Seen any good sculptures made from almonds lately? Note: no other nut-based sculptures may be discussed under threat of the ban-hammer!

from my persepective - 'gravitons' are irrelevant and will not be found - people seek after such a phenomena because current understanding is in err concerning this force. i'd love to share more with you, but as i have already stated at another forum (and had my post deleted because i did), i have neither the qualifications, nor the self-glorifying outlook that would enable me to gain anything in return for sharing what i know with you....... ... as this is the case i can see that in the very near future 'you' will have an important decision to make, which is namely - is it more important to glorify & reward your ownselves, when it is at the cost of the advan…

Does anyone else get the general feeling that the public is becoming increasingly aware of global warming? It seems to me that the overall number of news articles and general Internet banter about not only GW but at-home ways to lower CO2 emissions have increased dramatically following the publication of IPCC AR4 (as has the controversy surrounding AR4) I certainly do

I got a kick out of this image a friend sent to me so I thought I'd pass it along here. This of course ridicules all those foolish people who don't think "a little gasoline" was enough to bring down the steel of the Twin Towers. Thankfully nobody was actually killed in this particular incident.

I am in the process of publishing my first Science Fiction novel called: Moon Over Key Biscayne I have attempted to incorporate a scenerio, like the world has never seen. Most science fiction books/films focus on aliens or creatures from other planets. What if the force, we were compelled to fight; was a force of nature needed to survive on earth? I was compelled to rely on technology, as are most people in the world. But can this problem really happen? Just looking at the most recent plantery/climate warming news, who knows. I guess that is why I was compelled to write the book. The novel should be available within the next few months. My website addr…

Greetings to all my brothers and sister! I am new to you people here and I am a Muslim. I would like to ask you people to express your complians about Islam. You can criticise Islam and Quran alike, because I feel a dialouge is important between Muslims and Non-Muslims. So you have a chance to enter that dialouge.

'A False World View' "If reason and free will exist, then Einstein's cosmos is false. If a spiritual realm exists outside of a closed system of cause and effect, then Einstein's cosmos is false. If God is personal and transcendent then Einstein's cosmos is false. If God is the creator and differs in quality from the creation, then Einstein's cosmos is false. If there is a discrete separation between elements of the creation (heaven-earth, light-dark, land-sea, species after their own kind, man/creature, man as an individual) then Einstein's cosmos is false." http://www.renewamerica.us/columns/hutchison/050128 An invitation to read more of author Fred Hutchison…

Check out digg.com; thousands and thousands of users were upset today (~50,000 diggs between all the posts) after digg deleted a story (the most popular story ever) and banned a user over the HD-DVD key being posted. The membership flipped out and everyone started submitting stories with the key included -- and now the first four or five pages are filled with the stories over there. Apparently digg received a cease and desist letter and complied. Now they've reversed their position saying they will do what the users want even if it means they have to get shut down. Even slashdot has joined the madness, posting the key as one of the "tags" to their stories. Interesting…

Maybe I'm living up to my name and being a bit slow here...I've tried searching this as well, so sorry if I've missed something, but I noticed a little 'scales' icon next to the 'report post' icon. Apparently I have 10 reputation points...though I don't have the foggiest idea what that means ?

The Rise & Fall of Gravity Copyright by K. B. Robertson 1979 - 2007 All rights reserved. A light sided approach to the ponderous subject of General Relativity. Space-time Gravity Is The 4th Dimension: For more cost free rhythm and reason, please consider a season that resonantly sings beyond theories of strings. From Euclid's straight line shine to Isaac's golden apple and its geodesic grapple. A catchy little tune that most anyone can croon, by the curved silvery light of Albert's expeditionary moon. Dr. Einstein's waking inspiration may yet sweep the sleeping nation at the slightest provocation. An unrecognized solution that co…

From mcsweeneys.com 0. Newtonian gravity is your high-school girlfriend. As your first encounter with physics, she's amazing. You will never forget Newtonian gravity, even if you're not in touch very much anymore. 1. Electrodynamics is your college girlfriend. Pretty complex, you probably won't date long enough to really understand her. 2. Special relativity is the girl you meet at the dorm party while you're dating electrodynamics. You make out. It's not really cheating because it's not like you call her back. But you have a sneaking suspicion she knows electrodynamics and told her everything. 3. Quantum mechanics is the girl you meet at the poetry readin…
