that eventuality six years later.

What does a CEO of a start-up do? What does a typical day look like? What are their responsibilities? What do they do to grow their company every day?
|
This really depends on the company. I've worked for several startups, and the CEOs always seem to do different things depending on their strengths, and hire other people to fill in their weaknesses.
But, some things all CEOs have to do are:- Hire effectively- Secure funds (either through sales or investment)- Ensure their product is developed
Practically, a day in the life of a CEO probably involves talking to the people who are doing the work of the company, and making sure everything is still going smoothly. CEOs who are out of touch with their product will probably find that it will not succeed.
Then, they will have to make sure funding is going ok. This will mean they are either talking frequently to customers, or talking frequently to investors or - usually - both. If a big customer or a big investor is ever unhappy, a CEO will need to deal with this swiftly and quickly.
They will also usually need to be meeting new potential employees. This is a crucial step in growing the company, and often is where I see early stage CEOs devote a lot of their time (especially if they're trying to hire engineers, which is hard in today's market.)

Do people in Portugal and the United States know that the actor Carlton from the show “Fresh Prince” is ethnic Portuguese?

Parents don’t determine your ethnicity or heritage, and his Portuguese great-great-great-great grandfather is genetically the same as having two Portuguese parents from Portugal and more of a closer relative than a African-Trinidadian parent.
These are facts.

Is staying in a 5 star hotel actually worth all the money you pay for?
|
Well, I can’t say that staying in a 5 star hotel is actually worth for all the money you pay, and let us see the facilities offered by 5 star.
* 5 Star hotels are chosen by top business and other MNC heads, whose expenses are met by his company or reimbursed. * A common man can’t afford to stay in these 5 star hotels. * These are hotels that offer only the highest level of accommodations and services. * The properties offer a high degree of personal service. Although most five star hotels are large properties, sometimes the small independent (non-chain) property offers an elegant intimacy that can not be achieved in the larger setting. * The hotel locations can vary from the very exclusive locations of a suburban area, to the heart of downtown. The hotel lobbies are sumptuous, the rooms complete with stylish furnishing and quality linens. * The amenities often include: VCR′s, CD stereos, garden tubs or Jacuzzis, in-room video library, heated pools and more. * The hotels feature up to three restaurants all with exquisite menus. Room service is usually available 24 hours a day. Fitness Centers and valet and/or ga...

Why is #ISRO trending on Twitter?
|
Insatiety.
Let's pretend that I didn't put that word out. But the fact doesn't change.
We are insatiable and that's the reason we, as a generation, are significantly discontent.
Let me construct an example.
You've a good-going career, you've great friends, you've a social life, and you don't find your pockets drilled. You're a charmer.
Even if you've most of the things that one aspires for, you're desperate to try out a relationship.
Let's say you get there, you get the man/woman you wanted. Now what? Will ya stop?
Nope!
You now want something of higher intensity, more complex, something you're definitely incapable of handling.
“And, happiness?” Oh boy, don't you ever spell it out.
We are never satiated. We never were. We never will be.

What exercise can lose face fat?
|
There are several ways to reduce face fat:
Cardiovascular exercise: Engage in regular cardiovascular exercises such as jogging, brisk walking, cycling, or swimming. These activities will help you burn calories and lose overall body fat, including facial fat.
Facial exercises: You can also do facial exercises to tone and strengthen the muscles in your face. These exercises can help reduce the appearance of facial fat and make your face look more toned. Examples of facial exercises include puckering your lips and holding the position for a few seconds, making exaggerated facial expressions, and blowing up balloons.
Diet: A balanced diet that is low in fat and calories can help reduce overall body fat, including facial fat. Eat a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. Avoid foods that are high in sugar, salt, and saturated fats.
Hydration: Drinking plenty of water can help flush out toxins and reduce facial bloating, which can make your face appear fuller.
Sleep: Getting enough restful sleep can help reduce stress levels, which can contribute to facial fat. Aim to get at least 7-8 hours of sleep per night.
Avoid alcohol and smoking: Alcohol and smoking can cause inflammation and damage to the skin, which can contribute to facial fat. Cut back on alcohol consumption and quit smoking to improve the overall health of your face and body.
Remember, reducing facial fat takes time and consistency. Combining a healthy diet, regular exercise, facial exercises, hydration, and quality sleep can help you achieve your goals.

Which is the best car brand in the world?
|
VW Beetle Marketed as a car that anyone could afford, the Volkswagen Beetle has been in production since 1936 and has a somewhat scandalous origin story (developed with the help of Ferdinand Porsche, the Beetle was the brainchild of Adolph Hitler, which is ironic, given it later came to be known as the “Love Bug”). This compact car had several notable innovations that set it ahead of its time, including rear-wheel drive and a rear-mounted engine. It was also the first car to have four-wheel independent suspension. To date, more than 21 million Beetles have been built, making it one of the most produced cars in history. greatest cars of all time. Cord L-29 The coolest car you’ve never heard of, the Cord L-29 was the first front-wheel-drive automobile sold in America. Introduced in 1929 and featuring a radically different arrangement of the engine and transaxle assembly, the L-29 had an elegant design that elevated it above its competitors. Unfortunately, the timing of the release coincided with the stock market crash of 1929, and after a few years, the L-29 was taken out of production. You can see a sister model – a 1936 Cord Phaeton – on display in the museum. Ford 150 Pickup Truck Introduced in 1948 to replace car-based pickups of the early ’40s, the F150 is now in its 13th generation thanks to its durability and reliability. Refined over the decades in styling, design, bed, engine design, suspension, and platform, it has been the best-selling vehicle in the United States since 1982 and the best-selling pickup truck since 1977.

No, not at all ...

I don't even say anything to my relatives who also have tattoos, because I respect them, they are their decisions, not mine. Having more tattoos or fewer tattoos does not make him a better or a worse person ... So don't worry, the fact that he has tattoos does not make him a bad person, he remains the same.

What is the advantage of eSIM over a normal SIM?
|
One of the main benefits of eSIMs is its security. Dissimilar to SIM cards that can be traded or cloned, eSIMs give better safety efforts by being incorporated into the gadget hardware, while sending an entire host of safety highlights and declarations.
Another benefit is that eSIMs are a lot harder to harm and lose. This is on the grounds that eSIMs are installed profound into a telephone, while SIM cards can without much of a stretch get thrown around and harmed.
You can't in fact lose an eSIM chip since it isn't something you take out, yet you can handicap it or erase an eSIM profile utilizing your gadget settings. The main way you will lose it is assuming you lose your telephone.
Presently, in the event that you figure you will be left with one portable specialist organization, reconsider. eSIM include empowers you to store various cell plans and profiles for example eSIMs. Thus, you won't need to continue trading SIM cards while going all over the planet.

How did algorithms predicting Hillary Clinton’s landslide victory in the 2016 Presidential Election get their prediction so wrong?
|
There was no prediction of a landslide victory. Polls put the margin of victory at only a few percent. Pundits were saying that there was a 90%+ probability of Clinton winning. I had no such certainty, given that the variance in the previous week was more than the margin of victory.
It turns out that she did win the popular vote, but Trump got more electoral college votes (in some cases, by incredibly narrow margins).

Should record-keeping be required on all ammunition sales in the USA?
|
Presumably, the reason to keep track of how much ammunition any given person is purchasing is to alert the government to anyone purchasing large amounts. News reports of shootings commonly include the number of rounds found in the shooters car or house. These numbers are breathlessly reported to be in the hundreds.
The problem is that ammunition is expensive. Anyone who even casually shoots buys their ammo in bulk. The smallest bulk unit being a 500 round “block”. I do not hunt. I own a couple handguns for self defense. I go to the shooting range two or three times a year, each time firing off 300-400 rounds. I keep an eye out for sales and typically have at least 1000 rounds in my home at any given time. I also re-load to save money and have another thousand rounds of that at home.
My point is that, what some people consider to be “large” amounts of ammunition are simply not, and trying to catch would-be shooters by counting bullets is ridiculous.

And theoretically speaking, just 4 grams of Botulinum toxin is enough to kill the entire population of the earth!
If released in the air, just 1 gram of botulism toxin is enough to kill about a million people!
I hope I don’t see a day where it’s actually used as a weapon.
Thankfully it is rather hard to produce.

Do you have a different opinion on climate change?
|
The climate has always and will always change.
The current climate is actually quite stable and relatively favorable for the majority of life on Earth, although it is slightly too cold, which is leading to excess winter deaths of thousands of humans and millions of animals.
Climate change is controlled almost exclusively by solar and celestial cycles interacting with various atmospheric, land and ocean parameters of the Earth.
There is absolutely no proof/experimental validation that human emissions of CO2 are leading to catastrophic global warming-NONE.
Thus, anyone who believes in CAGW does so by faith, not by the scientific method.
There is enormous and rapidly increasing evidence that the CAGW supposition is false and even a global scam perpetrated by wealthy investors in the $multi-trillion-dollar climate industry and globalists and socialists hoping to replace democratic free-market capitalism with authoritarian global socialism:

Would you do the same thing to Chris Rock if you were Will Smith?
|
No. I have a few reasons
Firstly, I can tell you precisely one joke from Oscar night and the only award winner I actually know of is Will Smith himself. Regardless of his motivation, I will now remember a throw away joke about Jada for a long time. If he'd just laughed and let it go, I'd have never heard and wouldn't remember even if I did.
Secondly, it's a bald joke. It's not a big deal to me. He didn't insult her look, just compared it to a movie whose title character does have a relatively similar haircut. I barely would even register it as anything insulting.
Thirdly, I'm not in favour of resorting to words with violence. I'm sure exceptions occur but in general, I'm not one who condones violent escalations.
Finally, Will Smith has been a very likeable guy historically in my eyes. I've liked the dude since Fresh Prince. I know still like him and still think he is a tremendous, versatile actor but that he's also a bit of a dick. I'm not as cool or charming as Will Smith so I doubt I could weather the storm.

What is the string theory about?
|
6 year old story. You remember E = mc squared? Well maybe matter IS energy, a special form of energy. One that is forced to act like matter. One way that might work is to assume that certain chunks (called quanta) of energy might be in a “state" (like ice is a state of water). And (maybe) we can think of those chunks (which are sub atomic particles as strings of energy.
We can do all that with numbers O.K. but so far nobody has shown that it is real.

Which processor has been used in the new Tecno Spark 7P smartphone?
|
The new smartphone from the Chinese company comes with a 90Hz display and offers triple rear cameras. Tecno Spark 7P also carry a MediaTek Helio G70 SoC and a large 5,000mAh battery. The smartphone's other key highlights include dual selfie flash, four distinct colours, and up to 128GB of storage. Tecno Spark 7P also comes with preloaded features such as Super Night Mode and Dirac Stereo Sound Effect.
The phone is powered by the octa-core Mediatek Helio G70 SoC, along with 4GB of RAM as standard. For photos and videos, the Tecno Spark 7P has a triple rear camera setup that comprises a 16-megapixel primary sensor. There is also an 8-megapixel selfie camera sensor at the front along with dual LED flash.
The ISP inside the Helio G70 supports a single 48MP camera (Quad Bayer) or two 16MP cams (the second could be ultra wide, tele, macro, whatever the maker fancies). Depth maps can be calculated in hardware and there is NeuroPilot for AI tasks (object and scene recognition, bokeh enhancement).
Besides the storage, another thing that may limit this chip’s use in mid-range models is the 1080p/60fps cap on video capture. Goodies like EIS and rolling shutter correction are on board, however. The chipset has a modem capable of dual 4G VoLTE and 300Mbps downlink. Local connectivity is served by Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) and Bluetooth 5.0.

Were Rajputs better warriors than Muslims?
|
The Muslims had more merited soldiers. The Muslims selected and advanced warriors based on their competence in contrast to the hereditary positions held by Rajputs. It was military Darwinism.

Malik Kafur who managed to subdue the south was a low caste Hindu slave.

Malik Ambar an Abbysynian slave was elevated to the position of Prime Minister of the Ahmadnagar Sultanate. He managed to hold his own against the Mughals and is also regarded as a pioneer in guerrilla warfare in the region which the Marathas later followed.

The Muslims also had a wider talent pool to choose from unlike the Rajputs. Slaves frequently turned generals. Caste entrenched Hindu society (especially in the north) did not allow for such mobility. So overall the Muslims were better warriors.

Do professional actors still audition?
|
Professional actors? Yes. Stars? Rarely.
It’s important to remember that the vast majority of professional actors (narrowly defined as someone who makes their living from it) are not stars. They may make their living doing regional theater, co-stars and guest stars on TV, and supporting roles in feature films. Most of these people all continue to audition for their roles.
Stars, however, have the power to make or break a project just by being attached to it. They are far less apt to be asked to prove themselves in an audition.

Why did punk rock die?
|
“Punk rock” isn’t allowed to be popular.
That’s kind of the point. And if a band or musician does grow a large mainstream audience? Then one must assume they are no longer punk, correct? This is why Kurt Cobain intentionally made the followup album to “Nevermind” a distorted, sparsely recorded collection of extended screams for “In Utero”. Even the name of the LP is rather disconcerting and leaves you with a foul taste in your taste.
Yet, even amongst the howls and angst, there is “All Apologies” and “Dumb” and “Pennyroyal Tea” — which touch upon true beauty and actual art and provide melodies like few other tunes from the same time period.
Or in other words, even when Cobain was trying to be anti-social, ugly, and apathetic, he couldn’t help writing some really poignant timeless tunes.
And what exactly is “punk rock”?
It all depends on who you ask.
Some will point to the first time feedback was intentionally recorded on a widely released LP with the Who’s “Anyway Anyhow Anywhere” or the first instance of a rock musician destroying his equipment a’la Pete Townsend from the same band, or the amazing garage rock surge that took place worldwide in the mid- and late-60s when teenagers realized there was no better way to meet girls than standing on a stage playing barre chords.Some believe it began and ended with the Sex Pistols and their brief plane wreck of an existence.Some think The Stooges created it, the Ramones and Clash perfected it, and the New Wave genre killed it for good more than forty years ago.Some think every band already mentioned didn’t even come close to being punk and point to the (at times unlistenable) frenzied sounds of hardcore, straight edge, and thrashcore in the abrasive offerings of Crass, Agnostic Front, GBH, 7 Seconds, Black Flag, Husker Du, and then the Cro-Mags, DRI, S.O.B., and Hellnation.Some think it’s a regional thing and believe it was born and died in the UK — or that it arose from the ashes of the Hippy and Folk Singer genres on the West Coast of the United States via bands like The Dead Kennedys, X, The Germs, T.S.O.L., and The Minutemen, or sprang from the Ronald Reagan-inspired rage emanating from Bad Brains and Minor Threat in Washington D.C. or was created like a Frankenstein in one single dumpy club in the N.Y. bowery (CBGBs).Some think Green Day and Blink-182 and Rancid were punk and you can almost hear the Gen-Xers who grew up in the 80s snickering like snarky hyenas.Some think punk rock was personified by those who had never heard the words “punk rock” in the form of lo-fi yet innovative trailblazers like The Velvet Underground, MC5, the New York Dolls, The Stranglers, and Television.Some believe punk was at its best in those artists from neighboring genres like The Misfits (horror rock), The Pogues (Celtic folk), Uncle Tupelo (alt-country), The Cramps (rockabilly), Parliament (funk), Bauhaus (goth), The Gun Club (blues), Roxy Music (glam), and Motorhead (metal).Some say it’s been dead for decades and point to mass-produced Ramones-emblazened t-shirts, the mainstreaming of skate culture, the raw anger and previously unseen black social commentary of rap and its increasing global influence since the 80s, and the MTV-ication of once alt-authentic bands like the Talking Heads, REM, and Soundgarten as indicators that punk was killed by its own unsuspecting televised popularity, almost in spite of itself.
And some, like myself, believe that as long as there are idealistic young people out there who can plug in a guitar and keep a 4/4 beat on drums and have a nagging sense of urgency and who simply don’t fit in — anywhere — with any clique, social circle, or conformist dynamic — and who aren’t held down by sonic perfection, overly pedantic music theorizing, technically obsessed yet masturbatory approaches to performing, or some politically correct messaging, there will always be a form of “punk rock” being played in some basement, VFW hall, alley way, or hole in the wall club.
How popular it is doesn’t matter.
In fact, appealing to the masses is anathema to what punk rock should be and that’s a goddamn good thing.
Because the best punk shows I ever saw were never in arenas or stadiums. They took place right in front of me, within spitting distance, and during every one of them, I swear, I would look behind me in disbelief, wondering where all the people were that weren’t there. All of those that were missing what I was hearing and feeling.
And it would actually make me smile. Knowing I was on to something that they weren’t.
Suckers.

What is it like to be morbidly obese (BMI > 40)?
|
I was morbidly obese. Morbid obesity is a BMI higher than 40 or higher than 35 with a health issue related to obesity, like diabetes.
Let me start saying I've been overweight almost my whole life.
When I met my husband, I was considered obese (220lbs at 5 ft 3) and got pregnant.
I want to add that my husband is not obese. He’s actually a body builder and still loved my rolls. He encouraged me to show my body to him and he made me comfortable with my skin. He’s a great man.
Anyways, stayed the same weight. Had my kid and over a couple years ballooned to 285lbs.
Let me add, I have never suffered from high blood pressure or diabetes. I didn’t have any medical issues or take medication. I didn’t feel miserable.
I always got told to lose weight but no one ever told me how. I honestly didn’t understand I had to burn more calories than I consumed and also incorporate exercise. I’m not kidding.
I did have a miscarriage. Can’t really say if it was weight related or not. Even small women can have miscarriages. But my miscarriage made me extremely depressed.
Anyways, at my highest, my BMI was 50.5, so I was morbidly obese. We ended up moving states to get away from drama and stress.
Just from moving states over a couple months my weight dropped 20lbs because we moved to Florida and were doing a lot more walking and exploring our new area. This wasn’t an intentional weight loss.
Over a weeks’ time, I was waking myself up from sleep. I think I was waking up because I couldn't breathe. Extra weight can cause this.
My husband’s new job offered health reimbursement if we joined a gym and I thought why not spend some time doing something my husband loves? He never forced me to go but loved spending time together.
I ended up talking to the manager at GNC. He was a nutritionist. He explained my calories to me and explained how I could get more information online and showed me some protein I could drink before meals and as meal replacements.
When I started to lose weight I was at 265lbs. I am now hovering at 185lbs. In total I have lost 100lbs. I am still considered obese with a BMI of 32-ish.
Looking back I realize how out of control I was eating. Eating for comfort. Out of boredom. Eating until I was sick. I just was stuck and I didn’t know how to get out. I just didn't have the right tools. I feel so much better. I love shopping for cute clothes. Not having to worry if something isn't going to fit.
I still have another 40lbs to be at a healthy BMI but I found out I am pregnant again. This time I am equipped with all the tools I need to stay healthy.
Edit — thanks for all the upvotes everyone. I am 7 months pregnant and have gained weight during the pregnancy which i fully intend on losing. My obgyn did not advise for me to continue on my diet until after baby is born. even though i am still considered obese, all of my testing during pregnancy has came back perfectly thus far. Thanks again!
Edit 2 - still in awe of all the upvotes! I delivered a healthy baby girl in October. i know being morbidly obese it would be harder to carry a pregnancy, and having surgery is even more of a risk. I will always be grateful for who I was, as it taught me I had enough will power to control my eating and learn healthy habits. I’ve lost about half of my pregnancy weight and now following a keto way of eating (I don’t like to call it a diet)

What is your favorite guitar joke?
|
Not exactly a guitar joke:
An anthropologist travels to a remote village to study the indigenous people. On stepping down from his bush-plane the first thing he notices is the sound of continuous drumming. He is introduced to the local tribesman who has been assigned to be his guide, and his first question is, “What is the reason for this drumming?” The guide’s eyes widen. He wags his finger at the anthropologist and says, “If drums stop — very bad!” The anthropologist asks, “But why?” The guide folds his arms over his chest and repeats, “If drums stop — very bad!”
This continues day and night; the drumming never stops for a moment. But every time the anthropologist tries to find out more, the guide resolutely repeats, “If drums stop — very bad!” and refuses to say more.
Days go by — weeks — the drumming relentless and unceasing, until the anthropologist thinks he will go insane.
Finally one day, the drums suddenly stop! Everyone in the village gasps at the sudden silence. The guide turns white as a sheet. The anthropologist says, “What is it?! What does it mean?!?!” and the guide screams in horror: “BASS SOLO!!!!!!”

What are the advantages and disadvantages of using a non-geared two-wheeler over a geared one?
|
Hello,
I will answer this question in simple layman terms
ADVANTAGES:-
High fuel economy.Easy to ride in traffic.Relatively simple operation anybody can drive.Comfortable riding position.Large boot space.Low maintainance.Option for storage box near knees.Feels nimble like a bicycle with a motor .Usually compact in nature.Can easily go through tight spaces and small alleyways.Can be used to haul heavy loads.Seats are wide for the passenger.Option for built-in mobile phone charger .Comfortable for ladies wearing sarees and men wearing dhoti/lungi .
DISADVANTAGES
Low capacity engine .Low power output.No ABS.Has a tendency to skid .Bike has a control over you not the other way around .Cant be used for cruising .It is not built for highways .Very limited torque .Riding mountains can be a real challenge especially the descent.No visible engine braking .Limited only for urban use cant be used offroad.Cannot enjoy the twists and turns on a curvy road.Maximum top speed cant exceed 110 or 120 kmph.Very limited cosmetic and mechanical mods available.
If you are a beginner at riding bikes these automatics are the best choice for you but once you learn the manual completely (no stalling and smoother shifts along with a good clutch control) you will definitely stick with geared motorcycles.
Nothing can match the control and ability of the geared motorcycle
The Geared bike is like your favourite servant and goes where you wish and you have 100% control over it.
I personally prefer manual over automatics I learnt to ride with the Legend,the One and Only YAMAHA RX100 and my first bike is BAJAJ DOMINAR 400.
I am fortunate to have both these bikes in my garage.
Cheers 🙂
