Damn you, Physics!

I know exactly what I'm supposed to do and I know how I should go about it, but I just can't make the letters give me what I want them to.

Anything we might be able to help with?

Last Thursday, I mailed a written request to the college's legal affairs department to get a copy of the complaint that my ex-crush filed against me. I was also informed that they had a legal obligation to respond to the request within 5 days of receiving it. Today, I get their response, which says they are considering the request and will respond with a decision by June 9.

Basically, it seems to me they're deliberately stalling telling me what the hell I supposedly did to cause this mess. As far as I know, unless someone here has a better grasp of New York state law, I have every goddamn right to see that complaint.

Maybe I should start consulting a lawyer about this?

Annnnd exactly one day later I get a letter saying my request is denied because of the Family Education Rights & Privacy Act(FERPA). I don't see how FERPA applies here, although I don't know the specifics of the law. My parents are however going to talk to an attorney they know(I didn't ask them to, but I'm not stopping them). Additionally, I can send a letter to the County Attorney's office to appeal, so I'm going to have to brush up on how to write such a letter.

I deleted my Google+ a long time ago and it's definitely still there in its entirety.

I don't know, can you?

I'm supposed to find a diameter of the narrower part of an industrial atomizer based on water flow. It's supposed to lift the alcohol level (density given) to 1 meter, I have the diameter, water velocity and pressure in the first part. I know I should use Bernoulli principle to find the pressure, but I cannot seem to find a way to get the area.

However, I just noticed that what I'm given is volumetric flow, not just linear velocity, so hold off on that, I probably just cannot into reading comprehension.

E: Yup, I just dun goofed at reading. Since the volumetric flow is constant, I can finally derive both linear velocities and get a solution.

[MonkeyHead]

Ah, there you are then. It should be fairly trivial to determine a diameter based on flow rate via density.

[scrdest]

It is. The problem was, since I assumed it to be linear, I could not find the velocity in the second part, at least not without running in loops with tautological formulas.

[Descan]

My head is spinning and yet I understood everything there but the Bernoulli thing.

Fucking Physics, even when I know how it works, how does it work?

Get woken up early to go pull grass out of the ground in the backyard. This doesn't even make sense.

I hadn't even eaten yet. I went back inside to eat, actually. It's why I'm able to type this. But once I'm done I have to go back outside. I'm getting screamed at for having the audacity to eat when I just woke up.

He want to mulch an area in the backyard, but also wants the grass to be cleared from the area first.

Nobody knows, and even physicists can't agree on it, which is why they have a job in the first place.

Doing IoC, I've mostly killed both of the Glaive Throwers, literally anyone could go in and finish them off with 2 seconds of attacking while I'm waiting to rez. Instead they're just left there to pound our gates into dust.

How is it fucking possible for everyone in a faction to be this bad at PvP?

IoC?

But having played a few faction-based games, I know how infuriating it can be when your side is losing ground rapidly or just plain lolfailing.

Isle of Conquest in WoW. The glaive throwers are squishy as all hell, but they'll completely wreck the gate to your keep if you don't destroy them.

[Elephant Parade]

Think I'm going back to some mythical farmland planting some Emery Flowers and shit. :<

Either that or wage war to the whole Argon Federation. Whatever I'm gonna do, I'm done with your shit, Minecraft. ._.

This is way late, but try toggling Advanced OpenGL. Depending on your computer, having it on can increase/reduce lag by a massive amount.

A fact for which I am eternally grateful.
