Is magenta. Don't try to make this topic useful by trying to discuss qualia. Just hit the -1 button. (I'm serious, this isn't sarcasm)

Just imagine!

Give me a ratio, from your perspective, measuring effective philosophy to just plain-stupid: It will be interesting to see how this turns out. d: Edit My answer... 5 : 11 Tip: 5 + 11 = 16 total, for those who are lazy (;

I wonder if this website belongs to a University, Centre or Company (Public or Private?). Thanks

"why is nasa more important than feeding starving people?" I have heard this question a lot lately. (with the implication that nasa funding should spent on something elses like humanatarian aid but I have heard other variations such as sugesting the us should focus on its infustructure instead of having its head in the clouds) it is hard to try to explain that advanseing technology will help everyone... what are good argeuemtns for spending on nasa as oposed to giving it to starving people somewhere or on schools etc?

Here's an issue that's been bugging me for a while now. It seems to be expected from a man to pay drinks and dinner, and whatever else comes along (taxi, tickets to the concert) on a first date. Why is that? If we would be living in the early 1900's, I would fully understand. The man has a job, the woman was expected to take care of the household. Women had no right to vote, had worse jobs than men, and were generally seen as a lesser creature than a man. The one with the (higher) income paid the date. Makes sense. But it's 2013. We moved on. We learned from our mistakes. (Young) women nowadays often have jobs too. Good jobs. Emancipation has overcome all differ…

Another one of those weird videos that appears to show something really odd... It does look odd for sure... Sorry, I should have known considering where it came from, i saw it before the comments exposed it as CG enhanced probably a dog...

This weekend, I went to a certain 'Museum' and learned quite a bit. For instance, how antibacterial resistance works: I also learned that the ancient Greeks in Athens mocked Paul and Christianity over 500 years before Paul was even born. Unfortunately, I didn't think to take a picture of that one.

You can always get a kitten, in the kitten season. If you go to a quality rescue, the kittens and cats have had all shots, desexing, etc, and it is FAR LESS LIKELY you will take a kitten home and find it is ill and possibly dies, as happens regularly, if you get a suburban kitten, from a cat and kittens not protected from vaccinations. Often kittens in pet shops are from puppy/kitten mills. They aren't bred knowledgeably, for the most part, and haven't had good nutrition or vaccinations. I've lost count of the number of people with tales of distraught children getting a kitten from pet shop, that soon falls ill and dies. Remember, ALL kittens are cute, but within a…

A person recommended to send my CV to a investigation center about giftedness. What can i do if i studied business administration and my CV is from 2009? He said me to try the univertsity of Stamford, but i do not see where to send the CV. The recomendation arrived after reading my post about speciation in humans.

I’ve ridden almost everything from a 50cc peddle moped that could barely attain 30mph to a 1000cc sports bike with 145bhp that could reach well into 190’s mph and I’ve enjoyed every single mile. I thought I’d start this thread for my fellow enthusiasts; Let me know your likes, dislikes and any anecdotes you’d care to share. My best bike was my Triumph 675 Daytona, very light and quick with excellent handling, awesome through the twisty lanes in my native Gloucestershire; it never failed to put a smile on my face. My worst was a Chinese built 125cc 4 stroke gutless wonder (the wonder was it made it the 6 miles to work each day), almost every bolt needed tightening …

Lately i have been trying to engage people who make those political and some religious posts where they give one side or the other down the road for "believing" this or that to see if they can back up what they assert... Guess what... so far all I get are talking points, no real discussion or explanation for why they think this or that is true. It's so bad that when i question gun control they run out of talking points and begin to talk about abortion. Or if i question religion i usually get blocked or told i am going to burn in hell fire and that if i was honest i would see the truth of the one true savior or something like that. I know that face book is not a real…

It's about my project G-Biking, an animated series about futuristic hovercraft racing. I was thinking of changing the motif of the Canadian team (Most recently their bikes have been based on a fox, a goose and a bear), because two members (including the leader) are human, but one is an alien reptile girl. Her bike was originally going to be bear-based, but then I started to feel it wouldn't be appropriate to give a reptillian character a mammalian bike. So I was searching for whatever reptiles were exclusive to Canada, or at least more common in Canada than any other country, and I came up really short in that effort. Then I learned that North America has the …

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-22079232 But in the case of Blake's Seven I love the idea. I loved it when it was new and watched it avidly; the fact that I could easily name the characters above without hesitation after 30something years bear testament (to what I am not sure)

I was in my childhood days amazed by the working of the telephone! Voice signals/accoustic signals converted to electrical signals and sent through wire and on the other side the receiver hears it! I went to college after completing my 12th science studies to do diploma in electrical engineering. There i found a whole section of telephone chapters, all that goes into the connections wiring board stuff! So i think what if telephone was discovered in say 14th century a.d.! Then could have been the possibility that in 1960 first man was sent into orbital space to land on moon, there was 'internet email messaging through line to line computers' in adolf hitler times 1941 a…

Are the Avatar pictures wonky? I guess if the answer is yes then it could be date sensitive - anything else weird?
