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

I have been here for some time now and I came across various kinds of user names,avatars and signatures. We have all kinds of threads for best posts,quotes etc.So,why not to have a thread for good user names,avatars and signatures?Whose user names,avatars and/or signatures you like most. Among all the ones that I have seen till now,I like insane_alien signatures ""special" relativity, stupid ideas seem smarter when they come at you really fast." User name...let me see...may be "Klaynos" and avatar of saske. Edit:forgot to mention"apart from your's" Thanks to peon for reminding me that things may not be so obvious. What about you?

Okay, so we have a thread to make yourself feel better than everyone else, so why not have a thread to make other users here at SFN feel better about themselves. This thread is also a way to say thank you to a member that did something for you, was kind to you, etc., in a different way. So here's what you do, make a post in this thread, and dedicate it to an SFN user. Make sure you say why you dedicated it to them also.

May the Lord of Lords smite them with the plagues of Egypt. May their chooks turn into emus and kick their dunny down. May the fleas of a thousand camels infest their armpits. May their hubcaps fill with prawn shells. May their beds be filled with rabid skunks. May a family of incontinent ferrets take residence in their underwear. May a host of bull elephants find them sexually attractive. May they be buried up to their necks in bat guano. May they be forced to travel by pogo stick on a pineapple farm. May a computer glitch place them upon every direct mailing list on the planet. May they attempt trampoline training in a cactus pat…

When relaxing on a Sunday afternoon my housemate insists on watching Time Team - which for those of you not in Britain, it's an archeological dig programme...where they go to different areas across Britain and have three days to dig and uncover stuff like an old Roman bath house, or a Saxon dwelling that sort of thing...yawn. So with a stroke of sheer brilliance I noticed a number of words that are guaranteed to be mentioned each week...trench, geo-phys and on occasion ditch. The game is simple, whenever you hear one of the Time Team utter the word trench or the term Geo-phys (I hate that term...it irritates the crap out of me for some reason) and ditch...have a…

Gas in the U.S. in the midwest is now $3.00 a gallon. This is slowly creeping up to minimum wage. A person working at minimum wage will now pay half of their earnings toward gasoline. The question has been stated, but is it really easy to pinpoint a hero? My interests are reasonably capitalistic and I'm wondering who to invest in. Does anyone know the company that many people are eyeballing? I'm sure In My Memory has some advice; although, I've never read much from her about this.

I was going through the store today being a thrifty shopper. I could have chose the Atkin's shakes I typically buy; however, I didn't want to buy those because I don't feel they should be recognized as an addition for the Atkin's nutritional approach. I had to find an alternative. I've always liked the idea of buying those StarKist Tuna Flavor Fresh Pouches; however, always found them too expensive for my liking. The Atkin's shakes were more expensive: $6.00 USD for four Atkin's and $5.56 for four tuna pouches. As I saw these prices on the shelf, I became aware to the fact that the tuna pouches were cheaper. Something that has been a question on my mind latel…

Seriously, what the hell was the great biologist in the sky thinking? Why is it we feel this ridiclious need to be around people in the vain hope that it'll somehow promote the continuation of our species? And then we just wind up beating ourselves up because we are upsetting people by being stupid! That sucks. The human race is increasing in number quite happily by itself without my help so why can't I just sit in a cave and draw pictures without all this goddamned emotion? Why should ugly people feel lonely? It's not fair.

Hello everyone.... i'm DJ'ing a small stargazing party being hosted by my local rotary club and i was wondering if you all know of any songs that mention stars, astronomy, or space as i thought it would be cool to play a lot of them while we are looking through a massive telescope in the middle of nowhere texas. It's for kids 15-19 so hopefully you all know of some stuff they would like. Here is what i have thought of so far. (I'm tryin to keep it pretty chill so no death metal about "the sky is falling") Artist - Song Our Lady Peace - Somewhere Out There James Blunt - High Train - Drops of Jupiter Hum - Stars Coldplay - Yellow The Tornados - Telstar Our L…

Hi, I'm thinking about purchasing some super powerful magnets, something about the size of a 9V battery but strong enough to dam near break your fingers. I was wondering if anybody knows a reliable online shop which ships to Australia or anything in general about buying them. Thanks!

In my school, I had a best friend (who is a girl), who is now no more my best friend... We were very close (but only as friends). One day I told her that I did infact love her (she said she didn't feel the same about me), and ever since then...we have not been the same. I already did know that she didn't love me that way, but I still had to tell her. I got taken over by this urge to tell her...and I don't know why.We had both professed our love for each other as best friends...and she even called me her "support and stability" once and I told her that I felt the same about her. But now all is lost.... Frankly, I don't care about my love for her as much as our frie…

I was quoted in this article on the BBC's web site: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/4923248.stm My quote is near the bottom of the article when I said, "I can't believe that this program wasn't completely tested before being released to thousands of people around the world". The quote comes from the third post at http://www.climateprediction.net/board/viewtopic.php?t=4697

I was just thinking!! When the sun dies, there is no gravity to hold our planet in orbit. Wouldn’t it be cool to turn planet earth into a space ship like the Borg ship from star trek!!! Fit some propulsion system for control and a solid shelter around the earth so it can be navigated to the nearest star?? Do you think it’s possible?

Are there any US Armed Forces Scientist here? If so, how do you like your career thus far? Is it all that you've expected? I'm currently investigating options with the US Army, I am still waiting for a Medical Recruiter to contact me, so any insight I can get before then would be great!
