When is Lyra & ENS baby due

“How about now?”

“Ready, Go!”

“Maybe if ENS hid behind the couch for a long time then jumped out with a mask and a knife it'd scare her into labor and get this thing movin'!”

“I think ENS delivered when Pennsy and I jumped out from behind that rock on he evil bushwack trip. Corse his baby was brown and sort of smelly!


Lyra eat real black licorice it works try it you will be in labor within 24 hours.”

“How about now?”

“no baby yet.”

“I think she will be born on Valentine's Day!”

“Yet? (Tapping foot)

Geobeet posting from the TreeHaus in BEEYOOTIFUL Staten Island!”

“Lyra, you're just like your hubby, always late.

“Dammit, I hate suspense. Would you just have it already?”

“no baby yet, but not so long now.”

“Tell lyra to quit hoggin the baby for herself, ENS. She needs to share!!!”

“Dude, you been saying "not so long" for a week.”

“full moon - 11 more days”

“the baby will be here before then.”

“Jumping jacks!!”

“Any day now! : )”

“How about now?”

“so EnS when is the induction to occur?”

“tomorrow is the 40th week, on average, babies come at 40.5 weeks.

we're doing great, the little backpacker will emerge from his/her bivy sack when (s)he is ready.”

“
Induction is a proof technique typically used to establish that a given statement is true of all natural numbers. It is done by proving that the first statement in the infinite sequence of statements is true, and then proving that if any one statement in the infinite sequence of statements is true, then so is the next one.

The simplest and most common form of induction proves that a statement holds for all natural numbers n and consists of two steps:

The basis: showing that the statement holds when n = 0.
The inductive step: showing that if the statement holds for n = m, then the same statement also holds for n = m + 1.

The proposition following the word "if" in the inductive step is called the induction hypothesis (or inductive hypothesis). To perform the inductive step, one assumes the induction hypothesis (that the statement is true for n = m) and then uses this assumption to prove the statement for n = m + 1.

A formal description of induction can be illustrated by reference to the sequential effect of falling dominoes.   This method works by first proving the statement is true for a starting value, and then proving that the process used to go from one value to the next is valid.   If these are both proven, then any value can be obtained by performing the process repeatedly.   It may be helpful to think of the domino effect; if one is presented with a long row of dominoes standing on end, one can be sure that:

    1) The first domino will fall
    2) Whenever a domino falls, its next neighbor will also fall,

so it is concluded that all of the dominoes will fall, and that this fact is inevitable.

“Oh....I always that induction was when you got drafted. They gonna draft the little tyke before he/she is even born?”

“Awww, little timer all set to pop any minute there.

Cleaning binge to commence in 5...4...3...

Remember ENS, she doesn't mean anything she's going to say during transition.

Threatening to remove the anatomy bits that got her there in the first place is only symbolic of what she's really thinking at that moment. The truth would scare you even worse. :)”

“We're having lots of cuddle time, going for brisk walks and eating eggplant parm.. that's all the induction we're going to do.

We've been doing a lot of house cleaning too.

We're very excited. We really appreciate everyone's kindness and we love that you're all very excited.”

“ready, go!”

“
uh oh.......  the Cleaning Thing.......


Nimble, you might be thinking of 'press gangs'....   like in 17th century.   You might go to a pub down by the West India Docks and after closing time they'd whack you on the head and you'd wake up in the British Navy, twenty miles out to sea, bound for Calcutta.

”

“Oh................Calcutta!”

“Oh........     Yeah...........”

“Tilt......................WTF?”

“Git in mah bellay!!”

“huh....?”

“who?     wha-?”

“:)”

“Screeching baby!!!”

“not yet”

“Tilt - They were still shanghaiing crew members in San Francisco until sometime during WW-II, although it was a federal crime after 1915..”

“Can somebody please shanghai me and send me to the tropics?”

“Years ago whenever I was flying to Florida or to the Rep. of Panama via Miami, I kept hoping for the aircraft to get shanghaied to Cuba. I figured that it was the only way that I'd ever get to see Cuba.

I was probably lucky, because with a lifetime background of working on classified projects and my counter-intelligence work during my army career, I could have been a prime candidate for questioning by the Russians. So, instead of seeing Cuba, I might have had a few views of St. Petersburg or Moscow. Even so, during my last major job, I spent a lot of time looking at Siberia from the Bering Sea.

Zombie Coyote - What did you do with that ticket I sent you two years ago? I looked and looked for you to come walking here from the airport across the street!”

“;) I traded it for a Kayak :P”

“Marko, thats cheeting, no typing in the subject line!!! I'm trying to ignore you. :P”

“Are we there yet??”

“ready, go!”

“EAT IT!!”

“Hey ENS if it doesn't happen before Friday you should just come to FYAO”

“So has the baby dropped yet?”

“Doan drop de baby ---- !”

“but ya'll can drop tilt. Won't hurt him none :D”
