    Uptown shredding

    Here is another video SIA - The Greatest (Cover) M5ag_2b02kc Yeah, again while it might not be everyone's forté. Michael Jackson's (Beat it) EN6nLcix45U

    Uptown shredding

    Hey, this is just another genre. Do you have any demos of your stuff? What do you play classical guitar, latin...... ? I just like this version of uptown funk and wanted to share it. ;) Also, English is not this guys first language, it is Norwegian... IT must be the viking bloodlines.

    Uptown shredding

    Alright some of you might have already found this video, but I found this guy by accident through Erock, the same guy who does a metal version of Danger Zone that we use for our high power rocket videos. Leo Moracchioli has taken uptown funk by Bruno Mars and chromed and lead plated it...

    A question for those knowledgeable about radioactivity

    Some of the most insignificant looking things can turn out to have the most interesting stories to tell. Looks are usually deceiving. BTW--> My Bircon surveyor MS got it's new board installation today. I had to epoxy it onto the back of the analog panel meter. This will give the ability for...

    A question for those knowledgeable about radioactivity

    I too have a quite a radioactive "collection" and it dual purposes as a reference source for gamma spectroscopy, ( also to show to students when I am talking about nuclear related topics or light and energy/ not to mention some of the specimens are highly collectable. :evil: Nothing useless...

    What South Koreans think of North Korea

    Indeed, China likes supplying weapons and fuel to DPRK. Many freighters being caught refuelling offshore to avoid the blockade (sanctions). Well informed sources has it that China also supplies precursors for chemical weapons that make up the DPRK's stockpile.

    A question for those knowledgeable about radioactivity

    The ratio posted is a volume based on the Z rating. Yes. Ch. 8 of Introduction to Radiological Physics and Radiation Dosimetry by Frank Attix does a good job of explaining stopping power and mass stopping power. The mass stopping power is dependent on properties of both the incident particle...

    What South Koreans think of North Korea

    Maybe right on that, however with Mun JaeIn at the helm in ROK, he might just be the man to do it. A little note, President Mun JaeIn was literally my next door neighbour in Seodaemun-gu, Seoul. He is a well meaning guy. If anyone could thaw the ice with the North, he'd be the one to do it...

    What South Koreans think of North Korea

    :thinking: It is the sanctions that only further their quest for attention and obtaining a nuclear bargaining chip. Marshall Kim JongEun is no dummy, nor is he "crazy". What the North Koreans are doing is putting pressure on the region to remind the UN that it has nuclear ambitions (measured...

    Any Vapers Here?

    heh, I think you'd need to look into long term use studies. I'm not saying Alkaloids have no benefit. They most certainly do. However, Nicotine has been shown, along with an array of other alkaloids as being necrotic to blood vessels ( along with others) as well as blocking Cardiac A Type K+...

    A question for those knowledgeable about radioactivity

    Yes, and you'd be right on Beta electrons causing secondary emissions. This is why when making shielding, one laminates a number of materials together so as to avoid the situation of X-ray emissions from the bremsstrahlung. Higher energy beta from Y90/Sr90 is particularly problematic in this...

    A question for those knowledgeable about radioactivity

    No, as explained by encap not at all. A pound of concrete does not equal a pound of lead. Sorry! Pb's Z value is many times that of concrete. You need less Pb to do what given amount of concrete roughly 1:5.4 Ratio. information provided by https://www.nde-ed.org

    A question for those knowledgeable about radioactivity

    hmm, mass is only part of the story. Density the of a given material matters a great deal more when we talk about shielding efficiency. Density causes the radiation to attenuate faster as denser elements on the periodic table generally have more elections per unit volume. You need far...

    A question for those knowledgeable about radioactivity

    I plan on doing a site inspection of a very high grade Uraninite/Thorite/ rare earth deposit in BC sometime this summer or later spring.. weather dependant. The area is in question happens to be in the vicinity of Clearwater BC. I have access to several survey meters with Gamma scintillation...

    A question for those knowledgeable about radioactivity

    Some still around... found some at Canadian tire.. :eg: You're right of course, most of the Thorium mantles have been replaced with cerium oxide.

    A question for those knowledgeable about radioactivity

    The device in question that allows you to see sparkles with your eye is a Spinthariscope. Some of the hotter Uranium ore samples can liberate enough alpha particles to cause the ZnS screen to scintillate. Uranium ore is still very easy to obtain in the mail, and I know of a few venors here in...

    A question for those knowledgeable about radioactivity

    In nature Uranium238 always has some U235 in it (fractions of a %) so while U238 is an alpha emitter / you'll get beta and gamma from all the decay products associated with U235&U238. The activity isn't going to be enough to produce much usable energy using a phosphor. Purifying the ore...

    Any Vapers Here?

    it's most certainly not causation. Simply because it is a potent parasympathomimetic stimulant, right away you have an effect on the heart and vascular system and the central nervous system. Seeing as it is a parasympathomimetic alkaloid it therefore constricts and eventually damages blood...

    Any Vapers Here?

    Well, it is wickedly strong here in BC. A couple of varieties that are common here. I also have little tolerance for Alcohol. So I don't drink much either. :beer:

    Any Vapers Here?

    Actually I know Cannabis quite well. (maybe, too well) . Unfortunately, though I have never been able to get a tolerance for it. When I am around people smoking or using "shatter/ or nailing BHO) I sometimes get a second hand high, most of the time it is a light feeling, not very intense...
