I was just wondering what some people's thoughts are about the new Doom3 movie that is coming out? I myself, think it is gonna suck. They (the movie people) have made such changes that it is not even Doom anymore. Anyone who wanted to see Hellkinghts, and what 'Hell' looks like, won't. Anyone who wants to see a real life interpretation of the Doom environment, won't. A) In the Doom3 movie there will be no UAC (Union Aerospace Corporation). The UAC is the whole point to Doom! The whole reason everything happens in the Doom trilogy is because of UAC going to Mars and studying new technological advances. This is not the way to go about making a movie about Doom. …

Especially the new Mark 77 Fire Bombs, that they say are close to naplalm, which they say they've destroyed. Also things like cluster bombs and fuel air bombs...which are indiscriminate as to who they kill. Theres also been the depleted uranium shells. And the worst of all the white phosphor (WP) shells that produce a wall of fire that they say melt the bodies of the people near it. It says that they used naplam and white phosphor in the attacks on Fallujah here: http://houston.indymedia.org/news/2004/11/35013.php

I am a music lover who also plays the guitar and bass, who else is a musician and what do u play ? I have been learning guitar for at least 6 years now and played bass for even more, I find it to be very fun and relaxing even when playin mega loud lol. I do think music adds to a persons ability to learn and recomend everyone at least try to see what insturment they like and give it a shot even if its very hard at first keep at it.

Where can I find free ebooks on College level Science subjects Phy Chem Maths that may prove to be good handbooks ! I mean they shd have all the Formulae and other terminologies ! Pls post the URL's to free sites only ! Google proved to be a BAD FRIEND here for me !

Was immer du tun kannst oder träumst es zu können, fang damit an! Mut hat Genie, Kraft und Zauber in sich. I learned this from an SFN poster named Freeman Goethe said it. Anyone want to make serious try at an adequate English translation "Whatever you can do, or even dream that you can, begin at once! The courage to try has its own genius, strength, and magic."

What other languages are you guys learning/ proficient at? I started learning Japanese this year for my foreign language credit. Right now I'm just focusing on Romaji (roman letters) but it's still a bit confusing and complicated. Anyway I was just curious what other languages (besides English) everybody speaks. Any comments on learning Japanese?

I just wondered what the "first words" of people on here are? Mine was "door". I was always running around

Anyone watching the inaugural parade?

Yes, Science Fair time again...Don't you love it. Last year (keep in mind, this is in 6th Grade), I did a project on Hormesis and won! Oh, well...This year I have difficulty choosing a project...I was thinking of doing something on Biodiversity, the Gaia Theory, or Parallel Universes...The only problem is that it either needs to be an experiment or a physical representation of a model of that thing...). So I am having a lot of trouble trying to find a model for the Gaia Theory (maybe Daisyworld...), Biodiversity, or Parallel Universes. So If any of you have any suggestions for these projects or even suggestions for new ones, any help would be appreciated greatly...Thank y…

I hope nobody minds my chattering, I keep a pretty big diary and this is about my senior home visit. Last Monday, I had no school, and dad took a day off, so we went to the mall for some shopping then ended up at the senior home like I promised and boy was I shocked. I've never been to one so I expected a dark gloomy place full of sad old people that read bible books and had nurses all the time. Geez....was I wrong. This place is really cool. Some people live there but others just come and hang around like a club. Beyond the living areas, there are four main rooms, a hobby like room where people are cutting, gluing and pasting, a quiet room for reading books, an enter…

I can't help but recall our argument over the spelling of color, maybe it's just me. But anyway I'm in need of some closure, and I think we should vote on it!

Does it really work? Anybody got one for free or know sombody who has?

Hey guys, thought I would do something funny and interesting for my first thread. We in the scientific community all know that MOST lab safety videos are from the 1970's and are sometimes found drop dead hilarious by the viewing public. I would like to know your experiences, and what has been the funniest event described by a lab safety video, give details!! Ok fine I'll post mine first. The funniest thing I have seen in a LSV was: There was a student heating a test tube over a bunsen burner, and pointing it toward an adjacent student. The scene cuts and shows the adjacent student being shot in the eyes with an off-screen super soaker, and then calmly saying …

You have to see the vids and screens of BattleFeild2. It's a pretty good looking game. It's also a lot more realistic, especially with that new material penetration fix (only certain certain weapons can destroy metal, most can destroy a thin sheet of rubber, etc.). The new weapons look good too....but the multiplayer is still only 64 player . If you have BattleFeild1942, get the desert combat final mod for it. Encrypted

I remember a while ago Blike saying if you got 25 referalls you got a Tshirt/ mug, is that still open? Or more to the point can i buy an SFN T-Shirt?
