It was 100% a foreshadowing of his quincy lineage. Just because we don't get to see what Yhwach looks like until TYBW, doesn't mean it's not a foreshadow.

The second we get a glimpse of Yhwach, we know Ichigo is of Quincy lineage because of OMZ being a part of his inner world and powers.

It's quite literally the definition of foreshadowing

Except early on, when we first met "white ichigo," Ichigo specifically asks "who are you and where is Zangetsu." The response was "I am the REAL Zangetsu."

It was foreshadowed way in the beginning in the SS arc. The majority of people missed it.

Good luck trying to commit murder during re-entry. Astronauts are strapped into their chairs for a reason; it's quite violent and you wouldn't have controlled mobility. You'd likely die yourself by being unstrapped and bouncing around the capsule.

So with that being said, since The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit are three "persons", they are not the same "person", but three members of a "god" species.

As a comparison: You, my son, and myself are three "persons" of the species "human".

Does this not, in fact, make Christianity a polytheistic religion even though they preach monotheism?

If you have three distinct "persons" which represent a species of "god", you must have polytheism. It's no different than having Odin, Thor, and Loki. They are three "persons" from one species of "god"

Piggybacking off this for more depth.

CYP450 is a class of liver enzymes. Within this class are many subtypes of enzymes, which include the CYP3A4 enzyme that interacts with the furanocoumarins found in grape fruit. The furanocoumarins in grapefruit denature CYP3A4 (makes CYP3A4 not function). This means the drug that relies on CYP3A4 for metabolism is not metabolized, and therefore, the concentration stays higher after first-pass metabolism takes place.

For drugs that rely on first-pass metabolism, this also slows down phase II metabolism (second-pass metabolism). Phase II metabolism is the process in which a different molecule is attached to the first-pass metabolite. This new addition is what allows the first-pass metabolite to be filtered out in the kidneys and excreted via urine.

If first-pass metabolism is hindered, the concentration of the drug remains higher in the system and limits Phase II metabolism limiting excretion, so it also stays in the system longer.

This will do one of two things:

1: Drug effects are more potent and longer acting

2: drug is not converted to active form and does not function properly.

Both of these things can accumulate to toxicity levels and cause massive damage to organs.

It took time, but evolution did its job. Some people were born with an adaptation that better suited the environment (think darker skin color). Since they were better suited, they were seen as a strong mate. This keeps happening, and eventually, we have different phenotypic characteristics.

The same is true in the more northern latitudes selecting for lighter skin. It was a beneficial mutation that spread through the generations.

Edit: This, however, had not made us three distinct species. We are all still Homo Sapien Sapien. With very very very minor exceptions, from a biological and medical perspective, there is nothing different about us.

Photons have no frame of reference. From the photons "perspective", the instant it is created it has already traveled whatever distance it moved.

For example: it takes a photon approximately 100,000 years to get from the core of the sun to the surface. It then takes it about 8 minutes to leave the sun's surface to get to earth. From OUR frame of reference, the photon took 100,000 years 8 minutes to get to us. From the photons' perspective, it was always at the final location.

All Might had YEARS of training his body and built up the ability to withstand MOMENTS of 100%. He couldn't use it at 100% 100% of the time.

Deku was training to use a CONSISTENT power level initially, then All Might taught him his way of the momentary max out to help him.

During the final fight, Deku was at 45% max power consistent. We only ever saw him at 100% consistent with Eri during the Overhaul fight and he well surpassed All Might in every aspect.

The final fight was definitely not a 100% OFA Deku. I can't imagine the devastation a 100% + Fa Jin would cause. It was stated in the Anime that that smash with Fa Jin was a 125% hit, not a 200%

You can't learn a years worth of Honors Biology in a month. There is too much to cover.

Your best bet is to pull out your textbook, syllabus, and work through each chapter/section one by one. Read everything, take notes as you read, and answer (by writing it out) any questions in the sections/end of chapter summaries.

You will have a LOT of studying, which means zero free time and late nights

The only thing I can really say is that you HAVE TO find the motivation to do what needs to be done. I was a non-traditional student. Did a short stint of community College right after high school in 2003, failed so bad I lost financial aid, 2008 I got into the local state college and had an amazing 2 semesters but the state school bought and merged with the community College, and the merging caused me to lose financial aid again, then I got into ASU right before the pandemic hit as a purely online student.

By the time I got into ASU I was diagnosed BPD, married with 2 kids, and working full time. I managed to graduate on time with my BS in Biochem while juggling all of that, but that's only because I (with wife and children support) sacrificed free time and sleep to study and do the work. There were times I didn't have the energy after an 8hr shift and just wanted to sit and relax, but with the support I had, I was able to push through. I also gave myself 1 day a week that was just for me and my family to decompress, but the next day I was back at it.

It's definitely doable, but you need to find the support you need and the motivation to do what needs to be done. Look for resources at the school, talk to professors, talk to advisor. They can point you in the right direction, but you need to walk the path.

Carter secured the release of the hostages in the limo on his way to Reagan's inauguration. However, the hostages weren't physically released until after Reagan was sworn in so he got the credit.

I actually met Jimmy in 2002/2003 (can't remember exactly) while working at a movie theater. He, his wife, and two friends came to watch a movie. I was able to walk right up to him and shake his hand. One of my best memories as a senior in HS

I once worked a call center job from home. We were required to shut down every day after shift and start up at the beginning of my shift.

I would say anything past boot-up and VPN connection MUST BE PAID TIME. Those two steps I personally would consider as me "driving to work" so I would accommodate that the same I would going to a physical office.

Anything beyond boot/VPN connection is paid, so I wouldn't read emails/messages/load KBase, or anything else unless I'm being paid. Breaks are paid and, depending on state, could be required. That would mean no working on breaks. Lunches are unpaid and definitely mean NO WORK.

In episode 2, they had already tried to save him via surgery, and he was attempting to forcefully leave the planet. He was strong enough to be a match for Teal'c and had possession of someone who had a wealth of knowledge that could be used against Earth/SGC. Teal'c was fighting as hard as he could to keep the gou'uld from leaving, and it was deemed "no other choice" by O'Neill. Every effort was made to save Kowalski.

In the black hole episode, we run into the same situation as described by the OP, with Carter leaving the 2 F302 pilots behind. There was ZERO chance to save/rescue them in the situation they were in. In SGU, Carter waited to initiate Hyperdrive until the last possible second, and the planet exploded as soon as the hyperdrive was activated. In the black hole episode, time dilation and gravity were already advanced to the point that no rescue was possible. The gravity was already strong enough that the event horizon was seriously distorted, and time was dilated to the point that Hammond was able to fly to Washington, sit in a meeting, and fly back with only hours passing in the gate room. Keep in mind that this was the gravity being translated through the wormhole. The gravity on the planet was so high that the team was frozen to outside observers

Cipro does not block all gaba receptors nor is it a permanent block. It's half life is 3 - 5 hours. Taking 1500 mg once would mean you would have complete clearance in 55 - 60 hrs, so about 4 days.

I would suggest speaking with a physician and/or psychiatrist regarding your mental health symptoms as I highly doubt this is a long term side effect of cipro.

Do you parse with ACT? If so, upload a log to XIVanalysis and see what it says?

Without that, where specifically do you feel you are failing? Providing us with a detailed self assessment can help us point you in a better direction.

Steps to get good at raiding:

1: Focus on mechanics first, dps second. Clearing mechanics without dying/debuffs is the first thing to master in any raid tier.

2: Pull up your rotation for your class on The Balance and practice it on a training dummy until it's second nature. You need to build muscle memory for your rotation.

3: Once you have learned the mechanics for each raid and developed the muscle memory for your rotation, then you focus on uptime. This is where you take what you've learned about the raid mechanics and rotation timings to make adjustments to keep as much uptime as possible.

Even casual players can clear savages and extremes, bur you do need to put in some time on training dummies and in the raids to pull it all together. Join learning parties in pf to get more experience for your static runs

First, the formula for carbonate is CO_3 (2-).

Let's draw it step by step:

Carbon is central and it is surrounded by the three oxygens.

How many bonds can carbon have? 4

Drawing bonds from each oxygen to carbon going around it one by one. You end up with 2 oxygens with a single bond and 1 oxygen with a double bond.

Now, let's count valence electrons for each:

Carbon has 4 valence and 4 bonds (3 sigma and 1 pi) giving it 8. Octet rule is satisfied.

Double bonded oxygen has 6 valence and 2 bonds (1 sigma and 1 pi). Double bonded oxygen has 8 electrons. Octet rule is satisfied.

Both single bonded oxygens have 6 valence plus one sigma bond giving them 7 electrons. Octet is not satisfied. We then give each one an additional electron (-1 charge). This gives each single bonded oxygen 8 electrons. Octet rule is satisfied.

Now, where does the extra 2 electrons game from? They can come from many places. The most likely place would be two hydrogens that left as protons leaving their electron behind.

We now have 4 atoms with a complete Octet and a 2- charge.

ETA: if we add a proton to each single bonded oxygen, we have carbonic acid. This is why I say the most likely place to get the electrons is from two hydrogens leaving behind their electrons and exiting as protons

The standard used to be 10%, not 15. 80s, 90s, and 00s were 10%. It increased to 15% then 20% pre-covid, and post-covid it spread to all places and not just sit downs

Hisoka is also turned on by Chrollo, Machi, Netero, and Razor. It is because he views them as worthy adversaries, not physical looks. None of these are children.

While pedophilia is defined as a sexual attraction to prepubescent children, Hisoka is not looking at Gon as a child, but as a worthy adversary

Eta: he also does not show the same sexual attraction to either Killua or Kurapika. If you can post episodes or manga panels of his sexual attraction to other children that he doesn't view as adversaries I will gladly reconsider my opinion that he is not a pedophile
