Lange's Handbook was the other essential reference, especially the older versions. I hung onto my 1965 edition because it still had a lot on wet chemical analysis that was dropped in later editions as we got more dependent on instrumentation.
Then the next step is shooting a variety of location backgrounds and you've got custom movies on demand where you select the stars, the location and paste it all into a stock plot - Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn in Fast & Furious 27: Poughkeepsie.
And forklifts. The invention actually consists of two parts to be really successful - the second part being the forklift or pallet jack. Moving pallets by hand sucks.
"I'm Catholic; we do not contracept," Ms. Smith said. "It is a grave sin. By including those pages in the curriculum", she added, "you have violated my religious rights."
Where do people get this idea that presenting facts or even opinions that they don't like constitutes a violation of their rights? How are we to have any kind of informed discussion in this country? Oh, I forgot - they don't want informed discussion.
...could revolutionize..." How many stories have we seen about tech "breakthroughs" in solar energy, chip architecture, batteries, cold fusion or perpetual motion with breathless hype that never pan out? There is some information here but the speculation is uncalled for.
...(I know that's not generally done) two things are apparent: 1) The "discovery" should be credited to the Chinese, not this Polo character, and 2) the supporting evidence is all very shaky, especially the provenence behind the maps.
IE was required at work but after talking with a a helpdesk tech who admitted they mostly used FF or Chrome, I installed FF on my workstation. Then I got an email from network services that I'd better cut it out; they have lots of in-house stuff on intranet sites that requires active-X. Then I retired, so now all is good.
I'm surprised no one mentioned musician - there have always been bards, usually people who preferred to avoid actual work. That would be my contribution.
Photons can be converted directly to electrons (and positrons) in the process known as pair production, providing the photons are of sufficiently high energy. That is not, of course, what happens in the photoelectric effect, but I had understood the intent of statement in the summary to mean that light energy was being converted to electrical current, even though it was not phrased correctly at the most literal level..

Speaking from inside: Yes it is; no they don't. Look at our last election cycle.
Shoot, I know somebody who still has an AOL email address!

Probably not possible from the back seat with handcuffs?
Looks like Pong, my first video game, but no paddle to whack either object.
No Linux desktop client.
Welders need to be on-site or nearby to repair equipment; skilled, talented welders get to fabricate new stuff - more interesting and remunerative.
Nebraska - now that's flat!
But where would you get that much maple syrup?!
Maybe it's actually a wet spot - left on the sheets from the creation of the universe.
"Your heart is true, you're a friend and a confidant." FTFY Not sure but I don't think any of the elderly ladies was a cosmonaut.
Agreed, and that was fairly obvious if you spin checked US media by listening to some from other countries.

Then all you need is an extra large 3D printer and you've got your own aircraft carrier.
Great - a whole new continent to drill for oil and gas! Environmental problems are always trumped by economics if there's money to be made.

So I think that weight I put on over last winter is dark fat - I don't where it came from.

Better driven by sex than by war. Most big tech innovations have come out of "defense" R&D.

Really. It's called the photoelectric effect - some guy named Einstein wrote a paper about it about 100 years ago.
