Grains are fine to eat, and while I won't argue that there aren't negative effects, they are extremely minor relative to any meat, fast food, processed food, seasonings, pesticides, and preservatives that are a large part of the diet of an overwhelming majority of the western world.
So by all means, if you eat a Paleo diet 90% of the time, then fine, the next thing you'd go about eliminating is probably bread, but 98% of the population I'm familiar with aren't in that position. Actually, I'm pretty sure cuisine with large amounts of seasonings and spices tend to be pretty healthy, given their many health benefits. Especially many spices commonly used in South Asia.
I guess by seasoning he meant things like industrial sauces you can buy in supermarkets?

On the very contrary, if you eat a Paleo diet 90 % of the time, my suggestion for healthier living would be to cut the insane amount of meat you are probably eating and stop believing in hipster bullshit. Bread is the least of your worries.

Red meat, to be more precise. White meat is much better.

It isn't super common in China, I mean you can buy it, but it every time I saw it it was basically bread shaped cake. I lived in a small (couple million) town called Zhuhai for a while.

Never ceased to amaze me that when I would tell people where I lived they would call it small, one of those little quirks of living there.

Once I went to a real backwater in Turkey and people told me "what are you gonna do there, it's a small village, there is even no hotel" ... an hour later I was passing a sign saying "Eskil, population 42000". Different parts of the world have different measures for population

Yeah, meanwhile i am living in a really big city of about 1.5 Million.

do drummers normally wear gloves?
I'm watching a concert dvd and the guys wearing gloves so I'm just curious whats considered standard.

None of the drummers I've seen live wore gloves

Some do. Usually it's a thing where you want to protect yourself from calluses, other times just taste.
SourcE: drummer

what kind of drummer ? like rock/ pop music, or classical ? It's pretty standard for classical drummers to wear gloves, it's part of the uniform. For the rest, it's probably a matter of personnal taste/ scenic attire

To be precise, classical 'drumming' doesn't exist. In classical music time is kept by the director. You might find percussionists, mainly playing timpani. The way of playing timpani in an orchestra gave birth to a type of grip for modern drumming (the so-called french grip).
There might be a reason if someone has very fragile hands. It is very common in that case to get blisters, especially if you have poor technique (your grip is too strong). A common area is around the first or second phalanx of the index finger, where the drumstick rests.
However, usually pros dont have bad technique (because, well, they are pro) so in that case I think it's mainly aesthetics or weird habits. A notable exampe was Dragonforce ex-drummer, Dave Makintosh.

I guess by 'Classical' drummer he did not meant one to play Vivaldi music, but orchestra music in general, in which you do have drummer, who sometime has to wear the same uniform then everyone, gloves included.

I thought he meant the kind of drummer you'll find in processions, like at 3:10 of this vid (Otto von Habsburg funeral)

You are right, I tend to include them in 'general orchestra music', especially since the orchestra I played in was doing the marching band for national holidays, but this is an over-generalisation from me.

Does anyone have any experience using servos or stepper motors? For a project I'm working on, I essentially need to lift 520N (with all safety factors considered) a distance of 0.9 meters in 1 second, and I need a motor that operates at 300-800rpm, and I have an insanely tight weight constraint.
Currently I've found this: https://www.teknic.com/model-info/CPM-MCVC-3441S-RLN
Using two of these in parallel, using a 1in diameter spool at 730rpm. That would achieve 12.17rps, whereas we'd need 0.9/(0.0254*pi) = 11.28 rps, which is sufficient. The torque requirement would be 520N*0.0254/2 = 6.604N*m, whereas those two motors supply 3.38N*m * 2 = 6.76N*m, just within my constraints. (I have four separate cables with equal loads, so splitting it up into 1-4 motors is easily do-able).
However, I've worked very little with servos in the past, and not sure how it would handle the acceleration and all. Other suppliers reference things with inductance and other parameters I'm not too familiar with, and not really sure how to use the Rotor Inertia specification they give to help me understand its acceleration characteristics well.
That said, the net weight would be 15.8lbs, and weight is a priority, so if anyone is familiar with using AC vs DC servos (it'll be a mobile mechanism, so an external power supply is necessary), and any other things that electrical people might know more about would be really appreciated. Please help
