...break them down, while consuming pretty much all of the available oxygen in the water. The bacteria also proliferate wildly, taking over the ecosystem and exacerbating the oxygen depletion. If conditions like strong currents, which are common in summer, prevent oxygen-rich water from the surface from mixing with lower layers, bottom-dwelling animals like lobsters, crabs and flounder in that area either flee or die. Relatively immobile animals such as oysters, clams and worms are particularly susceptible to annihilation. Such deaths take the bottom out of the marine food chain, helping to create sustained dead zones...
...addition to the fabric, Speedo developed a support system called a core stabilizer, designed to combat what's known as form drag. Rick Sharp, a kinesiologist from Iowa State University, explains that when a swimmer gets tired, his mechanics start to deteriorate, and the resulting dip in the lower back significantly increases drag. The water, flowing down the back, crashes into the arch of the buttocks creating a "rooster tail" effect. The core stabilizer helps the swimmer maintain good body position in the water by subtly rolling the hips forward in the water...
...that little bit of scoop in the small of the back, you won't have nearly the amount of crashing of water into the top of the buttocks." So, by adding a bonded layer of elastic fabric to the inside of the suit around the abdomen and lower back, the core stabilizer compresses the hips and helps the swimmer maintain a flat, streamline position in the water...
...they know nothing about. And it's a servant job. People assume that because you're serving them, you're beneath them. If you're in a service capacity, you must be lower on the totem pole in terms of brains...
...varies from restaurant to restaurant. For some restaurants, Wednesday night is the dead night. No one likes lunches. Lunches tend to be lower check and higher pressure. And no waiters like to serve brunch. That's the punishment detail. Waiters usually know what the good shifts are and have them staked out. It was so hard to get a Saturday night in my old place. I remember a waiter saying, "How am I ever going to get a Saturday night?" I said, Someone is going to have to die. Eventually, one of the other waiters passed away...
