Fun alternate uses for Cable Ties
Heart Surgery Students at John Hopkins University came up with the idea of using cable ties to close up a chest after heart surgery. The ties are threaded through the rib cage and fastened around the sternum.   Child Proofing If you have little ones visiting your home, it doesn't make sense to purchase and install child locks on your cabinets and doors. Use cable ties to temporarily secure things from curious children.  Mix and MatchYou can mix and match different sizes and varieties of Cable Ties within each product group and receive the best possible quantity break pricing available. Gardening In a garden, plants such as tomatoes often need assistance to grow and stand up straight. By using some ties on a plant stake, you will help to promote upward growth. Emergency Fasteners When a zipper or button busts on a pair of pants, a cable tie can hold everything together. Likewise if you break a shoe lace.  Pet Care Can't find the dog's collar?Try a zip tie. Just be careful not to secure it too tightly. And if the precious pooch has chewed through yet another leash, create a chain of cable ties for an insta-leash.   Handcuffs Too many criminals and not enough hand-cuffs? Break out some cable ties and […]

39 y/o – Getting fat – cannot do anything without hurting all the next day, feel like crap daily etc etc… (that will be my new dating profile description) now watching an insane Muay Thai flick…. (fyi now I feel much fatter and even more out of shape…) can you say time for a change… I have done so many things in my life that suck, always motivate myself past them or through them, but getting back into shape never is on that list… I used to be in great shape.. now its the last thing that matters on a daily basis… time for that to change… why is getting back into shape never really a priority?

This is a bit old – but how cool is this
TrES-2b, the Blackest Planet We've Ever Seen – David A. Aguilar (CfA) Kepler has found the darkest known planet in universe–a Jupiter-sized exoplanet some 750 light-years away that is so black that it reflects just one percent of the light that reaches it. TrES-2b is so black that it’s darker than coal, or any other planet or moon that we’ve yet discovered. It’s less reflective than black acrylic paint. To summarize: it’s really, really black. But TrES-2b is not completely black. It emits an extremely faint red glow, like that of a hot ember. And it turns out that heat is the main culprit behind this darkest of dark planets. TrES-2b orbits its star at a distance of just 3 million miles (by comparison, we’re about 93 million miles from our sun), which leads to surface temperatures on TrES-2b of more than 1,800 degrees. That’s too hot for the formation of ammonia clouds that would reflect some of that incoming radiation as they do on Jupiter. Rather, TrES-2b’s atmosphere is made up of things like vaporized sodium, potassium, and titanium oxide–things that actually compound the problem by absorbing heat. But even these don’t fully explain the planet’s extreme blackness, which […]
