For vocalists in Western music traditions, the steps of a major scale (doesn’t matter the key) go by the names Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do instead of just 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 the way most other musicians refer to them.
They are saying that in the song ABC by the Jackson Five, the notes they sing in that relative key when they say “Do Re Mi” are actually “So La Do”
Yeah, some were pretty crazy.
Is mostly because stereo sound being widely available was novel and new. I have several albums that are literally just made to let people show off the stereo aspect of their new hi-fi.
And there are some old mixes that are fairly extreme by today’s standards but sound like a very real soundstage - the drums are over there, the vocals over here, etc.
But then some took it too far with the control hard pans and then relying on the hard pan to fix bad levels (like that the drums are too loud)
But even today, it’s not unusual to have some instruments entirely (or very nearly) in one side of the other. Just not the primary instruments carrying the harmony and melody.
Pretty much just kerosene. So not the best, but not horrible. It just uses LOX and RP-1 (highly refined kerosene) for fuel.
So stupid and fake. Guy in an unbuttoned shirt being the stereotypical trust fund bro. Handheld camera conveniently already running and pointed right at the action. r/whyweretheyfilming
So given the median savings in the USA is about $8000, it would feel like $25 does to most of us.
She’s worth $28 billion. Unfortunately she will miss $100 million like the rest of us would miss $50.
“lack of experience in the area…”
Boeing dwarfs SpaceX in experience building spacecraft.
Mercury and Gemini spacecraft were both built by the McDonnell Corp. That company merged with the Douglas Aircraft company (which built the 3rd stage of the Saturn V rocket) becoming McDonnell Douglas in 1967, which merged into Boeing in 1997. Boeing itself co-manufactured the space shuttle orbiters with Rockwell.
On paper and judging from experience and history, if you were going to pick a single company to build a spacecraft, it would be them. Not some brand new company run by a space-obsessed software engineer.
Clearly Boeing has huge cultural issues and has for a while.
Just saying if you wanted to go off experience alone, they’re the best there is.
That is a notable change from “we’re just double checking things on the Starliner, which we think we can fix. We expect them to ride it home soon” that has been the message for a long time. Now it’s “we’re looking at all options”.
Or what has been called one of the most historic and tumultuous years of a century (1968)… Yeah.
Now I gotta look up 1973. Never heard it mentioned in this context…
Answer:
That’s what the saying means. It doesn’t mean perfect isn’t good. It means perfect is great, but don’t let it stop good.
They technical don’t make airframes or doors either (and still don’t until their buyout of their supplier goes through).
If that’s real, that would be after he was struck, right? The bullet is to his left, and he was shot from his right
They did it once, then did it again and not only is it still just a fine, the fine didn’t even go up. Given inflation since then, the fine actually went down in real terms.
That’ll teach them for sure! /s
No, I don’t think so.
The Earth’s density is 5.51 g/cm³.
For comparison, a baseball has a density of 1.3 g/cm³.
Even just the Earth’s surface crust has an average density of 2.7 g/cm³ (it’s more dense under the ocean)
Unless you can compress a baseball with your hands, you’re not making a dent in the Earth.
The only way it would work would be if your strength increased proportionally with your size, which isn’t the case normally for humans (someone 20% taller than another person isn’t necessarily 20% stronger than them).
He was always a grifter. When I was in college in the late 90s he had a financial responsibility program for college students to help them learn how to get out from college debt they were in the process of racking up. It was something like $40-50 a session for a 6-8 week course. That would be roughly $75-90 today.
I watched way too many of my friends give away money to that guy.
That used to be really common. Movie novelizations would come out before the movie, along with soundtracks, etc. It was part of the promotional campaign.
Interesting. I didn’t know there would be minimums like that.
The only people doing this are loaded with enough cash or assets to not have to take out a mortgage. They’ll be fine.
You can’t get a new mortgage without insurance
