<---wonder if Lorie is going somewhere soon?
<---had computer issues at home
<---hates when that happens
<---has a 4 day weekend starting tomorrow!
<---skips out of thread while singing The horn on the bus goes beep, beep, beep
 
<--- says hi to Lorie, Catherine and Robin
<--- is madly jealous of Lorie's trip to Aruba
<--- thinks there's lots of people having time off at the moment
<--- hopes Robin's computer issues are solved now
<--- just made first attempt at Hi-Lo Knockout - yikes! Was practically just walking by the time <--- gave up after combo 4!
<--- is now going to read some interesting engineering stuff (emily - where are you when you're needed?!!!)
 
<-- waves Good Morning to Lorie, Catherine, Robin and Ronne
<-- is excited for Lorie and hopes she has a fantastic vacay
<-- will miss Lorie though x(
<-- hopes Catherine enjoys her day off today and wonders what Catherine will be doing with all that free time today :p
<-- is glad Robin's computer is working again
<-- sounds like Ronne has an exciting afternoon reading all that engineering stuff
<-- wonders why Ronne needs to read engineering stuff
<-- is off with the poochies training with Coach Sean for the first time
<-- have a fantabulous day
 
<--Waves good Morning to Lorie,Catherine,Robin,Ronne and all who follows
<--is excited for Lorie's Aruba vaction!!
<--is also excited for Robins four day weekend
<--Waves to Miss Catherine and hope she's having a fabulous day!
<--high fives Ronne for her first attempt at Hi-Lo
<--is taking a recovery week so has no kick-butt workout to report in:-(
<--is off to skip around cathe land a bit and drink some coffee


ETA
<--pops back in to waves to Carola and hopes she has fun with coach sean!!!
 
<--- tells Carola that <--- is a freelance editor working on secondary school subjects so gets to read a whole range of weird and wonderful stuff! this morning <--- has done PE, Acting, Public Services and Engineering!
<--- thinks Amelia is vvv sensible taking a rest week
<--- has one planned for the week after next
<--- thinks coffee sounds like an excellent idea! :7
 
<--thinks Ronne has a very cool job!
<--is loving her recovery week,no stress of when and what workout to do:)
<--will get back to it on monday:)
<--is off to walk her dog
<--forgot to mention that <--was pretty down yesterday:-(
<--didn't get the intership that<--was hoping for so<--took it kinda hard(thought she had nailed it and also thought they REALLY needed help...<--thinks that doctors office isn't very organized and wouldn't want to work there anyway;-))
<--will continue on her quest for a job
<--is getting some more ink for her printer today for resumes
<--waves to all and skips out of thread!
 
<---waves good morning to all :)
<---is LOL at today's song
<---feels like <--- is in kindergarten all over again :p
<---did 4DS KB/BC cardio this morning and was thoroughly winded from it :)
<---can't believe it's only 2 weeks til the Road Trip :D
<---can't believe Lorie went to sleep at 6:30 last night!
<---is glad she's feeling well-rested now
<---is so jealous of Catherine's vacation - <--- hopes she enjoys every minute!
<---is sorry Robin has computer problems, but is glad she gets a 4 day weekend
<---says to Ronne "Did someone say interesting engineering stuff???" ;)
<---is always available for engineering consultations!
<---hopes Carola has a wonderful date with Coach Sean :D
<---has a date with him on Saturday
<---hopes Amelia is enjoying her recovery week
<---probably will need one of those soon
<---is so sorry Amelia didn't get the internship she wanted ((((hugs))))
<---thinks that just means something better is on its way
<---says "When one door closes, another one opens" :)
<---hopes everyone is having a lovely Thursday
<---will try to bbl!
 
<-- is really sorry Amelia didn't get the internship - <--- is sure she will find something just right for her!
<--- asks Emily if the words 'sagging' 'hogging' and 'contraflexure' mean anything? <---'s vocabulary is expanding by the minute!!!
 
<---tells Ronne, yes, they mean something... but <--- doesn't know what! :p ;)
<---seriously though... it depends on the context... <--- would be interested to see the sentences they're used in :)
 
<--- tells everyone to look away now: serious engineering talk for Emily!:

A shear force diagram gives an indication of where the bending moment is likely to be a maximum. A bending moment diagram can supply two pieces of information. It can confirm the position and value of the maximum bending moment and it can also the locate points of contraflexure. Depending on the loading and positions of the supports, the curvature of a beam may be sagging or hogging. Sagging occurs between supports and hogging occurs over a support in cases where the loads overhang. At a point of contraflexure the curvature of a beam changes from sagging to hogging or vice-versa, and the bending moment here is found to be zero. This may be of importance to the designer because it indicates that the bending stress at this point will also be zero. In cases where a beam is to be made up of sections welded or bolted together, points of contraflexure are ideal positions for the joints.

<--- tells Emily this is for 17/18 yr old students doing a general engineering qualification pre-university
 
<--- shakes self awake after reading Ronne's engineering blurb
<--- waves to all
<--- sends happy job hunting vibes to Amelia and is sorry she didn't get the internship
<--- thanks Catherine SO MUCH for the lovely card:)
<--- wonders where Liann is?
 
<---feels completely geeky, but tells Ronne, yes that makes complete sense to <---
<---says that's basic mechanics - core principals for almost any engineer (except perhaps electrical and chemical engineers)
<---thinks "sagging" and "hogging" are likely British terms, as <--- has never heard them before, but <--- understands completely :)
 
<-- is back from first Cardio Coach training and is a sweaty mess
<-- OMG what a great workout
<-- did volume 7 and thought <-- would throw up by the time the last minute of challenge 3 came - but pushed through it without embarrassing illness
<-- says the HIIT dogs are pretty pooped too :7
<-- is :eek: :eek: :eek: about Ronne's engineering blurb
<-- admires Ronne even more now <-- didn't have the faintest idea what was talked about
<-- is sorry about Amelia's internship but is sure there are bigger and better things in store for Amelia soon
<-- wonders what date (volume :p ) Evily has with Coach Sean
<-- is happy to see Shelley
<-- tells Shelley that Liann is in Idaho
<-- is itching again despite of Buzz Off spray, didn't get bit on bare skin with spray on, the little suckers bit right through the clothes where <-- didn't spray
<-- got bit right on the butt :eek: :eek: and has a huge bump
<-- off to jump in the shower
 
<-- says understands "sagging" and "hogging" but those are not technical / engineering terms in <-- 's book :7 :+ :p }(
 
-checks in arrowlessly
-is packing up and moving on to seattle this morning
-just finished a book called the elements of style by wendy wasserstein
-will leave it behind unless robin or anyone else wants
-says check google or amazon and lemme know
 
<---can't find Nancy's book on Amazon?
<---tells her to leave it for someone to enjoy
<---hopes Nancy is loving her trip
<---sends a hug to Amelia and tells her the doctor's office is crazy
<---understands the engineering concept and thinks she is hogging
 
<--waves from work
<--has been busy
<--tells Shelley she is very welcome and hopes she is better
<--agrees with Robin that the doctor's office is crazy for not wanting Amelia
<--waves to FN!!
<--wonders if Carol is still a sweaty mess?
<--is excited for all of the July Road Trippers
<--is sorry <-- won't get to see them :(
<--back to work
