  1. Complex numbers

    math is my nemesis although I probably could be able to figure it out better had I not experienced struggle from fourth grade on--- although I was happy to discover I enjoyed the foil method of algebra. I am questioning the method or reason for your color choices on the graphing why not other colors? tertiary or brown gray black silver so it seems like a trap-box I have to understand your formula and I do not want to--

  3. The Cool Picture Thread

    well I went this morning and cut mine down with chain saw it was super early about 4:30 hope I did not wake them up
  4. What energies are there?

    scholarly learning still has certain deficits basically the book everything I need to know I learned in kindergarten encompasses pragmatic wisdom and I still struggle with the basics. like I want to scream out who gives a flying fuck about not chewing gum in the class? what kind of rule is that? I am in the middle of an argument. not a crisis oh yeah the conduct.... pain and injury are in the eye of the beholder.
  5. What energies are there?

    scholarly learning is deficient>? I would have to question that. I could easily begin typing and stir the pot. but I will suffice to say that if you sat around chit chat with folks over in Geneva Switzerland and topic is CERN particle... maybe you will fall short of conversation. not that I intuitively feel that any one particular person can't hold a conversation such as these that take place at the dao bums/forum and when I mean YOU" I mean you understood. no one scrutinizes some of the writings here ENOUGH. where is Top Dog today?
  6. Is there unnecessary suffering?

    I work in/near/around asbestos. I merely state a fact that a rainbow can appear over a toxic dump. I have plenty of perspective and it may differ from YOURS. I do not think it would be ok to dump toxic waste anywhere especially unprotected in childrens play yards. Never searching for a rainbow anyway. they show up before during or after rainshowers and a little sun. That is what a rainbow is to me. and when a rainbow is present it can be anywhere. want a rant with me? then lets have it. as far as socialism......I think it is fair enough that people can earn as little or as much as they want. If I disagree with how much professional athletes earn then I simply don't participate in the hoopla The piano was nice. I enjoyed the laughter of the kids repeating English after their teacher. the matter of perspective was the pendulum swing of extreme poverty to extreme wealth.
  7. Is there unnecessary suffering?

    not picking on professional athlete but providing some financial statistic read from Instagram tonight on Lebron James's contract: 4 seasons $154,000,000. 1 season $38,500,000. 1 game $469,512. 1 quarter $ 117,378. 1 minute $9,781. 1 second $163.00 the swing of the pendulum image the delight in the faces of these impoverished children if you handed them not only a rainbow but a fresh organic orange. but then again there must be rainbows in asbestos dumps :-) we may never pass this way again what am I really trying to say its a matter of perspective across the board

  14. Watching The Birds

    well the images is now missing and the tail feathers would be a very easy way to identify....it was also out of focus and why is this important today? part of the psychological drama? almost ready to rant but I realize my feeders are empty and I am busy tending bird sanctuary.

  18. Distribution of I.Q

    the conversation has been moved into the rabbit hole.... I tell you the conversation is going to end where I am concerned. after I post some REM eponymous---buy the sky and sell the sky---- I enjoy the red lyrics across the quarry swallowing rapture----holy shit time for fresh air
  19. Distribution of I.Q

    I don't think I meant literally you go find the document for me..... I mean like where is the document it was not a demand to hey you go find the document.

  21. Distribution of I.Q

    if my life is meant to understand complicate models or multidimensional theory(key word theory)..... then maybe it will one day lend itself to do so. I do not strive for it. I do want to be smarter in some areas but in everyday things-- right now I have to keep the fictional unreal world floating.....I wake up to very little money in the bank account and my son will have to take the act soon and it costs money that I do not have.... as far as the brief 3 minute newscaster.....I would have to investigate further into her findings. I am not sure I believe everything that gets reported as true. maybe it is true and that seems unfair and not reasonable to just getting a correct score of measurement if the tests are being padded or penalized. but I do not think world is fair in general where is the document on the Asian getting penalized 50 points on ACT? what if IQ man 120 sat in a room with 150 IQ people solving problems IQ man 120 wouldn't understand. and your statement about fiction and un real are your observations based on whatever your beliefs/findings. my act score was terrible. I was not prepared for the score results. now maybe I can go back and get mad thinking I had a few unseen penalties because I am an of a certain race. or furthermore, I can go locate some cheaters.... say you perhaps if you proctor a class/act exam can I bring in some extra money and leave it under the desk to help my scoring? all in the name of the over rated word intelligence/and acceptance. all the clear and I alone am clouded and I am getting mighty suspicious of some similar patterns at this forum. the uturn and infinity symbol in the clouds and the bell curve on the beach seems rather phallic to me...... I don't like debating much
