Good ol' ASA was derived from willow bark, because chewing it was used as a pain killer. Controlling dosage can be a problem on both ends. Natural sources frequently have less than what would be an optimal dose, without concentrating the active ingredients.

Nasir is a legend. Love that character and he might have been inspiration for more than one of my characters, down through the years ;) I could definitely believe that all those other characters are, in some way, directly inspired by Nasir.

And the bit is that “Rhydderch ap Euffydd" is the spelling, but it's phonetically "Robin Hood."

From what little i could overhear they had a couple of no-shows, the senior person who did show was really pissed off, and I got double the chicken and no coleslaw after waiting for something more than 45 minutes. I'd have left, if I hadn't already paid. Thought of leaving even with that...

English longbow use started int he 12th Century but you're right, it would more likely be a less powerful flatbow. Unless he was Welsh and snuck in.

I have a standard order that I get at Popeye's that costs me $20 and change, in the Toronto area. On a recent trip to Seattle I got the same thing and it came to US$23. And it was wrong, and took 45 minutes instead of 7-8, but that's a different story. I'm pretty sure that the fast food prices...

(Thumbs UP) If there's so much crap on it that you can't taste the meat, then what's the point? IYKYK

These days people tend to conflate Fawkes with "V for Vendetta" and Anonymous, rather than the historical truth.

My frequent Friday night dinner is a couple of supermarket Angus burgers with melted TexMex cheese on sesame rolls, with Frank's Red Hot, sliced pickle, jalapenos, , yellow mustard, and ketchup (zero sugar). If it's fast food then one of three; Baconator from Wendy's, two Classic Burgers from...

Dairy, meat, bread, fruit & veg all in one food item. What could go wrong?

I have a BluRay drive in two of my computers for the same reason. Some DVD/BluRay players can play audio disks through the TV.

My favourite is when the solution to the problem is in the error message, that they didn't bother reading.

This one just has some unrealistic depictions in the artwork. The Taren Egerton was just silly, and not in a good way.

No, certainly not, which is why I specified warbow, which would be on the upper end (90# +).

Lindybeige's video is a comedic take on how archery is depicted in (a particular) film, rather than being a serious study of archery.

I have a flatbow and a Mongolian pattern recurve, both of which are 45# at 28". I can draw them but not comfortably, as I'm well out of shape. I'm looking at buying a 30# recurve to start building the muscles again. At my best the most that I could draw and accurately shoot was around 80#...

Of course it's going to be a prop bow, but they could at least try to be otherwise accurate. The arrow is also on what would usually be the wrong side of the bow, for a right=handed shooter.* (I'm a leftie) EDIT - And sitting on... what? This screams AI. * In Western archery the arrow...

I wish that I got automated ones. All of the ones that call me are still using cheap fraud farms in India.

What, by all that's holy, is happening in that picture? Marian is drawing Robin's bow?! Have the people who made that abomination ever actually held a bow, let alone a 100# plus pull warbow?
