I just went to provape to check the clearance page for mini dragons, and nothing of course, so I looked at the mini's out, and look at what I see.

I don't know why that link says gold but this is a gun metal zenkote!

Dammit, I can't afford it right now.....Must resist......Yes, I know resistance is futile, but my husband will kill me if I buy one.....

ETA: However, if that one is still there in a month, or if the P3 is out by then, I got me a birthday present. Hubs always just buys me mods and let's me pick what I want. Ok, I am happy again.

Got the mini Dragon.........I am going to practice some will power and wait until whatever happens with the P3, happens. Then I can selectively decide if I want to do another one. For some reason, I am getting the feeling that I may not want a P3.

I got the full size Dragon, but I want the mini also, I have the mini gold, but want the full size also, and now I want both the gun metal also, so many Provari's, so little money. Then there is the P3, I don't know if I want those or not, so little info on them.

I'm wondering what the chances are on getting the Rose Gold Zenkokte? That's the color I really want. And metallic purple, of course.

Zenkote is talked about by Zen in pbrusardo's videos with Zen. I think it's part 2. It's supposed to be stronger than cerakote. Someone put up the House of Hybrid colors before. The blue one had issues so it was discontinued.

I'm with kas, too many ProVarii, too little money. I haven't bought any vape stuff in a month (got glasses and dental work instead), and all I get to buy for the next month is a kayfun Mini. But the thing is, I really don't need anything, I just want stuff.

When I checked the provape site under the ProVari mini category, the gun metal will be available starting June 18th. So, I'm guessing this is another new color.

Anyone seen H2o?

Maybe her box shot got her banned :(

Ha! No, I don't have any infractions... Hiya Chief, I'm here, been very busy.


I was thinking about this, this morning. My generous angel dropped in, got me a Dragon and then quietly disappeared into to the mist.........

Hiya Drummer! :blush:

I didn't even read that, but I think this will be a new stocked finish, not a limited edition. That is why I have been trying to get both Dragons, but I just want to be able to order it!

Ahh, no I don't think so.
It was more like a replacement for finding a "common denominator" when dealing with a fraction.
Instead, they follow a rote process of multiplying out - depending on what you're doing with the fractions (adding or dividing or whatever) - they "cross multiply".

Just an example:
Say you need to add 2/3 + 1/2.
I would find a "common denominator" so the two fractions can be worked together:
2/3 = 4/6 and 1/2=3/6. Now you can add them. Or subtract them. And you're getting a feel for how the compare, etc.
4/6 + 3/6 = 7/6 and you can then reduce that to 1 1/6.


They were taught instead, to "cross multiply".
You multiply the 2x2 and the 1x3 (why? Because the teacher says so).

So literally, they were being taught to move numbers around in a particular way ("cross multiply") to solve a particular type of problem (adding fractions with different denominators) INSTEAD of being taught to really understand the concept of it, which would let them THINK about fractional amounts and enable them to work with them, even with different challenges (like dividing them, or converting them to decimal, etc).

You get the answer, but you don't learn anything that'll last. Super.

A teacher could USE this method - if they were explaining WHY it works. But that's not in the curriculum as far as I could tell.
Or maybe it is, but our teachers skipped that part.







So if they are making kids figure out: 16 + 17 = ?

Instead of:
16
+17
_____

1
16
+17
____
3

1
16
+17
____
33. Like we all were taught, they are getting:

16
+17
_____

10
10
6
+7
____

10
10
+13
_____

10
10
+13
____
33

Is that it?

Yes, I agree and only as mini. That may be why they no longer offer the bronze metallic color in the mini. :(

I like the look of the Dragon also but I've been hearing some vendors have been price gouging that one. That's why I prefer buying directly from provape.

me too, especially since a provape rep has recently confirmed that it's going to be an additional device and not a replacement for the v2.5.

AND SO.

When a qualified medical professional says "take it slow, there is no need to rush on your first session", it's typically a good idea to listen.


Case in point: after my leg massage, I was given the chance to get on the parallel bars. I was supposed to roll my wheelchair right to the bar, and use the bars to stand while slowly putting weight on the right leg. Apply pressure, release and repeat.

But nooooo. I had to insist on trying to walk. Fell face first right into the right bar, "rebounded" off it and smack the back of my skull against the left bar before collapsing on the ground spewing words that will never see the light of day in this forum.

Got wheeled back to my ward. Suffice to say, I'm gonna be waking up with a huge bump at the back of my head and most likely half a black eye. Scowls.

It's a new color that will be available in the mini beginning June 18th according to the website. There is no release date yet on the new device.

Me too - I mean, same 3 choices for my next purchase...
:D

Wow, this is a tough call. I told myself if they came out in deep purple or gunmetal zenkote, I'd be all over it. That was prior to a new PV3 coming out whenever that maybe.

1 yr quit date approaching and I was set on getting a REO but now Iz confused :confused:
