Never Cook Bacon While Naked: Lucius Martialis
http://scooterrant.blogspot.com/2014/10/lucius-martialis.html
Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. President Dwight D. Eisenhower. Friday, October 31, 2014. All in all, Lucius did not have a lot of joy in his life. He is good at his job that he never wanted to do. He ...Of co...

I Am With Stupid: Equation of lines tangent to circle
http://jpfoss.blogspot.com/2009/11/equation-of-line-tangent-to-circle.html
I Am With Stupid. Equation of lines tangent to circle. Happen to work up my own solution to this the other day, so I'm posting it here. This was intended to plug into a spreadsheet. It's probably less elegant than possible and less complete than needed, but, oh well. It's assumed that all points are co-planar, so nothing fancy going on here. Refer to the illustration above. Clicking it should return a larger (readable) version. 8226; a circle. X - h)² (y - k)² = r²,. 8226; a point. At (p, q), and. If you...

I Am With Stupid: Number Sets
http://jpfoss.blogspot.com/2012/04/number-sets.html
I Am With Stupid. Couldn't find a complete and accurate Venn diagram of the sets of numbers, so here you go. A couple of things to note:. 8226; Natural numbers may be Whole numbers or Counting numbers. It depends on the application. The only difference is that Whole numbers includes zero while Counting numbers do not. It is not that either is a subset of Natural numbers — it's just either one or the other. 8226; So all numbers are Complex? It turns out to be arguably so. For a pure Imaginary number,.
