Unfortunately, although the trade-off of speed versus torque can be adjusted in favour of torque and tractive effort by reducing the size of the driving wheels, there is a practical limit below which this cannot be done without making the piston stroke too short on a directly driven locomotive.\n\n> The solution is to separate the crank from the wheels, firstly allowing for a reasonable piston stroke and crank radius without requiring larger than desired driving wheels, and secondly allowing for reduction in rotational speed via gearing. Such a locomotive is a geared locomotive. Most were and are still single speed, but some did employ a variable-ratio gearbox and multiple ratios.\n\nSo direct-drive engines weren't always the way to go in slow-speed, hi-torque situations like logging operations and mines.

If in winter, you can fit in a day of skiing or snowboarding for less than $100/person with transportation, lift pass, and equipment rental included.\n\n4) Drive South through the Brenner pass, spend a night or two in Verona and discover the city. It's a neat place with lots of history, and there's plenty to see. (Optionally skip Verona and spend the days in Munich on the way back, that's a fantastic place as well.)\n\n5) Drive East and go to Venice. Find a place to park the car in Mestre and take a train in. Venice is the kind of place that you'll want to stay for 3-4 days as a regular tourist. You can stretch that by a day or so if you're suuuuper into classical music and arts, but for most people 4 days is the max before tiring of it.\n\nIf you're going for just a week then head back up to Munich and fly home. If you're staying for another week, then you have options.\n\n* Lago di Garda is a gorgeous lake at the foothills of the Italian Alps a bit West of Verona. If you want to relax after a week of city hopping then this is definitely the place to go to to end things on a leisurely note.\n\n* If you're up for more cities, get on the Autostrada and hit up Bologna, Florence, and Pisa. It's a bit of a drive back to Munich from down there, but definitely worth it to see those places.\n\n* If you liked Innsbruck and the Alps and you've had your fill of Italy then you have options:\n\n * Leave Venice, go Northeast and hit up Vienna and Salzburg, \n\n * Leave Venice, go Northwest and go hiking in the gorgeous Austrian valleys if in summer (I definitely recommend Soelden for this,) or skiing if in winter (Soelden is nice for this again, so is Ischgl and Kitzbuhel). You can even go skiing in summer on the glaciers at Hintertux and Obergurgl, super cool experience,\n\n * Leave Venice and go West, hit up Milano and see their beautiful Duomo if interested, otherwise bypass it and go through Como into Switzerland by Lugano and see some of the most beautiful sights nature has to offer and eat some of the best food you'll ever have. There's a ton to see and do in that region, and it's an easy drive back to Munich when you're done.\n\nIf you're up for all the driving, this is one of the best ways to spend 2 weeks on vacation you'll find anywhere.

Neat city, but the permanent resident population is at it's lowest levels, and is mainly inhabited by toursists and foreign workers. The city is basically an empty shell of it's former, glorious self. To find a popular restaurant with Italian staff is a win. It floods allot, and is sinking. Most tourists show up on a cruise ship and leave before the end of the day, so go out around dusk (if you're at a hotel) at least once, but be careful! Lastly, go to Murino, famous for hand-blown glass, it's a 15 min boat ride and much less crowded. Otherwise getting around Venice on foot is your only option unless you want to pay $400 for a shitty gondola ride in a crowded gondola canal. It's definitely not like the movies.

The benefit of being a large man is that people don't fuck with me when I'm wandering around alone minding my own business, and Venice is safe pretty much everywhere.

Coffee and cake in the square is very expensive. The food in the restaurants is very expensive. And by expensive imagine how much you think a high price would be, then double or triple it. Everything costs a lot, and the Venecian view is that this is fine because the city is crumbling and falling into the sea and it will take all your tourist funds to keep it going. And we want to keep it as a tourist attraction don't we?\n\nI understand the need to preserve the buildings and the history, and the buildings are no longer owned by fabulously wealthy merchants who can spend millions on upkeep, but there is a real danger that the very tourists who keep the place alive will be driven away because of high prices. Or they won't come because the ship's that bring them are no longer allowed to dock in Venice due to the erosion caused by the cruise liners.\n\nThere is a balance to strike between letting people enjoy the history and ensuring that they don't cause more damage but I felt as if I was welcome to look so long as there was a hand in my wallet the whole time.\n\nBut it is a magical place to go and it may just be me that felt that way.

I've tried Dust-Off, camel-hair brushes, ethanol washes, you name it, nothing gets the microscopic stuff. That's kinda WHY they handle real IC wafers in a clean room.\n\nSo I had seen on the intertubes that some people who are into vinyl records advocate a rather odd cleaning procedure: wood glue. They slather a layer of glue on the record, let it dry thoroughly, then peel it off, which peels off all the dust and gunk with it.\n\nSo I figured I'd try it with a wafer, and whaddya know, it works great. The wafer is as clean as when it came out of the fab. But then I got to looking at the slab of glue I pulled off and noticed it had the IC pattern on it, and I wondered just how detailed that pattern was, so I put it under the microscope, and this is what I got: the world's FIRST glue cast of an integrated circuit.

This is great for body building because once your cells are at max size from anabolic steroid use you need new cells to grow. The problem is IGF tells ALL cells in the body to divide, not just the muscle cells. And there are a ton of IGF receptors in the intestines, this causes your intestines to grow to incredible size.\n\nNormally even body builders taking GH don’t have that huge gut, but the ones who inject insulin as well WILL have this growth. GH wasn’t used at all until the ‘80s and didn’t become popular until the late 90s that’s why the gut isn’t seen in guys from the preGH days.\n\nNormally (diabetes really complicates this so assume a healthy person) your body releases insulin in response to sugar and it’s pretty even so your natural GH or even exogenous GH injections don’t have much insulin around to make IGF, its the limiting factor.

That organ growth is the part of the bubble gut that’s not going to be reversed. \n\nThe experience of Dorian Yates in the 90s is a very good source for finding out what was driving what in the creation of the bubble gut phenomenon.

In some cases it will allow you to consume more at a lower amount of calories (because leafy greens and high-fibre veggies do that.) I find the biggest problem with these eating plans is that they include a lot of starchy and fatty whole foods, which aren’t bad for you, but will rack up the calorie count fast. One vegan plan that I did years ago had me drop 20lbs in 3 weeks. Mostly water retention, believe it or not. After that, my BM’s were like clockwork, but the weight didn’t move. \n\nUnless you are weighing all of your portions, it can be really easy to eat more than you think. Especially if you’re a petite female. We have a really low target for fat loss, and it can be ridiculously difficult some days. Which brings me back to weighing your portions. Seriously. Eyeballing does not work. Plus, give your adherence at least 4 weeks before you decide it’s not working. For females: at least 6. Yay hormones. Then adjust down a couple hundred calories and try again. If you are short and hitting the 900-1000 calorie range and still not losing weight, see a doctor. There might be something wrong. You should never need to go that low if you’re taller than 5’2”. \n\nAlso, if you’re using MFP, I have 3 points to help:\n\n1. Set your own calorie target. Use the iifym calculator or something like it. I’m 5’3”, female, moderately sedentary, and have a weight-loss calorie goal of about 1300kCal, but I also don’t count veggies unless they’re starchy. (Potatoes, corn, carrots, squash etc are all counted, lettuces, celery, cukes, pickles, onions, cabbage, peas, fresh herbs etc are not.)\n\n2. When adding a new food, check it against the packaging or a trusted food info site. People are lazy about their entries and put in the wrong stuff a lot. Plus, recipes change, which in turn change the nutritionals on packaged foods. \n\n3. Don’t eat back the exercise calories that MFP automatically adds in. The calories burned estimates for exercise are wildly inaccurate, no matter what kind of tracker you use. \n\nIf you don’t use MFP, maybe these tips can help someone else. And please remember losing weight is a slog. If you have 100lbs to lose, you may be looking at a few years before you get there. The closer you get to your goal, the slower the loss will be. And the more muscle mass you carry, the more efficient your body will be at burning fat, and the more mobility you will have.

I cut out everything besides wheat (and even then I eat a whole wheat product once a day, no more than that) and I have noticed that my hunger between meals has been reduced by a decent amount. Also, 28 g of cheese is calorically equivalent to like 86 g of cooked brown rice.

That really takes care of a lot of fat. The simple formula is you use more calories than you take in. Everyone varies, though, and there are no shortcuts I'm aware of but I'll share my general daily intake right now:\n\nMorning I have a protein shake (within an hour of waking up. Supposedly it hurts you if you skip breakfast since your body now needs to store fat for energy) and then a couple of hours later I drink water and eat a 150 calorie sandwich ( I eat these https://www.samsclub.com/sams/turkey-saus-sandwich-12-ct-36-oz/prod17970072.ip?xid=plp:product:1:4 ). \n\nDrink water throughout the day since it's important in general to stay hydrated and then I have another protein drink for lunch. When I get home about 4 hours later I'll have a bowl of Special K cereal w/ unsweetened almond milk, cookies and cream Quest protein bar, and, starting recently, 6 hard-boiled eggs which I don't eat the yoke since it has too much calories for that many eggs. I may eat another protein bar and/or bowl of cereal an hour or two later as long as it's before 8-9pm since it's not the best to eat after that especially if you're going to sleep. Weekends I'll eat a meal consisting of meat, white rice, and vegetables but I need to eat more of that stuff I feel. I've been using the meals more of a treat for myself rather than a meal and I'm starting to think it's not a good idea.\n\nThat has been my general, daily meal routine. I actually started eating this way while including pizza lunchables until I realized the money being spent on them would be better spent on protein bars. Again, we all vary and everyone should stick with whatever works for them. The important part is eating healthy and sticking with the low calories.\n\nI feel I'm pretty lucky to not care about having sweets or junk food. I know some people have a lot harder time with diet so ymmv. Do what you can stick with and not what others are doing if it's too hard. The killer of exercise is lack of continuity. I just turned 32 last December and I'm just now getting into shape mostly due to finally overcoming a big chunk of my severe depression so I have a lot to catch up on.\n\nI truly believe you can succeed in being the shape you want to be in. It sucks but it really comes to sticking with a plan which I ask you to please make a plan especially for exercise. Going to the gym is better than not but you could be progressing better and faster if you know what you're doing before you enter instead of figuring it out on the spot).\n\n", "Oh, shit I just found the email.

In Alberta now :)", "your freckles get donated too?", "So there was a comment on here earlier that I put a lot of thought into responding to, so I'm just gonna post it anyway.\n\n\nSomeone asked what the point of shaving my head was (or growing a mustache, etc). Wouldn't people just give $20 anyway? Why does it make a difference.\n\n\nHere's my thoughts:\n\nSo I'm not going to downvote because it's a valid statement, I just wanted to let you know a bit more about my experience and how I've found it's not just about cutting hair or growing mustaches. \n\n\nMy cousin is sick and is trying to raise money for cancer research, so I was trying to think of what I could do to help him make his goal, which is kind of his last legacy as he's terminal at this point. I'm not artistic, I don't know any rich people, and I can't organize a charity gala or anything, so I had to think smaller. I had a friend who went through breast cancer treatments last year and lost her hair and didn't want to come outside into the world because of how 'ugly' she felt. Until she got a wig. The change in her perception (and others' perception of her) was palpable. She was back to being happy, bubbly and it really helped her feel better and get back to living.\n\n\nSo I decided to donate my hair. It was long enough (barely) to cut and make into a wig, but I figured people would donate more if I did something more drastic, which is where the shave came from. So far I've managed to raise $5000 that is going straight to cancer research. That's not because of a hair cut. That's because of a shitload of work getting it out there, using social media, talking about it, campaigning for money at both of my jobs and doing 6am radio interviews to get additional exposure.\n\n\nYesterday, 10 minutes before the shave, a gentleman came into the salon with $40 for my campaign because he heard it on the radio the day before. Someone who doesn't know me, certainly doesn't know my cousin, but felt compelled to reach out and support. I've had messages from people on 3 continents giving me well-wishes and sharing my posts, even though it in no way affects them. It has also brought people in my life out of the woodwork who feel like they're able to talk to me about their experiences (be it personal or familial or whatever) with various forms of cancer.\n\n\nMy cousin has so far raised £52,000 for his cause, with ~£3000 coming from my head shaving campaign. I wouldn't have been nearly as successful if I just asked people for money. Yeah, I'd have got $20 here and there, but fundraising at a small level is so much harder than it seems. People want to feel like they're getting something out of it, or that it's making a difference. And I needed to show them how much of a difference it'll make. More than anything, it got people talking, and people talking creates something so much more than just some lady asking for money for a charity in a different country. I even had a group of people who I do volunteer work with donate $1000. They would never have done that if I were just talking about it.\n\n\nMovember sparks a conversation about something that most men don't want to talk about. It normalizes having a conversation and gently coaxes men, once a year, to be their own health advocate, while raising money for the same cause. I have friends that do their Christmas photo ever year on November 30th so they all have dorky mustaches for their Christmas cards. I have a friend that takes a poll of which type of mustache he should grow. Whoever raised the most money the year before gets to choose. It's more about creating conversation that then allows the awareness to snowball itself. And growing a mustache or shaving your head is a great way to create that spark.", "Someone donate a haircut to her.", "And you're a redhead. Feel so bad for redheads that lose their hair and need wigs because there are so few of us that red hair isn't always available.", "Number 1 way to put a person with a buzz cut to sleep.\n\nSource: am person with buzzcut", "Different lighting at work vs. salon!
