David Lynch Loves Quinoa
05/14/11, 01:58
I make a quinoa salad dish regularly (roast corn, feta, red pepper, onion etc.). It is universally accepted by guests as delicious.
One thing that I am in the middle of testing:
SOAK AND RINSE BEFORE COOKING!
Not all packages say so, and processing removes a lot of saponin, but I suspect that quinoa has often been upsetting my stomach (the salad is so good I usually eat a ton of it) due to the fact that some residual saponin is not being washed off.
I will post here next time to confirm the results of the experiment. |

I find it profound that somewhere I have devoted brain cells devoted to the memory of these.
Nice to see that the Predacons could find more work... |

I always find his voice so easy to listen to when I radio surf in my car. I only wish he was hosting something like "Prairie Home Companion", I'd listen to him all the time then. |

What are you guys talking about?
It is simple to create function that introduces creases into a volume; that's the problem, it is simple. If we don't care abou the constraint, the solution to "everting" the sphere would just be to pull it through itself and no one would care.
When we do introduce the "no creases" constraint, most of us end up being very surprised that it is possible (as this video shows it is); and that's why this is interesting.
Why does anyone care? It is interesting in the same way other neat little mathematical facts are interesting e.g. there are more irrational numbers than there are natural numbers. |

The "no creases" (or corners) constraint is there because the result isn't counter intuitive without it.
The constraint has to do with "immersions", that is a maps between spaces that are bi continuous and whose derivatives are injective (don't map two points to the same corner/crease). |

It feels like she starts her 10 pounds reps, and then right in the middle, realizes that she didn't finish "rapping" at you. |

The world is an evil evil place. A Harvard trained with a reasonable critical thinking ability can become famous and influential, and still not give a basic honest perspective to his viewers. |

Also worth noting:
A friend of mine saw Tran once, he said he looked like the actor that played the T1000 in T2. |

I remember this as (the?) first game utilizing Tran's PMODE, I had to make a special boot disk for it to work.
I could keep watching the intro and the music again and again. It somehow looks worse now, but when I used to play it somehow Renaissance convinced me that if "felt" like 32-bits. That and the idea of demoscene + anime just used to get me all hot and bothered.

Making High-Fructose Corn Syrup at Home from 'King Corn'

fatatty:
The latest consensus (AFAIK) is that we can observe short term divergences in satiety in rats which ingest significant amounts of fructose vs. sucrose. We don't know if this applies to humans, and we have no idea what this means long term for humans or rats. |
