Two workers sue company after being 'fired for not attending prayer'

Zapped · 2022-07-01T10:52:41+00:00

North Carolina is one of the right to hire/fire states. Not attending a prayer service is NOT a prohibited reason to fire someone. This is not a government agency, so the Constitutional 1st amendment doesn't apply.

Right? The local supermarkets are more expensive for lesser quality. I'm afraid prices will go up again this year. Usually, we only get one pack, but we have a small chest freezer, so we thought we'd use it.

The wife found this recipe from an online KETO community. For some reason, she cooked bacon strips and then cut them, up instead of dicing and then cooking it.

1 onion, sliced

onion powder, cajun seasoning, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne, salt, pepper

You do get more power from propane than natural gas. If you look at Generac generators, for example, a 24KW is rated for propane but drops to 21KW for NG. I haven't heard of problems with NG and generator power signatures.

Solar is still an expensive investment for the return. I remember when microwave ovens were over $2000.

The lake trout are predatory and invasive, not native to the area. Other methods have not been able to remove them. This method blankets the bottom of the lake with a film that keeps oxygen away from the eggs before they mature.

Weather was nice. Upper 80's, low 90's during the day. We had a brief shower Saturday afternoon while we were on the lake. It got a little muggy in the tent last night, but not too bad. We had neighbors Friday night who got a little loud. My son was asking why the guy was crying (we didn't know there was a female companion until later). We told him maybe the guy was having a bad dream. It didn't last more than 2 minutes, though, and they left Saturday morning.

Zapped · 2022-06-10T15:17:33+00:00

Yes. Nobody's perfect, but we can be perfect enough. I used to listen to a radio psychologist named Dr. Toni Grant way back in the 1990's or early 2000's. She had a saying about parenting. We don't have to be perfect parents. We only have to be perfect enough.

People are good at rationalization. Some of us can rationalize behavior in a way to avoid accountability. "Well, it's not hurting anyone." "Well, just this once. I'm always doing the right thing every other time." "Well, someone else would do it if I didn't." "Well, I'll take care of that tomorrow or next time." Then there are those few of us who abuse the trust of the rest to deceive. It's not a good investment to waste energy on them. Move on. I'm not saying people can't change, but in my experience, you or I can't change them.

One side of the blade or wing on an aircraft is flat and one side is curved. This forces the air across the curved side to speed up so that both sides reach the trailing edge at the same time (curved side has farther to travel to get there). This causes lower pressure and "pulls" the wing, propeller, rotor in the direction of the lower pressure (think vacuum). You can look up Bernoulli's Principle for more on how this works.

Zapped · 2022-06-06T01:21:47+00:00

A fan blade is not necessarily an airfoil. Propeller and rotor blades are designed for lift. They have a distinct shape to their profile.

Wind turbines generally work in places with maintained wind. If you live in a place with intermittent wind, there are wind turbines with a cylindrical shape that work better for that application.
