The cost of each candle sold in Russian Orthodox Churches is 1 ruble, and they are sold for 15 rubles each.
That’s 1500% profit.
The only more profitable shit is a heroine - 1600%.

Unique shades of blue, hazel, gray, and amber can typically be found underneath the darker pigment of an eye. The laser surgery brings these underlying shades of color to the forefront, providing patients with lighter eyes.

or

KERATOPIGMENTATION for $12,000​

A femtosecond laser crafts a fine intracorneal tunnel, where a special pigment is introduced.

More colors available than the first type above



but why? Just why?

Does it change a retina pattern?

Does it change a retina pattern?

Don't know... that's way beyond my pay grade and knowledge! (I work for a bank)

Would be cool of it did... could have mine changed (retinal pattern) so I could access top secret gubmint files in the FBIe office by passing the retinal scan security device

The iris isn't the retina, so...probably not.

There are two facilities with a total of four nuclear reactors generating power in Texas

There is a nuclear reactor in the basement of the Zachary building on the Texas A&M campus. There is another one at the end of the runway at Easterwood airport in College Station.

I got to see it operating when I was in junior high. Class field trip. They turned the lights off so we could see the reactor glow down at the bottom of its pool of water.

I've had the unique opportunity to visit the facility several times as well, they used to supply my last employer with specialty liquid radioactive "tracer" we utilized for process diagnostics in the petrochem industry.

Mattress Mack sent his vehicles around to pick up people during Beryl, and brought them back to his store.

He fed 10,000 people in the duration.

I've seen the reactor at the Nuclear Science Center fire up and glow with Cherenkov Radiation where sub atomic particles exceed the speed of light through a medium such as water.

There is only one reactor at TAMU, iirc, the Zachary building has a particle accelerator (which is also a cool tour seeing SUPER THICK doors)

Pad Thai came about because in 1938 the military dictator of Thailand (who had deposed the monarchy a couple of years earlier) decided the country needed a "signature" dish so he chose one that was relatively easy to make and involved inexpensive noodles - a thrifty decision during the early days of WWII in Asia, and a logical choice as severe flooding had wiped out much of that year's rice harvest.

Turns out it's also a damned tasty dish.
