Time for daily bounce…
Hi Hawkeye, I’ve recently come back from a hiatus from the game (since 2015ish). I was in nullsec PvP/ Indy corp before I left so it would be good to get back out there. I’m laid back and enjoy the cooperative parts of the game.

Bounce time
When you drop a ball on a surface, it compresses and squashes slightly, before snapping back to its original shape. Since steel snaps back much faster than rubber, the steel ball will bounce higher, especially when dropped on another very hard surface, like steel. The key is stored energy
Hey there, quick question, would you be willing to accept a miner from a former northern corp?
As long as that Miner was also willing to PVP, and that they were happy to undergo the usual ESI checks and voice interview - then yes, we’d be happy to look at you. Order Collective used to be part of Blades of Grass in Branch - so we WERE a northern corp.
Apart from the lack of skills for pvp, i have no issue with any of those things.
Awesome - come have a chat to us in our ingame channel ORCO. and we can discuss further.
Daily bounce time fact: A bouncing bomb is a bomb designed to bounce to a target across water in a calculated manner to avoid obstacles such as torpedo nets, and to allow both the bomb’s speed on arrival at the target and the timing of its detonation to be pre-determined, in a similar fashion to a regular naval depth charge.[Fn 1] The inventor of the first such bomb was the British engineer Barnes Wallis, whose “Upkeep” bouncing bomb was used in the RAF’s Operation Chastise of May 1943 to bounce into German dams and explode underwater, with effect similar to the underground detonation of the Grand Slam and Tallboy earthquake bombs, both of which he also invented
Daily Bounce fact: " Bounce " is a song by Scottish DJ Calvin Harris. The song features American singer Kelis and is a move away from Harris singing, concentrating more on production.[1] It was released on 10 June 2011 as the first single from Harris’ third studio album, 18 Months (2012)

bounce fact of the day: Inflatable castles (also called closed inflatable trampolines , bouncy houses , bouncy castles , moon bounces , moonwalks , jumpers , or CITs ) are temporary inflatable structures and buildings and similar items that are rented for functions, school and church festivals and village fetes and used for recreational purposes, particularly for children. The growth in the use of such devices has led to a rental industry which includes inflatable slides, obstacle courses, and games. Inflatables are ideal for portable amusements because they are easy to transport and store.

The name given to such structures varies. They have been marketed with such names as “Bounce House”, “Bouncies”,“Moon Bounce”, “Boingalow”, “Astrojump”, “Moonwalk”, “Jolly Jump” and “Spacewalk”.
Inflatable castles have been suggested as having some therapeutic value for children with certain sensory impairments, similar to ball pits.[1]

Bounce fact for the day: Making Eggs That Bounce
Did you ever try to bounce an egg? Don’t! Not until you read through this experiment, anyway.
This experiment is more fun if you do it with a couple of friends, because you can have a bouncing egg contest when you’ve finished it. So round up a couple of pals, a dozen eggs or so, and let’s get started.
As you know, eggs have shells that you must remove before eating.
Standard Procedure
Be sure to completely cover the egg with vinegar so that the entire shell dissolves. If there are any pieces of shell left, the eggs won’t bounce.
If you put eggs in their shells into vinegar, however, the vinegar will do the work of removing the shell for you. That’s right. The vinegar will dissolve the eggshell. This happens because vinegar contains an acid called acetic acid, which reacts with the high calcium content of the eggshell.
It takes three or four days for the shell to dissolve completely, and you must wait until all the shell is gone before trying to bounce the egg.
All you need to do is put some raw chicken eggs into clear, plastic cups. One egg to a cup, please. This allows you to watch the reaction as it occurs. Completely cover each egg with vinegar, and let them sit in a place where they don’t have to be moved.
Check the eggs now and then over the next four days, noting any changes that you see in the shells.
Explosion Ahead
Don’t get carried away with your egg drop, because this experiment can get messy. It’s a good idea to do the drop outside, or in an area that can be easily cleaned, if necessary. An outdoor picnic table or bench would be perfect.
After four days, very carefully, using plastic spoons, remove the eggs from the cups and lay them onto a couple layers of paper towels in order to drain. You’ll notice a waxy looking coating on the eggs, but no more shell.
Starting at about 2 inches high, drop an egg onto a tabletop or other surface, and watch it bounce. Working in increments of 1 inch, drop the egg from increasing elevations, having your friends do the same if you conducted this experiment with others.
Whoever has the egg that survives a drop from the highest height, wins.
Don’t forget to record your observations as you drop the egg, noting drop heights and how the egg reacts to each drop.
