But then along came the automobile, with its newfangled “internal-combustion engine,” and the whole game changed. Now, there were sheet-metal shrouds covering the engines – and that was a good thing; cars had about 3hp, and nobody really cared to see how it was made. But then along came evolution – as it always does – and we started to figure out that these things called “cars” could actually go really fast. What started out as a purpose-driven adaptation for survival began to evolve into something that started to catch people’s attention (in a good way). A couple “monkey-do, monkey-sees” later, this concept of “performance” was really starting to catch on.

Biographers note that about the time Sharp and Hughes were developing their bit, Hughes had a chance meeting in Louisiana with another inventor trying to improve drilling technology.

Adjusted net earnings from continuing operations amounted to $75 million for 2018, an increase of $7 million over 2017, mainly due to the higher revenue which was offset an $80 million increase in depreciation and depletion, a $56 million increase in current income taxes expense and higher finance costs.

He radios diver Tony Sampson who is out on one of the boats and tells him there’s, “a weird anomaly in the water.”

In a review of 13 acceptability studies of heterosexual men in sub-Saharan Africa, concern about possible pain was "the major barrier" to agreeing to be circumcised [101]. As well as pain, the long healing period, meaning no sex, and MC not being part of the local culture, were other impediments to getting a circumcision [109, 111]. In Pune, India 71% of men expressed this concern [110]. Amongst MSM, fear of pain was a barrier for 62% of men in the USA [95] and was 47% for Chinese men [96]. An acceptability study among African-American parents found that despite high (88%) perception of pain in their child, 73% strongly believed that MC was necessary [107].

United Utilities has written to residents to explain that it is going to change the blend of water – using more from boreholes in Egremont and less from Ennerdale.

The mode of pumping should also be reviewed to ensure that the borehole is delivering the required volumes of water in the most efficient and cost-effective manner.

Topps has been the standard for many years. Great for young and old, beginners or people that have been collecting for years. This set however is a bit much. Pros: Design – I think this a solid design and I happy Topps hasn’t just copied the design for each sport like they used to. Past & Present Perfomers – Best insert I’ve seen from Topps in a while (copied from Passing the Torch though) Photography – Solid photography throughout(I’m a Giants fan so the Beckham card had me)

It might be called “Sex Bomb,” but there’s nothing particularly sexy about it. San Francisco’s Flipper made music that sounded like the opposite of what most would consider sexy. And for that matter, it didn’t even sound like what most of us would associate with punk — where loud and fast once ruled, Flipper played slow and sludgy. Black Flag would do likewise in just a couple years, but in 1982 there was little that sounded like Flipper, and even less that sounded like “Sex Bomb,” a drunken mess of a punk song that took the template of early garage rock from the ’60s and stretched it out over seven minutes, simplified the lyrics (“She’s my sex bomb baby! Yeah!” are the only words in the song) and blasted lots of gnarly sax all over it. It feels nihilistic — the same thing over and over again, gradually becoming messier and messier, with no narrative or point to speak of. And yet, what looks on paper like the most annoying song on the planet ends up sounding infectious beyond the sum of its parts. That’s probably because, for all of its idiosyncrasies and obnoxiousness, “Sex Bomb” simply sounds like the band is having way too much fun.
