One of the more interesting things about the data from China is that very few children are getting sick. Not a single reported death in a child under 10 as of a few days ago. Not clear why. In Korea kids are underrepresented but maybe less so, but none have died. Kids are normally MORE...

It is certainly possible that the gods have abandoned us as a result of constant violations of The Rules. Indeed the OP should buy the Clipper, and a heavier Viscaria, and then the Xiom blade Yogi was recommending. It is the enlightened ones like bricec who remind us of the True Way and who...

When bicarbonate levels in blood rise blood pCO2 falls. CO2 is often called volatile acid. A rise in blood CO2 is an acidosis. This is very elementary. This is the thing you dont understand. From the start it is the thing you have been getting backwards. pH = 6.1 + log ( [HCO3]/ [.03 x...

My honest view is that the answer is no. But a change of rubber could get you where you might want to be. I don't know if you are boosting your FH rubber or not. If so, boost less? On Backhand maybe instead of Tenergy 05, try Razena. And of course, you already mentioned getting Mantra...

Also below is a link to a paper from a few days ago from doctors in Beijing reporting very similar findings. Note again, about 17.6 percent of patients are severely ill, even though statistics suggest most will apparently survive. Even if it doesn't kill you, you really don't want to go...

And a commentary on that article (also in the New England Journal of Medicine) that summarizes the salient points. https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMe2002387?query=recirc_curatedRelated_article

Some moron wrote this: "For the same reason, cancer grows slower on higher altitude, as the body automatically retains more co2." I leave it to the reader as an exercise to figure out why this statement is false. Hint, the body changes respiratory rate in response to hypoxia. I have cured...

These people are actual experts on viral epidemiology. Fauci has been head of that NIH institute for a long time and is one if the worlds experts on the HIV virus and virology in general. NEJM is a rigorously reviewed source. Keep in mind though that 18 to 20% of cases in China have led to...

This has been pretty epic for a thread where nobody mentioned the coefficient of restitution even once.

Dudes. None of this matters. Odds are overwhelming that OP in fullness of time will stick with the Viscaria. You are writing long paragraphs nobody is going to read. About ping pong paddles. Contemplate the essence of Rule 88. Ba'al has spoken.

Another suggestion. Keep the Viscaria but something like Karis M rubber on it. It will tame all of the twitchiness but you will still have the power when you need it. Alternatively, Stiga Mantra H.

You very clearly have no idea what the f$%k you are talking about. It doesn't even rise to the level of being wrong, although several things you wrote here about physiology are actually grotesquely wrong. That is the better part of what you wrote. You are clearly a troll.

No. It is not an antioxidant. Bicarbonate is the body's main pH buffer both inside and outside cells. It's levels in the body are carefully regulated primarily by the kidney. If you consume large amounts of Na-Bicarbonate, the body will respond by excreting the extra that you don't need in...

Meanwhile there is this: https://metro.co.uk/2020/02/28/coronavirus-updates-dog-tests-positive-covid-19-hong-kong-12317727/ As things stand now WE ACTUALLY DON'T KNOW if Covid19 can transfer to dogs and cats and from there to humans. We do know that this virus can cross species because that...

A real possibility

Because after all, who needs science to make informed decisions?

Good thing about chloroquine is it's cheap and easy to make and no longer patent protected. Some of the other drugs that might also work are more expensive. There are encouraging observations in small trials so far with at least three drugs. The key with viruses that cause acute respiratory...

One of my friends who is still a beginner plays like that. And he doesnt look much like Ma Long. The other day he won a match against a 2000 level player. Of course I'm more advanced than he is so this suggestion doesnt help me much. What I'm looking for is a blade that has MORE speed...

One can certainly have preferences. The ones with ALC closer to the surface ( Viscaria type) are enough alike that one can reasonably easily switch from one to another. They are pretty much intended for the same kind of player. The same is true fir the Innerforce types ( with deeper ALC...
