>> You know we're going to see this headline:"Scientists prove that God exists." Scary.
If there is proof, there is proof right? I dont care whether it is definitive proof that a god or multiple gods exist, or it is definitive proof that a god or multiple dont exist. As long as it is proper proof, and not the 'proof' that is used these days in religious matters. Maybe commercial flights to heaven as a holiday destination are possible. Ask God why he forbade us to "have no other gods before me" and where those gods hang out these days. Or holidays to hell for that matter. Hang out with the deceased hookers, moon-shiners and bar-owners at a nice, cosy and warm place. </cynical>
To stay on topic, afaic, the proof for the higgs boson is still quite brittle. So I am really exited to see what will happen if they boot the LHC up again in a couple of years.
> I agree with you but if you don't get the public excited, you'll lose their support and their money.
hmmmnotreally. Scientific research is not your average "X-got talent"-show where you have to keep the public exited. Where you have to bombard the consumer with loud short bursts of dumbed down emptiness in order to keep them focused. Where the public walks away if things can not be explained in a single one-liner with words no longer than two syllables. And with walking away, taking the advertisers with them who fund the whole "talent"show. Actually I think that >90% of the people never even heard of the higg's boson and aren't AT ALL interested in sub-atomic research, CBR research, the Gravity Probe B and so on. Yet all these projects got funding out of the pockets of this general public (one way or the other).
Oh, and no, I didn't do any research to get to 90%. I estimated that based on what I know from people who don't visit/. regularly (and that is a surprisingly vast group I can say:-)...I met quite a lot of people who didn't even knew that we put ROV's on Mars, and were genuinely surprised to hear that the internet is not 'all made up from satellites'. (QED)
P.S. Maybe this is the reason he is not doing the plastination: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/01/06/world/europe/06corpses.html?_r=0 <Quote> But Mr. Hagens, who turns 66 on Jan. 10, has told the German tabloid Bild that he is suffering from Parkinson’s disease and that his wife 'will plastinate my body,' and 'my plastinated corpse will then stand in a welcoming pose at the entrance of my exhibition.' A man who has always loved publicity and controversy, Mr. Hagens gave no indication of how long he expected to live, but typically patients with Parkinson’s, a degenerative disorder of the central nervous system, live for years after a diagnosis. </quote>
I was wondering about the same thing. Gunther von Hagens (or Liebchen if you like) has a very nice and apparently working method of getting corpses preserved. Also he does it in such a way that people can learn from this. My suggestion; only leave the skin so people can have a good look inside on how 'red' he actually was;-) Besides, I think that he doesn't really fit in with men like Mao and Lenin who actually got stuff done. He was anti-american, but that's about it, he didnt really do any paradigm-shifting stuff IMHO. How low can Hugo?

After several years of dating, including a fair deal of beer-goggled-1-night-stands with 'persons' that were merely technically female. Some of those would actually make an industrial meat grinder look like a reasonable option. Even the meat grinders that have MRM/MSM/MDM options would look lovely compared to them (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanically_separated_meat) Anyway I did put my junk in those ladies and here are some ProTips for you when encountering an industrial meat grinder in your hours of despair:
Pro-Tip # 1 > Do not despair, in stead undress and roll 1d20 for initiative. Pro-Tip # 2 > Turn off the lights (ALL of them! It is vitally important that you do not see a thing otherwise Mr. Limpyman will visit you...) Pro-Tip # 3 > Get drunk / stoned out of your brains (or both) Pro-Tip # 4 > Turn on some Barry White to drown out the whizzing, whhrring and buzzing noises (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0I6mhZ5wMw) Pro-Tip # 5 > Once done give in: $sudo robodoll --pour-drink --hand-cigarettes --auto-clean-all
I hope these tips will help you get over your anxiety of our sexy-meatgrinding-overlordesses.
That is true, but being better does however mean getting paid more.
Your comment is a good example of what I hear a lot these day's. I heard it from the occupy movement and protesters and many others. It is an oversimplification of a wrong argument. First there is a 'problem'. In this case a depression. Whenever there is something wrong, a cause for this problem is sought. This can be witches when the crops fail, it can be Jews, gingers, immigrants or any other minority that can be made into scapegoats, preferably a minority that is easily distinguished by their appearance. In this case it's the bankers/managers/CEO's or to be short; 'suits'. Once a scapegoat is found it is euphemistically called 'the reason', or 'cause of the problem'. After the 'cause' is defined it needs to be dressed up as 'reality' so any descendant voice can be stifled. Here is where the AC's kind of reasoning comes in. The only thing left to do is curtail the influence of the scapegoats and there you go... problem solved!
So no, getting paid more does not automagically mean better, but the other way around however is true. If you are good at your job, you get paid more. This is true for waitresses as well as actors and anyone else. And it is not a problem to get paid a lot if you are good in what you do. It is called 'free market' and it got us a lot of good things.
Why do we blame others all the time? Why aren't we honest about this? Why dont we blame ourselves for taking mortgages that we shouldn't. Why are credit-card companies to blame for YOUR overspending? Why did you buy that extra car on a loan? Why didn't you save up more? Couldn't you wait buying that extra plasma screen for the sleeping room until you actually had the money? Or, as my grand father told me, you first need to drink before you can pee. Oh, and for that matter, is McDonalds responsible for you chewing down all that calories and getting fat? Is S&W responsible for a homicide? Is the electricity company responsible for you sticking a needle in a socket and get buzzed? Or is the needle company to blame?
Stop blaming others and take a look at yourselves first. Remember, if you point your finger to someone, the other three fingers are pointing at you...
It *really* doesn't matter whether the job justifies the salary or not. If I would get 35 grand an hour for the same job I do now I wouldn't complain and say:"The job doesn't justify the salary". If I would get 35 grand an hour for the same job I do now, but I had to move to another country... I would! If you want to get rid of the top brass management; this is the way to go. These men will just go somewhere where they will get more, whether you think it is good/justifiable or not. So Swiss is left with the 'meh-not-really-that-good'-managers for your companies. Look at Zimbabwe where the top 5% of farmers (all whites) were kicked out... Yes Switzerland, you are doing the same here... Well done!
Obviously in a place with a lot of pubs. And in those pubs you can "use" your "privates"... whatever that might mean... http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/private#Synonyms_2 Anyway, smoking is not allowed in those pubs. Just so you know you CAN grow hair on the palms of your hand without damaging your lungs.
The iceberg itself is only a problem if the get a full scale model for that one as well... and hit it... Nevertheless I think that it would be a nice way to travel about for some folks, think of all the goths that are breaking their piggy-banks *right now* to have a cruise their way!:-)
It is quite possible that there are some theologeans here that modded my comment up. But let me be so bold as to reply to your comment.
>>But then we get to this: >>[To me things are clear, this religion will never stop until either the last muslim is dead or the whole world is muslim] >>This is the most ignorant and, frankly, stupid thing I've ever seen modded to +5, and I've been here a while. >>I've got a muslim friend who is quite peaceful and tolerant. Did you mean "every last muslim (except for DahGhostfacedFiddlah's friend) is dead"?.
It is valid to tackle me on the "all of them"-bit because it is logical. You know a muslim who is apparently not violent at all. And that is good news isn't it? All swans are white, one black etcetera. But as far as everyone knows, one example is a bit flimsy as far as evidence goes. Have you seen the riots (stoning of people, petrol-bombing and RPG-ing embassies) for a... wait for it... cartoon... Thousands of hatebeards all being very violent to prove that they are not a violent group. How is that for ironic? These are not extremist nut-cases (not all of them), most of them are 'normal civilians'. There was a shopkeeper in Pakistan who refused to participate in such a protest, and he got killed by the mob. Because he 'left his faith' apparently, that is a normal thing for muslims.
>> Except that there are entire sects [wikipedia.org] of muslims who are dedicated to peace (pay particular attention to their view of "Jihad"). Perhaps you really >> meant "every last muslim (except for DahGhostfacedFiddlah's friend and members of some sects) is dead"? Yes, lets get to the word Jihad. There are two sorts, the violent one, and the not-violent one. The latter, fine no problem there. The violent one on the other hand is used ever since the beginning of islam. It made them into the great rulers of large parts of Asia, the Balkans, north Africa, just like Atilla the Hun put violence down as a concept. This continues to this day. Do not forget that! Remember Timbuktu? The mentioning of a 'large silent and harmless group that is not visible' is the same tactic politicians use to scare their adversaries. As long as you do not know what they say in private, in the mosque, or elsewhere outside the reach of researchers you simply can not tell how many actually (dis)approve on terrorism and jihadism (the violent one). Nor can I for that matter. The problem with research in this field is that muslims are allowed to lie through their teeth to non-muslims whenever the truth might hurt them. I forgot the name for this, but probably you will find it if you like.
>> But to ignore the billion or so muslims who aren't actively trying to kill us and lumping them in with the - what - 1000 or so that actually carried out the attacks you listed?
Try looking up the term Takfiri. This means in practical terms that one can radicalise out of controll, and no one can do anything because they fear to be made-out for non-believer which is enough to kill you on the spot. That is what happened to Pakistani shopkeeper I mentioned earlier. It is a bit the same like the previous point, you never know how many of those hatebeards are actually meaning what they shout, and vice versa. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takfiri Nevertheless they know that the power of the many is more strong than the few radicals after the diverse arab-springs we have seen. Yet, no one is holding the idiots back. NO ONE. They all march after the big kettle drum. And when the attack on innocent people is successful, not one cleric would rise up and be true to the love/respect/peace bit that they always try to sell. No actually, they get on the streets in hordes shouting and clapping and dancing. So that is why I lump them all up. I had it.
That's possibly the dumbest thing I've ever seen. That I agree on! That is the dumbest thing ever. And curiously, it is not MY invention, but theirs... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisions_of_the_w
Although you are right in the sense that >> After WWII communists began calling those who want less government "right wing" this does not make it their 'invention' that stuck. Actually it was 'invented' by the French parliament after the Revolution. It referred to the seating arrangements where the aristocracy/conservatives sat on the right of the Speaker and the commoners/liberals sat on the Left. (wikipedia) More info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_spectrum
An answer then... because you asked so politely...
At my school they always told me that these muslim people are followers of the religion of love, peace and respect. And that any misconduct of that group could, and SHOULD, be played down with either:
- other religions are violent as well, look at the crusaders, the IRA, abortion-clinic-arsonists, the KKK. (Funny that they never mentioned Sikh / Hindu / other religions huh?)
- Those people 'lost' their religion, so any killings have NOTHING to do with islam.
Now, years later I know better. 9/11, 3000 deaths, by Saudi Arabian muslims. 2002 bomblast in Bali (Indonesia), 200 killed by muslims 2004 muslims killed 250 schoolkids in Beslan (Russia) 2004 muslims blew up 190 people in Madrid (yurp) 7/7 London, 52 killed by... wait for it... muslims 2008 muslims the Mumbai (India) blast killed 160 people. 2013 muslims murdered 13 people in Hyderabad (India, last week)
That totals 3,865 of only this horrendously light weight list. There are thousands of smaller cases like the girl that was shot in the face (by muslims) because she wanted to be educated. Or that (Christian) girl with a little mental handicap that was accused of burning pages of a koran and was almost killed by the people in the neighbourhood. The list could be far more elaborate. Nevertheless I heard about Breivik, and yes people are killed by white-power groups and all... but that is like saying that a paper plane is equal to a 747 because they both fly.
To me things are clear, this religion will never stop until either the last muslim is dead or the whole world is muslim.

Check out the CHEMTRAIL that mofo leaves behind!!!!
This MUST be the work of a 'three-letter-agency', no other explanation will explain that kind of chemtrail. It is even bigger that the ones made by regular flying objects.

No-no-no! You just dont get it do you? It is banned! BANNED you hear!?! The moment something is banned it just stops being there. Every politician knows that. They know that because the tried that with TPB, childpr0n, marijuana, alcohol, shrooms, speeding, burglary, copyright 'violations' and spam! This all worked brilliantly every, single, time! No politician can get marijuana, SO you are not capable either...
For example (a bit off, but here we go), the EU hires people (professional troll's) to make positive comments on the EU on fora that are 'critical' about that institution. So, if you just swamp a forum with 'happy-shiny-OMGponies-reactions' it just means that everyone in the EU is happy with the EU!
Basically one could say that the Vogons are the civil servants, and the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal the politicians. You see, politicians are so mind-bogglingly stupid that it assumes that if someone cannot see pr0n, then it simply is not there.
Sigh... I see... That is what you get if parents aren't firm when raising a child. I can almost hear mothers say:"Dont worry dear, I'll clean it up, just leave your dirty boots outside next time okay?" Even years of training becoming an astronaut didn't teach them what everyone else knows.
Take! Your! Filthy! Regolith-ridden boots! OFF! before entering the ISS!
Man, what's next? All the passwords on ISS computers are 123456?:-)
You mean that regolith dust that is blown everywhere by the gale force winds we all know tortures anything on the moon? Yes that might be a problem indeed. We better go to Mars instead, there is hardly any wind nor dust there you know?

Yes, lets get to the word Jihad. There are two sorts, the violent one, and the not-violent one. The latter, fine no problem there.

- other religions are violent as well, look at the crusaders, the IRA, abortion-clinic-arsonists, the KKK. (Funny that they never mentioned Sikh / Hindu / other religions huh?)
- Those people 'lost' their religion, so any killings have NOTHING to do with islam.
Now, years later I know better.
9/11, 3000 deaths, by Saudi Arabian muslims.
2002 bomblast in Bali (Indonesia), 200 killed by muslims
2004 muslims killed 250 schoolkids in Beslan (Russia)
2004 muslims blew up 190 people in Madrid (yurp)
7/7 London, 52 killed by... wait for it... muslims
2008 muslims the Mumbai (India) blast killed 160 people.
2013 muslims murdered 13 people in Hyderabad (India, last week)
That totals 3,865 of only this horrendously light weight list. There are thousands of smaller cases like the girl that was shot in the face (by muslims) because she wanted to be educated. Or that (Christian) girl with a little mental handicap that was accused of burning pages of a koran and was almost killed by the people in the neighbourhood. The list could be far more elaborate. Nevertheless I heard about Breivik, and yes people are killed by white-power groups and all... but that is like saying that a paper plane is equal to a 747 because they both fly.
To me things are clear, this religion will never stop until either the last muslim is dead or the whole world is muslim.

...that's peculiar... two men in black suits ringing at my door...
Pfff... the flash and shock wave is the least of their concerns...
Check out the CHEMTRAIL that mofo leaves behind!!!!
This MUST be the work of a 'three-letter-agency', no other explanation will explain that kind of chemtrail. It is even bigger that the ones made by regular flying objects. I would love to elaborate on that, but I have to answer the door...

For more try your search engine... Pro tip: EU troll forum <then hit enter>
oohhh... now I get it... you work for the EU
No-no-no! You just dont get it do you? It is banned! BANNED you hear!?!
The moment something is banned it just stops being there. Every politician knows that. They know that because the tried that with TPB, childpr0n, marijuana, alcohol, shrooms, speeding, burglary, copyright 'violations' and spam! This all worked brilliantly every, single, time!
No politician can get marijuana, SO you are not capable either...
For example (a bit off, but here we go), the EU hires people (professional troll's) to make positive comments on the EU on fora that are 'critical' about that institution. So, if you just swamp a forum with 'happy-shiny-OMGponies-reactions' it just means that everyone in the EU is happy with the EU!
Basically one could say that the Vogons are the civil servants, and the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal the politicians. You see, politicians are so mind-bogglingly stupid that it assumes that if someone cannot see pr0n, then it simply is not there.

I see...
That is what you get if parents aren't firm when raising a child. I can almost hear mothers say:"Dont worry dear, I'll clean it up, just leave your dirty boots outside next time okay?"
Even years of training becoming an astronaut didn't teach them what everyone else knows.
Take! Your! Filthy! Regolith-ridden boots! OFF! before entering the ISS!
Man, what's next? All the passwords on ISS computers are 123456?
You mean that regolith dust that is blown everywhere by the gale force winds we all know tortures anything on the moon?
Yes that might be a problem indeed. We better go to Mars instead, there is hardly any wind nor dust there you know?
