Sighting what you missed favorite weeks (ok, a lot of weeks) |
Monday 08/12/2019 First - What do electric cars and a GREAT tie have in common? I really like both of them, AND if you missed it, here is Ajei Gopal, on future of self-driving cars and coffee (I lied, no coffee is mentioned)

Monday 08/05/2019 - We are doing Coffee Layers! Hmmm first layer is coffee, then vanilla, then cream, then MORE vanilla and coffee. OR we can just go to YouTube and watch metallic layers. AND bring our own layered coffee!

Monday 07/29/2019 - Well, I am certainly not sending my coffe in any airplane cargo hold using a net to keep it from spilling. SO, if it ever happens drink that coffee fast!! Coffee airplane cargo flavor I shall call Laird La Cafe Chocolate.

Monday 07/22/2019 I was going to use a drill to stir today's coffee. But, Ramesh from Kaizenat (your LS-DYNA distributor in India) would rather use the drill in a simulation. I have to agree SO back to the mixer for the coffee specialty for today. Coffee with mixed in Vanilla, Cinammon AND of course no calories!! The calories fall out using the mixer!

With the use of Simulation technology machining process of
drilling have been analyzed and have shown the reliable results.

Monday 07/15/2019 WOW - a bullet in coffee. Okay, you all knew I exaggerated. It is in water, but then it could be in tea? Anyway, let's all head to YouTube and keep the coffee out of the way of bullets.

Monday 07/08/2019 As you can see below, they don't show where the coffee would be safe in a crash. Obviously the coffee would need a lid and a safe holder. I'm sure it just isn't visible BUT the driver is, so let's crash into YouTube and see what happens to the Yaris. Video

Monday 07/01/2019 In Tutorials I'm starting some Intro tutorials for students just starting out, wanting to start out, not doing that great starting out AND you will improve! Goal is drinking coffee and improving (now to put that to my diet - maybe I should have Intro to DIET!) Anyway, let's head over to YouTube for below, and then the Tutorial page. The section will improve, I just started the idea now.

Monday 05/27/2019Do NOT place coffee on your roof rack and then forget that it's there! Why you ask? #1 it's a waste of coffee, and #2 it will upset the driver in the car in back of you if it goes splat on his windshield. Now let's go to YouTube and watch color thingies go over the roof, or properly called Vortex Shedding!

Monday 05/20/2019 - Welcome to an older particular favorite flavor, our Italian Specialty Corrado Espresso. Sipping our coffee, let's head over to YouTube. There we'll find the simulation from EnginSoft, Italy and hang on to that coffee cup, if you're driving the truck in this simulation!

especially if you have whip cream on top of it! Know what happens? Yep,
whooooosh!

Monday 04/28/2019 - It's urgent that you hold a baby and not shake its little head. Puppies, kittens, bunnies, too. I won't start to lecture on the protection of little ones, or we'll be here for a very long time. Now, grab a cup of coffee, and we'll walk over to YouTube, LSTC and DYNAlook - Order a large cup of coffee. This is longer then a walk. Okay, we are hiking! We need to study this syndrome.

Monday 04/22/2019 - Mystery #2. This poor dummy was doing his job when POW, he gets clobbered. The question? Who dropped that on him? AND who stole his coffee cup?

Monday 04/15/2019 - We will give you a lid on your To Go Large Vanilla Coffee Latte, in a blue cup to match the blue car in the video. We saw what happened to a truck (past week 02/25/2019) and now we have a car. What does that mean you ask? It means no drinking coffee and driving! We do NOT waste our coffee Latte's on guard rails!

Monday 04/08/2019 - Mystery 1 - If you were holding a cup of coffee in this simulation, you wouldn't be holding it at the bottom of the stairs. It's also a murder mystery. The poor Hybrid is pushed down the stairs being hit by a pole. Someone, obviously, wanted his coffee!

Monday 04/01/2019 - Water, water, everywhere and I'm running away with my coffee. I SO dislike Tsunami, Earthquake, Tornado, Hurricane and other disasters. Now, I did showcase the below simulation a while ago. It's a good video to watch again. GRAB that coffee and jog over to YouTube!

Monday 03/18/2019 - And welcome to Coffee and the shooting range. NOPE, we do not waste coffee so we are not shooting the coffee cups! So, let's head on over to YouTube and use a steel plate for those bullets, WHILE drinking the coffee from our cups! No coffee shooting allowed.

Monday 03/11/2019 - Today we are having Valle Dulcis chocolate with our coffee! Now, I do have plastic water barrels incase we need emergency water for the horses, WHICH brings me to the simulation of what happens if a plastic barrel full of water hits the ground? is there any chance for the barrel to survive the crash? Let's drink our coffee and watch the following simulation.
