Water the plants?
Vdara is a building that is part of the Wynn. I don't think I've seen it during the day. Another good one in Vegas is the Luxor. It's the pyramid. When the sun comes up the reflected light is aimed right at our airport. The pilots were complaining as it was being built. Didn't do any good. At certain times of the day the reflection is blinding. From east, south and west. At times we can see the light beam coming out of the top here in Pahrump. It's about 60 miles away as the crow flies.
It'll play better with the correct size spindle bush. Maybe you can find a second hand bush on EBay. Your tracking is probably off slightly with that size hole. The DeWALTs produced some great albums.

They produced some cutting edge stuff…
I see that at every single hospital that I visit.
Pennsylvania used to have this sort of sign on the turnpike but it listed fines rather than points. I had a coworker that used exactly the logic described. His basic assumption was that we was absolutely NOT going to drive the speed limit so he might as well drive over 80 mph because it was "only $20 more."
It grinds on my nerves.

I'd have thought osmium would be alright.
Contact of the vapor with skin can cause dermatitis, and direct contact with the solid can lead to severe irritation and burns. Osmium tetroxide is a strong oxidizer that will sublime (pass directly from solid to vapor and back to solid) readily at room temperature and significantly when refrigerated.

I dunno. I kinda found their music abrasive.

I just want to lick uranium…
Ps I think I’d be fine as long as I don’t make a habit of it*
*I was unable to find a study on whether uranium’s addictive (this is apparently the only uranium study the Cold War US government didn’t do) so I guess I’ll have to hope not…

I love some of the old terminology:
Consumption = tuberculosis
Dropsy = congestive heart failure
Quinsie = peritonsillar abscess
And someone died of piles

That is on of the most important documents in history, it was the first record of deaths!! Why it’s in a lol thread I don’t know…
A cute little story on uranium and the dosimeter dog tags.
My father was a mobility sergeant in the air force. He was required to wear the dosimeter tag on his chain along with the dog tags.
No big deal there. The problem arose when he went back to his grand dads ranch in New Mexico for a visit. The ranch also had a working uranium mine on it in the Grants District up around the Chaco Canyon area.
While there he went to visit a few of his buddies in the mine, thought nothing of it and threw his shirt along with his tags (and dosimeter) in a metal bucket.
Returning home he continued to wear the tags and dosimeter as normal.
Once he turned the dosimeter in for the required developing things got real interesting. The dosimeter was reading that he had received a lethal dose of radiation and all hell was breaking out with the authorities trying to track down where the dosage had come from. All this is happening BEFORE they inquire to the possible exposure to my dad.
Once they finally did he thought about it and recalled putting them in that metal bucket, in an active uranium mine.
The SR-71 was originally the RS-71 as in Recon/Strike. The B-70 was to be the RS-70. President Johnson misspoke calling the backbird the SR-71.

The goofy manners of some of the deaths. 13 of them are because of "planet." It's a reference to bad luck due to astrology if Carl Sagan was right about this.
