Saiba o que significa um prego 17 x 27.

By
Muito interessante pessoal, jamais imaginei como se media isso! abraços, Ivan Saiba o que significa um prego 17 x 27. A nomenclatura dos pregos é algo bastante desconhecido da maioria das pessoas. Isso ocorre porque há muitos padrões no mercado. Existe uma equivalência aproximada entre elas, mas as usuais estão em Polegadas Inglesas x BWG, JP x LPP e ainda o padrão métrico oficial, mm x mm. Entenda o que significam estas siglas: Polegadas Inglesas: multiplique o número correspondente por 25,4 para ter o comprimento em mm. BWG (Birmingham Wire Gauge) e JP (Jauge de Paris): são tabelas próprias que indicam o diâmetro do prego. LPP (Linhas Por Polegadas Portuguesas): multiplique o número correspondente por 2,3 para ter o comprimento em mm. No Brasil usamos mais o seguinte formato: JP x LPP Onde: JP é o diâmetro, em JDP (Jauge de Paris) LPP é o comprimento, em Linhas de Polegada Portuguesa. 1 JDP = ver tabela abaixo 1 Linha de Polegada Portuguesa: 2,30 mm Conversao de Medi...

When you fit in... you disappear!

By
Image
Today I came across an "abandoned" shirt in my wardrobe! I've used to wear it for the bed night time a couple of times but completely forgot about it: For my surprise, for the first time, I've noticed the quote on the shirt: A Tetris Painting and the Quote: "When You Fit In... You Disappear". Despite a casual shirt and a casual quote, the profundity of this sentence is amazing. If you take the time to reflect on it, we really tend to disappear in the crowd once we so-called "fit in"!  Exactly like when the blocks "fit in" and match the Tetris line. This way it begs us to reconsider... Do we really want to fit in... just to disappear? Or we want to live and follow our unique lives and achieve whichever dreams, goals, and aspirations we look for? Not really worrying with HAVING TO FIT IN part... Despite not being that religious it reminded me of this bible quote:  Revelation 3:16  16 So   because   you are   lukewarm—   neither   hot   nor ...

25 Alan Watts Quotes to Teach You the Transformative Power of InsighsPi

25 Alan Watts Quotes to Teach You the Transformative Power of Insighs Pin A prolific author and speaker, Alan Wilson Watts is credited with the interpretation and introduction of Eastern philosophy to the Western audience. As his mother’s students were children of missionaries to Asia, Watts began to be fascinated by Asian art, literature, and philosophy; so in time, he learned Chinese and started to explore the fundamental beliefs and practices of religions and philosophies of India and East Asia. After a rigorous research in Zen Buddhism, Watts published one of the first books on the topic –  The Way of Zen  – introducing the burgeoning youth culture to it. Due to all the wisdom it embodies, Watts even suggested that Buddhism could be presented and taught as a form of psychotherapy, and not only as a religion. Alan Watts is the author of more than 25 books on various topics such as philosophy, Eastern and Western religion, natural history, semanti...

  An Introduction to Lenormand Cards: Plus Lenormand Card Meaning List AUG 10, 2017 While the main focus of Labyrinthos Academy has always been the Tarot, lately I’ve been experimenting with other practices that have the potential to work alongside those beloved decks of that I hold so dear. One of the more interesting and dynamic combinations I’ve found during these little experiments has been Lenormand Cards. Lately, I’ve been so inspired, that I’ve been working on a  Lenormand deck, which you can start taking a peek at here! What are Lenormand Cards? Tarot and other forms of cartomancy have been around for as long as playing cards themselves have existed - and the history of the whole practice spans well over six centuries. For many decades now, Tarot has been the main focus of those interested in spirituality and self-development. While they were once used for divination, we actually argue here that their most potent use is not in telling the future,  but as a tool fo...

Jay-Z's Mercedes Maybach Exelero Price:  $8 million Featured in his music video "Lost One," this car is  truly one-of-a-kind . Made by Italian car company Stola, it was manufactured only once. It is said to be able to reach 218 mph and can go from 0-62 mph in 4.4 seconds. The Exelero, it would seem, is not one of Jay-Z's 99 problems.   Jay Leno's McLaren F1 Price:  $22 million Of all Leno's vehicles, the  McLaren F1  is certainly one of the most impressive, if only for its price. There were only 106 made. Created by Formula One race-car designer Gordon Murray, the F1 is made of lightweight premium materials such as kevlar, carbon fiber, and titanium and is supposed to be one of the best supercars ever made. Tom Brady's Bugatti Veyron Price:  $3 million Tom Brady has seven Super Bowl wins and a  garage full of impressive cars  that he might have a little more time to drive now that he's retiring from the NFL. Perhaps the most impressive i...

This is Exactly How I Feel = 'I'm so bearish, I'm bullish': BofA says 'maximum liquidity' will push stocks to new all-time highs, but a COVID-19 vaccine will mark the 'big top'

By

By  Matthew Fox    Aug. 7, 2020 Spencer Platt/Getty Images The stock market is set to continue moving higher in 2020, as "maximum liquidity" is all that matters, according to a Bank of America note published on Friday. But under the surface, there's plenty to be bearish about as low yields incite a bubble in stocks just as Main Street enters a recession, BofA said. Investors should expect stocks to keep moving higher in 2020, but 2021 will be bearish as a COVID-19 vaccine is likely to mark the "big top," according to the note. "I'm so bearish, I'm bullish," BofA's Michael Hartnett said in the note. "I'm so bearish, I'm bullish." That's how Bank of America strategist Michael Hartnett summed up his thinking on the markets in a note published on Friday, as the S&P 500 is just 1% away from making new all-time highs just as Main Street enters a recession, according to the note. A "decade-long backdrop" of low-...
