[lace-chat] Horseshoe Pattern

Thank you to all who replied to my request for a Horseshoe Pattern, and
especially to Ruth Budge for sending me a pricking.

Having moved recently and all my belongings are scattered in three different
storage areas, I have been unable to access my lace books and much of my
lace equipment as I don't know exactly where it is hence my request.

Once again, thank you one and all for replying.

[lace-chat] Go to Hell!

2006-05-06 Thread Penny
The following is an actual question given on a University of Liverpool
chemistry final exam.
The answer by one student was so profound that the professor shared it
with colleagues via the Internet, which is why we now have the pleasure of
enjoying it as well.

Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?

Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law that
gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed or some variant.

One student, however, wrote the following:

  First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we
need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at
which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul
gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how
many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different religions that
exist in the world today. Most of these religions state that, if you are not
a member of their religion, you will go to Hell.

  Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not
belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell.
With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in
Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the
volume in Hell. Because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature
and pressure in Hell to stay constant, the volume of Hell must expand
proportionately as souls are added.

  This gives two possibilities:

  1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls
enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until
all Hell breaks loose.

  2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in
Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.

  So which is it?

  If we accept the postulate given to me by Sandra during my freshman year,
that it will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you, and take into
account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number 2 must be
true, and thus I am sure that Hell is endothermic and has already frozen
over.

  The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it
follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is extinct...leaving
only Heaven, thereby proving the existence of a divine being - which
explains why, last night, Sandra kept shouting Oh my God.

THIS STUDENT RECEIVED THE ONLY A.

[lace-chat] Fw: Why Engineers don't write Recipe Books

2005-04-11 Thread Penny
I forwarded this to an engineer friend and this was his response!

 
  Chocolate Chip Cookies:
 
  Ingredients:
 
1.) 532.35 cm3 gluten
2.) 4.9 cm3 NaHCO3
3.) 4.9 cm3 refined halite
4.) 236.6 cm3 partially hydrogenated tallow triglyceride
5.) 177.45 cm3 crystalline C12H22O11
6.) 177.45 cm3 unrefined C12H22O11
7.) 4.9 cm3 methyl ether of protocatechuic aldehyde
8.) Two calcium carbonate-encapsulated avian albumen-coated protein
9.) 473.2 cm3 theobroma cacao
10.) 236.6 cm3 de-encapsulated legume meats (sieve size #10)
 
 
 Typical yanks engineer that don't doesn't understand the metric system - 
 surely the measurements should be in grams to ensure that they remain 
 independent of material density variations that can occur due to in 
 transit agitation of ingredients ..
 
 Given the reactor vessel heat transfer coefficient the applicable heat 
 flux, area and spatial orientation should be specified to ensure 
 repeatable results...
 
 Lack of any QA requirements for ingredient acquisition, storage and 
 pre-production quality checks, combined with a lack of proper 
 tolerancing of all pertinent variables etc. is sure to lead to 
 disappointment although this is partially mitigated by the total lack of 
 any risk management or security protocols which may result in canine 
 ingestion of the product prior to achievement of thermal equilibrium 
 during the cooling phase thus concealing the poor product quality.
 
 One doesn't wish to appear nitpicking but shouldn't oven humidity and 
 the ratios of radiant and convection heat transfer also be specified 
 assuming typical values for mean oven surface emissivity values expected 
 between planned triennial outages for oven cleaning and maintenance.
 
 The trouble is you just can't get decent engineers anymore, just 
 glorified food technicians with a worthless degree.

[lace-chat] Fw: Song by Julie Andrews

2005-03-04 Thread penny
 To commemorate her 69th birthday on October 1, actress/vocalist Julie 
 Andrews made a special appearance at Manhattan's Radio City Music Hall 
 for the benefit of the AARP. One of the musical numbers she performed 
 was My Favourite Things from the legendary movie Sound Of Music. 
 However, the lyrics of the song were deliberately changed for the 
 entertainment of her blue hair audience. Here are the lyrics she 
 recited:
 
 Maalox and nose drops and needles for knitting,
 Walkers and handrails and new dental fittings,
 Bundles of magazines tied up in string,
 These are a few of my favourite things.
 
 Cadillac's and cataracts and hearing aids and glasses,
 Polident and Fixodent and false teeth in glasses,
 Pacemakers, golf carts and porches with swings,
 These are a few of my favourite things.
 
 When the pipes leak,
 When the bones creak,
 When the knees go bad,
 I simply remember my favourite things,
 And then I don't feel so bad.
 
 Hot tea and crumpets, and corn pads for bunions,
 No spicy hot food or food cooked with onions,
 Bathrobes and heat pads and hot meals they bring,
 These are a few of my favourite things.
 
 Back pains, confused brains, and no fear of sinnin',
 Thin bones and fractures and hair that is thinnin',
 And we won't mention our short shrunken frames,
 When we remember our favourite things.
 
 When the joints ache,
 When the hips break,
 When the eyes grow dim,
 Then I remember the great life I've had,
 And then I don't feel so bad.
 
 Ms. Andrews received a standing ovation from the crowd that lasted over 
 four minutes and repeated encores.

Dear Secret Pal

Thank you so much for another wonderful parcel which arrived this morning
much to the annoyance of the cat who will insist on sleeping behind the
front door and was rudely awakened by the delivery of the mail which landed
on him.

The contents are just marvellous - the silk is lovely and I shall save it
for a special occasion.  I have not seen the metallic threads before and the
packages are almost too nice to open.  I have not seen the Needle Pullers
before but they will certainly be put to good use in the not too distant
future.  The pins will also be used and the card stock survived so that will
go into my store too.

Until next time
