Venison originally meant the meat
of a game animal but now refers
primarily to the meat of antlered
ungulates such as elk or deer
(or antelope in South Africa).

Venison can be used to refer to any
part of the animal, so long as it is
edible, including the internal organs.
Venison, much like beef or pork, is
categorized into specific cuts, including
roast, sirloin, and ribs. Venison is good.

Tangents have several properties of interest.

1. Tangents approximate the curve at a point. They give the best approximation at that point by showing you the slope of the curve at that point.

2. The tangent barely touches the curve at a point.

3. For a point on a curve to have a tangent, it must be differentiable at that point. If it is not differentiable at that point, it has no defined slope and therefore has no defined tangent since the tangent is given by the slope at that point.

Is it? That sounds like something Greg Bear would write. :)

Odd. I thought Tangents would be about folk like George Hamilton or Zonker Harris.

When not in use ALL serving line computer terminals will be locked! Each shift will clean inside the box area then lock it after each meal. There will be ZERO tolerance on this issue!


We are currently down 3 SGTs on shift. You will be allowed to work overtime to fill those slots. Which means, if you choose to work OT you will be expected to assume those shifts and be fully responsible for those shifts. The only alternative to this will be a special project assigned by me (Cleaning detail, etc.). You will account for your overtime hours each day. We will not have extra staff working in the department with no purpose.


SGTs are expected to initial against their Officers overtime at the end of each shift to keep track of the activities and the time spent. Sergeants will keep track of what time their officers for each shift and when they leave at the end of each shift.


From this point forward we are going to begin handing out basic sack meals to those offenders that come to the serving line with no form of ID or cannot be properly identified because they are obviously displaying stolen ID cards. Please ensure that we are not allowing them out of the wings without proper ID as this begins the cycle of issues for the entire chow line.


2nd Shift is expected to have 3 barrels of Water covered with white lid every day in Vault 6 before the end of the shift. This will be used overnight.


To keep up our ice count, we are expected to utilize the BBQ beef containers and peanut butter jars to make ice block as the warehouse is currently out of boot bags. Show ice progress daily!
