"Naturally," said the Committee's representative, "we will immediately begin providing you with the weaponry which you have been prevented from acquiring under the Treaty of Europa, but it will take some time..."
"No need," said Admiral Higgins-Jones, around the cigar he always smoked when speaking with the Committee, because he knew they regarded it as a sign of barbarianism.
"I... beg your pardon?"
"I said there's no need." The Admiral got to his feet and added, "We'll be in touch." Trailing a haze of cigar smoke behind him, he left the room.
+ + + + +
The Committee was in the midst of a heated but -- they all knew -- ultimately fruitless argument when a functionary stepped in and whispered in the Chairsophont's hearing organ. Xe blinked xyr lower eyes and said, "What?"
The functionary emitted a tiny puff of stress-odor and repeated, loudly enough for the whole Committee to hear, "We have reports that five of the Reaqshonan's forward bases have been destroyed by the humans."
"Destr... how?" one of the Committee members finally said. "We've been attacking those bases for cycles, but the Reaqshonan fleet has always been too strong for us to break through. How did the humans manage it?"
"Rocks, ser. Apparently they took several large asteroids, put Tenkat-Bylor engines on them, accelerated them up to about 0.1 c and aimed them at the bases from outside their respective systems. Nothing the Reaqshonan had could stop them." Per paused. "Nothing we have could stop such an attack either."
"How did the humans even think of such a thing?" someone finally asked.
The functionary bobbed its limbs to indicate uncertainty. "We don't know. Our analysts say it's a simple enough idea, and it's obvious in retrospect, but no civilized being would conceive of such a thing. A specialist on human history did some research and reported that human fiction has been discussing such weapons for more than three centuries, back long before they'd even left their own atmosphere."
There was a long silence. Finally, the Chairsophont muttered quietly to xemself, "What have we done?"
+ + + + +
The Chairsophont of the Committee came into the office of the Pan-Admiral of the Committee's fleet, at aers request. After the barest minimum of ritual courtesy, xe asked, "What is it now? I thought we were winning the war?"
"We are," said the Pan-Admiral. "Or rather, the humans are winning it while we watch, mostly. Actually, it's possible that we've won. That's what I asked you to see me about. The problem has become more diplomatic than military at this point."
"Explain?"
"Well, we believe the Reaqshonan wish to surrender. But it's not clear anymore who on their side has the authority to do so."
"Not clear...? Surely their High Command --"
"That's the problem, ser. The High Command no longer exists. It was wiped out, along with the Reaqshonan home system, about twelve centums ago."
The Chairsophont froze. "More rocks?"
"No, this time they did something new. You know that when a ship travels by hyperspace shunt, there's a momentary connection between the starting and ending locations?"
"Obviously, that's the point. But how...?"
"Well, it turns out that if two ships shunt simultaneously from the same location, the two endpoints are momentarily connected as well."
"So?"
"So the humans built two automated ships. One shunted to somewhere inside the Reaqshonan home system star. The other one shunted to a hypermassive black hole."
The Chairsophont sank onto a resting cushion. Xe seemed stunned.
After a moment the Pan-Admiral added, "The Science Academy is still trying to model what actually happened at that moment. All we know for sure is that the star immediately novaed and the system is, for all intents and purposes, wiped out."
+ + + + +
"Ser?" The entity moved a portion of its body into the Chairsophont's office. "Ser? The human ambassador has asked to speak with you." A ripple went through its body, indicating embarrassment. "Ah, I'm told she wishes to discuss re-negotiating the Treaty of Europa."
For 10 long years war has raged while the Galactic Committee held a tight leash on the humans; stating “We do things a certain way”. Now, with the enemy closing in, the leash comes off.

#NickyHayden adalah nama yang tak asing bagi pencinta balap sepeda motor di dunia. Pernah besar di #MotoGP dengan menjuarai kompetisi tahun 2006, pembalap yang dijuluki #KentuckyKid ini juga pernah mencoba arena adu cepat #Superbike. Bahkan, satu tahun sebelum sepeninggalannya, ia masih terlibat dalam lomba balap 1.000cc tersebut. Sejak di MotoGP sampai ke Superbike, ia selalu dekat dengan pabrikan asal #Jepang, #Honda. Mengenakan kostum corak hitam-oranye, membuat dirinya selalu dicitrakan sebagai #RepsolRider. Belum lama ini, #TenKate, sebagai tim Superbike di bawah rumah produksi Honda, mengumumkan akan menjual sepeda motor yang menjadi tunggangan Hayden selama kompetisi. Sebelumnya, pihak Honda menyatakan, bahwa motor dengan model #CBR1000RR SP2 #WorldSBK ini, hanya diproduksi sebanyak 500 unit di seluruh dunia. Menurut keterangan yang dikutip dari laman Asphaltandrubber, Selasa 19 Maret 2019, edisi spesial Superbike tersebut dijual dengan harga Rp1,25 miliar. Sementara untuk sepeda motor yang pernah masuk garasi Ten Kate untuk dilombakan oleh Hayden, hanya dibanderol senilai Rp1,55 miliar saja. Ten Kate mengaku, bahwa seluruh komponen di motor belum mengalami perubahan. Dari mulai mesin sasis, nomor mesin, ECU, sampai nomor elektronik, semua masih sama, seperti yang digunakan Hayden di arena balap.

This is Crux. He’s a NEET. He’s very betrayed atm because we captured him to brush out his very thick, oily, dander-filled fur that he doesn’t groom well and work a cat-specific leave in shampoo through his coat. Had we been in the BNHA fandom when he was born, his name would be Tenkat. He’s very lucky we were not in this fandom at the time.
#Maddie talks#Crux#Cats#We love him but he's a fucking weirdo that likes to drink soda when we leave them unguarded and doesn't clean himself

Does spraying disinfectant in public places kill COVID-19?
New Post has been published on https://apzweb.com/does-spraying-disinfectant-in-public-places-kill-covid-19/
Does spraying disinfectant in public places kill COVID-19?
TORONTO — While disinfecting surfaces that are commonly touched in hospitals, schools, religious sites and elsewhere can help kill germs, there is no evidence to suggest that misting sanitizer into the air is effective against COVID-19, and one expert says doing so may be causing more harm than good.
“Getting the disinfectant onto the right surfaces, surfaces which people are likely to touch a lot, in the correct concentration to kill the organism, and in a way that doesn’t cause additional safety risks to workers or the public can be challenging,” Thomas Tenkate, director of Ryerson’s School of Occupational and Public Health, said in an email to CTVNews.ca.
Sanitation workers have been seen around the world spraying public places including streets, parks and plazas of the cities hardest hit by the new novel coronavirus with disinfectant. According to various local news reports from cities across Asia, the disinfectant most commonly used outdoors is a diluted solution of sodium hypochlorite, which is also known as bleach.
However, widespread disinfection using bleach can be harmful to those exposed to it.
“[Bleach] comes with inherent difficulties in our ability to apply it effectively to high-touch surfaces, and it also has safety implications for workers spraying the disinfectant and also for members of the public who come into contact with the spray,” Tenkate said.
Bleach can burn the skin and eyes, which is why people spraying it usually wear protective equipment. It can also trigger respiratory conditions among those who are often exposed to it.
Unless there is some ongoing virus-killing effect of the disinfectants after the spraying, Tenkate said the mass spraying pictured in countries overseas may be an over-reaction.
“I have seen photos of trucks driving down streets spraying out disinfectant onto the roads and sidewalks, and this doesn’t seem to be a very efficient way to apply this safely,” he said. “I have also seen images from overseas where people were getting sprayed with disinfectant… This is not a safe thing to do as the disinfectant can cause burning to eyes and should not be ingested.”
An October 2019 study published in JAMA found that nurses who regularly used disinfectants to clean surfaces were at higher risk of developing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. A 2017 study also linked exposure to disinfectants to asthma in German adults.
Tenkate said widespread disinfecting may be successful in controlled situations if proper safety precautions are in place.
“It can be effective in the right circumstances and as part of a comprehensive approach to control and prevention,” he said. “It would work in situations where you can have the workers protected with personal protective equipment and the spray is being applied in a confined space that is vacant such as on buses and streetcars.”
Despite China’s widespread spraying, even one of its own scientists has begun to question its impact.
In a March television broadcast by state CCTV in China, Zhang Liubo, a researcher at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, warned widespread disinfectant spraying could alter ecosystems in ways that would have unintended consequences.
“Outdoor surfaces, such as roads, squares, lawns, should not be sprayed with disinfectants repeatedly,” Zhang said. “Spraying disinfectants over a large area and repeatedly may cause environmental pollution and should be avoided.”
It is not known whether bleach destroys COVID-19 outside like it does on indoor surfaces because scientific research has yet to be done on the issue.
According to the New England Journal of Medicine, the novel coronavirus can live on different surfaces for a few hours or up to several days if touched by an infected person, some of whom show no symptoms.
Health Canada recommends regularly cleaning and disinfecting indoor surfaces to limit the spread of COVID-19 using regular household cleaners or diluted bleach.
Bleach is commonly used in disinfectants because of its ability to break down virus proteins — the basic units that keep the virus functioning. Alcohols can also disrupt the fatty outer membrane that coats many viruses, including COVID-19, which prevents them from latching onto human cells and replicating.
“This means they are one of the easiest types of viruses to kill with the appropriate disinfectant when used according to the label directions,” as per the Health Canada website.
But it is unclear whether the bleach would kill viruses in the air or if doing so is even necessary.
The World Heath Organization (WHO) says studies suggest that the coronavirus cannot be transmitted by air. The respiratory droplets responsible for spreading the virus are too heavy to stay suspended in the air, instead falling onto the floor and nearby objects and surfaces right away.
“Disinfectants like bleach seem to be effective in killing coronaviruses. However any measure like this have to be used in conjunction with a range of prevention measures — it is not effective if this is the only thing that is done,” Tenkate said.
Transmission of the coronavirus most commonly comes from breathing in respiratory droplets sent into the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says there have been no documented reports of COVID-19 transmission to persons from surfaces contaminated with the virus.
“As coronoviruses are spread from people to people, the most important measure is to stop transmitting the virus through coughing, sneezing, breathing on each other in close proximity,” Tenkate said. “Applying a disinfectant to surfaces which are likely to be touched, can be an additional, somewhat secondary, way to stop transmission.”

#Repost @freezethemoment_photography • Tenkate Group Caloundra Queensland. 🤘🏻 I was out doing a bit of roadside after work earlier in the week and of group wide loads came through Mackay. I’d seen Tenkate Plant Hire’s Kenworth T409SAR on Instagram a fair bit and always wanted to photograph it. I was very lucky to capture it as it was going past me. 🤘🏻 Thanks Mitch for the heads up that you’d be in town. • #Kenworth #T409sar #kenwortht409sar #Kenworthtrucks #kenworthtrucks2020 #kenworthtrucksofinstagram #Kenworthsofinstagram #Kenworthtrucksofaustralia #Kenworthsofaustralia #kenworthsdownunder #truck #kenworthsdaily #trucks #heavyhaulage #draketrailers #draketrailersaustralia #tenkate #tenkateheavyhaulage #freezethemomentphotography #truckphotography #truckpictures #kwtweek2022 (at Mackay, Queensland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAvx5JdJYIT/?igshid=1dnetaks1do3e

Revive – All Of This For You
Love gave me a welcome when i least expected He opened up the door and waves me in But straight away i knew there was no way i could enter I was just too broken to begin And as i turned away i could hear him say
It’s you i’ve come for, it’s you i want more I’ll do anything for you There’s nothing left to say, nothing left to prove I’ve done all there is to do I do all of this for you, all of this for you
So he took me by the hand and led me inside Sat me at the greatest feast i’d seen And the praises of the saints would echo through the hall way Were like something from a beautiful dream Then love lent in near and whispered in my ear
It’s you i’ve come for, it’s you i want more I’ll do anything for you There’s nothing left to say, nothing left to prove I’ve… It’s you i’ve come for, it’s you i want more I’ll do anything for you
There’s nothing left to say, nothing left to prove I’ve done all there is to do I do all of this for you My heart is filled with deeper joy than i’ve ever had To be fully knowing, yes you’re loved And nothing i had ever done can even compare To hearing these words for [incomprehensible]
It’s you i’ve come for, it’s you i want more I’ll do anything for you There’s nothing left to say, nothing left to prove I’ve done all there is to do I do all of this for you, all of this for you
