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...

Lenormand Cards Reading - An Ancient Cartomancy almost forgot

  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...

Super Car of the Famous People

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...

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...

The subtle art of (not) understanding Gen Z

  The subtle art of (not) understanding Gen Z Cayetana Hurtado Follow Sep 1, 2019  · 19 min read Captured by Hugh Scott and Christopher Simmonds for Gucci’s eyewear advertising campaign. As a kid I used to like summer homework — did I really? Well, I like to think of my young me as a disciplined student with perfect calligraphy after a long summer of practice. Some habits can’t be lost and, this summer around, I spent some time trying to better understand Gen Z. ‘Gen What?’ iGen, Tech Gen, Digital Natives, True Gen, Post-Millenials, Memelords, LitGen, Memennials, Generation Snap, the Hopeful Generation, the Anxious Generation, Generation Fix-It, the Cleaner-Uppers, the Last Generation, the Final Generation… You name it. The Sisu Generation [1]  might be one of my faves, but let’s stick to Gen Z. Gen Z refers to the  people born from 1995 to 2010 . I’ve always thought that trying to give common characteristics to a bunch of very different people born in a pa...

The 3 Most Critical Fundamental Metrics For Stock Investors

By
In today's online, computer-driven investing world, fundamental analysis often plays second fiddle to technical analysis when it comes to choosing stock market investments. While technical analysis has its place in stock picking, it's really only one piece of the puzzle. The most successful investors use a combination of both types of analysis to make investing decisions. What Is Fundamental Analysis? Fundamental analysis can be defined as studying any  stock market data  other than a stock's price movement. It can be applied to the entire market or broken down for individual companies. For the purposes of this article, I will focus on fundamental analysis as it is applied to corporations and not to the overall stock market. Fundamental analysts sift through documents like balance sheets, financial statements, earnings reports, breaking news, management backgrounds, and financial data related to the firm's competitors. With this data in hand, fundamental analysts use ce...

Which warrior was the most dangerous in single combat in the history of the world? - Qual Foi o maior guerreiro em combate individual da Historia ?!

By
After researching this topic in depth for quite some time, I have developed the opinion that the single greatest warrior to ever live is  Miyamoto Musashi . The Beginning In a quite village southwest of Edo (Tokyo), Musashi was raised by his father until the age of seven, when his father either died or abandoned him for unknown reasons. Due to the fact that his mother was dead, a young Musashi was left in the care of his uncle. It is still uncertain how Musashi came to become a student of the art of Kendo but due to his large size and aggressive nature, he excelled in his studies of the sword, practicing relentlessly throughout his late childhood. This practice was put into effect when Musashi was just 13. Duel with Arima Kihei It is recorded that upon reaching his first teenage year, Musashi sought out and slew a Samurai student of the Shinto Ryu school of military arts - Arima Kihei. At the time of the duel, Kihei is said to have been in his 30s and was highly skilled with both t...
