Women's π-Day, March 2!

Why does March 14th get all the fuss for Pi-Day.  There is an inherent bias with the decimal system, as established by the patriarchy.  There is more than one way to celebrate π-Day.  The current patriarchy wants us to celebrate π-day on March 14th but hey, hey, ho, ho!  Didn't you know? Three, Oh, Two... is a pie day too!

It's women's history month after all.  The matriarchy has decided that real feminists will celebrate π-day on March 2, besides it's ladies first! Instead of the patriarchy's need to focus on another male savior (like does Einstein seriously needs any more glory?) we put our spotlight on Grete Hermann.  She was born March 2, 1901 (03/02/01) on the first Pi Day of the month, according to the base four numerical system.  Instead of using 10 digits to count, four digits are used in the Quaternary numerical system.

So move over and check your privilege Einstein; it is high time we bring some honor to women who have made masterful contributions to mathematics!  Ms. Hermann laid the foundation for computer algebra and gave a thoughtful critique on quantum mathematics.  Additionally, during WWII she was a part of the German Resistance against the Nazis.

The flag for feminist Quaternary π-day is a tri-bar of red, white, and blue.  In the yellow, red, yellow diamond represents zero, and the blue ring around the disc represents two - as taken from the international maritime signal flags. 


Also, the word patriotism is hereby banished from the feminist world.  We must use Matriotic instead when referring to nation pride!  Thus 4th of July is when the USA commemorates it's Matriotic festivals!  September 11th is now Matriot Day!  Go go Girl Power!

Fermentation Guide & and little yellow flag

Fermentation is basically a way to produce NAD+.  Nad-plus is an improtant ingredient/fuel for energy production when a cell can't get access to oxygen.

Some cells can switch to this auxiliary 'fuel system' that produces that valuable NAD+, which helps extract energy from glucose.

Also note, there are tworking kinds of fermentation.  One that makes a burning sensation. In your muscles when they work hard, and the other that results in alcohol formation.

Glycolysis - Explained with Nintendo Icons

Glycolysis is one of those things that flies into the face of biology students.  Way to complex to really grasp at a first take, but here is some help with recognizable icons from video game land.  Hopefully this helps some of y'all.

The net result is that a six carbon molecule called glucose is smashed up to give us cool new power ups!


You can see a green flag to the right, giving this post a token pass to be on this website.

Prime Meridian Report: Vexillum No.5 - page 7

 

At our vexi-meeting, a report about the Prime Meridian Flag was given, among other interesting and peculiar flags. 

Simpsons Bar Pennants

It all started in the 1990s; adult oriented cartoons became something of a mainstream sitcom.  Both The Simpsons and Family Guy have poked fun at the culture of America.  In a weird way Family Guy is the grandchild of the Tracey Ullman Show, because The Simpsons got their start there.

Several pennants at Moe's Bar can be seen in the background.  There is a green pennant that has "SPRINGFIELD" written in black with "ATOMS" written underneath.  Another blue pennant can be seen on the wall with "SPRINGFIELD" written in black.

Another red pennant can be seen on the wall atom symbol but has "TOPES" written upon it, which is short for isotopes-the name of the professional baseball team in Springfield.

There is also an orange pennant.  The neat thing about this cartoon it was a long time coming.  It also seals the bond with the Trace Ullman show.

С Рождеством - Merry Russian Christmas! From Floridabama with Love

С Рождеством! 

That's Merry Christmas in Russian.  Surely there are a few Russian immigrants in Alabama and Florida who would appreciate the sentiment.  Anyways, not all the Christian world celebrates Christmas on the 25th of December.  Russia celebrates this holiday on January 7th.  So in honor of the other half that celebrates Christmas today, we have the Florida Christmas flag.  Basically the flag of Florida is decked out with the Nativity story of Mary and Joseph, hours before the birth of baby Jesus.  Instead of the Native American woman with flowers, we have the iconic Christmas scene as the mother and father of Christ head towards Bethlehem with a star pointing the way.

Since the fraternal flag twin of Florida is Alabama, the Alabama state flag is North Polarized into a Christmas gift.  A big holiday bow has been added with a Merry Christmas tag. 

It is amazing what a little twist can do to a flag!  Pun intended. Alabama becomes a gift with white wrapping paper with a red bow.
