Post-event Analysis

Safety Engineers descend upon the near-miss to study the preceding events, human factor decisions, physical properties of equipment, and environmental states that led to the near tragedy. 

April Wonderland

Those mid-springtime storms, sometimes they can get you into a Yuletide mood.  Enough to prop your feet up, stoke-up the fireplace, sip on a hot beverage, and listen to an old favorite. 

Sprang

It takes a special gift to visualize animation in the unseen world.  Without fast-forward on a stop-action camera, most human brains are unable to conceptualize motion within their perception of stationary objects such as these reproductive organs.   Fortunately, there are a few who understand thoroughly and translate the biophysics for the rest of us. 

Steamworks

Nothing beats a dip in the tub for a stretch and a tasty libation to dislodge that lactic acid, improve flexibility, mitigate pain, and simply increase overall well-being. 

In the Pink

The future turned rosy for the Thrilling Three.  Tax refunds are on the way, the annoying neighbor moved-out, the supposed flat tire was just a chunk of mud, the cop let 'em go with a warning, the cat came home, the road construction project wrapped-up, April has three paydays, there is moisture in the forecast and the ski area decided to open for one more weekend, the Governor's visit got cancelled, the tulips multiplied and the dandelions disappeared, Grandma's infarction turned-out to be heartburn, Donald Chump dropped-out of the race, the leaky roof was actually a forgotten water bottle in the attic, they snagged free smoothies for being the 1,000th customer, the home team won their game, the curfew ended, the lawn aerator dude mistakenly hit theirs, and not a single bill appeared in the mailbox. 

Die or AMA

The Dean of the Harvard School of Biology Exposes his grad students to a baseline set of information in order to accelerate their research and get a jump on the competition.  Publish or perish, it's not just a saying, it's a way of life. 

Fast Company

The sound barrier never had a chance.  Duct tape, bailing wire, gorilla glue, not even a welding torch could prevent it from breaking on this day. 

No Fooling

How SWEET to enjoy this wonderful planet Earth in all its splendor.  Before long, Jack Frost will be a distant memory.  But there is no need to fret, for he will fulfill his promise again in a matter of months.  Until then, we can grin and bear it.
