You aren´t very consequently, aren´t you? ;)

great Albatross has the greatest wingspan of any bird, up to 11.2 feet. albatross have a glide ratio of 22:1 or 23:1 (they fall 1 unit of distance for every 22 or 23 same units of distance that they move forward. imagine a wing suit with that ratio.), and can glide nearly 1000km per day without flapping, by using dynamic soaring and slope soaring. they can lock their wings in the extended position, using no muscle to keep them open, and their heart rate when soaring is basically the same as resting. it is assumed they can sleep in the air.

sadly, many species are near extinction

That's unfortunate. Sadly humans have already caused many species to go extinct :(
 
:crackup: its actually thru-hole based on the certificate. That's a shame cause I needed someone certified in Through-hole soldering:(

HUH! So i am told :)

How does one go about getting certified. I want to get better, ESP AT SMD!!!!! PLEASE HELP LOL!

All i do is bridge, and i can't UN-Bridge :(

A good community college will offer courses on electronics and soldering. The soldering
usually requires no prerequisites for the beginner classes.

That is. But I might know a guy who can take care of you. :crackup:
 
Random fact: Peanut butter will phosphoresce (glow) weakly for a couple of seconds after being illuminated with a 405nm laser. I have yet to have this explained to me but I've demonstrated it many times.

Is 405nm the only laser this will work with? Because that's badass. xD
 
I'll have to try it with my 445. I'll let you know.

Heard it was the proteins. My bathroom tiles do this too (tho obviously there're no proteins there). I shoot them at night when I'm bored :D

Lobsters don't' age. Unless they succumb to illness & injury or a predatory advance (or fishing boat ;) ) , they could live for ever.
