Re: Twitter

Eh, it's the same as anything else. Some people are simply inaccessible to the general public because of high demand and high security. I mean, if you're trying to network with high-profile people like Bill Gates or Steve Jobs, you'd better be a high-profile person yourself. They simply don't have t...

Re: Bleach and food coloring

Or you could try the method my dad did for FHE once-- let us color on the wall with permanent marker and then tried covering it up with paint. Too bad he didn't realize at the time that permanent marker bleeds through paint. :) I heard it took a LOT of paint to cover up that mistake! Oh the irony. ...

Re: Faith + Science

So, given that faith enables agency and protects against first degree sin, how does all of this come in to play during the Millennium? Christ will be on Earth, available for people to see and touch - perfect knowledge, right? Yet people will still have agency, there will still be multiple religious...

Huh. I've seen that object lesson done before, and it worked perfectly. Maybe you're using a weird brand of food coloring?

Re: Nine for Random Chatter, doomed to die

Spring is totally here. Heck, it's almost hot outside...almost. I'd like to go out and enjoy it, but I've been feeling like junk today. It's almost like I'm getting eyestrain, even though I've actually spent less time using the computer today. Sort of a pressure headache slash slightly nauseated fee...

I'm gonna go for stalker. :) And I know it was mean to place that taunting bit of info out there that people are gonna want answers for, but it'd make it way, way, way, too easy to discover our identities from it. So, no. I'm not gonna tell you what that alternative mode of transport is. :D It's th...

Re: Running

For our track and cross country workouts, we would usually jog between 0.5 to 1 mile for the warm up, stretch for a while, and then do the actual workout. Then to cool down, we would do these silly things for two laps around the football field. It was kind of like doing jumping jacks while moving si...

Re: Polygamy

I'm not really sure what information I can believe (having seen reports of fictional accounts in 19th century newspapers, only for an article to be printed later saying it was a hoax); on the other hand, however many terrible things we can dig up about the LDS church's history, my faith is such tha...

Running

http://theboard.byu.edu/questions/62787/ Sorry to bring up running again. I know that most of you hate it. But does anybody on this board have any exercise expertise? Because this answer pretty much goes against everything I've ever thought about running. Granted, I'm no expert, so...take this with ...

Re: IQ Test

Yes, one piece of the image gets rotated 90 degrees every time. You just have to figure out which piece and follow the pattern. That puzzle is particularly interesting because it works both horizontally and vertically. As for the folded cube, you don't really need to fold up the entire cube to figur...

Re: IQ Test

5. A rancher plans to add a post between every two posts of an open-ended (straight) fence. If he currently has 10 posts in the fence, how many does he need to insert? Wouldn't the answer to this one be either 4 or 6? Those weren't in the answer choices...so I went with 5 instead. And I never figur...
