The electoral college doesn't meet to vote until December 13th this year. It's not officially over until they have voted. The results of that vote aren't unsealed and counted until January 6th.
Conceding elections is just a nice way of saying, I won't personally oppose you any more.
If the outcome changes thru some other process and the electoral college votes Kerry into the Presidency, that's it, Bush wouldn't have to concede anything.
The Little Ice Age in Europe from 1400-1850 is now thought to have been caused by an abnormal lack of SUNSPOTS.
Sunspots cause the sun to give off alot more heat/energy than a nicely uniformed surface sun does.
Conversely, a couple hundred years of above average sunspots would seem to cause global temps to increase. Too bad we only have about 1,000 years of data on sunspots.
We have no idea what the average is. What if we are coming off of a 5,000 year low cycle?
It's amazing what humans don't always cause, isn't it.
Except the fact that we built this one,
this is what the Beagle lander looks like on/partially under the surface of Mars.
Now you don't have to actually locate it.
The July 2004 issue of National Geographic had a large article about the sun and how we've come to understand how it works.
It was a fascinating read in the print magazine. I'm not 100% sure that the online article is 100% of the printed article.
Did you know that the radiation that eventually becomes visible light takes 100,000 years to escape from the center of the sun to the corona, due to how dense matter is packed in the middle?
From there it's only 8 minutes to earth.
The corona of the sun itself is hundreds of times hotter than the surface of the sun.
"The explosives, packed with explosive charge, contain material throughout the can, but the GPS Cokes are hollow"
---Note to self--- use shape formed plastic explosives in my coke can/beer keg bombs. Form explosive to leave air-gaps simulating a GPS/Phone enabled coke can. Blow shit up.
In the past, there were a few incidents of US Navy submarines spontaneously diving while doing surface transits near the mouth of the San Francisco bay.
There were no deaths, but a few people in various instances got hurt. I recall one person suffering very serious injuries when the submarine went down over 100 feet pretty much instantly.
The cause was finally determined to be that the period of the swells near the Golden Gate bridge caused the distance between the swells to be just less than the submarines total length.
The wave swells would lift the sub up, and then 'drop' the sub as it passed over the wave. Inertia would keep the sub 'dropping' and an un-intentional dive occured. Since they were rigged for surface operations, they quickly popped back up to the surface.
We had revised operating procedures for transiting near San Francisco after this was discovered. However, newer submarines are larger, and the period of the swells doesn't match up as nicely with the dimensions of the sub, so it is less of a hazard than it used to be.
It was panned by nearly every reviewer that saw it.
By downloading it, you proved to the movie execs that:

"This incident has been reported to the FBI Internet Fraud Department, and tomorrow to the RCMP.

Hearts of Iron is one of the most insanely detailed games I have ever attempted to play. And it's quite historically accurate to boot.
The micro-management detail is HUGE.
If you play a smallish to medium sized country, your very first turn could easily consume 3 real hours of detailed planning and order giving.

You're right, we'll drill for oil first, everybody knows that.

Well, I guess it's a good thing Vioxx and Phen-Fen are patented. I mean wow, what a money maker those 2 turned out to be.
So, where can I pick up one of these African-American IPods anyway?

How come "news for nerds" comes from the BBC?
By the time the BBC picks it up, it should be OLD news for nerds.
Any one else tired of seeing stories from last weeks newspaper showing up here too?
It was panned by nearly every reviewer that saw it.

Forward your boss a few of those "Update your Ebay/Citibank/Capital One/Wells Fargo account details" emails.
:)
After he fills them all out and submits them, go into his office and explain to him what he just did.

In about the 4th sentence of the article.
;)
"The thief emailed us and explained that the goods he stole will be kept as "payment" for the lesson he taught us."
see it now?
Quit messing around with Paypal, and call the District Attorney where the guy lives.
He has admitted he commited fraud, get him arrested and see him in court.
