1:55 am
jillibus

I just googled "arctangent crater creator" and there's a whole lot of puzzlement going on about it...
1:55 am
rururocks

they called it a Puggle.. a beagle/pug cross
1:55 am
VolleymomDee

can't begin to imagine what that looked like
1:55 am

I like pugs a lot.. they are cute.. but this thing was hideous
1:56 am

I'm feeling a little better about my bewilderment...Tyler Hinman didn't get it either
1:56 am

they were offended when I told them it wasn't a breed, but that it was a mutt
1:56 am
VolleymomDee

I agree about the mutt classification

m9f9l

this is the best answer I found at a forum: No - Idon't think you're the only person not to get that answer. In a crater, the slope of the side of the crater is simply the arc-tangent of the height difference divided by the horizontal distance. Not sure if that's what the writers were going for - but seeing as Reid has degrees in that area - maybe the writers looked for something obscure. It looked like Reid was about to answer when Penelope did and surprised him.

2:03 am
rururocks

so you measure across and down the crater to see which distance is greater which sooner or later will lead to a satyr?
2:03 am

I'm wondering if it has to do with computer modeling for animation...?
2:04 am

the arctangent..not the chog hiccups

I wonder if the arch tangent has anything to do with McDonald's?

I believe the arctangent has to do with the Busk method of drawing craters (fold cross section) in geology.
2:13 am

...just a theory...
2:17 am
Douglas

Can you give a link to your theory, m9?
2:21 am
m9f9l

http://tinyurl.com/26mtzar although that is VERY obscure. I think the simple solution is usually correct, and concur with the earlier theory. The arctangent describes a "dip" as opposed to a "bump". just the kind of thing a trig student would use to remember the diff.

Oh...if they meant "arc tangent" as in "an arc tangent to two lines" as opposed to "the trigonometric function" that would make a little more sense

my yard seems to be bunny heaven too.. but worse are my groundhogs... i detest them
11:02 am

Trade ya for some skunks, Dorens.
11:03 am

Dorens, we have an overpopulation of them.. and they can be destructive, but .. I admit to thinking they are "cute"
11:03 am

11:03 am
Dorens

sooo destructive, though. things i work hard and plant... and they just mow them down. and liquid fence seems to work for the deer, but not the groundhogs
11:04 am
Aloyisius

one year they destroyed our green beans .. and when one reared on its hind feet and growled at my husband, he turned into Elmer Fudd.. blam, blam
11:04 am
Dorens

i see skunks on my patio at night sometimes, but they haven't destroyed anything (that i know of)
11:05 am
Dorens

they really believe that they belong here. I used to trap them in hav-a-heart traps and transport them far away... but they just get replaced with others.
11:06 am
Judi

Fortunately, no skunks this year. We have dogs, cats and foxes to keep the varmint population to a minimum.
11:06 am
Aloyisius

in Fla. we have a prob. with armadillos digging up everything, looking for grubs.. I was informed that if I want to trap them, on my own property, I need a license to trap and transport wildlife.. ugh
11:07 am
Aloyisius

Judi, that is the problem.. the balance is upset.. no cats or dogs.. and so ..
11:07 am
Dorens

see, and i think armadillos are cute
11:09 am
Aloyisius

cute? h'mmm.. I don't see them as they are nocturnal, but I sure see the evidence of their hunt for food
11:10 am

11:13 am

not yet, Judi.. I did do some research on the net tho.. seems that human urine is a repellent..
11:13 am

I don't think most wild animals like garlic. Vicks Vap-o-rub is supposed to deter them as well.

Aloyisius

Judi, I miss having pets so much, but need to "rent a cat" until we are settled in one place.. don't want to leave them or transport them long distances, too cruel methinks
11:17 am
Judi

Or just smoosh some on some fallen leaves, Flosey, and leave them near the plants.
11:17 am
Aloyisius

good news, ch1212 ! we have moles too..
11:18 am

Moles are attracted to grubs. If you get rid of your grubs, you'll get rid of the moles.

Can I admit that I am feeling very childish. I have been plannign to run a 5K tomorrow and I dont want to go because I am afraid I may finish very close to last. In fact, I probably will...still...
7:10 pm
Pinikula

you can admit, red...
7:11 pm
Jellen

It's not bad, red...
7:11 pm
Pinikula

consider finding "running" with someone you meet while waiting for the gun...
7:12 pm
Pinikula

...company can make it easier to accomplish...just a thought.
7:12 pm
redturtlehead

It's hard to be slow. people always think that finishing i some big accomplishment for slow people, but it is just finishing. I am glad however, that my achilles is attached.
7:12 pm
redturtlehead

oh the distance is not an issue, its 3 miles. Its more that I am not as fast as I used to be.
7:12 pm
Pinikula

gads, my word skills sucked in that last comment
7:13 pm
redturtlehead

I think we got it though Pinik! we are good at translating.
7:13 pm
Pinikula

what makes you think there won't be others there who have the same thinking you do? you might surprise yourself and do better than you actually think you'll do!
7:13 pm
wildcat17

I think it's a big accomplishment to finish such a thing because I can't run like that. I think it's awesome you're planning to run even though you don't think you're fast
7:13 pm
Pinikula

(thx red ;))
7:14 pm
redturtlehead

I always think that but I tend to now end up at the bottom, but I want to do the run because it supposrts a good cause and the t shirt is great, and I need to do a few actual competitive runs.
7:15 pm
redturtlehead

Well, i will be running an hour from my home so perhaps I wont run into people I know...
7:16 pm
Pinikula

focus on the positive part of the run (great cause, you're fit enough to run!); don't dwell on the negative (that you may not do it as fast as you'd like)
7:16 pm
brid

think of all of us who aren't running as finishing behind you. cause we would. totally. very very far.
7:16 pm
Pinikula

in fact, if you continue to think of negatives...consider countering each negative with two positives!!! I have faith in you!!! You can do it!
7:17 pm
brid

so the fact that you're doing it, and running, is pretty amazing. no matter where you end up.
7:17 pm
brid

you may always consider yourself kicking my ass.

I agree with pini about having a positive attitude ... you are, after all, just recovered from an injury and won't this be your first run since that?
7:19 pm
redturtlehead

but thank you all. I hope I can get it together to enjoy it....and remember last year at this time when my achilles was flopping about and making it hard to walk...
7:20 pm

aw, man, see. and i was impressed with just running the race. before i found back you were coming off of something like that.

oh yeah, Minver? I just quit last year, finally, was bloody hard for me and I've been battling it since, had a few relapses but got right back on the wagon after each one! only thing that finally worked for me was Champix, but didn't like the side effects from it, so using the patch and ecigarettes along with sheer willpower and determination!!

I was wondering the exact same thing Krista. I want to suggest Champix to my hubby.He probably will not use it though. I have never heard of Champix before.
7:58 pm
Krista

It supposedly really works to kill the cravings. And yes, it only works if they take it, huh. Hopefully George's side effect wasn't too personal to share, lol.
7:59 pm

Actually Minve, it's Chantix. Side effects are vivid dreams btw. Sure has helped a lot of people I know to quit

thanks you
11:05 pm
Minveryork

With a puzzle this large, I de4/5 it necessary to do a story of clues. I have a me 4/5 23 words left so I'll do my story early. My hubby, whose name is Mi 4/9, is a sm 6/33. He sm 6/33 at least 2 packs a day. Nothing against sm7/48,but I really hate his habit.Hubby had his first cigarette on pr 4/5 night.His date made him try it and he has been addicted ever since then. His addiction has gotten even wo5/18 over the past few years. Hubby's plans to quit have gone aw 4/10 many times. Each time he quit he was always on ed4/7 and was very ed4/9. I was also wa4/10 every time hubby quit because I knew it wouldn't be for long. One time he sw 5/18 he quit, but I sp 5/14 on him one day and saw him lighting up. He accused me of being a sp5/12 and not minding my business.We have gotten into de 4/6 arguments over his bad habit. Sometimes I think he refuses to quit out of sh 5/12 stubborness. I have had nightma4/5s that he had lung cancer. I know he would be filled w/re7/32 if he ever really did get lung cancer. My life would be a me 4/5 if I ever lost him. I pr4/7 everyday that he'll quit pe4/5anently one day. Maybe God will hear my pr 7/40. However, right now it se 5/12 like he cannot be sw 6/39 to quit, but I am se4/5 hopeful. Wish I could sp5/16 a magic potion on him that would make him hate cigarettes. Husband is being an ar 4/4 and wants the computer. It ir4/4 me when he takes the computer away from me. Oh well, my ey4/6 are sore anyway. I hope you we4/8 able to find some mo 4/5 words from my story. Be back later.
