Maybe the little fish should enlist the help of the giant crabs to force the big fish to enable the little fish to get what they want or cut the big fish out of the picture all together and let the shrimps regain control of their output.
In fact you learn 2 things every day because Hock does not mean what you think it means either.
Hock 1. Pawn 2. the state of being deposited or held as security; pawn: She was forced to put her good jewelry in hock. 3. the condition of owing; debt: After the loan was paid, he was finally out of hock.
1. to peddle or offer for sale by calling aloud in public. 2. to advertise or offer for sale: to hawk soap on television. 3. to spread (rumors, news, etc.).
From the article it doesn't sound as though the UK has been affected with this yet.
The warm weather at the moment is great, it was warm enough to sit outside the pub at 3AM in the morning over the weekend. Brilliant. It seems to me though that we usually have nice weather in mid April for a few weeks after which it starts raining until a brief period in July.
Hallelujah brother, yet more evidence that the True designer is much more intelligent and, dare I say it, omnipotent and wise, than man can ever hope to be. How could we, humble servants as we are, ever hope to design anything as cunning and efficient as that which Our Lord has designed for us.
I don't think I really understand what that article is going on about. It seems to be saying that there is something which recieves the sunlight and something else which is the molecular energy. Between these two there are numerous ways of transferring the sunlight energy but some are better than others and that each route is simultaneously probed by both sides until the best one is found which is then used for the energy transferrance.
Is that even close to whats being described here ?
Was there any specific quantum effect you had in mind or did your spell checker mysteriously substitute the phrase "quantum effects" for the word magic ?
Yeah, if I had to take a wild guess I'd say it was about a week too so I guess that settles it. I suppose we'll have to revalutae the whole age of the Earth thing but to be honest I had a dream a while back which seemed to cast some doubt on that anyway.
If you integrate this with one of those 3D printing machines you can print entire houses complete with windows, wiring and walls. All you'd need to add was the plumbing and fittings.
No, he means British. It may well be they have done the same to Canadians but the recent example I'm aware of were two dumbfuck American pilots who having been told there were no targets in their area decided to blow the shit out of a British convoy which clearly had big orange signs on them. The dumbfuck pilots thought the big orange signs were concealed rockets and having blown the crap out of the convoy and then realised that maybe, just maybe, these were the friendly forces they had been told about in the area.
Sadly despite the pilots totally being in the wrong the US is refusing to hand them over to British justice to recieve their just deserts.
What right do we need to exploit the universe for our own benefit ? The fact that it's there and we are able to exploit it are reason enough, luckily it's a part of human nature to explore our surroundings and make use of what we find so despite what you might want it's almost inevitable that this is what will happen.
Humans have managed to co-exist with each other for hundreds of thousands of years without any real problems so it's perfectly likely we could achieve the same harmony with other intelligent species.
OK so there will probably be times when it will come to war between us but then in the past various countries have been at war with one another for hundreds of years with largely positive outcomes in the end. Britain and France for example probably both benefitted in advances in naval technology from their various wars.
It may be that we come across weaker aliens than us who have something we really want and the chances are we will exploit them for all their worth and no doubt other aliens would look to treat us in a similar manner, we must be on our guard. You might say this is all too dreadful but in fact it's the spice of life and it's in our nature as much as eating wildebeeste crossing rivers is in the nature of the crocodile.
Modded flamebait because that's exactly what it is you moron.
If you want to believe their is some kind of leftist, whatever the hell that means, conspiracy against you and your opinions then you're probably just stupid enough to pull it off.
On the other hand you might try to think of something positive to say about the US, Israel or better still something related to the topic of discussion that doesn't sound like the dribblings of a lobotomised zombie and maybe you'll have more luck with your moderations.
The ones in the US could shout "LIB - ER-ATE, LIB - ER-ATE WE WILL FREE YOU - LIB -ER-ATE" like the Martians in Mars attacks "We come in peace" bang - shoot - fizzle - "We are you friends" slaughter - annihalate - kill.
Your opinion is worthless until you can explain how Europa and Pluto both show clear cooling changes over the last 100 years and how that relates the warming you are talking about on Mars.
That's an interesting article, it starts off by saying that the program was using some kind of dodgy graph to make it look as though there was a cooling period between 1940 and 1970. The article says this graph was misleading and wrong and that no such cooling period exists.
It then says that the scientifically accepted cooling period noted between 1940 and 1970 has now been successfully explained as being caused by air pollution.
So it sounds to me as though everyone agrees the point of the graph is accurate, there was a period of global cooling between 1940 & 1970 its just that the program makers and the Independant disagree as to what exactly caused it.
Clearly that program was presenting the arguments against global warming in a very robust fashion and wasn't presenting any counter arguments at all but thats no different from a lot of other documentaries presenting the opposite view. Personally I wish people would just shut up on this issue and let the scientists have some room to study it properly and impartially.
Even the worst case scenarios aren't exactly that catastrophic, at least not for us in the 1st world, and will be, if anything, just a minor inconvience.
If it really is a global super catastrophe and everyone dies then it will solve it's self anyway as our emissions will suddenly stop and the surviors can live out some eco friendly, tribalistic wet dream.
That's crap then, there are half a dozen places on the internet in the UK where you can do this. I should go into business providing this kind of service, there must be a market for it.
I understand they still practice traditional techniques of medicene. Keef, who I presume must be the tribes witchdoctor has recently explained how snorting up his fathers ashes with a good dose of coke smooths the coke nicely and gives you a good hit.
It's also handy that the Armed Forces and the Police swear their oaths to the Queen rather than the government so if the worst ever did come to the worst the army could choose to get involved against the government.
The reason why people no longer feel able to tackle these kind of behaviours themselves is that they have a, justifiable, fear that they will find themselves being punished by the police if the action they take ends up with them giving the anti social person a clip around the ear or whatever.
Criminals, especially the nuisance level ones hanging around on street corners, selling drugs, burgling houses and mugging people have no real fear of the police. Ok so they may get caught and arrested but after that they're back out on the street able to take up exactly where they left off.
These people have no fear of the law so in a confrontation with a member of the public asking them to keep the noise down, not litter the streets or whatever they will immediately become aggressive and be quite prepared to beat the crap out of the member of the public whilst the member of the public will be naturally hesitant and not want to find himself before the law for kicking seven kinds of crap out of the scumbag so the best plan is simply not to get involved which obviously leaves the streets free for the scumbags who quite rightly believe they can do what they like and get away with it because in fact this has been proved to them in every single run with the police or people telling them to mend their behaviour.
The real solution is not talking cameras, it's a two pronged approach. First we need more trained policemen on the streets walking around. They know who the scum are and can actually do a lot more than a voice from a camera to enforce correct behaviour.
Secondly the law needs to changed whereby persistant offenders get actual prison sentances, long ones and where the public are allowed to defend themselves without fear of prosecution by the scumbags.
I too recently bought a PC without any operating system installed, it took me around 5 mins to find somewhere on the web where I could do this.
I think that if people don't care that they are being forced to buy Vista and if they can't be bothered to seek out alternatives then there is no problem with all the places where they are likely to shop taking advantage of that. So long as the rest of us can excercise our own choices to not have any particular operating system thrust upon us, which we can, then all is well.
What puzzles me is that the article goes on about "archaic" groups of humans who the humans coming from out of Africa met up with and made love to without ever explaining who or what these archaic groups were and how they had got where they were.

I don't know, the whole thing is beginning to smell a little fishy to me.
Maybe the little fish should enlist the help of the giant crabs to force the big fish to enable the little fish to get what they want or cut the big fish out of the picture all together and let the shrimps regain control of their output.

Hock
1. Pawn
2. the state of being deposited or held as security; pawn: She was forced to put her good jewelry in hock.
3. the condition of owing; debt: After the loan was paid, he was finally out of hock.
Actually no:
Hawk - verb (used with object)
1. to peddle or offer for sale by calling aloud in public.
2. to advertise or offer for sale: to hawk soap on television.
3. to spread (rumors, news, etc.).
-verb (used without object)
4. to carry wares about for sale; peddle.
You see, you learn something everyday don't you.
I think Charles Dickens write a lot of his books as serials which shows that it can be a successful method of writing and produce good quality work.

People back then also worked far less than we do today and had loads more holidays, parties and feasts than we do today.
