well actually the void is just that a void, it's not a hole in space or the universe, it's just a place where there is much less of the matter which is in more normal areas of space is almost nothing.
Actually it's not what you think it is, you will either a "real-id" which I don't believe any state offers, or a US State dept issued passport for identification. I would'nt be surprised if they have to let you side with a State ID and Official Birth Certificate Copy for a while because the state Dept is backed-up for 6 months for passports.
I'll tell you what when Pinky says "Gee Brain, what do you want to do tonight?" The Brain will say "The same thing we do every night, Pinky - Try to take over the world!" but first we'll make some super-paranoid nutjobs into the spokesperson for the opposition and this time we'll succeed!
Seriously the only thing the nutjob does is make the rational voice easier to dismiss
I saw Bruce Willis at the olympics in '96 and he's not impressive at all in person, I shook Joe Frazier's hand there, I felt like a 5 year old shaking an adults hand, my hand just disappeared in his.
Why just buy it from the kids, take a kid, wean him from the tit to Mountain Dew in a sippy cup, mix in saturday morning cartunes and by the time he's 5 he needs adderal just to pay attention in school. That gives you a nearly endless source of amphetamines.
I have to add another compliment for the book, though. In addition to the lovely artwork, it's an extremely high quality print; well bound, on heavy stock, and looking to last a thousand years. It seems no expense was spared getting it published, which is in contrast to the content, and is unusual for such flagrant crackpottery. It may well be popular among creationists, who can always be trusted to favor glossy superficialities over substance.
To Mr Pivar, I would suggest a simple rule. Theories are supposed to explain observation and experiment. You don't come up with a theory first, and then invent the evidence to support it. Lifecode
I'm reading that as calling the product "crackpottery" rather than calling the book's author a crackpot; possibly a rather generous position for the reviewer who also went to length to also find something complimentary to write as well as giving advise for future improvement.
You don't understand how it works, Max Baucus is a democrat so by setting up this program, the Universitys get what amounts to corporate welfare. Of course with all that mad-cash floating around, the Uni's are going to expand the programs to suck up the excess cash and enroll a bunch of under-qualified students who will either flunk out and owe a boat-load of money, or graduate from the dumbed-down programs, not be able to get a job in the flooded market so they'll still owe a boat load of money and be working flipping burgers. About the time this happens, the we the people will have thrown out the old rascals, and gotten new rascals to replace them i. e. the republicans who will fix things by expanding the program to give tax breaks to corporate R and D programs and still the only people working will be three guys that graduated from MIT and a shit pile of H1B's from India because all the science grads flipping burgers will become non-current and lack the necessary skills sets.
Yeah right, and caveman also started drinking wine it's not that far fetched, I saw a documentary where a troop of wild monkeys got shit-faced drunk eating fermented fruit, it was absolutely hilarious.
No it isn't, you would be amazed at the number of periodontally diseased people who have had major heart attacks, strokes, various autoimmune diseases and type 2 diabetes. Cronic infection and inflammation is serious.
In Honesty I've seen the revised data and the difference is not great, more in the embarrassment range than the significant range. The skeptic in me welcomes this because the problem was found by a data auditor, which means that the work is being questioned, where as before it seemed that any infadel that dared to question a true believer in the church of Global Warming was summarily excoriated in public.
I'm a global warming skeptic, and I work in the dental industry, you know mercury based amalgam filings, and I'm going to tell you I'd rather have a few mg of Hg in the land fill than the amount of mercury and thorium going up the power-plant stack that the bulb would prevent.
I just installed the Google Load Time Analyzer from mozilla addons and now www.google-analytics.com just flies go figure. Try it and see if your mileage varies, it's like they know your watching or something!
Sorry couldn't resist a bad bun, but I suspect tachyons are one of those things that are scientifically plausible but don't exist. Tachyons would be able to interact with our universe through photons and we don't seem to see a lot of unexplainable photons around.
We may not be able to measure its mass yet, but I just can't bring myself to see how it can be truly mass-less There are things that are scientific concepts and there are things that are psychological concepts, scientifically photons have momentum but no mass but psychologically anything with momentum must have mass. There's a lot of concepts in Quantum Mechanics that I fully expect that only certifiable insane people believe, i approach it like jabberwocky.
That depends on how you define miles and how you define second, and right know both may have become a bit undefined.
The metre is the length of the path travelled by light in vacuum during a time interval of 1/299 792 458 of a second.Wikipedia
so now these guys have apparently figured out a way to stick an extra metre in a metre. The new scientist rebuttal invokes The Heisenberg uncertainty principle, but my lay mind seems to remember that that is primarily arround Planck unit dimensions or really small distances and really short lengths of time; and this seems to involve large distances and long periods of time, at least in a quantum mechanical context.

the only thing that's ever been transparent is the shit the other party's administration screwed up
I'll tell you what when

Kinda like some Japanese kids who learned arm-wrestling by watching Stalone movies and go out and shread their rotator-cuff trying to jerk a machine.

well you know the creationists can't use a 5000 year old piece of gum because the earth is only 4350 years old!

I at least knew the second was what you meant
well actually my comcast branded IE blocks all ads except the ones from comcast pretty good.
I thought it was a pretty racey ad for a religious whacko to link to, if the format was different I'd use it for wallpaper!

If the developers only test their sites against one browser, IE 7, what do you estimate the odds of them test against slow machines are?

try Miller welding and Lincoln Electric will get you started with tons of info to moodle.
You forgot to specify that it's made out of non-sparking, non-magnetic beryllium which is toxic so the EPA and OSHA all have to get involved too.
