@to_bouzouki@Stephen19718352 "Wear a mask" Greek hypochondriac thinking he/she should lecture people on fitness.
DUDE/DUDETTE - get some exercise and rebuild your testosterone.
I very intentionally started DAY 1 teaching lab procedures/safety and then we'd have a lab.
Told students to read the posted information.
3 or 4 days later I'd go over classroom procedures.
In High School/middle school those lists and sermonizing become a mixed together gumbo of confusion and loss of interest.
TEACH!
Teach with the philosophy "There's not a moment to lose!"
Dozens of public health and disease experts have signed an open letter in support of the nationwide anti-racism protests.
"White supremacy is a lethal public health issue that predates and contributes to COVID-19," they wrote.

Typical 36 kids, bunsen burners, glassware, acids & bases and a variety of other chemicals from mildly harmful to very poisonous.......
And the students wondered why my anxiety level was peaked during labs.
Had a student with a minor injury (broken glassware = cut finger) ....
A couple minutes later I realized that my class was effectively unsupervised as I tended to her (wash & bandaid).
@MattWalshBlog If Iran didn't want a nuclear bomb it would be over right now, Matt. That's the stalemate. I don't think Shi'a Muslims whose eschatology is driven by martyrdom should have weapons grade uranium. Do you? Trump is trying to set the table for our future. It is a noble goal.
@CynicalPublius@GregJaffe@katekelly Here's the key.
The poster #GregJaffe, does NOT name a single individual, whose name was dropped and make a case for their promotion.
What did they do during their last commands that shouts out:
ADMIRAL material!
@johanvcr@StatisticUrban The cattle graze on sage, desert grasses and even cactus.
I'm not familiar with anyone even measuring that intake.
I'd question it's accuracy if they did. Some western ranges require 50 acres for a single cow/calf combination.
Exactly
That's a feedlot.
Not a cow/calf operation.
I've worked on the range.
Click on my picture.
That banner is me leading a string of mules in Northern Montana.
I've worked on ranches in FAR Northeast California, Montana and a bit in Australia (Jackaroo)
It's a hard concept for people who've never seen an open range, much less do the work of herding, branding.......
If you're interested I can give you some names where you can experience the reality.
A bit touristy, real ranches are too busy and too short handed.
The assumption is cattle being fed and watered in a feed lot environment.
Much of our beef starts out as Range cattle.
The water that they drink is from sources NOT used by people.
They have ZERO effect on water supplies for people or crops.
Range cattle roam on land not suitable for planting crops.
Silliness.
Perhaps in Europe, in the US most beef is born on the range.
Range land - suitable for raising beef, but not crops.
Cattle on the range don't use water that would be used for other purposes.
The rain isn't enough to travel in a river- it's lost to man's use.
I wrote a previous short thread on this.
I'll link it next.
80 - 85% of Arizona hay is used in state.
15 - 20% is exported.
Always better to grow an excess in case of a poor harvest.
Excess can be shipped out, at a lesser profit.

People talk about the difficulties in praising God and giving Him credit- when our life is going spectacularly.

The beauty around us, great art, all our needs met - it's all from God.

@StatisticUrban@butleriano A silly thing only a chemist would know:
Californium is actually named after the University of California, really Berkeley where the work was done.
My kid has been a 2nd Lt for about a month.
His ROTC buddies see Hegseth as an inspiration.
HE is where they want to be.... at his age.
Comes close to idolizing him.
They believe in him NOT just because he's fit, they also believe he's got their best interests deep in his heart.
THAT'S a HUGE change from previous administrations seeing them as pawns on a chessboard.
@AprilLuddite@StatisticUrban Those range cattle are utilizing land that is impractical for other Agricultural uses.
Making it pretty efficient.
That land won't grow row crops or vegetables.
It won't grow corn, soy beans, wheat - not even hay.
It will support cattle.
I retired 4 years ago and decided to focus more on health than previously.
6 days a week:
Mornings - alternate either ruck 2 miles or 45 minutes of yoga.
Evenings- alternate 30- 50 minutes on the indoor Bike or an hour with weights.
Resting HR - 57
Blood pressure- back to normal
Weight down - almost there
VO2 max- regularly improving (excellent but not elite!)
Also more time for friends & volunteer activities.
AND that additional time allows me to focus more on my portfolio- damn it makes a difference!
Rate of return dramatically up vs pre- retired time, where it was an infrequent thought.
I'd be wealthier & healthier if I'd have retired sooner.
@JoesKnocking@StatisticUrban Charge farmers more for water = Charge everyone more for food.
Hay prices go up can cause ranchers to sell more of their herd. Prices go down.
BUT 2 - 3 years later reduced quantities of beef sold drive the prices up.
Dairy prices are hit sooner.
