I have to say that putting politically-charged subjects into class lessons that don't require them does annoy me. When one starts sliding such materials into coursework, it smacks of indoctrination.

Looks like there was a bit of a rush to get out the country and avoid call up. There's few flights out now and tickets are like 2 grand if you can get one.

Another one 'fell from a great height' yesterday:

Death.

Putin has declared partial mobilisation; he wants 300 000 more fighting. 300 000, with two weeks training... what can go wrong?

No ambiguity now:

I thought it worked by disrupting the cell walls. As an aside: Adding 10% water also apparently increases the penetration depth before disruption occurs.... 90% is better than 100% in that use.

Yes, the only way is down.

I hear he's ordered a 32ft table to replace the 16ft table...

My guess is 'carried away'.

My feeling is that Russia is going to be floundering very shortly unless they call a national mobilisation. I read some days ago from comments by military analysts that they need at least a million combat-capable personnel to see out their objectives. Every Ukrainian locality they take, they have to leave some behind to hold that fort before moving on to the next, The transfer of people from the east to the south recently has highlighted this issue.

Yeah, of course it was. We can trust the Russians to do a transparent referendum. Wake up. This has been a regular theme in my readings.

Her official name is Elizabeth Regina and she always signed off 'Elizabeth R'. That is 'Elizabeth Queen' translated. 'Her Majesty' is just like 'Mr' or 'Mrs' for us. You need to consider the cost of replacement logistically, materially and socially of moving to a republic setup.

The flow is running all over the aircraft exterior, so it's reversed , the pressure direction is inwards instead of outwards. They will never fly upwards because there's another molecule above that one. The laminar flow will follow the contour of the aerofoil. You need to think of the air as a smooth fluid because the air molecules are reacting in concert and not in isolation.

Why does, it seems, everything have to go to court before a legislature can execute policy in the US? It seems to me the Judges are more powerful than the politicians and it's they, due to their accepted expressed political bias, de facto run the country?

Even Putin is doing her the honours, despite the conflict. I noticed he snubbed Gorbachev's funeral. Strange time. The shutdown schedule is commencing:

That's the effect she has on some people. I'm guessing her funeral is going to be like no other. 'Flowery' is going to be a major thing for the near future here. I shall miss seeing her hats!

If you start at the front where the air splits into two halves, the top flow close to the wing surface, whch is humped and lthus onger compared to the straighter bottom surface, must arrive at the same time at the rear of the wing where they join back up. To satisfy that condition the top flow has to travel faster. Bringing in Bernoulli, the faster air at the top puts less pressure on the top half than the bottom half, giving us lift.

I forget the details. Although it has been just a formal ritual, The Royal Assent is like the final consent by the monarch, which they could in principle refuse to give. The armed forces, judiciary technically serve the monarch. Obviously, the monarch has advisers and they inform them if political procedures have been correctly executed according to law. If we had a potential despotic ruling party/leader, they can command the security services to not obey illegal political orders from the errant leadership. Something like that. The monarchy is, in principle, an insurance against catastrophic political instability. I remember reading a comment on loyalty by a naval officer just after the Falklands war saying: "I'm dying for no bloody politician".

In her last public photo she looked just like anybody's grandma, I thought, like, finally she'd done away with her usual deportment and facial control. She was just herself... a smiling old lady. A fitting final image.

Try this:

I don't think so. Electrostatic repulsion keeps things separate at the atomic level that aren't chemically combined. I picture the effect on the respective magnetic fields of two magnets with like polarities facing each other and trying to pushing each other away. There will be distortion in their respective fields where they meet but no crossover or penetration.

Nobody is here to spoonfeed you. The way CharonY has responded to you is perfectly in line with how scientists format their replies.

Why? All he's saying is what his base wants to hear, or thinks they want to hear. He's the kind of person that will sing a different political song as the occasion requires. He strikes me as a cheap-car-salesman type.
