  1. he was shot from someone hiding under the street in a sewage drain as his car passed by, this was the head-exploding wound, he was also shot from the front, even though the gov's initial report denies this they later released another story confirming it. according to the history chanel this is
  2. quite the contrary my friend, plants reflect green light, they do not need it to survive.
  3. he he, my father swears that if you dig a hole in the ground while the moon is in its waining phase and try to fill it with the dirt that was removed from the hole during the waxing phase, you will not have enough dirt (or more dirt, i can't remember). It would seem possible, although I would think it would be more of a result from daily tidal forces than from monthly whatever forces
  4. I have no idea, i've only had a little bit of assembly back in Comp. Architecture and we used a MUCH simpler platform
  5. I think the singularity would be in an exotic state of matter not yet discovered by us. YT2095, the way I like to think about it is...I'm sure you've seen the representation of gravity using a trampoline matt with a heavy object in the center of the matt causing it to bend into a vortex shape. Well, if you use the same analogy to represent a black hole, then the singularity in the center would stretch the matt so much that opposite sides of the matt would become paralell to each other. From the trampoline point of view, you would basically fall forever toward the singularity never actually hitting the singularity. From a space-time point of view, the region in which the singulairy resides become 'non-local' or completely separated from the continuous flow of space-time (or trampoline matt surface)
  6. what blows my mind is how blacks make up a mere 12% of the population yet somehow manage to cause 58% of the crime. Then their civil rights leaders preach about the discriminiation they bring upon themselves implying that whites are the cause of it. I think the majority of blacks are raised under the misconception that society owes them something because their ancestors were slaves. Their ignorance and lack of education in the history of world civilization fuels this misconception even more. They don't want to know that america was only one of many nations that used slavery, they don't want to know how america was hardly a major contributor to slavery in the west. They don't want to know that 90% of the slave population in the west came from black slave traders in africa selling their own people into slavery. And why should they? ignorance is bliss when the working class of america is dragging the freeloaders like a ball and chain to keep them from having something else to bitch about. I think a lot can be understood by studying african society compared to the rest of the world. these guys never went through an industrial revolution, scientific revolution or any other type of social transformation that would allow them to keep up with other societies around the world
  7. perhaps if you gave us the instructions in a different format, seeing the opcodes mean nothing to me as I have never used LC-3, so I would need an entire list of opcodes & corresponding instructions to see what you are trying to do. ex) ADD R1,R1,R3 ADD R1,R1,#3 LD R6,NUMBER
  8. yeah, all entanglement really does is show that their is a correleation between probabilities of the particles, an even more impressive experiment was done using gravitational lensing of a distant star's photons, just having a detector along one of the paths was enough to make the photons "choose" one path or the other even though they should have "chosen" which path, or both, millions of years ago. ( i can't remember if wheeler did this or not)
  9. (off subject) have you ever looked at the theory proposing that gravitons are tachyons...implying negative time ordering and explaining gravity's time-reversed momentum transfer? I saw this here yesterday .... pretty cool stuff http://www.itsf.org/resources/factsheet.php?fsID=238here
  10. I think the key word here is "expressed"..... The derivative of "k log w" is certainly not zero, but is again, expressed as a number (who's derivative is zero) when it is instantiated I don't understand where your headed with the derivation of entropy anyways (maybe I should read the entire thread)
  11. of course, since SR deals with actions on the atomic scale right?
  12. yes, anything more would be overkill unless you privicy is absolutely necessary.
  13. No, the change in orientation of the probability amplitudes from each possible way the light could propigate through the medium (because of the photon's interactions with the atoms in the medium) just gives the effect of slowing down. see...Quantum Electrodynamics
  14. <i>steven hawking is full of crap</i> is it just me or is there a general dislike for hawking in this place? why do you guys hate him so much anyway?
  15. yes, because you own the trademark to spaceghost? oops, he he
