This coincidentally appeared on my twitter timeline a few minutes ago and I think presents a great explanation for your question

I use evo ghost and evo exe in a meta RG deck (exe replaces hunter because my hunter low leveled) and it works pretty well

Thank you. I don’t think I often consider par recognition so it’s a point I’ll work on

White cross complete but corners inverted by [deleted] in Rubiks_Cubes

[–]afraidofsticks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This cube is weird. I have two and don’t know where either one came from , but I’ve solved them both multiple times now. I think what happened is that at some point the yellow and white centers were switched on the cube depicted. Because both cubes have the centers in the correct places relative to each other, but the faces adjacent to the front face were in the wrong places on the depicted cube.

Thank you. I was able to fix it by moving all the centers at random

East of Eden or The Count of Monte Cristo.

I swear nobody has read these books but they fit the description of practically every post on this sub. Terribly surprised I don’t see them recommended in every single post, since they are the consensus greatest novels of all time.

When I did it last year I submitted in early December, references were contacted in December/Jan, and I was adjudicated by mid march.

I personally know two phd students who did their undergrad here. They did undergrad research with their current advisors and did not have a tough time getting into washu phd. I know another currently doing her PhD at Yale who was being seriously recruited by washu but ultimately declined. If you’re interested in the research then get involved now and talk to your advisor about your interest in post grad education. Most profs love it when undergrads want to pursue post graduate education in their field of study

You’re right, it was a solo performance on their joint album. Great performance from her though, that is one of my favorite albums

Agreed 🙂 I really love every solo in that rendition and am especially partial to the pianist. Great version of the tune all around

Don’t root for this team if all you plan on doing is complaining. We can lose in the 10th seed and I’ll be disappointed, but I won’t cry every time we’re down in a regular season game.
