Sustainable Output

Wednesday, July 30, 2003

• TITLE: "Sustainable Output" I really do think I made this up. If you know of someone who, unlike me, actually knows what they are talking about and has published this before, please let me know.

• "� Boston Globe �" Here's the link to the Boston Globe piece about Dean's fundraising.

• "� Concord Monitor �" Here's the link to the Concord Monitor piece on the weekend's fundraising battle.

• "� Conservation of Angular Momentum �" Here it is:

  "When the net external torque acting on a system about a given axis is zero , the total angular momentum of the system about that axis remains constant."

  OR
  If then = constant

  The most common example of the Law of Conservation of Angular Momentum is a spinning figure skater who, as she pulls her arms closer to her body, spins faster.

• Mullfoto of the Day:
  
  
  This, as if you had to be told, is an unretouched photo of the Mullmeister with a full glass of wine adorning his clothing.

  If someone accidentally spills wine on you at a fairly good restaurant in downtown District of Columbia, you have several choices. You can:

  
  
  
  
  
  
  

  A. Jump up screaming and yelling about how these are the exact trousers you just bought in Kuwait (from this guy) to replace the clothes which were in your roll-aboard which took a hike for three weeks; or,
  
  
  

  B. Sit silently. Verrrrrrry silently. Looking the other person in the eye like Michael Corleone eyeballing Fredo in Havana; or,

  C. Be quite gallant about the whole thing, tossing off clever bon mots and insisting that the person who actually spilled the wine take a photo like this one thereby demonstrating you are, in fact, the carefree fellow you appear to be.
