dude, durable non-stick cook wear, greases and oils stick to diamonds like nobody's business, that's how they separate the diamonds from gravel commercially, the diamonds stick to the greased slush box and the gravel washes out. With diamond coated cook-wear just a teaspoon (5ml) of oil sticks to the diamond coating and your eggs don't and it's tough enough to actually survive everyday use. Diamond coating would blow teflon and silverstone out of the water!
Cultures with run-away population growth tend to be poverty-stricken and under-educated cultures where people begin families in the earlier teenage years. In these cultures the Grandparents tend to have a very active role in rearing the grand-children and ruling the extended households. Losing the Grandparents would seriously undermine any stability these cultures have.
I'm not sure shutting down Hospitals would even put a dent into the population growth, areas with the worst health care systems seemed to have run-away birthrates.
The death tolls in modern wars are dropping rapidly so it wouldn't help. Even during WWII overall death rates dropped during combat, I remember on study done on Belgium where the government ordered livestock slaughtered prior to the invasion by Germany to avoid famine by freeing livestock fees for human consumption, the net effect was the death rates decreased during the Nazi conquest and occupation. I'm 5 days short of being an official Viet Nam era soldier and more of my classmates have died in car-train accidents than combat!
Science could prove that God exists, it would take an experiment where an experimental universe had a Created God and it would be compared to our universe, if they were the same then God exists, if they were different than only our created God would exist and there would still be a God. The other way is either unworkable or impossible because it would involve creating without God for comparison; most definitions of God involve the quality omnipresence and he would contaminate our control universe. Of course if he told us he would not contaminate our control universe it would not only make the experiment scientific but unnecessary.
McCain said something very insightful when he called Obama a "Left lane Liberal" and implied that he is a "Right lane Conservative" and that just means they are both going in the same direction just Obama is the fast lane and McCain is the slow lane!
Watch the experts do a few, try a couple of the larger connections, get a feel for the correct heat and how the solder flows and you'll be fine. there's a touch to it, it's not hard but you need a little practice, the old fashioned 40/60 lead tin solder is easier than the newer stuff.
I'm not so sure about that, not being a math whiz I can't prove it, but it seems that a 30G solar mass black hole would have a very very large event horizon which would greatly reduce the tidal forces. The lunar tide has little effects on my body, a 30G SM blackhole may not have much effect on a star the deltaG would likely be too little. All we know about blackholes is mass, charge and angular momentum everything else is lost crossing the event horizon; in fact if the horizon is big enough one might even cross it unnoticed, this is called weak spaghettification.
of course the chances of two blackholes colliding head on are quite small, but two going into a binary death-spiral would produce effect that would be mind-boggling. The tidal forces could easily rip holes in the event horizons allowing mater to spill out into the central regon
in breaking news, the Bush administration ordered all NASA websites to report astronomical distances in the more appropriate metric unit of measure the meter.
If something denser, like a star were to fall in, I doubt that the radiation pressure would push it away.
I was thinking the same thing but if you heat a star to a 100 million degrees I doubt it would stay star-like. Something hot enough to evaporate a star, now that would be some shit to get your head around, it might look like a comet only in x-ray instead of visible light. A neutron star or another blackhole might do the trick; another neat effect might be pulses of gas being expelled at near light speed as star get crushed and get heated up in pulses as the fall into the surrounding vacuum.
People frequently get bacterial secondary infections along with common viral primary infections and dealing with the secondary infection allows the body to dedicate more immunological resources to fighting the primary infection.
Then an opiate blocker was added to block the injection's effects, and surprise surprise, it also turned out to block the placebo's pain killing effects. This is one of those oddities medicine really has no good explanation for. It does seem to fit somehow with what you mention as well.
Adding a narcotic blocker to a placebo injection would also block the bodies natural endorphins and thereby blocking the natural pain relief mechanism. Opiates are not as good a pain reliever as people think, especially for some types of pain, for a good old fashioned everyday tension headache a couple tylenol or aspirin works wonders, but a vicoden wouldn't touch it. Motrin is the best pain reliever bar none for dental pain.
Stupid isn't likely in Harvard graduates, I see him as being fairly liberal and I didn't deign anything, I just don't think a burden of proof has been met. I would love for a real scientist to convince me, most of the arguments I've heard from amateurs have been nonsensical.
The the idea is the Mongol name and logo used in association with a motorcycle club is trademarked, the clubs do this to protect their image. By seizing the trademark the law enforcement, may actually be able to seize unauthorized trademarked merchandise. I rather think that taking the jacket off a man's back might exceed the authority, more likely they would seize the patches and courtesy cards at the club houses; even more likely they would be given the choice between surrendering the trademarked good to avoid litigation.
Nobody is actually arguing over the the cause of global warming anymore either. Are you saying that anyone that doesn't agree with your point of view doesn't exist or that any contrarian position is so wrong that it doesn't count as a valid argument?
Nobody is arguing that the climate isn't changing, it's about the cause, the AGW premise is plausible and now even looks very likely, yet you have to consider the following the the Earth has warmed and cooled before without human intervention and establishing cause based on evolving and unproven computer modeling eliminating other causes, while we are still discovering potential causes is a bit of a stretch. Why would you think that Climatology is easier, cheaper and more certain than pharmacology and bio-medicine anyways? Perhaps you believe that Exxon-Mobile will just cease operating when the last drop of extractable crude comes out of the ground?

What the hell are diamonds good for ?

Yes but on /. he only rates a junior chipmunk badge, interesting but solidly entry level nerdom.

the worst part is even when you know exactly where they are, there speed is deceptive!

And now the Large H Collider that comes with the promise of pushing the entire Earth into a black hole - the most ultimate sexual act ever.

There fixed it for you.

yeah, it seems that way but those guys often have a way almost telling a lie, and not correcting your misconception.
dude you screwed up the URL, aways preview and test your link, even if your just trolling

Not really biker's are very protective of their colors and the feds quite literally stole their colors; the humiliation factor is extreme.

woah dude that has to be a first, using GWB as an authoritative voice in a science matter on slashdot!

Are you saying that anyone that doesn't agree with your point of view doesn't exist or that any contrarian position is so wrong that it doesn't count as a valid argument?
Are you accounting for papers being un-refuted when the refuting papers are later refuted?
