This was probably the funniest spam email I ever received. The subject line read "Cats Skinned Alive in Alabama". There was a link to click in the email, so since I'm running Firefox on Ubuntu, I decided to click it. It was an animation of a move loading with text that read "Click here to play movie." Of course that link downloads an EXE file to your computer and gets you 0wn3d -- if you're running Windows hahaha.

The spammers get credit for a clever way of getting you to download an EXE -- the promise of a movie clip to watch. But they totally missed the boat when crafting their subject line. I can think of 10000 things I'd rather see movies of before I'd watch cats being skinned alive in Alabama. I'm not sure who their target audience is. Would people interested in that even have computers? Try again, spammers. You struck out this time.

By the way, I didn't make it to the Harrisburg Mile in time, so I didn't run it. Next year.

This was probably the funniest spam email I ever received. Ce fut probablement le plus drôle spam e-mail que j'ai jamais reçu. The subject line read "Cats Skinned Alive in Alabama". La ligne d'objet "chats écorchés vifs en Alabama". There was a link to click in the email, so since I'm running firefox on Ubuntu, I decided to click it. Il y avait un lien à cliquer dans l'e-mail, autant que je suis utilisez Firefox sur Ubuntu, j'ai décidé de cliquer dessus. It was an animation of a move loading with text that read "Click here to play movie." Il était une animation de déplacer un chargement avec texte qui suit: "Cliquez ici pour jouer film." Of course that link downloads an EXE file to your computer and you're 0wn3d -- if you're running on Windows hahaha. Bien sûr, ce lien télécharge un fichier EXE à votre ordinateur et que vous êtes 0wn3d - si vous êtes sous Windows hahaha.

The spammers get credit for a clever way of getting you to download an EXE -- the promise of a movie clip to watch. Les "spammers" obtenir des crédits pour un habile moyen de faire vous pouvez télécharger un EXE - la promesse d'un clip vidéo à regarder. But they totally missed the boat when crafting their subject line. Mais ils totalement manqué le bateau lors de l'élaboration de leur ligne d'objet. I can think of 10000 things I'd rather see movies of before I'd watch cats being skinned alive in Alabama. Je ne peux penser de 10000 choses que je préfère voir des films d'avant je regarder les chats sont écorchés vifs dans l'Alabama. I'm not sure who their target audience is. Je ne suis pas sûr qui leur public cible. Would people interested in that even have computers? Voulez-les personnes intéressées en ce sens que même les ordinateurs ont? Try again, spammers. Essayez de nouveau, les spammeurs. You struck out this time. Vous frappé à ce moment-là.

By the way, I didn't make it to the Harrisburg Mile in time, so I didn't run it. D'ailleurs, je n'ai pas fait au point milliaire Harrisburg dans le temps, donc je n'ai pas l'exécuter. Next year. L'année prochaine.

This was probably the funniest spam email I ever received. Esta fue probablemente la más divertida spam de correo electrónico que he recibido. The subject line read "Cats Skinned Alive in Alabama". La línea de asunto que diga "Gatos desollados vivos en Alabama". There was a link to click in the email, so since I'm running firefox on Ubuntu, I decided to click it. Había un enlace al hacer clic en el correo electrónico, por lo que desde Estoy corriendo firefox en Ubuntu, decidí hacer clic en él. It was an animation of a move loading with text that read "Click here to play movie." Se trata de una animación de un movimiento de carga con un texto que diga "Pulse aquí para reproducir la película." Of course that link downloads an EXE file to your computer and you're 0wn3d -- if you're running on Windows hahaha. Por supuesto vínculo que descarga un archivo EXE a su ordenador y ya está 0wn3d - si usted está ejecutando en Windows hahaha.

The spammers get credit for a clever way of getting you to download an EXE -- the promise of a movie clip to watch. Los spammers obtener crédito de una forma inteligente de obtener la descarga de un archivo EXE - la promesa de una imagen en movimiento para ver. But they totally missed the boat when crafting their subject line. Sin embargo, perdió totalmente el barco cuando la elaboración de su línea de asunto. I can think of 10000 things I'd rather see movies of before I'd watch cats being skinned alive in Alabama. Se me ocurre de 10000 cosas que me prefieres ver las películas de antes de que yo había de ver gatos desollado vivo en Alabama. I'm not sure who their target audience is. No estoy seguro de que su público objetivo. Would people interested in that even have computers? ¿Las personas interesadas en que ni siquiera tienen computadoras? Try again, spammers. Inténtalo de nuevo, los spammers. You struck out this time. Usted golpeó esta vez.

By the way, I didn't make it to the Harrisburg Mile in time, so I didn't run it. Por cierto, no ha llegado a la Milla de Harrisburg en el tiempo, así que no ejecutarlo. Next year. El año que viene.

This was probably the funniest spam email I ever received. Dies war wahrscheinlich der lustigste Spam-E-Mail die ich je erhalten haben. The subject line read "Cats Skinned Alive in Alabama". Die Betreff-Zeile lesen "Katzen bei lebendigem Leib gehäutet werden in Alabama". There was a link to click in the email, so since I'm running firefox on Ubuntu, I decided to click it. Es gab einen Link zu klicken Sie in der E-Mail, da bin ich in Firefox auf Ubuntu, entschloss ich mich zu klicken. It was an animation of a move loading with text that read "Click here to play movie." Es war eine Animation eines bewegen Belastung mit Text, lesen Sie "Klicken Sie hier, um Video abspielen." Of course that link downloads an EXE file to your computer and you're 0wn3d -- if you're running on Windows hahaha. Natürlich, dass Link Downloads einer EXE-Datei auf Ihrem Computer und schon sind Sie 0wn3d - Wenn Sie unter Windows hahaha.

The spammers get credit for a clever way of getting you to download an EXE -- the promise of a movie clip to watch. Die Spammer Kredit für ein cleverer Weg, um Sie zum Download einer EXE - das Versprechen eines Videoclips zu beobachten. But they totally missed the boat when crafting their subject line. Aber sie völlig verpasst, wenn das Boot für Bastler ihre Betreff-Zeile. I can think of 10000 things I'd rather see movies of before I'd watch cats being skinned alive in Alabama. Ich kann mir 10000 Dinge, die ich lieber sehen, Filme, bevor ich zusehen Katzen werden bei lebendigem Leib gehäutet werden in Alabama. I'm not sure who their target audience is. Ich bin mir nicht sicher, ihre Zielgruppe ist. Would people interested in that even have computers? Würden die Menschen Interesse daran haben sogar Computer? Try again, spammers. Erneut versuchen, Spammern. You struck out this time. Sie schlug aus dieser Zeit.

By the way, I didn't make it to the Harrisburg Mile in time, so I didn't run it. Übrigens, ich habe es nicht auf die Meile in Harrisburg Zeit, so dass ich nicht laufen soll. Next year. Nächstes Jahr.

I'm running in one of the 13 heats of the Harrisburg Mile tomorrow. The race course is a straight shot down Front Street along the Susquehanna River. I used to run the annual mile race in my town growing up. My best time was 6:11. At first I was determined to get a sub-6 time in this race, but then I remembered I wasn't 17 anymore and set more realistic expectations. I have been working on some sprints and fast miles and hope to get around 6:30 or so. We'll see... The main thing is I want to not start off at full blast, run a good race, and have fun. I'll let the sub-5 minute people do their thing and I'll do mine. Sounds traditional and safe, but, well, it is, and I'm cool with that :-)

Last year we transplanted some wild black raspberries from my dad's house to our yard. I love wild black raspberries and remember eating them during the summers growing up. It's nice to be able to enjoy them again.

Recently we were introduced to a different kind of raspberry, called a wineberry, thanks to our friends Jeremy and Julie. We were thrilled to find that we have wineberries growing in our own yard! Wineberries are native to northern China, Japan, and Korea. *HoLLa* for exotic fruit growing in our yard! I picked one the other day and tried it. Though not as sweet as wild black raspberries, it was still very good and not as seedy as the wild black ones.

I'll have to make sure I don't mow over them. I'm pretty sure I did that in previous years because I thought the berries were inedible or something.

Yay, wineberries! (Okay, I need to get a life.)

Last year we transplanted some wild black raspberries from my dad's house to our yard. L'année dernière, nous avons transplanté des framboises sauvages noir de mon père à la maison de notre cour. I love wild black raspberries and remember eating them during the summers growing up. J'aime les framboises sauvages noir et n'oubliez pas de les manger au cours des étés de plus en plus. It's nice to be able to enjoy them again. Il est agréable de pouvoir en jouir de nouveau.

Recently we were introduced to a different kind of raspberry, called a wineberry , thanks to our friends Jeremy and Julie. Récemment, nous avons mis en place pour un autre type de framboise, appelé wineberry, merci à nos amis Jeremy et Julie. We were thrilled to find that we have wineberries growing in our own yard! Nous avons été ravis de constater que nous avons wineberries de plus en plus dans notre propre cour! I picked one the other day and tried it. J'ai choisi un autre jour et essayé. Though not as sweet as wild black raspberries, it was still very good and not as seedy as the wild black ones. Bien qu'elle ne soit pas aussi doux que les framboises sauvages noir, il était encore très bonne, et non comme seedy que la nature noir.

I'll have to make sure I don't mow over them. Je aurez à faire en sorte de ne pas tondre sur eux. I'm pretty sure I did that in previous years because I thought the berries were inedible or something. Je suis sûr que je n'ai que les années précédentes parce que je pensais que les fruits non comestibles ont été ou quelque chose.

Yay, wineberries! Yay, wineberries! (Okay, I need to get a life.) (Ok, je dois obtenir une vie.)

Last year we transplanted some wild black raspberries from my dad's house to our yard. El año pasado algunos trasplantados frambuesas silvestres negro de mi papá a la casa de nuestro patio. I love wild black raspberries and remember eating them during the summers growing up. Me gusta negro frambuesas silvestres y recordar comer durante los veranos cada vez mayor. It's nice to be able to enjoy them again. Es agradable poder disfrutar de ellos otra vez.

Recently we were introduced to a different kind of raspberry, called a wineberry , thanks to our friends Jeremy and Julie. Recientemente se nos presenta a un tipo diferente de frambuesa, llamado wineberry, gracias a nuestros amigos y Jeremy Julie. We were thrilled to find that we have wineberries growing in our own yard! Estábamos encantados al saber que hemos wineberries creciente en nuestro propio patio! I picked one the other day and tried it. Me recogió una el otro día y probado. Though not as sweet as wild black raspberries, it was still very good and not as seedy as the wild black ones. Aunque no tan dulce como frambuesas silvestres negro, todavía es muy bueno y no como semillas silvestres como el negro.

I'll have to make sure I don't mow over them. Voy a tener que asegurarse de que yo no cortar más de ellos. I'm pretty sure I did that in previous years because I thought the berries were inedible or something. Estoy bastante seguro de que yo lo hice en años anteriores porque pensé las bayas se inedible o algo así.

Yay, wineberries! Yay, wineberries! (Okay, I need to get a life.) (Bueno, tengo que conseguir una vida.)

Last year we transplanted some wild black raspberries from my dad's house to our yard. Im vergangenen Jahr haben wir einige transplantiert wilden Himbeeren schwarz von meinem Vater das Haus auf unserem Hof. I love wild black raspberries and remember eating them during the summers growing up. Ich liebe schwarzen wilden Himbeeren essen und erinnern sie während der Sommer aufwachsen. It's nice to be able to enjoy them again. Es ist schön zu können, genießen Sie sie wieder ein.

Recently we were introduced to a different kind of raspberry, called a wineberry , thanks to our friends Jeremy and Julie. Vor kurzem waren wir eingeführt, um eine andere Art von Himbeere, nennt man wineberry, dank unseren Freunden Jeremy und Julie. We were thrilled to find that we have wineberries growing in our own yard! Wir waren begeistert feststellen, dass wir wineberries wachsenden in unserem eigenen Hof! I picked one the other day and tried it. Ich griff ein neulich und versuchte es. Though not as sweet as wild black raspberries, it was still very good and not as seedy as the wild black ones. Wenn auch nicht so süß wie wild schwarze Himbeeren, war es noch sehr gute und nicht so schäbig wie die wilden schwarz.

I'll have to make sure I don't mow over them. Ich werde haben, um sicherzustellen, dass ich nicht über sie mähen. I'm pretty sure I did that in previous years because I thought the berries were inedible or something. Ich bin ziemlich sicher, ich habe das in früheren Jahren, weil ich dachte, die Beeren wurden ungenießbare oder etwas.

Yay, wineberries! Juhuu, wineberries! (Okay, I need to get a life.) (Okay, ich muss Get a Life.)

This year Amanda and I got season passes for Hershey Park. We live about 5 miles away so it has been our Friday evening ritual to come home from work, grab a bite to eat, and head over to HP to ride some rides until the park closes. We love the new Fahrenheit roller coaster and the Great Bear and Storm Runner are awesome too.

While waiting in an hour-long line for Fahrenheit I thought back to my high school physics class. I remember we learned why roller coaster loops aren't circular, but rather a tear-drop shape called a clothoid. The reason is because circular loops require greater speeds to make it through the whole loop. When you increase the speed going into the loop, the passengers experience greater centripetal acceleration through the lower half of the loop, therefore a greater G-force. If the radius is reduced at the top of the loop, as it is in a clothoid loop, the centripetal acceleration is increased enough to keep the riders and the train from slowing too much as they move through the loop. A large radius is kept through the bottom half of the loop, which reduces the centripetal acceleration and the G-forces acting on the passengers. The bottom line is most people would pass out from too many G-forces acting on them if the loop was circular.

Because we go to Hershey Park in the evenings, the lines are almost non-existent, so I don't spend too much time thinking about physics :)

This year Amanda and I got season passes for Hershey Park. Cette année, Amanda et moi avons eu des laissez-passer pour la saison Hershey Park. We live about 5 miles away so it has been our Friday evening ritual to come home from work, grab a bite to eat, and head over to HP to ride some rides until the park closes. Nous vivons à environ 5 kilomètres, il a été notre rituel vendredi soir de revenir à la maison au travail, prenez un morceau à manger, et la tête à HP à rouler jusqu'à ce que certains manèges du parc ferme. We love the new Fahrenheit roller coaster and the Great Bear and Storm Runner are awesome too. Nous aimons la nouvelle Fahrenheit montagnes russes et la Grande Ourse et Storm Runner sont de taille trop.

While waiting in an hour-long line for Fahrenheit I thought back to my high school physics class. Pendant les attentes dans une durée d'une heure en ligne pour Fahrenheit je pensais à mon lycée physique classe. I remember we learned why roller coaster loops aren't circular, but rather a tear-drop shape called a clothoid. Je me souviens pourquoi nous avons appris montagnes russes les boucles ne sont pas circulaire, mais plutôt une goutte de larme appelé une forme clothoid. The reason is because circular loops require greater speeds to make it through the whole loop. La raison est parce que la circulaire boucles nécessitent une plus grande vitesse pour le rendre à travers l'ensemble de la boucle. When you increase the speed going into the loop, the passengers experience greater centripetal acceleration through the lower half of the loop, therefore a greater G-force. Lorsque vous augmentez la vitesse d'entrer dans la boucle, les passagers une plus grande expérience par le biais de l'accélération centripète la moitié inférieure de la boucle, donc une plus grande g-Force. If the radius is reduced at the top of the loop, as it is in a clothoid loop, the centripetal acceleration is increased enough to keep the riders and the train from slowing too much as they move through the loop. Si le rayon est réduit au début de la boucle, comme c'est le cas dans une boucle clothoid, l'accélération centripète est suffisamment progressé pour garder les coureurs et le train de trop ralentir à mesure qu'ils progressent dans la boucle. A large radius is kept through the bottom half of the loop, which reduces the centripetal acceleration and the G-forces acting on the passengers. Un grand rayon est tenu par la moitié inférieure de la boucle, ce qui réduit l'accélération centripète et le G-forces qui agissent sur les passagers. The bottom line is most people would pass out from too many G-forces acting on them if the loop was circular. En bout de ligne, la plupart des gens le passage de trop de G-forces qui agissent sur eux si la boucle était circulaire.

Because we go to Hershey Park in the evenings, the lines are almost non-existent, so I don't spend too much time thinking about physics :) Parce que nous aller à Hershey Park le soir, les lignes sont presque inexistantes, je n'ai donc pas passer trop de temps à réfléchir sur la physique:)

This year Amanda and I got season passes for Hershey Park. Este año, Amanda y me dieron pases para la temporada Hershey Park. We live about 5 miles away so it has been our Friday evening ritual to come home from work, grab a bite to eat, and head over to HP to ride some rides until the park closes. Vivimos unos 5 kilómetros de distancia por lo que ha sido nuestro ritual viernes por la noche para regresar a casa desde el trabajo, agarrar un bocado para comer, y la cabeza a más de HP a montar algunos paseos hasta el parque cerrado. We love the new Fahrenheit roller coaster and the Great Bear and Storm Runner are awesome too. Nos encanta el nuevo Fahrenheit montaña rusa y el Gran Oso y Storm Runner son demasiado impresionantes.

While waiting in an hour-long line for Fahrenheit I thought back to my high school physics class. A la espera de una hora a lo largo de la línea de Fahrenheit he pensado volver a mi escuela de física de alta clase. I remember we learned why roller coaster loops aren't circular, but rather a tear-drop shape called a clothoid. Recuerdo que nos enteramos de la razón por la montaña rusa bucles no son circulares, sino más bien una lágrima soltar forma llamado clothoid. The reason is because circular loops require greater speeds to make it through the whole loop. La razón se debe a que la circular bucles requieren una mayor velocidad para que sea a través de todo el bucle. When you increase the speed going into the loop, the passengers experience greater centripetal acceleration through the lower half of the loop, therefore a greater G-force. Al aumentar la velocidad de entrar en el bucle, los pasajeros una mayor experiencia a través de la aceleración centrípeta la mitad inferior del bucle, por lo tanto una mayor fuerza-G. If the radius is reduced at the top of the loop, as it is in a clothoid loop, the centripetal acceleration is increased enough to keep the riders and the train from slowing too much as they move through the loop. Si el radio se reduce en la parte superior del bucle, ya que se encuentra en un bucle clothoid, la aceleración centrípeta se incrementa lo suficiente como para mantener los corredores y el tren de desaceleración demasiado, ya que se mueven a través del bucle. A large radius is kept through the bottom half of the loop, which reduces the centripetal acceleration and the G-forces acting on the passengers. Una gran radio se mantiene a través de la mitad inferior del bucle, lo que reduce la aceleración centrípeta y el G-fuerzas que actúan sobre los pasajeros. The bottom line is most people would pass out from too many G-forces acting on them if the loop was circular. La conclusión es que la mayoría de las personas salgan de demasiados G-fuerzas que actúan sobre ellos si el bucle es circular.

Because we go to Hershey Park in the evenings, the lines are almost non-existent, so I don't spend too much time thinking about physics :) Debido a que vaya a Hershey Park en las noches, las líneas son casi inexistentes, por lo que no pasan demasiado tiempo pensando en la física:)

This year Amanda and I got season passes for Hershey Park. In diesem Jahr Amanda und ich bekam Saison Pässe für Hershey Park. We live about 5 miles away so it has been our Friday evening ritual to come home from work, grab a bite to eat, and head over to HP to ride some rides until the park closes. Wir leben etwa 5 Kilometer entfernt, so ist es unser Ritual Freitag Abend zu Hause aus arbeiten, greifen ein Bissen zu essen, und über Kopf zu HP auf Fahrt einige Fahrten, bis der Park geschlossen. We love the new Fahrenheit roller coaster and the Great Bear and Storm Runner are awesome too. Wir lieben das neue Fahrenheit Achterbahn und der Große Bär und Storm Runner ist der reine Wahnsinn.

While waiting in an hour-long line for Fahrenheit I thought back to my high school physics class. In der Erwartung, in einer Stunde langen Linie für Fahrenheit Ich dachte zurück an meiner High School Physik Klasse. I remember we learned why roller coaster loops aren't circular, but rather a tear-drop shape called a clothoid. Ich erinnere mich, erfuhren wir, warum Achterbahn Loops sind nicht rund, sondern eher ein Tear-Drop Form genannt clothoid. The reason is because circular loops require greater speeds to make it through the whole loop. Der Grund liegt daran, dass Kreisschleifen erfordern größere Geschwindigkeiten zu machen, durch die gesamte Schleife. When you increase the speed going into the loop, the passengers experience greater centripetal acceleration through the lower half of the loop, therefore a greater G-force. Wenn Sie erhöhen die Geschwindigkeit geht in die Schleife, den Passagieren eine größere Erfahrung zentripetalen Beschleunigung durch die untere Hälfte der Schleife, also eine größere G-Force. If the radius is reduced at the top of the loop, as it is in a clothoid loop, the centripetal acceleration is increased enough to keep the riders and the train from slowing too much as they move through the loop. Wenn der Radius verringert wird am Anfang der Schleife, wie es in einer Schleife clothoid, die zentripetalen Beschleunigung erhöht genug, um die Fahrer und der Zug von Verlangsamung zu viel bewegen, da sie durch die Schlaufe. A large radius is kept through the bottom half of the loop, which reduces the centripetal acceleration and the G-forces acting on the passengers. Ein großer Radius gehalten wird durch die untere Hälfte der Schleife, das reduziert die zentripetalen Beschleunigung und die G-Kräfte, die auf die Passagiere. The bottom line is most people would pass out from too many G-forces acting on them if the loop was circular. Unterm Strich ist den meisten Menschen passieren würde aus zu viele G-Kräfte, die auf sie an, wenn die Schleife war Rundschreiben.

Because we go to Hershey Park in the evenings, the lines are almost non-existent, so I don't spend too much time thinking about physics :) Denn wir gehen auf Hershey Park in den Abendstunden, die Linien sind fast nicht existent, so dass ich nicht zuviel Zeit, über Physik:)
