Survivor reminder 10/24/12
Comments (15)the reason they were not cooking the rice was that it has been raining solid and their fire is out. But there are caves all over the place in fact they have been seen huddling in a cave at some points, I would build the dang fire in the cave and cook me some rice! And I would be out there finding food. I come from Cajun blood and Cajun country a lot of those folks down on the bayou survive on what they can catch or grow, true living off the land and water! Those idiots on survivor would die if they had to live that life. IF you do not have money and hungry mouths to feed you had best be finding something in the woods or the bayou to feed em! NO going out and robbing someone because all the rest of the neighbors are living off the land too LOL. I am seeing all those monkeys and they have a spear gun HELLO are you really hungry??? Plus there are wild chickens all over you know if there are chickens there are eggs somewhere! Yes follow the monkeys they are not starving they know where the food is! Find those bananas! One season they were frying up the coconut and the coconut milk that is really good stuff why are they not doing that? Coconuts are abundant. Coconuts and the milk are really good for you, I did see Johnathan eating coconut on the last show....See MoreIs a 12/10 pitch the same as a 10/12 pitch? Vaulted ceiling question.
Comments (32)The continuing confusion in this thread is due to the fact that the rise/run is shown on opposite or opposing pitches on an elevation. The architect's notation is correctly shown. It's some of the folks on this thread that are misinterpreting what is shown. Looking at the elevations, the horizontal element is always shown as 12, regardless of the elevation side or direction of pitch. The horizontal element is consistently 12! 12! The vertical dimension is the pitch dimension and in the elevation it is consistently shown as 10! 10! Thus, on each opposing sides of the roof, the roof pitch is 10 in 12, but the geometry of the notation 10/12 has to be reversed to match the change in opposite pitch. Just look at the elevations and the horizontal and vertical notations. Vertical is always 10. Horizontal is always 12. It's that simple! 10/12 is not the same as 12/10! Come on people! I don't know what experience that response comes from. The numerator is always the vertical axis. The denominator is always the horizontal axis. Thus, it's clear that 10/12 is not the same as 12/10! I have never seen a set of construction drawings or known a roofer that measures horizontally in less than 12 inches. Does anyone think a 4 in 12 pitch is the same as a 12 in 4 pitch? Come on! The denominator is always 12 inches. It's the standard of the trade. It's the way a framing square is marked! As for architects being a strange group and not above making things confusing that could be simpler, just go back and re-read this thread, from top to bottom, largely made up of comments from non-architects. Now that's confusing! And inaccurate! Thus endeth the lesson on roof pitch and notation! :-)...See More12/18 Survivor Finale Pt 2
Comments (15)Sue is one amazing woman. I know she's had work but her body is so muscular and at 59, she was a threat in challenges. I'm glad so many women were at the end. Sam was the entitled male and I was sad Teeny lost the fire challenge. Absolutely there should be barriers for both players so the wind doesn't decide the outcome. I didn't know Rachel was a standby in the last season. I didn't even know of such a thing. Loyalty is very important and it played out in this season. Rachel deserved to win and it should have been unanimous. You don't vote for friendship like Kyle did....See More12/3 Survivor tonight
Comments (9)They should've gotten out Savannah. Sophie may have flipped on the next vote while they know they'll never split up Savannah and Rizo. I hate Rizo's cockiness. Little twerp....See More- 10 months ago
