DURABLE BOOKS
If you want a
replique montre de luxe mouvement Suisse
that lasts forever, buy one that's made in Britain. It's more likely to have sewn binding and a durable cover than binding that's glued and with pages falling out.

ESTIMATING HEIGHT
The rate at which an object falls is independent of how fast it is traveling laterally. To determine the height in feet of a slope, throw a rock out level and time its fall. Square the number of seconds it takes the object to land, then multiply by 16. This will be your height in feet above the landing site.
