The firefighters did come up with a clever solution, though. But soon he was experiencing agonising chest pain and the doctor developed an asthma attack brought on by the dust. Each time he exhaled, the volume of his chest reduced, causing grain to rush to fill the gap and making it progressively harder for him to breathe.Ī doctor was lowered down on a rope to give him oxygen and a harness was placed around the man’s chest. By the time the firefighters were able to establish which of eight tanks he was in, the grain was up to his armpits and acting according to the classic idea of quicksand, was dragging him down. In 2002 a case report was published telling the tale of a man who fell into a grain store late one evening on a farm in Germany. It is true that struggling can make you sink in further, but would you actually sink far enough to drown? The friction between the sand particles is much-reduced, meaning it can’t support your weight anymore and at first you do sink. But then the water and sand separate, leaving a layer of densely packed wet sand which can trap it. The ground looks solid, but when you step on it the sand begins to liquefy. ![]() Quicksand usually consists of sand or clay and salt that’s become waterlogged, often in river deltas. Yet the evidence that the more you struggle, the further you sink until you drown, is rather lacking. They were in everything from Lawrence of Arabia to The Monkees. In the 1960s, one in 35 films featured quicksands. There are so many films featuring death by quicksand that Slate journalist Daniel Engbar has even tracked the peak quicksand years in film. All that’s left is sinister sand, and maybe his hat. A man is caught in quicksand, begging onlookers for help, but the more he struggles, the further down into the sand he is sucked until eventually he disappears. ![]()

Many think that the Synoptic Gospels are centered on Peter’s account of Jesus’ teaching and ministry. Morris suggested another reason the Synoptic Gospels did not include the account of the raising of Lazarus is that Peter was not present in these months he was in Galilee while Jesus was in Perea and Bethany. He thinks that the other three evangelists wrote their histories during the life of Lazarus and that they did not mention him for fear of exciting the malice of the Jews against him.” (Clarke) The conjecture of Grotius has a good deal of weight. ![]() “It is surprising that the other evangelists have omitted so remarkable an account as this is, in which some of the finest traits in our Lord’s character are exhibited. “There is no parallel whatever for the raising of a man who had been dead for four days and whose body had begun to putrefy.” (Barclay) One might say that it is foolish to think one miracle is more difficult than another, but this seventh sign of John’s gospel is unique. Now a certain man was sick: This begins perhaps the most remarkable miracle Jesus performed. Therefore the sisters sent to Him, saying, “Lord, behold, he whom You love is sick.”Ī.

Unlike the movie, they are not chased around by whizzing bullets but rather, the establishment is called upon to divide and conquer by seeding hate into opposing groups of people, filter and distort information to fit the needs of the establishment, and to silence those who voice alternative views not supported by the underlying narrative. Renegades and outliers, like those taking the red pill, are, of course, not welcome and pose a threat to the establishment, as well as those of the wealthy and the influential who wield the strings. The men in black suits represents the establishment and it is their mission to drum the general narrative into the blue pilled. Those controlling the Matrix are, of course, the wealthy and powerful, which represents a very small percentage in terms of population in our society. The blue-pilled are, essentially, middle-of-the-road and mainstream. The blue-pilled amongst us do not take kindly to those on the fringe or ascribe to ideas and philosophies which sit outside the Overton Window, a philosophical construct positing that anything that sits on either side of it should not be accepted by consensus. Those who take the blue pill are content and happy in their everyday lives and take what they read and hear on mainstream news as verbatim. Those who take the red pill are those who are inquisitive and feel that it is not enough to rely on what they hear, see or believe. Parallels may be drawn from the movie to our reality. Something like that, but in all, it’s a great movie. Failing to do so, would cause death in his actual body because the brain would interpret this as an actual death and would shut down the body. Knowing that this world is made up and not real, Neo is taught to adapt how to dodge their bullets by seemingly defying the law of physics within this blue-pilled world, much like being in a lucid dream, to believe that it is not real. Not long after does Neo realise that he is not very welcome wandering around behind the scenes and is thereafter chased by unsmiling men in black suits whilst in the Matrix. Those taking the red pill detach themselves from the Matrix and become explorers in the alien world of true reality. ![]() The superior beings, in this case, are strange looking aliens flying around in weird looking machines harvesting row after endless row of human bodies wired up to the great machine known as The Matrix. In essence, those who take the blue pill are prisoners and trapped, unaware that there is a superior intelligence manipulating the puppet strings. There is no access to what lies beyond including any knowledge what controls the world from behind the scenes. The mind of someone taking the blue pill is locked into the world in which it is pre-programmed with. By taking the blue pill, one’s mind cannot distinguish what is real or unreal. For those taking the blue pill, the world as it is experienced is perceived as being real. Not long after taking the red pill, Neo is aware that he has entered a very strange world where the laws of physics can be broken and controlled, at least in his mind. Taking the blue pill wouldn’t leave much of a story, would it? After a little hesitancy, Neo decides to ingest the red pill. He warns him that it is an arduous journey, but all will be revealed. However, taking the red pill will throw Neo into the workings of what goes behind the scenes of the normal life we live in. He explains that taking the blue pill will make him forget this little encounter and return blissfully but ignorantly into the normal world, where life, as we know it, continues its course. Morpheus extends his arms out and offers to Neo, a blue pill and a red pill, asking him which one he would like to take. ![]() A young overly curious computer hacker called Neo, played by Keanu Reeves, finds himself approached by a master hacker called Morpheus, played by Laurence Fishburne. It all started with the sci-fi adventure classic from 1999, The Matrix, one of the most exciting blockbusters in its genre. What does it mean? It all started with The Matrix One might have come across these terms at some point in a conversation or across an article or during a podcast, especially during the last three years of the pandemic and the rise of dangerously imbalanced and tyrannical world leaders with a lust for power. It’s time to talk about blue pills and red pills. Made famous by The Matrix, how does the analogy of the red pill and the blue pill work in today’s society? ![]() ![]() Ask for suggestions from your family for meals they want to eat for the month. That way you don’t spend all of your prep time searching for that fabulous recipe. When you create your planner, spend some time collecting the recipes or write down the page numbers. The purpose of a meal plan is to make the dinner decision time less agonizing and to help you with your grocery shopping. If you don't feel like making Hamburgers, switch them with another night. If you order pizza, move the planned meal to the first week of the next month. Save it on your desktop or print it out and put it on the fridge or the inside of a cupboard. Put your menu plan where you will see it.I am constantly printing or tearing out pages of new recipes, but if I don't put them on my meal plan, I never make them. Add recipes that you want to try to your planner.You can serve Lemon Chicken twice, but the second time, serve it with potatoes instead of rice pilaf. Or Meatballs can be used for Sweet and Sour and then later in the week for Hoagies. ![]() For example, BBQ chicken on Wednesday can become BBQ chicken pizza on Friday. You can vary the sides or the appearance, but left-overs save time and money. I like this method, because then I can incorporate seasonal foods and my menus for July are distinctly different from the ones for December. Then, you can bring it out a year later and have something to work from. Or, at the end of the month or week, file the planner away until the next year. You can make three months worth of planners and then rotate them throughout the year. Your meal plan can be reused from month to month or week to week.The planner gives you a starter list that you can add to or amend to fit your needs. This will give you a start on your list of meals and you can add to it when you find new things. Make a list of everything you like to cook or everything you have eaten in the last month.My wife has graciously provided the following tips meal planning tips, including ideas for how to use the meal and menu planners. Click on the little filter arrow and uncheck the "-" option to temporarily hide the unneeded rows. Go to Data > Filter to add a filter on this column. Here's how: First, select the Qty column, beginning with the label "Qty" and ending with the last line of the list. Printing a Grocery List: When using the "Menu Planner with Grocery List" template, instead of printing all 3+ pages in the List worksheet, if you want to print a grocery list containing only the items you need, use the Filter feature. ![]() Doing so will mess up the formula used to create the dynamic named range which populates the drop-down lists. You can delete and remove rows, sort, and do pretty much whatever you want as long as you don't delete cell A1. I designed the lists to be as easy to edit. Right-click on the Planner tab and select "Move or Copy" and select the "Create a Copy" checkbox. That will let you store multiple weekly or monthly meal plans within the same file.

In the present study, we propose a new computational model for predicting the light outputs of scintillators exposed to various radiations. An approach based on quantities other than LET is therefore necessary to reproduce scintillation light output universally. In that case, LET-based systematics such as Birks’ law cannot predict light yields. In other words, the light yield by particles having the same LET can differ depending on the particle species. Moreover, in the case of low-energy heavy-ion incidence, light output depends not only on LET but also on ion species. Therefore, an experimental data-set large enough to determine the fitting parameters is necessary to predict light yields. The fitting parameters were estimated based on experimental data on scintillation light yield for various incident particles. These formulas assume that light output is described as a function of LET. On the basis of experimental data, Smith proposed a revision to the Birks’ law to reproduce the light yields in a wider LET range. Birks’ law is the most common formalism to estimate the light output of scintillators exposed to protons and ions considering quenching. As a result, the light yield is not linear to the deposited energy in the high-LET regime. The light output of scintillators is basically proportional to the amount of the energy deposited in the scintillator crystal but it is known that the light output is suppressed in case of high-LET(linear energy transfer) radiation such as low-energy protons and heavy ions owing to the quenching effect. The intensity of these electric signals is then used to analyze dose, energy, and particle species. Generally, scintillation light is converted to electrical signals by using devices such as photo-diodes or photo-multipliers. A great variety of scintillator-based detectors have been developed and applied to diverse fields, including radiation safety, medicine, industry, space science, and fundamental physics. For small samples, a more general analysis is necessary, accounting for a Poisson process.Scintillators are indispensable for radiation detection in various fields. Many decay processes that are often treated as exponential, are really only exponential so long as the sample is large and the law of large numbers holds. Most of these fall into the domain of the natural sciences. In the pharmacology setting, some ingested substances might be absorbed into the body by a process reasonably modeled as exponential decay, or might be deliberately formulated to have such a release profile.Įxponential decay occurs in a wide variety of situations. These systems are solved using the Bateman equation. In nuclear science and pharmacokinetics, the agent of interest might be situated in a decay chain, where the accumulation is governed by exponential decay of a source agent, while the agent of interest itself decays by means of an exponential process. Symbolically, this process can be expressed by the following differential equation, where N is the quantity and λ ( lambda) is a positive rate called the exponential decay constant, disintegration constant, rate constant, or transformation constant: d N d t = − λ N. This plot shows decay for decay constant ( λ) of 25, 5, 1, 1/5, and 1/25 for x from 0 to 5.Ī quantity is subject to exponential decay if it decreases at a rate proportional to its current value. ![]() Larger decay constants make the quantity vanish much more rapidly.
