    Def not a math major (BS/PharmD), but your explanation was like seeing through a visual illusion for the first time! lol

    I was always taught PEMDAS growing up, and that the MD and the AS was read left to right in an equation like above. But stating the division as a fraction completely changes my mind now about how this calculation works. I think what would happen in a calculation I use every day if the former was used.

    Example: Cockcroft-Gault Equation (estimation of renal function)

    (140-age)(kg) / 72(SCr) vs (140-age) X kg ➗72 X SCr

    In the first eq (correct one) an 80yo patient who weighs 65kg and has an SCr ~ 1.5 = 36.11

    In the latter it = 81.25 (waaay too high for an 80yo lol)

    edit: calculation variable



  • So unless you live in an area with fiber, asymmetrical speeds are pretty typical… I’m not sure if it is because it’s all coax so there are infrastructure limitations? But it’s actually gotten faster because 6 months ago my upload was only 30 mbit/s.

    Once fiber is in my area I’ll switch to that, but symmetrical will add more cost…but of course it will lol



  • O-State 3rd qtr:

    O:

    • first drive started off great, injury time out seemed to snuff out the momentum
    • switched to gunnar, not sure if we needed to do that at this point in the game. I like gunnar but we need some consistency

    SP:

    • the FG coverage has been phenomenal. One block in the 2nd qtr and maybe another in the 3rd? looked close. After commercial, kick looked just rushed.
    • Once again punting is damn good, pinned @ the 5 yard line.

    D:

    • UCA’s first drive … We can’t tackle at ALL!
    • Couple Tips this game at the line has been nice
    • 2 sacks in UCA first drive
    • UCA 2nd drive … chunk play after chunk play… We sucked ass this drive… embarassing.

    Over all our D sucked this qtr, and the O cant get any sustained momentum going. Not looking good for the 4th


  • O-State 2nd qtr:

    O:

    • 3 and outs need to stop. First drive of the qtr was a huge bust with Rengel.
    • Alan BOWMAN!!! LETS FING GOOO! Not the best first drive, but some nice 1st down passes when we needed them. I smell potential.
    • AB’s second drive… Great passes, but THE DAMN DROPS!!! WTF!!!
    • AB drive after fumble was meh at best… almost picked twice

    SP:

    • Robinson kid CAN KICK! holy crap, especially for someone who has never kicked prior to this year?
    • Punt and Kick coverage seems to be on point again this year which is good.
    • Hitting FGs is good atleast

    D:

    • played much better this qtr, still need some gelling this year
    • TFL and Sack on UCA 2nd drive was very nice
    • TFL and Sack on UCA 3rd drive, but let a huge pass through
    • FORCED FUMBLE!!! LFG!!! and… it wasn’t payed off by offense, damn

    Overall taking the lead into the half is good! Against an FCS team though? Im still worried about this season as a whole. We need waay more offensive success.

    UCA starts the second half with the ball

    According to the CDC:

    more than 93.1% of abortions were performed at ≤13 weeks’ gestation; a smaller number of abortions (5.8%) were performed at 14–20 weeks’ gestation, and even fewer (0.9%) were performed at ≥21 weeks’ gestation.

    1. So, 93.1% aren’t even fetuses yet, they are zygotes (which is a clump of cells)

    2. the other 6.9% are fetuses not babies.

    • A baby is a non-clinical term for an “infant” (def: a very young child under the age of 1 years old) that has bodily autonomy separate from the mother.

    So, to recap, abortion is not killing a baby










  • So, hypothetically, if the B10 doesn’t expand right now, and the B12 take all the 4 corners… What does Oregon, Washington, Cal, and Stanford do? Do they just go independent until another spot opens up?

    The problem I see is the B10 already has 14 teams (starting in 24), so theyre only going to take at most 2 more teams, and one of those is left open for Notre Dame.

    Stanford (and maybe Cal, but Cal is a Looooong shot) could possibly join the Ivy League.

    OrSt and WaSt probably go to the Mt West.

    That leaves Oregon and Washington - one goes to the Big 10 and the other does what?

    This is on the assumption that a league max should be 16 teams… anything larger doesn’t make sense to me, but someone big will still be left out… Cal is possibly a last man standing as well, which is crazy with it being in the top 10 nationally in “overall” national championships (football though is dubious with 20-25 and 36) but still its no mountain west team.

    Also, going back to the 4 corners, I read today that the B12 could possibly snub Utah because BYU already has the Utah market cornered, and for that matter one of the AZ school could be left out for the same reason (most likely ASU)… So, what if it was CU, AZ, UO, and UW? That would make an INSANE B12, I don’t think that is what will happen, but if just talking about market saturation and getting bang for buck, it would be the smart thing to go for.
