And it looks like a similar effort that was abandoned at subledger.com. It think there can be a market for something like this and hopefully this one works out.
Well, there he mourns visual comedy, which is not exactly the same (you can have visual comedy without physical comedy -- well, aside from the performer doing its thing).
Visual comedy could be made in the editing, backgrounds, etc (as in many examples given in the video) even if the actors don't do physical comedy at all.
True of course, though the video does have some examples of physical comedy as well; no 7 in his list for example. Personally I love this example from Hot Stuff: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30kUNex1cuI
Doesn't the birthday paradox/pigeonhole principle apply here? If we assume that there are 1,000,000,000 unique values, then the square root of a billion (31,622) is all you need for a 50% chance of collision.
I'd addressed that a week or few back regards account security questions. A big problem is that there are only so many place names in any country, and of those, a relatively small set with birthing centres.
There are 248 birthing centers in the United States, and only about 1% of all births occur outside of one (typically a BC is at a hospital).
I think you are reading that wrong. There are 248 freestanding birthing centers that are not attached to hospitals. 0.4% of births occur in birthing centers. 0.9% occur at home. 98.6% of births occur in hospitals. There are >5000 hospitals in the US.
A survey or count of maternity words, or labour & maternity centres, or ... whatever else they're called now ... is rather hard to come by.
This long HuffPo piece profiling the problem ... manages to specifically fail to answer that question, though it does note that "more than half of all rural counties in this country are now without a single local hospital where women can get prenatal care and deliver babies."
Ah, that could very well be the case, as the number sounded somewhat absurdly low. I was trusting in the source, and definitions weren't particularly clear.
I'm not sure every "hospital" itself has a maternity ward, given my familiarity with several specifically in outlying areas (many are not much more than glorified first-aid stations, without permanent resident physician staff -- that happens to be how I'm principally aware of them).
But we're down to something on the order of 2500 - 5000 facilties, now, which remains a pretty low count.
There are a number of meal replacement powders at some big chains (Krogers/Ralphs/King Soopers and Amazon at least):
"Raw Organic Meal" by Garden of Life
"All-in-One Nutritional Shake" by Vega One
I can't vouch for whether they "know what the hell they are doing" but I like the quality and really like the lack of sugar/carbs. A big problem though is they are low protein and calorie count so you still need to search for those.
But as a side note, and speaking for myself, I like Mealsquares better than any of the powders.
> THE ancient holy town of Lalibela, perched some 2,500 metres above sea-level in Ethiopia’s northern highlands, boasts some of the clearest night skies imaginable.
When I lived in Ethiopia (Haile Selassie was still emperor so it's been a while) there were many nights of the year where the starlight was bright enough you could walk around without a flashlight. Nights with a full moon almost felt like daylight. You could see stars at the horizon.
