The 10-day week

Enough of the number seven, 10-day week for the win!
This will make time conversion much easier to do.
There will be 3 more days of the week: Sciday, Urlenday, Nepday.
They will be placed right after Wednesday respectively.
Sciday will be a new day off, cutting the work week in half.
Urlenday and Nepday are named after Uranus and Neptune.

Wednesday would be like Friday.
Sciday would have an unique vibe.
Urlenday would be like Monday.
Nepday would be like a normal work day.

Water as a moderator or absorber in nuclear reactors

No.13505955 ViewReplyOriginalReport
I ended up learning about nuclear disasters in Chernobyl and Fukushima. I know that they used totally different reactors but there's one thing that i can't wrap my head around. In Fukushima they used BWR reactors which were using light water as a moderator and coolant which makes sense to me. In RBMK reactor that were operating in Chernobyl uses graphite as moderator and water as a coolant. From what i was able to learn they have to use graphite endings on the control rods to compensate for waters neutron absorption ability which doesn't make sense to me because water is used as a moderator. Can anyone explain to me what i'm understanding wrongly about this thing?

Measuring metabolic rate

No.13504915 ViewReplyOriginalReport
Pic related is a respiratory calorimeter. It measures co2 and oxygen levels while a person breathes to determine their metabolic rate.

I've read many older medical textbooks that recommend doctors measure the metabolic rates of patients to determine various things about their condition.

How did they measure these rates in the past? Is there a way someone can measure their own metabolic rate without a respiratory calorimeter? If not can a non medical professional purchase one of these devices?
