Peeling an egg without that membrane sticking to the surface of the egg

Hard-boiled the egg how you wish. Now, the next step is key. Cool the egg down slower than the heat rate used to cook the egg.

So this method is rooted in 2 basic principles of science; heating & cooling. The basis is a gradual cooling period will allow the heat to escape the center of the egg in a more continuous fashion. A quite large temp shock will cause the outermost layer to endure more stress as it transfers heat too quickly to the ambient coolant. Over time, that membrane will soften up.

I've read other hints and tricks from other websites and to me, it all seemed a bit excessive. The only thing I haven't experimented yet is the age of the egg. But since the age is subjective depending on factors like how long was the carton sitting at the store shelves, I would use the expiration date as a demarcator. Please let me know how this goes. Comments?

The Definition of Money

Money has macro and micro facets which are both inter-related.

Macro, money is an attempt at representation of the summation of goods/services in the economy, whether current or future.

Micro, money is trust in future goods/services (conveyed thru a medium like a customer giving their "private" credit account # to a store for a good or service)

*If the finance institutions improperly guesstimate currency supply, there's less trust in the money. If the money medium is difficult to use, it affects the economy as a whole.

The Constant Human Population Excess Question

The greatest danger from human population growth is the extinction of species; mainly around the rainforests for it's diversity.

The mitigating steps humans can take on it's quest for life quality is:
1) Domicile's in a vertical plane. We can build taller buildings faster than we can birth a new generation.
2) Food production innovation. Grow food in less space by efficiency.
3) Design economic structures where the opportunity index gives more incentive for growing populations to preserve our precious ecosystems, especially subtropical ones.

Special Forces Classification

Here's my understanding of the special forces in the US:

1) Delta Force: the creme of the US Army. Half-spy, half-soldier. Operates clandestine operations. Recruits from Green Berets + Army Rangers

2) Navy Seals: sea-warrior. Best in water-oriented warfare.

3) Marine Force-Recon: does similar missions to Seals but goes farther inland.

4) Green Berets: non-clandestine premier soldier. Fluent in foreign language. Interfaces with local groups to execute subversive missions against current occupational gov'ts.

5) Army Ranger: premier light-infantry specialists. Used in greater numbers to execute small-scale/efficient combat scenarios. May back up Delta Force/Green Beret units.

--
6) Marine: the navy's "sea" soldier. Full-fledge operational force for large-scale campaigns, usually around large bodies of water.

7) Airborne: the army's behind the lines soldier. Full-fledge operational force to fight in large campaigns w.o direct line to logistics.

3 places where facing sun is bad

1) asteroids coming from the sun's direction
2) northern force facing southern force in battle
3) batter & catcher facing a pitcher with sun behind a fastball

Right-Handedness (adenda ao "eu preciso de um médico para isso um")

a maioria da população vive no hemisfério norte. É por isso que o mundo está sendo etnocêntrica, dizendo que o Pólo Norte fica na parte de cima (quando ele poderia muito facilmente, mas inverso - dualidade do universo)

Por isso, quando o dia 1 pop atende uma menor (90% destros).

Mas por que razão Right-Handed no hemisfério norte?

Raios de Sol vêm do sul. Há uma desvantagem da caça ou enfrentando um adversário contra o sol que esterilizam os precisa ser capaz de atirar mais longe uma rocha ou uma lança. Assim, pelo efeito Coriolis, se você atirar direito, a fiação da massa está do seu lado.
