There were two twins. One of them was sleeping 8 hours a day, and the other one was sleeping 6 hours a day, every day.
They were living like this until they turned 72 years old.

The first one was sleeping 8 hours a day, so he was sleeping 1/3 of his life, so in total he was sleeping 72/3 = 24 years.
The second one was sleeping 6 hours a day, so he was sleeping 1/4 of his life, so in total he was sleeping 72/4 = 18 years.

Develop brief answers to each of the following questions:1.

Many students find math questions that involve percent increase and percent decrease somewhat confusing. The first step to answering these questions correctly on the ACT is identifying them when they’re presented.
The following two examples show you how to handle both types of questions from start to finish.
Randy bought a small guitar amplifier priced at $165 with a special coupon that gave him a 15-percent discount. About how much did he end up paying for the amp?
Thus, the correct answer is Choice (D).
You can apply this method for finding percent increase and decrease to many percent problems.
Keith’s portfolio is currently worth $10,200, representing a 20-percent increase on his original investment. How much did he originally invest?

The table above shows the number of students in a certain high school class who are boys and the number of students in the class who are studying biology. What is the total number of students in the class?
The answer is B: Statement 2 alone is sufficient but statement 1 alone is not sufficient to answer the question asked.
Statement 2, on the other hand, sets up a formula for calculating the total number of students in class. Let's take a closer look at that statement.
26 + X = the total number of students.
2X + 18 = the total number of students.
These equations both equal the same thing, so they equal each other.
Now you can go back to one of the original equations, plug in 8 for X, and get the total number of students.
So Statement 2, without Statement 1, tells you there are 34 students total.
Bear in mind that since this is a Data Sufficiency problem, you don't actually need to solve everything, to the point where you get your answer of 34. Once you determine that you have two equivalent expressions for the total number of students, both of which contain the exact same unknown variable (X), you can know that the problem is solvable with the information from Statement 2 alone. And that's all you need to know to correctly select answer B.

Blue Hour has such a logical match up that it is very surprising that it did not happen again. Stanley Turrentine, the most soulful of all tenor-saxophonists, teams up with Gene Harris and the Three Sounds, one of the most swinging soul jazz trios, a group that was at the height of its popularity. The results are magical and timeless. At the time of this Dec. 16, 1960 recording, Stanley Turrentine was 26 and on the verge of stardom in the jazz world and beyond.
In the 1950s he had worked with Lowell Fulson, Earl Bostic and other r&b bands. Most significant were his 1959-60 stint with Max Roach and his recordings with Jimmy Smith which helped lead to his signing with Blue Note. From the start, Turrentine's fat tone, soulful style and ability to put a maximum amount of emotion into every single note made him instantly recognizable. Gene Harris was Turrentine's equivalent on piano. His gutsy and bluesy style mixed together Oscar Peterson with Junior Mance. He formed the Three Sounds with bassist Andy Simpkins and drummer Bill Dowdy in 1956 and the group was such a hit that they recorded 12 albums for Blue Note during 1958-62 including four in 1960 alone.
Blue Hour features the original "Blue Riff" plus four of the most beloved songs in blues and jazz history. No matter how many times one has heard such songs as "Gee Baby, Ain't I Good To You," "Willow Weep For Me" and "Since I Fell For You," these versions are still very special.
Turrentine and Harris have similar approaches, being jazz masters who loved to play the blues. They constantly echo each other's ideas and put such feeling into these vintage songs that they make every moment count. Stanley Turrentine and Gene Harris may have only teamed up this one time but Blue Hour is a classic that will be loved by anyone who is lucky enough to hear it.

The weather is finally warming up again so we will start the Harvest tomorrow with Aglianico and Barbera. Then on Wednesday we will harvest Cabernet Franc and Merlot. Then on Thursday it will be Petit Verdot.
My sore on my foot is still a problem. I have been going to the Wound Center and it seems to be looking a little better. I still have not been craving food so I have lost several pounds. Either the antibiotics or the wound itself has been the cause.
My wound is an adventure but I am dealing with it.
Today we brought in the last of the Aglianico at 26+ sugar and we also brought in Montepulciano at 25+ sugar. I am excited because we will keep Monte separate and thus we will have a barrel or two to taste before we blend it into the Italiano in January. Tomorrow we finish with 2nd crop for Dave's Cuvee.
We harvested the last fruit yesterday, but Pat and Catalina (tasting room) want us to make a late harvest 25% residual wine. Josh and Catarino (vineyard) are not interested.....we will see. If rain comes soon, the few hundred pounds of fruit left in the vineyard may develop the noble rot. We could buy some concentrate juice which is 68% sugar and add some to the fruit in the vineyard. Time will tell.

I recently unearthed a pair of commercially-made toe covers that I bought back in the mid 1980s. Totally unbranded, just a little "S" label (presumably small).
Unpicked/pattern - the black pieces are Velcro - seam allowance is about 7mm.
Since taking the photos, I have made a template in card and used it to make a pair of covers. They are a little small in width and length for the target pedals/clips but it shouldn't be too difficult to extrapolate a larger size from the existing template.
Hopefully the pics are enough to get folks started should you decide to make your own.
Yeah that would be super helpful just for wind, too. Thanks!
I wasn't watching the clock. Plenty of gardening to do at this time of year - tidying things up before it gets too cold.
Pleased you spotted me amongst the spam.
Nerdo, if you need more information, please let me know.
First attempt - made from the pattern derived from the commercially-made "S" original, but slightly too small for this particular pedal/clip combination.
Second attempt will be scaled-up by +12mm length and +7mm width. I suspect it will be too large but that's kinda good because at least I will have bracketed the size I want.
