  • Looking for an excellent recipe software program: input ingredients, output recipes?

    Does this cooking/baking software program exist? I would like to be able to input the ingredients I have on hand, and have the program output recipes using those ingredients. So, if I have frozen talapia, peanut butter, yogurt, and carrots in the kitchen, I'd like to find out what possible dishes I could make with them. Or, have it tell me that nothing edible is possible with that combination.

    And I'm looking for something with some quality, like thousands of recipes, rather than just a few. Any such software out there? Thanks for your help.

  • How fast can the average person throw a baseball?

    Professional baseball pitchers can throw 90-95 mph, and -- argueably -- the fastest pitches ever thrown were in the 101-103 mph range.

    But how fast can the average joe (like me) throw a baseball? Someone who's never played baseball at any level, but is reasonably athletic and coordinated. I figure I can hurl a baseball close to 60 mph on a good day. Sound reasonable?

    Has anybody here who doesn't play organized baseball ever been clocked with a radar gun? How'd you do? Anybody have any guesses for ball speed by an average joe? Other than wild guesses, I mean.

  • Negative exponent question?

    If the mass of a hydrogen atom is 3.68x10^-27 pound, how many hydrogen atoms would weigh a pound?

    My first thought is the obvious answer: 3.68x10^27 atoms. But is it really 3.68x10^26 atoms instead? I'm a little confused by which one is correct, if any. Is there a handy little memory trick to using negative exponents?

    Thanks for your help.
