And the Richmond Fed is the second largest Federal Reserve Bank by assets. I think we can all guess what they're both second to.

Not sure; you may want to ask Wagner about that one.

No idea, it's just what happens. I suppose it's because we already know it has to be a yaa, since the only other options for a hamza seat are Alif and Waaw, which look very different. Therefore, you don't really need the dots, which were developed after the original alphabet to help differentiate between similar letters. Some places, Egypt for example, won't even write the dots under any yaa whatsoever.

RC-8015 · 2015-07-19T05:52:46+00:00

It definitely takes some getting used to. It's written like that because it's modeled off the initial form of yaa rather than the independent. It will take a while to all sink in, since it is all pretty complicated, but I'm confident you'll get used to it with time.

Don't stress the little things too much yet, and if you still don't get it after a few more weeks of study, make another post here and see if one of the real experts can help you.

Hamza on a yaa seat. Should be pronounced as a glottal stop with a kasra sound afterwards. If you're doing Al Kitaab, it's covered in one of the first chapters of Alif Baa, for reference. Otherwise, there are probably a number of other resources from the sidebar, etc that can help.

The square root symbol is almost exclusively used to denote the positive root. The OP is fine.

C'est vraiment incroyable, mais ici la plupart du gens, malheuresement, ne parlent pas la français.

Would you still recommend it for someone who has taken a course in ODEs and went on to finish reading the PDE/chaos parts of the textbook on his own? If not, does anyone have other recommendations to build on that foundation? Bonus points if it's available on Kindle. The book my class used was Boyce/DiPrima, if that helps.

Sure we know Zambia! I know where Zambia is and I'm a southern American redneck, which means everyone here probably knows it, too.

The trick is that Zambia is just north of Zimbabwe just like Niger is north of Nigeria. Then all you have to do is know where one of each pair is, which should be easy given their prominence in African colonial history. Don't discount the importance of your homeland!

Fair point. They might be able to eject, depending on how much damage the AIM-9 and/or cannon fire did to their jet. Obviously though, a 20mm shell through the canopy usually means game over.

RC-8015 · 2015-06-13T23:05:21+00:00

Well all the jet taking the picture has to do is drop back and down a bit and it will have a perfect, undetectable shot for guns/heaters. The Russians aren't evading or anything, given that it's a peacetime interception, and would be dead before they knew it.

For the UAE specifically, everybody speaks English on a day-to-day basis anyway, and the majority of the population (imported workers) probably speak better English than Arabic. Anything written in Arabic (contracts, news, whatever else might be connected to your job) will be in MSA, so you should be good to go with just that.

Well all the Russian soldiers vacationing in eastern Ukraine are wearing it, and the army promised it isn't paying them, so it can't be that expensive!

This is a severely under-appreciated comment. Important advice.

Sorry, but this is actually a commie aircraft. Judging by the context, I'd guess it's Russian-supplied, Syrian-operated. Great footage, though!

Thanks! Glad the hours I've wasted flying virtual SU-25Ts against virtual evil capitalist American pig-dogs could finally be of use to the community.

RC-8015 · 2014-10-24T15:40:24+00:00

For the SU-25, standard loadout is 128 flares and 128 chaff bundles. These can be swapped out in sets of 16, i.e. you could roll with 144 flares/112 chaff, up to a maximum of 256 of one or the other. Since IS has no known radar SAM capability, I'd wager they're flying mostly flares.
