With normal matter, there are all different kinds. Some matter is hydrogen, some matter is boron, some matter is cat hair, and so on.
But we never hear about "anti-boron" or "anti-cheese."
Normal matter is protons, neutrons, and electrons in various arrangements. Antimatter is antiprotons, antineutrons, and positrons in the same various arrangements. The difference is that there are essentially no naturally-occuring antimatter particles, and the artificially-produced ones are so rare and last so short a time before annihilating with some random normal matter particles that they only rarely get arranged into anything more complex than one or two particles before they disappear.
It was news a few years ago when they managed to make anti-hydrogen by combining an antiproton with a positron.
I didn't realize O O O OZEMPIC has been around for a while.
I also didn't realize it is also possible to only serve 34 years out of a live + 99 year sentence.
That new garage has been giving me some serious headache.
I had to deal with a bastard of a contractor who apparently had a master's degree in bullshit, and he broke world records in half assery.
That meant wasted months. Not weeks, months.
Then winter came, and rains started.
That 2450 sqft place had water coming through the walls.
Remember the movie Money Pit? That's exactly how I felt for a while.
Found a new contractor through a good friend who is an architect and has been helping me through this ordeal.
This new guy started working like gangbusters, and promptly found this:
Water ingress (over many years) has rusted the rebar in the concrete and the expansion caused the column to crack.
Between myself, my architect friend, an excellent structural engineer and an expert in structural reinforcement we found a definitive solution to save the place.
Columns will be wrapped with layers of carbon fiber. That is great news.
Bad news is, it will take a while, and it will be messy.
Like I said, I was quiet for a while, but I was screaming when I was alone in my car.

Ah Hakan, as a civil engineer, I feel your pain...
Hope you get a solution with the carbon fiber support...
I guess that doesn't help the Carola bridge in Dresden anymore... same cause, corroded steel inside the concrete

I'm in the middle of a renovation.
Between May 21 and Aug 30 when we fired our first contractor, they worked approximately 32 days (some half). This was also after the permit was approved on April 12th, and they dragged their feet to even start working on that date -- they did so many things wrong, hired incompetent staff and subs, damaged expensive **** they shouldn't have touched, etc. etc. etc.
None of these people could ever hold a real job -- it's such a scam industry.

If someone has a gun out robbing a business, I wouldn't think to grab him by the shins and pull his legs out from under him. It looked in my little cell phone screen like the gun came out once he was on the ground but it wasn't clear.

And this is why you are still alive, and those two heroes are not.
I mean, watch the video all the way to the end. As the robber is walking out of the store, he casually puts one last round into the guy who is on the floor, crawling away from him. That's not non-criminal behavior.
