This is part of common core math

Making Tens (and Hundreds): Composing and decomposing: Students learn to break down numbers to make friendly numbers like 10 or 100, which are easier to add. Example: To add 8 + 5, they might see that 8 needs 2 to make 10. They could take 2 from the 5, leaving 3. Then, they add 8 + 2 = 10, and 10 + 3 = 13.

They are teaching new students this

The official colors of the U.S. Army are black and gold. Black symbolizes knowledge and jurisprudence, while gold represents achievement and honor.

Cowlick doesn't go against what the post is saying

Their hair can lay in any direction at anytime

It's not saying that you can make their hair all perfect in any direction.

I can see where I was confusing.

School district was rezoned. Not sending busses to my area. He'd have to switch schools for 8th grade to get a bus or I'll have to find a way of transportation.

I walked a mile to my elementary school. Had to walk a block or two for my middle school bus.

On the other hand, found out yesterday, my step son's school bus will no longer able to pick him up at my house next year after 2 years of riding the bus. Neat

It is probably not that the casino was run poorly

It's probably because Dump used it as a personal piggy bank.

You invest 1M in my casino. I go launder that money. I file for bankruptcy. You get nothing, I get my reputation tarnished and 1M. Rinse and repeat.

Insulation on the dishwasher is mostly for noise and stopping moisture or heat from damaging surrounding cabinets.

The dishwasher is using new water or heating water. It is not designed to keep the same water hot for an hour plus.

The whole back of the dishwasher is a tiny piece of plastic. Not insulated at all. Some fancy ones now put a little insulation on back.

But the idea isn't to keep heat trapped to wash dishes, but to keep heat from being released and damaging things.

24" on-center wall studs aren't uncommon in building practices today

Most residential interior walls are 16"

If their house is single-story, then 24" would fit in a lot of local building codes.

2.3 billion dollars in physical currency

21.8 trillion dollars in total currency

8.5 trillion dollars in debt owned by foreign countries

36 trillion dollars in debt total

Foreign entities are promised half the current total supply of USD

Oh it would be an absolute mess

Last state out has to pay the national debt!

US holds like half the debt of the world. That would be a really interesting scenario.

Funny thing is cars still use right and left (atleast in US) often. Somethings driver vs passenger side. Driver vs passenger doesn't work everywhere for every car in the world like it does with boats.

What also might be funny is driver vs passenger could be seen like port and starboard in the future if we get self driving cars. There would be no designated driver side of a car, and every side is a passenger. Just like boats nowadays can port on either side because there are no steering oars needed.
