@@BrendanSteele Man, first of all, that virus will take advantage by the fact when exposed to cold, our immune system is weaker. But, it's not the only one. Many affections that we think are just another viral, seasonal infection, are actually bacterial infections. And bacteria that are basically omnipresent in and outside of our bodies also takes advantage of that same fact.

Pepperidge Farms in particular gives their products a very short shelf life so consumers always get a fresher product than all their competitors. 3 months for most cookies and crackers and 3 or 4 days for bread..

Mt. Everest IS the highest mountain, but it’s not the tallest. Those words aren’t interchangeable.

[@FastEddy1959]

Actually, it depends on how you define “highest”. Everest’s peak is farthest above “sea level” but, since the Earth is not a perfect sphere there is a number of other peaks that are farther from the center of the Earth.

[@Scootermagoo]

Actually technically everest is the third highest, Everest is the highest from sea level, hawaii is the highest physically from the base and chimborazu in equador is the highest from the center of the earth. So being third best is pretty good given the company.

[@NBGUYVER]

Makes sense. The highest refers to elevation on earth. Tallest refers to height from base to tip

Doesn't everest eventually reach the sea floor too. So are we measuring what we see or from the sea floor. They all eventually reach the deepest place on earth.

[@Scootermagoo]

@@childresshouse read what I said, everest is the highest above sea level, mauno loa is the highest from base and chimborazu is the highest from the center of the earth because of planetary bulge due to the 1000mph rotational speed of the planet at the equator.

Mana Kea isn't off the coast of Hawaii, it is part of the Island of Hawaii. Kilauea, Hualalai, Kohala, Mauna Loa, and Mauna Kea are the volcanic mountains that make up the Big Island of Hawaii. Hawaii refers to a Kingdom, a state, and archipelago, all made of several Islands (more than 100), it is also an individual island, and a county. Off the southeast coast of Hawaii Island is Kamaʻehuakanaloa Seamount (formally Loihi) which is still submersed below the waves by 975 m.

Which is too bad, because he completely botched the Mt. Everest entry. Mt. Everest is still the highest point on the surface of the earth. No one has ever claimed it's the tallest mountain from base to peak. It's not really even that tall from those metrics. Denali and Kilimanjaro are both much taller from base to peak. So if we're going to be technical about anything, it should be that there are two methods of defining mountain height, and Everest is only tallest according to the most commonly used one.

Baseball is derived from an English game common in the late 1700's among milkmaids, called Rounders.

If you are ever thirsty enough to drink the Municipality water here, you will find that the last true/false is tragically wrong.

[@bloodymarvelous4790]

Hard water refers to the calcium and magnesium content of the water. High concentrations of calcium and magnesium can cause deposits on the places where those elements come in contact with air, like a showerhead or in the sink. They don't harm the body. In fact calcium and magnesium ions are beneficial to your skeletal structure, as carbonate, phosphate, nitrate, and iodine ions are necessary for the correct functioning of your body. As with anything, overconsumption can lead to health problems. Consuming too much salt can lead to kidney problems, and overconsumption of other elements can lead to abnormal cellular growth, also known as tumors. Other materials in the water, like heavy metals due to pollution or corroded lead piping, are harmful to your body. Tap water should not contain those. If your tap water is contaminated, you should not drink it under any circumstances, including after home filtration. Boiling contaminated water will only kill organisms, it will not remove harmful toxins. In fact, it will increase the concentration of toxins and heavy metals as you're evaporating water. Distilled water is devoid of minerals (salts), and is harmful to your body when consumed in larger quantities. Distilled water will be absorbed into your cells much faster than mineral water, and can lead to organ failure. Your cells contain minerals, and water passes through the cell walls via a process called osmosis. This will try to balance the salinity of the liquid inside and outside the cells, and can cause cell walls to rupture, killing the cells.

Rice actually is a factor is removing liquid from cell phone, iPads and the like, but not as most think. You cannot use long or short grain rice, as they do put off far too much dust and will damage the circuitry. Instead make you use ‘Sticky’, Asian Rice, I have great success with Korean Rice. Then put it in a food sealer, I use a FoodSaver®️. Step 1: I make a bag. Step2: Fill it about 2/3 of way with the ‘Sticky’ Rice. Step 3: Lay the bag of ‘Sticky’ Rice on its side. Step 4: Insert the iPhone (my model, though friends have used various other models) in to the bag, in the rice with the ports facing the opening of the bag. Step 5: Insert the bag into the FoodSaver®️. Step 6: Start the cycle and let it run. Step 7: Set the bag aside for 6-8 hours. Occasionally, the process must be repeated. The success rate has been 100% for me and all those whom I know that have used this method.

I suppose you could do the same with rice contained in paper.

[@bloodymarvelous4790]

As long as you don't disturb the rice, salt or sugar, there is no risk of dust getting into your phone. All of those are excellent desiccants, just don't throw it on the rice, or bury it in the rice, or shake the bag before or while the phone is in there. Also, most phones nowadays are water-resistant. You can drop it in water and it'll work fine as long as you don't depress any buttons while the phone is underwater. The same goes for watches. All buttons and crowns are sealed with gaskets. As long as those gaskets remain sealed, your watch will be fine. However, if you press a button on a water-resistant watch or pull the crown while submerged, you've broken the seal and it will flood, no matter how shallow you are or how water-resistant the watch may be.

The closest we have gotten to the early church is when Pentecostalism first started after the Azusa Street Revivals (1906-1915). The churches were independent house meetings which stressed fellowship, Bible study, and worship over ritual and routine, exactly what the early church did. Unfortunately, those churches were the forebears of the evangelical megachurches that are ruining Christianity now.

The "cellphone in rice" actually does work. At least it did for me. Back in July of 2013, I was in my bass boat out on the lake one day and accidentally left the rear live well aeration pump on and it overflowed into the "glovebox" between the two seats. Which is where I kept my iPhone 4 that day. When I went to check the time and for missed calls/texts, I realized my phone was under about 5" of water. I quickly removed it, and quickly wrapped it tightly in a towel. I did not push any buttons or the screen bcuz I knew that any touch "command would cause an electrical charge to flow and probably result in shorting out the board and frying the circuitry. I got back to my apartment about 2 hrs later (4;30p), stuffed it down deep into a half-full box of rice, and left it there until I got up the next morning around 7a to go to work. Before I left, I put it on the charger until I got home later on that day. When I got home, I tried to turn it on and low and behold it powered up. The only lasting sign it had been submersed was the camera was looked a little bit cloudy but overall it was fine. The cloudiness went away 3 days later. The reason I was so desperate to save the phone was because it was my g/f's that she gave to me because I wanted another iPhone after my 3GS was stolen, and she wanted to upgrade to a Samsung Galaxy S3. She passed away two weeks prior to this incident and my phone had a lot of pictures of me and her together. So, to me, I felt since I couldn't save her, I HAD to save that phone. Man, grief makes you rationalize things in some strange, inexplicable ways sometimes.
