C-

 

 

put the egg on a magnet

 

Put a superconductive pad at the landing zone

 

Cool the room to -200 degrees celsius

 

The egg should levitate over the pad.

 

You're welcome.

 

You better hope that room is a closed system.  Entropy is a bitch.

Lol...that is not a bad idea. She is only 10 and in the fifth grade though so I am not sure I want "lawyer up" so to speak if she gets disqualified.  :)

 

I'm not even sure she gets graded on this. Supposedly she wins a prize if it doesn't break. With school budgets nowadays, it's probably a coupon for a free small Frosty on her next visit to a participating Wendy's restaurant. 

 

 

Make that a medium and I might be willing to convince the teacher that it would be in her best interests if your Daughter won.....

True story about this from when I was a kid.  We did this in our G&T class in 3rd grade.  My friend and I made a stabilized system with the rubber bands, padding, parachute, the whole thing.  Threw it out, barely bounced.  As we were getting the egg out, my friend drop the half opened container, breaking the egg.  Teacher didn't see it until after he broke it, gave us a no go.  Another friend of mine totally forgot to bring his rig to school, but only had a tin of those danish cookies for some reason.  He emptied it, stuffed it with tissue paper, and threw that like a frisbee off of the roof.  Landed like a grenade, rolled forever....and when he opened it the damn egg was still intact.  He got an A, we got a C.  

 

 

First and last C.  And I still have it under protest until this day.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      lol well that kinda ended up working out in the end, even though I still don't have my jersey yet. Was supposed to ship by tomorrow this time, but just got another email saying it was delayed another 3 weeks and because it's been delayed so long, I had to tell them to keep the order or cancel it, but gave me a 25% off my next order as an apology. Well, my original fear came true and they are now selling the FUSE version (but still not the Blue unfortunately) before the one I ordered was ever shipped. But that's awesome, because I was able to use that coupon to order the FUSE instead and then cancelled the original order.  So I got the jersey I wanted for only $6.30 more than the crappier version costs, and it also says it will be shipped immediately and get here early next week, or 2 weeks before the other was now supposed to be shipped out.

      I've watched this and think we are well underway.  Believe it or not, Bryce is a big part of this.  The way he bounced back with such grace.  And we've got a lot of young players who want to make their mark, Dave is giving them an opportunity.  I loved our draft.  I like the number of guys we brought in, and they will help build the culture we want under Dave.  We're getting closer, and I think we'll see more wins this year than most of the board. The right culture breeds winning, and winning builds the right culture.  Imho, it's coming.

      As others have said it's both. One creates the other. But it also takes time sometimes years. And there have been teams lately with new car smell coaching staffs that looked like they were putting it together quickly but things came crashing back down to Earth. Sustainability is the key. For that to happen the meddling of our owners has to stop and they cannot be tempted to return to their ways over any bump in the road either.
