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

Would this work? I noticed that water forms droplets, and that stuff can stick to water and all. I was thinking, if you ran a spray mist of water through some smoke, would the smoke stick to the water. If it did then you could attach this to a tail pipe or something of a vehicle emitting toxic fumes. Stuff like monoxcide could be broken down by platinum catalyst. Things like lead and stuff could be collected by the water and then as the water was collected after it was sprayed would be filtered(not very well). Then the water would go through another cycle and try to remove more air filth. If this idea worked and the water(since it sticks to stuff) if it…

Hey you guys, I'm new here and was wondering if you might be able to help me out with a few suggestions. At the school I attend they assign projects that span the entire school year and are to be presented during the final weeks of our second semester. The projects can be on anything you choose - research, problem solving, building things, etc., basically anything that interests you. You are expected to give a 15 minute presentation at the end of the year and have one final "product" to show for your work. Many kids choose to do an in-depth Power Point or write novellas (well, they call them papers but when they get past the 70 page mark I feel inclined to call them …

Stories get spread like jam on toast . . and what is really true is left to ones research - basically the same 2 stories keep popping up - a friend of mine lives up in Northern Canada near where the bear in these pictures was taken - there is also a corpse they found nearby that was the scond person he allegedly killed. Be forwarned this is true life and grusome... The email from my friend: WARNING: The Ted3 picture is not for queasy people The following pictures are of a guy who works for the Forest Service in Alaska. He was out deer hunting. A large world record Grizzly charged him from about 50 yards away. The guy unloaded a 7mm mag semi-auto into th…

Having just seen a programme about British TV's "The Big Read" where people nominate the 100 best books of all time, I wondered what you all read. I have very wide ranging tastes from Dickens to Stephen King, Jane Austen to Tolkein, Terry Pratchett to Dorothy Dunnett. What do you all like? i would find it impossible to pick one best ever book - what about A.A. Milne's Winnie -the - Pooh, Roald Dahl's Matilda, the list is absolutely endless. I also love the "Dune" series by Frank Herbert. May I hear your thoughts?

I hate sorcerynet. Anyone have any suggestions on good (reliable) networks? I was thinking about EFNet, but that requires an eggdrop, which my host will not host. DALnet is pretty good, but not as reliable recently. Any suggestions?

Hey!! I'm going to moan now. Whenever I go to the chat room there are a few stalwarts (and I DO appreciate the time difference guys) but hardly anyone ever chats. Except Blike and very occasionally Fafalone and Dawid (Ryoken - am I right?) , sometimes davem. Please make an old woman very happy and stop by occasionally to say a few words. I'm so chuffed that I actually can GET INTO a chat room that my enthusiasm knows no bounds. By the way - do you think that Doc Bill REALLY could have gotten all those famous people to chat - personally I doubt it. I LIKE all of you and I like to talk so go on - make my day. Or do I sound like an old sourpuss?

Hi New to the forums and could use some help. Firstly let me say that I visit these forums 5 days a week (Im a junior in high school) because I think the ideas discussed here are great reading. I havent registered though because Ive never really been able to contribute to a conversation. Very plainly Im not as knowledgeable about the things discussed here as most of you are. I need your help though, Im attempting to write a paper (only 15 pages) on the origins of war and I need some opinion or some good resources. I know that thats a very broad topic, but Im not really sure where to start. Ive read a bit on the origins of war in nature (nature. vs. nurture theor…

Since I sense there are a lot of younger adults on this forum, may I ask a question? My teenage son and daughter seem to believe that me and their father are morons who are hell bent on spoiling their fun? What could I say to them to let them know that a) our heads do NOT zip up the back and b) we are only concerned for their welfare? I know this is boring but they think the world has changed immeasurably from the time we were young and clearly this is not the case in some areas. What would make you listen to your parents? Any guidance gratefully received. Particularly in the area of driving your car too fast.

Before anyone say's it, I know IQ tests are subjective assessments of intelligence. However, it's still fun to take part. Last year I took it with a hangover, just to find out how much your IQ drops the day after drinking. I got about 119 and fell asleep on my desk, drooling on the keyboard http://www.bbc.co.uk/testthenation/ Fun to take part though, see what the average is. You even get to email your results to other people.

Anyone know that classic rock song that starts out with a guitar that sounds like a motorcycle accelerating and shifting through gears? I know the line "we still kick ass" is in there somewhere too. ::looking for needle in a haystack::

you know, I've got this huge paper due on electroshock therapy coming up at the end of the month, and since everyone here is so smart I decided to ask anyone if they know anything about it? I could probably find enough material to fill in space...I just wanted to get as much as I could on the subject before I try to present it;)
