He got busted by his parents for getting "B" in Spanish.... Quote from: Broni on June 19, 2009, 11:06:22 AM

He's not going anywhere.
He got busted by his parents for getting "B" in Spanish....

it's not like he brought home the proverbial one-legged A.   

gees, so he really did get in trouble?   I'd say a B in Spanish is pretty good...

I would have gotten a reward for that, not punishment 

It's all depends on the parents I guess.....just don't grow up beating yourself up for being a failure, if you are getting B's  cause that's just ridiculous.

Some kids probably grow up with serious confidence problems because of this---the parents

B's are the standard (or "the bar")...technically getting 100% on a test still gets you a B. If you "go above and beyond" the standard described by the government incharge of your education, you get an A (- or +).

A recent Reviw posted newegg for a Heat Pipe CPU cooler ....note the User's experience level:

Quote

Core i7 User
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg 4/8/2009 3:01:24 PM Wow, Just wow


Pros: Only $40, not $70.

Cons: Okay, where do I begin. In order to fit this cooler into my case I broke off the top fin and sawed off the tops of the heat pipes. What I saw inside shocked me. Instead of full copper heatpipes, they were hollow on the inside with a thin layer of copper. I loaded up my system;
Stock Heatsink Idle: around 35 degrees c idle, load 85.
New (better) heatsink: reaches 70 degrees c idle, reached 110 degrees c before I pressed the button to turn it off.

Other Thoughts: This is a piece of cheap hardware and I don't know why it did not work as splendidly as everybody elses did. I hope that, if you're are still buying this, that it works better for you. The worse part is I don't know if the manufacturer will honor the warranty due to the modifications I MADE.

Find another Doctor if the prognosis isn't what you were looking for....

Bloomberg reported yesterday,

“The stimulus PACKAGE the U.S. Congress is completing would raise the government’s commitment to solving the financial crisis to $9.7 trillion … enough to send a $1,430 check to every man, woman and child alive in the WORLD."

It’s 13 times what the U.S. has spent so far on wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, according to Congressional Budget Office data, and is almost enough to pay off every home mortgage loan in the U.S., calculated at $10.5 trillion by the Federal Reserve.”

What do you think of the new avatar??Gift certificates first, THEN I'll tell you Kind of makes me sad but other then that it is OK.

Let me explain why it makes me sad before before any one thinks I am completely nuts.

The eye is blue and my daughter has bright blue eyes. I am currently in Angola and she is in Louisiana. So when I saw the bright blue eye it made me think of her which in turn made me think of my little boy and my wife and that in turn made me think of how much I miss them and can't wait until the 4th gets here so I can see them again.

So you see any time I think of having to be away from them I get sad. Quote from: Broni on February 18, 2009, 08:16:19 PM

Quote

A Leamington man has fallen prey to international scam artists who strung him along for more than a year with the promise of millions in cash, but ultimately bilked him and his family of $150,000.

John Rempel said he quit his truck driving job, lost friends, borrowed money and crossed the globe in pursuit of a non-existent inheritance, after he was contacted by e-mail in what is known as a Nigerian 419 scam.

Rempel said he borrowed $55,000 from an uncle in Mexico and his parents gave him $60,000 on CREDIT to cover fees for transferring $12.8 million into his name.

i do?

Should be Lemming -ton

A 26-year old man decided to have a cup of coffee. He took a cup of
water and put it in the microwave to heat it up (something that he had
done numerous times before). I am not sure how long he set the timer
for, but he wanted to bring the water to a boil. When the timer shut
the oven off, he removed the cup from the oven. As he looked into the
cup, he noted that the! water was not boiling, but suddenly the water
in the cup 'blew up' into his face. The cup remained intact until he
threw it out of his hand, but all the water had flown out into his
face DUE to the build up of energy. His whole face is blistered and he
has 1st and 2nd degree burns to his face which may leave scarring.

He also may have lost partial sight in his left eye. While at the
hospital, the doctor who was attending to him stated that this is a
fairly common occurrence and water (alone) should never be heated in a
microwave oven. If water is heated in this manner, something should be
placed in the cup to diffuse the energy such as a wooden stir stick,
tea bag, etc.., (nothing metal).

General Electric's Response:

Thanks for contacting us, I will be happy to assist you. The e-mail
that you received is correct. Microwaved water and other liquids do
not always bubble when they reach the boiling point. They can ACTUALLY
get superheated and not bubble at all. The superheated liquid will
bubble up out of the cup when it is moved or when something like a
spoon or tea bag is put into it.

To prevent this from happening and causing injury, do not heat any
liquid for more than two minutes per cup. After heating, let the cup
stand in the microwave for thirty seconds! before moving it or adding
anything into it.

Here is what our local SCIENCE teacher had to say on the matter:
'Thanks for the microwave warning. I have seen this happen before. It
is caused by a phenomenon known as super heating. It can occur anytime
water is heated and will particularly occur if the vessel that the
water is heated in is new, or when heating a small amount of water
(less than half a cup).

What happens is that the water heats faster than the vapor bubbles can
form. If the cup is very new then it is unlikely to have small surface
scratches inside it that provide a place for the bubbles to form. As
the bubbles cannot form and release some of the heat has built up, the
liquid does not boil, and the liquid continues to heat up well past
its boiling point.

What then usually happens is that the liquid is bumped or jarred,
which is just enough of a shock to cause the bubbles to rapidly form
and expel the hot liquid. The rapid formation of bubbles is also why a
carbonated beverage spews when opened after having been shaken.'

According to: http://www.snopes.com/science/microwave.asp, it can happen.
well, looks like this guy wasn't paying attention during science classes...Stri the water before you start heating it.
 Place the cup off center on the turntable. 
Use the proper time / power setting.
Don't bring it close to you face.
Be careful whenyou remove the cup from the unit..

Use common sense.

they tested this one on Mythbusters...and it is true, when you microwave water with impurities it boils and when you microwave it without impurites it Super-heats and when you drop in say a fork(what they used) it explodes.

Well, I've been heating water in a microwave for years.  I have a coffee maker but I still use the microwave if I want hot water for tea.  Obviously, care much be exercised in setting the proper time, and the proper time varies by microwave.  My microwave oven is over 20 years old and is not as powerful as newer ones, so it takes longer than 2 minutes to heat a cup of water.  Clearly, the user needs to be familiar with their microwave to use the right settings.

Hmm, impurities vs. no impurities, for the same length of time, right? So, how are we to know whether our the water we've chosen to microwave has impurities?  Most city water supplies probably have some impurities, so that fact can probably be assumed.  But, what about purchased bottled water?  Can we assume it has no impurities? I doubt that's a safe assumption.  So, I'd like to see more detail on this.  You said Mythbusters says, "... when you microwave it without impurites it Super-heats and when you drop in say a fork(what they used) it explodes."  But, again, heating for how long?  If you only heat it for 20 seconds, can it still explode?  I don't think so.

Bacck to my question.

Why? Because I am interested in which people think has a worse effect on you. I have friends who do both (not me), and I am just interested what you all think. What are your reasons for and against. Why or why not?They are best when taken together.Want to know something about Marijuana that your school probably failed to teach you?

It removes your motivation in life.
I've seen this happen far too often. People get into the habit of just doing it without thinking, and they get stuck in that state. The drug becomes a safe place to go. You should look at how many people use Marijuana who go to college, complete college with the DEGREE they intended, and what kind of college they went to.
Look at how many of them have jobs they enjoy, and how much they end up making.

Also, it is a gateway drug. This, most schools do teach you.
You think Marijuana is safe all the sudden, and your brain, a bit dumber at that time, decides: "METH!" all the sudden...


People who become alcoholics end up with motivation problems as well.
Also, alcohol is a depressant, meaning, EVENTUALLY, it WILL make you sad after a bit too much. Then you vomit, manage to make a baby, have a 24 hour HEADACHE, finally fall asleep for 17 hours, and wake up RELATIVELY well again. One month later, you receive a letter with DNA test results, and child support payments to make. Not worth getting drunk, in my opinion. Quote from: Zylstra on February 10, 2009, 09:42:57 PM

Also, it is a gateway drug.

Wonder what goes on in those caves?  Peckerwood's not TELLING, is he... hey wait a second, are the Oompa-Loompa's with al-queda too, or just a few defects from Wonka?
Because if there's one thing I don't want to see is a LITTLE red-faced midget with green HAIR with dynamite strapped to them screaming "DEATH to infidels". Just seems... ironic, I suppose.

I also imagine anybody giving them burn lotion becomes their master... which logically means we must keep all burn lotion out of the hands of al-queda.

Carbon:Should like this...


The logic is straightforward: Plants need atmospheric carbon dioxide to produce food, and by emitting more CO2 into the air, our cars and factories create new sources of plant nutrition that will cause some crops and trees to grow bigger and faster.

They waste 1/2 the tree!

uh, no. these 10's of billions of cubic feet of co2 emmissions annually emitted into the atmosphere globally, are trapped and assist in the composition of the infamous greenhouse gas effect. Yes, putting some back into the atmosphere is a good thing, all things in moderation remember, but its not beneficial by any means at the rate its being emitted.

Here's an interesting animated movie I stumbled upon a while back, its still in production, but you can WATCH the short trailer and stuff. Its called 9, looks interesting, albeit violent as far as most MODERN animation goes.

I'll probably go see it when it comes out on September 9th of this year. Assuming there are no delays or anything, I'm really looking forward to Terminator 4 coming out this May though...That looks pretty cool. I love Tim Burton movies.
What are those little guys supposed to be?Very interesting.
Not sure exactly, looks LIKE somehow we (humans) managed to destroy the WORLD, somehow the little guys got replaced to do something. I'm wondering if the green color is a hint at a possible nuclear war that took place. Dunno for sure, looks interesting though.

Thanks to a new hard DRIVE my friend gave me, I have now made this video:

Opening a Hard Drive

Basically, in the video I open the hard drive and remove the platter, arm and magnet.

Why you might ask? Well, I'm trying to answer that too....


Oh, the last few seconds of the video are hilarious.  That was very cool.
What would've been better is if you would have put it back together and booted to it.
That would be amazing!

Oh, the last few seconds of the video are hilarious.

I currently have another hard drive on stand by for JJ 300's idea.

Oh, fair warning, there fragile, separate with caution unless you want magnetic flakes everywhere. And for the record, I've seen many drives with a single magnet. I think its cheaper if your coil is sensitive enough to north and south poles. Did you check out the video I posted with the musical read arm?

do you belive it will happen on dec 21st 2012? I think there is a good possibility because the people that predicted this have been right about everything so far..
http://www.survive2012.com/Yes. Quote

The Long Count CALENDAR of the Ancient Mayans ends on Dec 21 2012. There isn't much information regarding what the Mayans thought would occur in 2012, but the consensus of opinion is that there will be great change. To some people this means a positive, spiritual change. Other, like myself, consider that a catastrophic event may have been predicted. Read more about the Mayan Calendar.

nobody knows what will happen in 2012!
There is zero scientific evidence that anything will happen, but there are numerous things that could easily threaten the human species in the year 2012, such as a geomagnetic reversal, asteroid strike or supernova. Or soemthing more intimate, like a flu pandemic, or a nuclear war.

One thing to think about.  How come they did not finish December?

I don't believe such things, I've read about those thousands of people who committed suicide because of such predictions in the past. Such a waste of life and TRP, and Internet space, and Ink and Paper and what not!

do you belive it will happen on dec 21st 2012?

I found out about this about a month ago and managed to get one.

It's called Lucid Dreaming.

Definition from dictionary.com: characterized by clear perception or understanding; rational or sane: a lucid moment in his madness.

Basically, it's a dream that you have control of, so you can do whatever the heck you want to do in it, with no laws or rules, official or unofficial.

It is learnable, you just need to increase your dream recall, so if you keep a dream journal next to your bed and write every dream in it that you have, this should be pretty easy to do.

There are several methods to induce it.

But you'll just have to experience it yourself.
Linky. Site with tutorials and dream journals so you can understand what I'm blabbing on about 

- dairymanInteresting, but I'm not a fan of writing DIARY's.when I first read about this lucid dreaming stuff, I didn't even REALIZE it was different then what most people could do. I've been ABLE to stay asleep after realizing that I was dreaming long after I realized that I was dreaming as long as I remember. Of course some of my earlier experiments with it usually ended with me being turned into a vanilla wafer cookie and eaten by a vampire which was kind of off-putting.

Very seldom, I'll wake up, be able to open my eyes... but completely unable to move anything, like my body is still asleep. I wasn't even able to control my breathing, it was scary at first- seems to happen about once a month now. It's especially annoying when I can see the clock and NOTICE I'm 15 minutes late leaving for work, but am completely paralyzed.

Other times, I'll realize I'm sleeping and think, *censored*, I wonder what time it is... and wake up purposely just to check the time, LOL.

Interesting, but I'm not a fan of writing diary's.

well, maybe your just having dreams you'd prefer not to put on paper.

why does this seem so familiar, since some dreams of mine seem to be that i dream about something happening to me some where and the next day or week or whatever, it happens just like in the dream.

and this cant be Deja Vu.

Dreams that recur (or repeat themselves) is a clear indication that some issue is not being confronted or that it has not yet been resolved.  Your anxieties about a certain situation that you are struggling with may also cause you to have recurring dreams.

Sometimes that happens to me too. I had a dream that I saw my friend over the fence on our house, and next week, the exact same thing happens.


I tried Hypnotic Hallucination and boy, what a weird experience that was. I was only dreaming for about 5 minutes though, or so I think...

probably need a definition for this kind of dream. trying to coin this one, Fream: Future Dream, where you dream about an event then it happens later on.

I am not a fan of any of the teams but I think the Cardinals will win.  What do you think?My wife and I just saw a Cardinal. Little rare in my parts. I'll take that as a sign.
Not sure if I'll ever SEE a Pitt Steeler loladded pollcardinals

I didn't want to BUMP the topic so I wrote it here.

The link to SpywareInfo Forums in the "WOULD you like to learn to fight malware?" thread in Computer Viruses and SPYWARE, is outdated.

The new link is here:

Btw, I got ACCEPTED into training. (again)Are you sure that's the link?

The Wall Street Journal and USAToday, thanking America for its MONEY. They also posted these ads proudly on their blog. The reaction from actual Americans was, um, harsh.

ONE News has gained access to the personal files of American soldiers, uncovering military secrets from the most powerful nation in the world.

In November last year the US Defence Department banned the use of portable data storage devices.

However, Chris Ogle from Whangerei got more than he bargained for when he bought an MP3 player from an Oklahoma thrift shop for $18.

When the 29-year-old hooked up the player he discovered a playlist he could never have imagined - 60 files in total, including the names and personal details of American soldiers.

"The more I look at it, the more I see and the less I THINK I should be!" he says.

Some of the information appears to be a mission briefing.

ONE News found amongst the files lists of soldiers based in Afghanistan, along with the names of some personnel who have fought in Iraq and cellphones numbers for soldiers based overseas.

ONE News called some of the numbers and the phones are still active.

The files that the numbers were located in are marked with a warning saying the release of its contents is "prohibited by federal law".

There are also details of equipment deployed to the bases and private information about soldiers, such as social security numbers and even which ones are pregnant.

"One of the first rules of military endeavour is not to give the opposition anything WHATSOEVER that they could use to compromise your position, in any way at all," says Peter Cozens of Strategic Studies at Victoria University.

Most of the files found are dated 2005 and seem unlikely to compromise US national security, but experts contacted by ONE News say they could put the individual soldiers at risk.

"This is just slack administrative procedures which are indeed a cause of embarrassment. And it's the sort of thing which ought not really to be in the public domain," says Cozens.

The US Army and the American embassy will not comment.

What I want to know is how did it get on the mp3 player?

No, I saw this on the tv news. Its a whole pile of word documents, txt documents, and excel documents - nothing to do with voice records

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooo i lost, arazona lost, noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooPlease stop wasting everybody's time with your pointless topics such as this one. Not everybody LIVES in the U.S and thus not everybody cares about the meaningless football game that they EVANGELIZE to the position of some sort of ultimate contest, when in fact its a bunch of dudes in tights wearing way to much padding trying to spank each other. I don't see what's so manly about that.


Alright, so they aren't trying to spank each other. but it's a lot more FUN to watch if you imagine they are.Oh, you were talking about football? Quote from: BC_Programmer on February 01, 2009, 08:46:46 PM

83 miles and they come out perfect...

Info Here...aww, see that must be the PROB, my cous'n rosco ALWAYS rushes things. So here we are, speeding down a country road in our beat up pickup, dead varmint cooking on the engine, when we happens upon a tasty MORSEL of coon hit by some other truck (We swear)- so we always takes off the varmint we has basting, which is usually a squirrel, since we just comes from the park, y'see, and we grabs us some dixie plates we keeps in the cab, and we has a LUNCH... might be why it comes out stringy. Same story with the goldfish, come to think of it, except it is usually already chopped up for us by rusty propellor blades of Bob-Joe's old boat, so we reduces the cookin time for that reason.

We were able to make a pretty good bastin sauce out of a smushed alligator that crawled up on the road and a few electrocuted crows. Also got some new alligator skin boots and some feathers in our caps too. I then we comes home and old mary-Beth is trying to figger out why we ain't feelin like no scalloped potaters or sweet iced tea, and we just sniggers to urself about them varmints we consum'd so recently. Except that one time the varmints we had didn't agree with us, on account o the large amount of rat poison we used to catch'em, I 'spose.. so there I was, eatin my scalloped potaters, and up comes the varmint escapin, no stopping it, so I just let's it fall onto my plate, so I just eats around it for a bit, 'verone LOOKS sees what I gots, till ol' uncle herb comes over, and asks me, "Can I have a piece?"


wow. That was a good one...

Fascinating and potentially scary story..

The Turritopsis Nutricula is able to revert back to a juvenile form once it mates after becoming sexually mature.

Marine biologists say the jellyfish numbers are rocketing because they need not die.

Dr Maria Miglietta of the Smithsonian Tropical Marine Institute SAID: "We are looking at a worldwide silent INVASION."

The jellyfish are originally from the Caribbean but have spready all over the world.

Turritopsis Nutricula is technically known as a hydrozoan and is the only known ANIMAL that is capable of reverting completely to its younger self.

Just agreeing with Tyler's point.

Without some colossal human stupidity, there's no way computers, or any electronic devices could "take over earth".

Personally i think they already have.

ahh, that may be true, but in order to take over the world, they would need to take over the jobs of politicians. Sadly, that won't work, since computers are the complete opposite of politicians. you ask'em to do something, they do it. And they do it efficiently. AND you don't have to pay them to sit in a big room together and talk about the weather.

Wow, wasn't this a miracle!

Yes.
That was decision that a human had to take
 and it came out right.No wonder. The pilot was from my area, Pleasanton, CA He had less than 90 seconds to react and decide what to do...
On the dark side of things survivors have already reported being contacted by a group of scum-sucking Lawyers that want to file a class action lawsuit.Haha! They spent all that time looking for one of the two engines and then they realized one of them was still attached to the plane.Would flying into a flock of birds be an "act of God"
as the insurances companies often say?

So then, who is being named in the class-action suit?stupid birds! that is a miracle thoughAfter that miraculous landing, the local (Columbus) news featured a visit to Port Columbus International Airport and the airport's program to constantly monitor the area for birds.  They use explosives of various types to try to keep/scare birds away.  I presume all major airports do the same but, of course, this technique can really only provide some protection in the immediate vicinity of the airport.   It wasn't a "miracle" in my opinion. Miracles are supernatural magic events without logical explanation such as turning water into wine, making loaves and fishes to feed 5000 people out of 5 loaves and 2 fishes, etc etc. What happened to that flight was the result of excellent airmanship by a very professional and able pilot. Also a very well designed plane that stayed afloat long enough for everyone to get out.
Well, I agree, if you apply the biblical standard of a miracle, this is not truly a miracle.  But, how often does the word miracle get used to describe events which are not really miracles?  Quite a lot, just as many other words are used in ways that stretch their TRUE meaning.

As you said, that flight was the result of excellent airmanship by a very professional and able pilot.  And, the whole crew did an excellent job.  All passengers were evacuated from the plane in a matter of a few minutes.  Quote from: soybean on January 18, 2009, 12:27:52 PM
