Don’t worry. Won’t happen as it requires Mr T backing them up, which he made clear that he won’t. Also , don’t believe everything you hear in the media, Zaera knows what is really happening both in and outside EVE, she knows all.

As an American that did not vote for that convicted felon. I have been anxious and extremely worried, As I am not a christian nor conservative, I know that this… person… is going to do a lot more damage both to my country and on the world stage.

I am glad that the rest of the world has stepped up to fill the large void that this… person… has created with his imbecilic and insane actions. There is not much anyone can do to help the USA. We are going to have to work this out for ourselves. At the same time I am very happy that Ukraine is going to get the help it needs to fight off and defeat Russia’s war of aggression. Slava Ukraini

Wow, must be a smart guy to do so well under those conditions. I’m not a great test taker. I remember one of my middle school math teachers got mad at me after going over our class scantrons for a district test and I was the only one that answered E on a question. Since, it was ABCD I got lunch detention.

Never a big fan of math, but I wish I did better so I could have tried fun science stuff when I was younger. Calculus seems like it’s that juxtaposition where its the last level you can learn that you can easily apply to your everyday life.

Sometimes E is the right answer.

Got a fail for coursework handed in during my 4th year at university for using a 3rd year method.

The professor told me that my method isn’t 100% foolproof, so proved to him that neither was his, so he gave me an A.

Time to go to sleep… night night lovelies!

Also: and sometimes, it just takes a moment for beauty.

A “siren suit” was a kind of one-piece suit, made of soft fabric and fit loose, intended to be easy to put on in a hurry. Wisnton Churchill made them popular during WW2 and people would try and own one so they could dress up quick and run for a bomb refuge when air raid sirens sounded. Women appreciated them specially, since they were easy to put on (unlike feminine fashion of the time) as they could dress up quickly and preserve their modesty; siren suits could be worn if needed over anyrhing else like pajamas or nightgowns.

PS: obviously a leather siren suit would have defeated the purpose of “easy to grab and put on to flee the house”, but by 1966 they were just fashion garments.

Time to go to sleep… tomorrow i’ll have surgery to fix the cataracts in my left eye (the right eye should follow later), I don’t have any old eyeglasses fit to what might be my eyesight after surgery so it’s uncertain how active I will be able to be until I get new glasses, at least for the left eye. Night night lovelies!

Also: sometimes it’s a matter of legs…

Photograph: Audrey Hepburn resting after a ballet class in NYC, 1952

I was quite impressed when seeing this picture, used to thinking of Audrey Hepburn as a small woman, but she was 170 cm tall and those legs are a good part of being tall, specially for the time. Also, you might notice a dark spot on her upper thigh; that’s a black-and-blue, a consequence of her malnourishment as a teen during WW2. For all her life Audrey Hepburn was prone to black-and-blues and sometimes they would just appear on their own because of the capillaries being damaged.

I did well because I didn’t care and had more fun playing with the pencils and paper.

Time stamp 12:45

I did well in EVE simply because I did not panic. It’s not how smart I may or may not be. It’s not about how smart you are as to how relaxed you are, how well you fit into the game. I did well because I didn’t care in that test. I do care about how I play EVE. You win by being active. By learning the minutia of the game. I have not so much outwitted smarter player than I, as to being more active than they to keep my ships alive.

Edit; BTW, my bio is timestamp 8:40.

It seems that my last super hero showcase post caused quite a whirlwind of controversy. I am deeply sorry that the fictitious story of the fictitious character The Silhouette offended the sensibilities of some forum members and I deeply apologize to the community and the offended parties.
In an effort to impart dignity for the super heroes showcase and buy back the trust of the community for my posts, I shall from now on showcase super heroes who, I hope, will not cause such needless stir.

Havoc
Alpha-Level Mutant, Ambient Energy Conversion, Energy Absorption, Energy Self-Sustenance, Radiation and Heat Immunity, Plasma Emanation, Flight.

Born in Honolulu, Alexander “Alex” Summers is the second son to his parents Christopher Summers, a United States Air Force Major and test pilot, and Katherine Anne. He spent his childhood growing up alongside his older brother Scott. When Alex was young, he and his family flew back from a vacation in his father’s vintage airplane when a scout ship from the intergalactic Shi’ar Empire set the wooden plane ablaze. Their mother pushed Scott and Alex out of the burning plane with the only available parachute, enabling the children to escape while she and Christopher were captured by the Shi’ar. Since their overburdened parachute could not slow their descent safely enough, the two boys sustained injuries and were hospitalized. Scott and Alex both suffered traumatic amnesia regarding the incident. After two weeks, Alex was sent to an orphanage in Omaha, Nebraska that was secretly run by geneticist Nathaniel Essex, AKA Mister Sinister, where he was quickly adopted.
Sinister monitored Alex while he lived with his foster family and, noticing Alex’s latent mutant powers begin to emerge, he incited the local school bully to attack Alex. When the bully threatened to blow up Alex’s family’s house, the stress caused his mutant powers to manifest and he incinerated the bully with a plasma blast. Sinister then intervened, placing a genetic lock upon Alex to curtail his powers’ development, and imposed psi-blocks that removed Alex’s memories of these events. As a result, Alex did not become aware of his mutant abilities until after graduating from college and joining Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters.

Alex Summers, AKA Havoc, was many things. Mutant. Survivor. Space pirate. Freedom fighter. X-Man. Able to release plasma energy from his body in a powerful force. His ability to wreak havoc earned him his mutan name.
Havoc was a member of The X-Men, Underground X-Men, X-Factor, The Brotherhood, Mutant X, M-Day, Starjammers, X-Factor Investigations, AXIS, Hellions and the Uncanny Avengers.
