And unless you have to put in a lot of legwork to gain some traction. Since the scene is small in whatever City your in large or small there are parties and social things you have to go to be be seen. Its literally just a Facebook for World of Warcraft players, fat people, or nymphos. They whore and troll on it just like FB.

practicalmachinist.com Thread: OT - impregnating wood

Royldean Join Date Dec 2011 Location Schwenksville, PA Posts 1,261
Hello GregSY
I'm not sure if you can impregnate wood with polyurethane or not, but you sure can with oil. I used to use some oak for saw blade guides on my sawmill & they would wear out in a few days. An old time sawyer told me to have them soaking in a can of oil when they were not in use. It made a world of difference. I sawed thousands of feet of lumber & never had to adjust them as there was zero wear after that oak was impregnated with oil

WVU had a research project going on in the early '60's casually referred to as 'Atomic Wood'. They had to use a vacuum chamber to get the resins they were testing INTO the wood samples. Irradiation in a nuke reactor followed, hardening the infused plastics. Goal was improved strength, rot-resistance, dimensional stability, etc. And cheap scalability. Which last part failed.

Closest commercial product seen, at least in concept, were the trim strips on BMW and Mercedes 'genuine walnut' interiors. AFAIK done with heat and pressure, 'maybe' UV light, but not radiation.

May have lasted longer with less care than the 'natural' ones used on British luxury cars, but looked like plastic the whole time, and not even as 'natural' looking as GOOD plastic, so no real gain.

Otherwise, when as-growed, dried, and reasonably cheaply post-treated wood won't do, one simply uses a better wood (lignum vitae and cousins) ..... or some other material entirely.

The economics just aren't right for fighting Mother Nature much further than that.

One half-solvent thin coat, one quarter-solvent thin coat, one full-strength coat of urethane is all I am willing to put into such projects. It works well - really well - on particle board/OSB, but only marginally better than two ordinary coats on 'real' wood.

Interesting stuff ; and yes this is how Faberge died, too!

Hygroscopicity of wood impregnated with linseed oil

Abstract
The reduction in hygroscopicity as spruce wood is impregnated with linseed oil may be accounted for using a molecular exclusion model. On the basis of the model, each linseed oil molecule appears to displace 90 water molecules and occupy 6 hydrogen bonding sites in the wood.

Everspace dev paid thousands to influencers who were “shit at playing the game”
By Matt Martin, Thursday, 19 April 2018 14:43 GMT

When you pay an influencer or streamer to promote your game, make sure they don’t play it like a “fucking moron”.

That’s the brutal advice from one of the developers of Everspace, Michael Schade, who revealed Rockfish Games had paid up to 5,000 euros per hour for a pro streamer only for it to backfire very publicly.

Illiterate report on personally experienced pain. All that the experience buys is a uselessly unactionable "before paying a moron 5`000 euros an hour, pay a different moron to review the first moron's previous hours" piece of advice.

The Almodóvar Project
Julieta (2016) 14/04/2016

It’s not been a great week for Pedro Almodóvar. First, one of his most beloved Chicas, Chus Lampreave, died at the age of 85. Then he was one of the many people named with connections to the Panama Papers and he cancelled his promotional appearance for Julieta, his first film in three years and follow up to what is considered to be by many (not me!) one of his weakest films, Los pasajeros amantes.

I’ve been looking forward to this film, so much that I started this project rewatching all 19 of his previous films. I wanted something good, something brilliant, another Todo sobre mi madre or at least a ¡Átame!

My expectations were high as I went to the Cines Golem in the Alhóndiga, I mean Zentroa Azkuna, in central Bilbao to see the film the (very rainy) day after its Spanish release date. Were they met? The jury’s still out on that.

Nothing there besides moronic self-absorbtion in that vein.

Cleaning and Picking Meat from a Crab

Hermit Crab Care Guide^iv

Hermit crabs make adorable pets but these little packages of cuteness are surprisingly high-maintenance and require very exacting care.

Hermit crabs are widely believed to be easy to care for, and ideal first pets for children. Neither of these beliefs is true. Unfortunately, hermit crabs are very difficult to keep healthy, and they should be kept in groups. Not only are hermit crabs are not hermit-like at all, they are gregarious partiers who will keep a crab-party going all night.

You’ve probably seen the clear plastic critter-carriers and one-gallon fish tanks where hermit crabs are sometimes displayed. These are not safe homes for hermit crabs. In fact, if the critter-carrier has a standard “berry-basket” top for ventilation, the crab inside is probably already dying a slow and painful death. Hermit crabs breathe air through modified gills. They will drown in water, and they have no lungs. If the gills ever dry out, the animal is in serious trouble. The resulting death by suffocation can take months, but it is inevitable. Therefore, maintaining sufficient humidity in the hermit crab enclosure is very, very important.

You know, there's oodletons of them at my favorite beach, and we did briefly consider taking one in as a pet, but then it seemed like they'd be very fucking unhappy away from the beach. Turns out we were right ; and I had no idea about the utterly insane "can't breathe either in air or in water" arrangement. Poor little guys!

It turns out that the ready accessibility of a pristine beach is saving me a lot of work and a decent chunk of change -- I can go commune with the supercute whenever I damn well feel like.

Communication Protocols
Posted by Jared in VIP Perspectives on Mar 14, 2014 5:05:56 AM

Communication ProtocolsIn the networking world, we see the word "protocols" quite often. Just what is a protocol? The dictionary will define a protocol as a set of rules or a process or procedure of how to proceed or act. Communication protocols in the network are the rules that are followed when transmitting and receiving or exchanging information. Back when I was studying for the CCNA, two protocols came to mind when we exchange data over a network. Yes, you know them well. They are Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and User Datagram Protocol (UDP). TCP has certain attributes. It is connection oriented, has greater overhead, is slower than UDP, has acknowledgements and is reliable in helping to make sure our message arrives. It has a larger header and contains flow control mechanisms.

I really dislike this attempt to merge technical writing with bad female prose ; in any case it sure as fucksticks isn't "VIP".

DAVID WALKER/STUFF

Artist Sam Mahon and others carry his sculpture, a very large statue of Nick Smith defecating into a drinking glass, on the footpath outside of the Christchurch ECan office in September.

OPINION: Two thousand five hundred years ago, the Athenian, Cleisthenes, invented democracy and ostracism. At base what he had established were equal rights for all citizens along with a common vote to exile any oligarchy that might threaten the common good.

Holy shit just beat a pantsuit to grease spot height today.

In some works democracy is bad. It is generally presented as an ineffectual form of government highly prone to corruption, demagoguery and takeovers by radicals and, in some portrayals, as a form of mob rule which tramples on individual rights to appeal to public sentiment.
It can also be presented this way by authors who don't necessarily approve of other forms of government, but are cynical enough that they consider all forms of government to be flawed (with the inclusion of no government at all). As Winston Churchill put it "Democracy is the worst form of government, except for all the other methods that have been tried".note
For most of history, say, before the Dutch Republic, the term "Democracy" was more-or-less synonymous with "Anarchy" or "Mob Rule," believed by many to be a utopian idea that could never work in practice and would lead to the collapse of society. The term is rarely used this way today because the forms and ideas of democracy shifted radically from Athens to the Middle Ages.

Notes for a Discussion of Ricoeur's Symbolism of Evil
Uploaded by Sean Hannan

2
Contingency of Historical Symbols: At the end of his introduction (p. 19-24), Ricoeur
acknowledges that there‟s a fundamental contingency in his project. That contingency
comes out of the fact that he has to start from within a certain historical tradition of symbolism. His happens t
o be „Western,‟ which he takes to be a kind of encounter between
philosophy as it was practiced by the Greeks and ancient Jewish culture. He is not saying that all humans from every possible background must be held up to some standard of Western symbolism. Instead, he is trying to get from a historically situated position
—
the
symbolism of evil in „Western‟ texts—
to a broader understanding of the experiences those texts can evoke. It may seem awkward that he puts historical contingency side by side with a description of human experience, but his procedure here is related to how he sees
phenomenology and hermeneutics intersecting (see above). Phenomenology‟s
openness to meaning also
opened it up to history, culture, contingency. The „bare evidence‟ of lived experience was then made slightly less bare, since it comes to us
dressed in historically and culturally influenced clothing. If we want to get at meaningful experience, then, we have to start with specific historical traditions and then try to go through them to reach out at something more broad-ranging. In other words, we have to start with
symbols
and go through
myths
before we get at abstract or universalizing
speculation
. The Symbols
Ricoeur starts to get at the „substance‟ of his argument in the next three chapters, each of
which deals with a way of symbolizing fault. What he gives us is a
typology
of symbols. The point is to run through these three
types
of symbols and trace out the picture of evil they
paint for us. On the one hand, Ricoeur‟s approach is
historical

: it makes use of particular examples from textual traditions (e.g., the prophets, the Pharisees, Greek tragedy). On the other hand, his main criterion for judgment is
phenomenological
: he is trying to demarcate different types of experience, not just different historical representations. He is, in some way, trying to use historical representations to get at distinct modes of possible experience.

Abstract
Purpose – This study sets out to examine conflict style preferences in India and the predictive effects of various demographic variables on conflict style preference. Design/methodology/approach – Data were gathered in India (n=827) among Muslims and Hindus. Conflict was measured using Oetzel's Conflict Style Measure. To answer the research questions, repeated measures ANOVA and multiple regressions were conducted. Findings – The findings reveal that conflict style preference among Hindus in India differs significantly and that Hindus prefer the integrating and dominating styles, whilst showing the least inclination towards the avoiding and obliging styles. Muslims prefer the integrating and compromising styles and least prefer the dominating and avoiding styles. Analyses of the demographic variables' predictive influence reveal that age and sex are significant predictors for all five conflict styles for both Muslims and Hindus. Education has a mixed predictive influence on conflict style among Hindus and Muslims. Research limitations/implications – Use of self-report instruments and the majority of the participants coming from middle-class backgrounds could limit the generalizability of the study. Practical implications – The study calls for conflict mediators to consider the influence of group membership and educational level on conflict management/resolution. The research also discusses national/international conflict intervention. Social implications – This paper informs individuals regarding the way in which two large religious and cultural groups differ in their approaches to conflict. For a nation that has experienced a history of conflict between these two cultural/religious groups, this paper can help shed light on how to bridge the conflict between them. Originality/value – There are no studies directly comparing the conflict styles of Muslims and Hindus.

If the "Data were gathered in India (n=827)" part didn't send you off laughing like a maniac there's no saving you. Let it be said that any study of humans sporting n<1e9 is to be discarded outright. But then you get to "the majority of the participants coming from middle-class backgrounds" and just...

Fucking die already, idiots.

They're all the same one thing! It's not just that they're doing "studies" on "India" by asking the ten fucktards they know whether they like the faceshit item they all agreed to like in advance. It's that the whole fucking content of the web as far as "an examination of conflict" is concerned then becomes that single piece of inconsequential crap. This is your information superhighway, how do you like it ?

Tuesday a day of many firsts for Indian Americans
By Geeta Goindi | January 6, 2017

Swearing-in ceremony in the morning, a celebratory gala in the evening.
Pramila Jayapal is being sworn in by House Speaker Paul Ryan on January 3, 2017. Her mother, Maya Jayapal arrived well in time to witness and even partake in the historic swearing-in event holding a copy of both the Bhagavad Gita and the United States Constitution on which Pramila took the ceremonial oath of office.

The mantra of many so-called serious collectors is, "In order to be a serious collector, you must collect postal history." Casual collectors may or may not choose to agree.

A little history lesson can be useful in any area of stamp collecting, so here we will take a look at the basics: a brief history of the United States postal system and postage stamp production.Some casual collectors, however, simply might see postal history as too daunting, or they might just have no idea where to begin.

Not my cup, but still a cut above the usual webfare.

The First Of Many Firsts
There is a first time for everything.

A terrifying, electrifying, exciting, nerve-racking first. Something new and foreign to you.

Everyone has a first. Don’t worry if you are behind on one of them, or even have yet to have that first that someone else has.

A first kiss, a first intimate moment, first job, a first full time job, and or a first boyfriend, girlfriend. There are firsts all over the world, first time walking, first time riding a bike, first time driving a car. First time flying alone on an airplane, traveling alone, staying home alone, traveling to a new city, state, country.

There are many firsts.

Yeah, like that first time you've got a mandated wordcount, a "topic", some "keywords" and absolutely nothing to say.

HHS Secretary: “There really is no such thing as medical marijuana”
By Megan Bachman Published: March 3, 2018 4 Comments

U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Alex Azar, visiting the Dayton area to learn about responses to the opioid crisis, said he sees no role for medical marijuana as a pain relief alternative to prescription opioids.

“I would want to emphasize first that there really is no such thing as medical marijuana,” Azar said. “We have treatments that are approved by the Food and Drug Administration that are safe, that are proven to be safe and effective for pain, safe and effective for other conditions.”

“There is no FDA approved use of marijuana, a botanical plant,” he added.

Absolutely no conceivable relation between the title, the summary and the soundbytes. The most transparent of drivers behind both "content" and "packaging". How to not despise the empire of imbeciles ?

It's a "botanical plant", don't you know. Because the entire scam is spun out of categorical errors, and what's the fuel of a categorical error engine if not a ready supply of spurious categories ?

UK’s Porton Down military lab head: Russia not identified as source of Skripal poisoning
By Julie Hyland 4 April 2018

Scientists at the UK’s Porton Down military laboratory have not identified Russia as the source of the nerve agent used in the alleged attempted assassination of former double agent Sergei Skripal and his daughter, Yulia.

How would this fucking work, anyway ? Doctors down at the trauma unit routinely fail to identify perpetrators.

Oh, wait, "scientists" is the last remaining faux font of credibility ersatz, is it. Will scientists down at Idiots' Government Labs turn tricks for pay anytime soon, by the way ? I might have some ideas.

Matriarchy vs. Patriarchy
AKBear Saturday April 11, 2015 · 6:37 PM CST

In the last few weeks, I've had several discussions with people about matriarchy and patriarchy in social structures, matrilineal and patrilineal ways of viewing the world. And, what I've found out is rather amazing.

A lot of people think that matriarchy is the exact opposite in structure as patriarchy. Patriarchy is what most people see these days in dominant, mainstream societies -- being governed by men, having judiciaries dominated by men, children taking the man's last name, the old idea in the modern practice of coverture in Christian, straight marriage, the veneration of old white guys throughout history and the nearly-complete disregard to women's contribution to that history, etc, etc, etc.

Matriarchy, following this logic, would be the complete subjugation of men to women and follow the strict hierarchical structure inherent in patriarchy. I can see why matriarchy is such a scary idea to those deeply invested in patriarchy . . . and, I'm here to offer some reassurance by offering what matriarchy looked like in pre-contact Americas.

Matriarchy was a term used to label any society that did not follow the European idea of hierarchical patriarchy. It was applied to every society that did not conform to what Europeans thought of as being "civilized," (which was anything but civilized, imho),

Very not fucking amazing at all. Banning dailykos.com also.

Just like the case with "conflict [in India]", the whole web consists of the same repackaged nonsense here, also!

The Royal Side of the Fascism Behind Agenda 21
May 20, 2012, 1:13 pm by Guest Author 3 Comments

William Kay has contributed previously in the Gulag. He is a student of the Old European-side roots of the ecofascist movement, which has, collaborating with their Marxist cousins, given us the Agenda 21 strategy for the destruction of popular and national sovereignty and with it, Western Civilization – all in the name of environmentalism.

One should note that Kay tends to refer to Old Europe’s right-left paradigm, perhaps best defined in the French Revolution and onward, of aristocrats on the right and Jacobins/Marxists on the left, each competing for their own brands of authoritarianism. That is distinct from our American view, of the authoritarian Marxists on the left and devotees of the republican social contract of sovereign Citizens on the right. The Old European right-left paradigm is much like the Marxian view, except the Marxists have no regard for the Natural Law responsibilities of free moral agents accountable to God, and thus they bundle us patriots in with the those of the aristocrats they cannot swing their way, into the bourgeoisie, as they may prefer to say.

Seems pretty well dead, but hey, maybe interesting item to entomologists : gulagbound.com.

What You Have Been Doing Since Your Last Job?
Tips for Answering Interview Questions When You Have an Employment Gap
By Alison Doyle Updated January 29, 2018

If you have an employment gap since your last job, employers will want to know how you have spent your time since you last worked. You can expect to be asked, "What have you been doing since your last job?"

The best way to answer this question is, to be honest, but do have an answer prepared. You will want to let the interviewer know that you were busy and active, regardless of whether you were out of work by choice, or otherwise.

This has been so very tipful I need a drink.

Above: The Excel Family @ Laidlaw.I know this photo makes the webpage freak out being this big, but any smaller of a photo wouldn't do it justice. Pictures update!, click the link to the right ------>

What haven't I done, would be a better question. From hustling around Auckland trying to sort out the medical scene for the visa, to welcoming the new Laidlaw Students and new Excel Students to the campus, proceeding in and out of all sorts of meetings, it has been full on.

Hebrew has proved to be on this side of ridiculous to learn, and I have never been this scheduled/meeting'ed out in my life. For two weeks I maintained a strenuous early morning regiment of study and exercise, which ended up exhausting me as I was burning the candle on both ends by not sleeping well as my brain was fully engaged upon going to bed. From about the 11th-13th I began to get the flu, which I shrugged off for a time then relentlessly took me out as I slept 40 hours over a two day period. I'm on the mend (10 days later), feeling better and now "sleeping in."

Why are personal bloggers so fucking terrible at it ? Honest question. I'm not nearly this fucking terrible at it, why is everyone else ?

Because I am starting to suspect it's because they're trying to lie.

Gender and Women's Studies

Gender and Women’s Studies is an interdisciplinary journal that aspires to engage with aspects of gender and sex through a feminist lens covering a broad spectrum of issues, including, but not limited to, the social and natural sciences, the arts, the humanities, and media and popular culture. Being primarily an open access journal, the content of Gender and Women’s Studies will retain readability while maintaining rigorous methodology and critical theoretical approach.

Really ? How ? Don't tell me, "by paying men to proofread" ?

Article Processing Charges
Gender and Women’s Studies accomplishes global open access. The journal, therefore, levies an affordable article-processing charge of $395 for each article accepted for publication.

Ahahahahaha.

Can I Buy My Own Debt for Pennies on the Dollar?

December 18, 2013 • 6 min read by Michael Bovee Comments 2 Comments
During the past few years, there has been a growing awareness of how unpaid debts get bought and sold. The fact that debts can be purchased for steep discounts by investors and collection companies — who then work to collect the full balances owed — has lead to some meaningful discussions, and increased scrutiny of debt buying, and debt collection practices in general. So much so that California recently passed new laws governing how debt buyers go about collecting.

Can You Pay Back Taxes on Someone Else's House?
Written by Tony Guerra; Updated July 19, 2017
Paying someone else's property taxes normally gains you no interest in the property.

Delinquent or back property taxes have caused many homeowners to lose their properties. However, homeowners owing delinquent property taxes usually have some time to pay and can even have somebody else pay them. No law prohibits someone from paying the property taxes due on another person's property, after all.

This is actually fucking untrue : a) squat followed by b) pay delinquent property taxes so you can proceed to c) sue for title.

13 Ways to Deal with Debt Collectors & Agencies

The debt collection industry generates $11 billion a year from the 70 million Americans who haven’t or can’t pay their bills.

Debt collectors get most of their revenue from people who fall hopelessly behind on student loans, medical bills, auto loans, credit cards and home mortgages. Some forms of debt – student loans and medical debt especially – are shooting up so fast that many consumers aren’t even aware they are behind until they receive a call from a collection agency.

Collection agencies often are intimidating, demanding and most of all persistent, in trying to extract whatever money you have available to satisfy your debt. They can be just as aggressive in trying to collect debts you don’t owe, yet some people still pay, just to avoid any more contact with the debt collection agency.

And that is where the trouble begins.
Rule 1: Get Everything in Writing

Pro tip : simply ignore them. There's absolutely nothing they can do, and besides.

How Can I Pay My Delinquent Wells Fargo Car Loan When They Won’t Reply?
By Steve Rhode on October 27, 2016

Question:

Dear Steve,

I have a 2008 Chevy Malibu that I defaulted on the loan to Wells Fargo in 2015 when my work fell way off. I tried to negotiate reinstatement but they ignored both my calls and letters. I even had an attorney write them and got no response. I have kept the car in my garage and have not driven it since March 2016 due to my fear of it being repossessed while I was out. I got a small inheritance and now just want to pay off the car so it will not be repossessed. But Wells Fargo will not reply.

How do I negotiate an agreement with the bank to pay off the car? I am sure the fees are adding up. I think I owe about $12,000 in the contract but am not sure. It seems to me that it would be a win-win for both of us and it would save us both time and money. Thank you

Small claims, probably, though it's unlikely the item's worth the hassle.
