Yeah, but it'll keep your engine going for another 100 miles in a pinch.

Hmm,  a tort claim for unreasonably high levels of viscosity.
You taking the case then?

We've been to the one at St. Armond's Circle and it is really great food.

Biomolecules such as amino acids and sugars occur in two mirror-image forms—in all living organisms, however, only one is ever found.

The so-called homochirality of life—the fact that all biomolecules in living organisms only ever occur in one of two mirror-image forms—has puzzled a number of scientific luminaries, from the discoverer of molecular chirality, Louis Pasteur, to William Thomson (Lord Kelvin) and Nobel Prize winner Pierre Curie.

A conclusive explanation is still lacking, as both forms have, for instance, the same chemical stability and do not differ from each other in their physicochemical properties. The hypothesis, however, that the interplay between electric and magnetic fields could explain the preference for one or the other mirror-image form of a molecule—so-called enantiomers—emerged early on.
It was only a few years ago, though, that the first indirect evidence emerged that the various combinations of these force fields can indeed "distinguish" between the two mirror images of a molecule. This was achieved by studying the interaction of chiral molecules with metallic surfaces that exhibit a strong electric field over short distances.

Of course. With a name like Stutzmann, what else could she be?

Fishing West Bay in Galveston with my dad we were wade fishing with several fish on our stringers

we had a hammerhead make several circles around us at a distance of 50 feet

Most of the time these guys will go away but this time he didnt

My Dad made me tie my stringer to the end of my fishing rod as he did also

We then walked slowly back to the boat about 200 feet away holding our fish well away from us

Fortunately nothing happened as we go back to our boat without incident

While shark attacks are rare in Galveston they do happen
I love fishing and wade fishing.  But sometimes spooky stuff can happen in the water.

Sharks can swim pretty fast. 

They tend to suffer in the other two legs of a triathlon, though.

What's the lowdown on Peruvian food? I tried some last week, and it was pretty good.

Soooooo good... Kind of a cultural fusion cuisine of a bunch of different sources... South American (obv), but with some Asian influence, and almost Italian at times (i.e. a lot of noodles/spaghetti). 

I attached a recipe we make often. It's a nicely-spiced beef dish stir fried with vegetables (red onion, tomatoes, scallions, chile pepper), with a slightly thickened sauce using red wine, soy sauce, and beef broth, and then tossed with spaghetti noodles. 

Freakin' delicious. Below picture is actually our version.

Sylvester Stallone ditched California for Florida. He says it's a personal move, but he'll likely enjoy the lower taxes, too. (msn.com)
