  1. From here: http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2004/07/15/1089694484013.html?oneclick=true P.S. Dreamer when quoting from an article please post a link to it. Thank you.
  2. Flash Gordon gets my vote. Buster Crabbe & Jean Rogers were da bomb.
  3. It is a Canadian cartoon about a teenaged, chain-smoking, alcoholic, sociopath who has an imaginary friend "Allan the Magic Goose" and his father's alterego is "Drunken Welfare Man." Absolutely HILARIOUS. Totally Politically INCORRECT. http://www.kevinspencer.com/pluginpass.html Sunday nights on ComedyNetwork at 9:30 pm, go laugh your ass off. The Simpsons is my favourite mockumentary.
  4. I would recommend that you pick up a little app called "Norton Ghost." This allows you to make images of your harddrive partition and then restore them in under 5 minutes. If I lose a harddrive due to virus, hacker or hardware failure, I can restore my system in less then 5 minutes with my OS, drivers and all my appz with the settings that I prefer in minutes. It is the ONLY Norton product that I use, just the ease of system restoration makes it worth the $70 by far. http://www.symantec.com/sabu/ghost/ghost_personal/
  5. Have questions that require some thought, not just simple trivia. i.e. Karen likes 400 but not 300; she likes 625 but not 624; she likes 121 but not 122. Does she like 2500 or 2400? 2500 (perfect squares) Highlight line above for answer.
  6. ... trust the force Jedi makes the census list It's official: "Jedi Knight" is ON the list of religions for the 2001 UK census. A campaign to get people to write the entry on their census forms has succeeded in the term being included on the list of religions, alongside Church of England, Roman Catholic, Muslim, Buddhist and Hindu.

  7. Cell Typically the generation of a hydrogen plasma with the emission of extreme ultraviolet light from hydrogen gas is achieved via a discharge at high voltage, a high power inductively coupled plasma, or a plasma created and heated to extreme temperatures by RF coupling (e.g. 106 K) with confinement provided by a toroidal magnetic field. We report the generation of an intense hydrogen plasma and the observation of intense EUV emission at low temperatures (e.g. 103 K) from atomic hydrogen and certain atomized pure elements or certain gaseous ions which ionize at integer multiples of the potential energy of atomic hydrogen. NO PLASMA OR EUV EMISSION IS OBSERVED WITHOUT THE CATALYST. The power density was extremely high such that it melted the stainless steel leads to a filament which dissociated molecular hydrogen to atomic hydrogen, heated the cell to 700 °C, and heated the catalysts to provide a gaseous vapor pressure of about 100 mtorr. http://www.blacklightpower.com/images/display/cell4.jpg More info: http://www.blacklightpower.com/cell.shtml
  8. On your desktop, double click My Computer icon. Highlight your C:\ drive and right click. Click Properties and goto Tools Tab. Run the Scandisk/Errorcheck and then run the Defragmentor. After that is done, press Start button, goto run and type msconfig. This will allow you to pick which applications run at startup by going to the Startup Tab. Turn off things like Quicktime, Adobe Reader etc. to regain some CPU cycles. If you are using Windows 98/98se, ME and XP it is included, if you are using Windows 2000 or 95 you can download it here: http://www.perfectdrivers.com/howto/msconfig.html Under Windows 2000/XP you must logon as Administrator to run or highlight the msconfig.exe and hold shift-control and right click. Your menu will now have the Run As option, allowing you to run it without logging out and back on as Admin.

  10. ...it is a continuation of life that came before.
  11. I believe that it is possible with the right technology. And some claim to already have done something close to it. Unlimited clean energy from the vacuum No dependence on foreign oil from politically unstable areas No pollution No degradation of the biosphere No dependence on strategically vulnerable centralized power and distribution systems No radioactive waste disposal problems The Motionless Electromagnetic Generator (MEG) Has produced up to 100 times more power than was input, by extracting free energy from the vacuum. The MEG has been independently constructed, and its overunity performance independently replicated, by other researchers. US Patent awarded March 26, 2002. Invented by Tom Bearden and four colleagues. More here: http://www.cheniere.org/
  12. Piercing the smog enshrouding Titan, new images from Cassini reveal an exotic surface covered with a variety of materials. Full article: http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2004/04jul_titanrevealed.htm?list1049228
  13. the Black Mesa compound just collecting dust? How about these: Schrodinger's Kittens and the Search for Reality: Solving the Quantum Mysteries -John Gribbin The New Ambidextrous Universe: Symmetry and Asymmetry, from Mirror Reflections to Superstrings -Martin Gardner The Elegant Universe -Brian Greene
  14. The speed of light, one of the most sacrosanct of the universal physical constants, may have been lower as recently as two billion years ago - and not in some far corner of the universe, but right here on Earth. The controversial finding is turning up the heat on an already simmering debate, especially since it is based on re-analysis of old data that has long been used to argue for exactly the opposite: the constancy of the speed of light and other constants. A varying speed of light contradicts Einstein's theory of relativity, and would undermine much of traditional physics. But some physicists believe it would elegantly explain puzzling cosmological phenomena such as the nearly uniform temperature of the universe. It might also support string theories that predict extra spatial dimensions. Full article: http://www.newscientist.com/news/news.jsp?id=ns99996092
  15. A team of astronomers have found a colossal black hole so ancient, they're not sure how it had enough time to grow to its current size, about 10 billion times the mass of the Sun. Sitting at the heart of a distant galaxy, the black hole appears to be about 12.7 billion years old, which means it formed just one billion years after the universe began and is one of the oldest supermassive black holes ever known. The black hole, researchers said, is big enough to hold 1,000 of our own Solar Systems and weighs about as much as all the stars in the Milky Way. "The universe was awfully young at the time this was formed," said astronomer Roger Romani, a Stanford University associate professor whose team found the object. "It's a bit of a challenge to understand how this black hole got enough mass to reach its size." Full article: http://www.space.com/scienceastronomy/heavy_blazar_040628.html
  16. http://cryptome.org/aurora-eyeball.htm Kinda reminds me of the movie "Chain Reaction" with Neo, err Keanu Reeves.
  17. http://www.sciencefictionforums.net and it is available. (Domain.com search)
  18. You might want to try; ALL SOUND RECORDER. It lets you record any type of audio file into mp3. You simply play the file using its regular player; REALPlayer, Windows Media Player, FlashMediaPlayer etc and record with ASR. It is also very useful for recording sound clips from DVDs without having to rip the entire DVD. Free trial download: http://www.audio-ware.com/downloads/allsoundrecorder.exe
