I don’t know how many turned in a score. The idea that only 1/3rd did seems off though. But I was talking about the scores for the incoming class. That incoming class had the highest scores ever. For those that did use scores, anyway. My impression was more did than not. But would definitely change my mind if I saw actual numbers saying otherwise.

ETA. My main takewaway/point is that it’s harder overall to get into LSU than in the past. Because there’s 2x the competition for the same number of spots. And that my kid needed to take the ACT again :lol: y’all feel free to have yours apply wholistically.

No clue. But a deeper pool is a deeper pool. And the average score has increased quite a bit. Gpa as well.

went for a few weeks several years back, when I was young enough to bounce around for weeks in a backpack. a lot of this could be vary well dated info, but we went west from Delhi to Jodhpur, Jaisalmer, Amritsar to the Sihk golden temple, and up to Dharamsala. the blue city and Mehrangarh in Jodhpur were amazing, but there wasn't much to the town itself. but I actually kinda liked that. the golden temple was cool to go to. but Dharamsala was the highlight for me. being in the 60s/70s after being in the desert heat was great in and of itself, but that town was beautiful. and it is so different from everything else in India with the Tibetan culture of it that it was nice to break it up a bit. sat with young monks, just shooting the shite, waiting for the Dali Lama to come back from a trip abroad. Would go back there in a heartbeat.

I had been thinking that it is a place best visited while you're young and moldable. seeing a culture so vastly different can shift your perspective some. that's harder to do once you've aged and calcified. but I rewatched the Darjeeling Limited the other day, and I agree with the poster above, once you've been, you kinda want to go back. we saw so little of it. and I agree with him again in that it is almost overwhelming in that it is everything at the same time and constantly in your face bombarding you. nonstop color and noise and movement. the most squalid poverty and horror and the most beautiful things and history all in the same field of view. it's definitely unique

that's just some of the first page of a google search. that's all the time I will spend, especially since it will be explained away, anyway. but that's probably more a PT topic and I don't want to derail this thread

expect it was starvation and illness

Yeah. Probably. But anyone who knows why starvation was common during that time will
still scoff at / be skeptical about that being tossed away as an explanation.”Famine” was not really a thing that was accurate from an agricultural output POV for the island.

Archimedes field final

This is the match where they clinched the win on their field. They are 8044. It looks like chaos with no context :lol: but they get points for putting the balls in the nets, and pvc on the pipes, then hanging on the cages at the end. Again, first 15 seconds are the bots on their own controlled by programming only. Below is a link to their page from all season. For worlds it’s archimedes and Einstein is the finals. Each match has a video for it.

last fall or winter, sadly, if you're talking bulbs. who knows, you may get lucky and get some quick growth, depending on where you are. most of the bags will say the best time to plant them, or if you're getting them from a nursery, they should be able to tell you. if you mean already flowering ones from the store, they can go in now and will likely return next year.
