Probably, it occurs in everybody. The trick is to recognise it.

No, an IQ test score is based on averages. That's why it's different, it depends what the average is based on. It's a stupid test.

If your going to keep using that logic, how will I ever get to invade France?

That ain't the case. The Anglican Church pretty much left the debate to the people it affected, and apposed the Catholic viewpoint entirely. Mind you, they don't tend to have much of an opinion about anything.

I don't think opinions on management of the Secret Service are really going to be productive. The thing is nobody actually knows what they are doing, how or why. If they are doing the job properly, you will think you know pretty well what is going on when in fact you know almost nothing.

Tsunami is an abnormal weather pattern caused by either geological conditions or any violent interaction with the sea. Meteorites striking the sea would cause an abnormal wave to occur, as would tectonic activity. As a wave in the sea pretty much behaves as any other form of wave (it dosn't dissipate over distance until it hits something else) a tsunami can interact in unexpected ways. Some earthquakes create tsunamis that are simply wave trains that can do as little as disrupt the tidal patterns. However, disrupting the tidal patterns can create giant waves as a result. Mind you, the type of tsunami often focused on are the giant waves. Also, for some reason in all the movies I've seen they still refer to a wave from a meteor strike as a tidal wave. Idiots.

Nope, I just fragmented my reply somewhat. Sorry about that, I'm not always as lucid as I should be.
-
Yes, sorry about that. I don't quite know why I didn't class India as a major country, bit of an oversight.

Do you mean some sort of 'if you don't have a degree don't comment' forum?

China already is the dominating force in the Global Economy. America may be the only other Superpower, but it can't touch the sheer scale of China. It also helps that the government holds the power and the money in China, unlike the US where the presidency is bought and the cash base held by the private citizens. It's only because China is an introverted communist country that they haven't thought about taking control of the world economy.

That's about how I see it, ensuring people get what they should be given. Clarifying it avoids all this 'cut out their lungs' nonsense and the other reactionary gibbering. The only major countrys with the death penalty are China, the US and Japan. Although it's worth pointing out it's very rare in Japan and China is using it as a tool for human rights abuse. http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0777460.html Interestingly, China has allegedly adopted YT's idea of harvesting body parts. Because it's a rather loathsome and a travesty of justice, amnesty have something to say about it. http://www.amnestyusa.org/abolish/world/china/ State by state, US death penalty:- http://www.deathpenaltyinfo.org/article.php?did=121&scid=11

I've been out in a force 8 gale off the cost of Scotland. I was in a 60 foot ketch and it was swamped. A wave a tenth of that size would have shattered the ship into tiny wee little sinking chunks. Fear the sea.

I don't know. Blike is in pre med and I'd be worried if he was approaching that with an unscientific devil may care attitude. Which reminds me, what are you going to specialise In Blike? I hear anesthesiologist’s are pretty well regarded, with the advantage of avoiding most of the mess. I was working with a girl who's following it in her 2nd year residency the other night and it sounded quite glam.

Yes and yes.

Poor Derren, they are all after his book o' magic. http://lungfishstudio.com/derrenbrown/

True. However, he did buy him flowers and take him cottaging.

I wrote one in my head. I play it while I'm on the forums. I can't get it out of my hear for other people to hear it, I've tried. It makes my head hurt.

Go team justice O_o

I don't know. I'm quite tempted to buy a can and find an Austin Allegro to paint up. That would be da bomb, as the hip fellows put it. Sweet.

atinymonkey replied to bloodhound's topic in Mathematics
Sid Vicious, Bono, Fred Astaire, Holly Valance, Phil Silvers, Salvador Dali and Irving Berlin are the one's I care to mention.

NP, I only looked at it to see where he was from. Maybe, but you didn't leave it open for much discussion anyhow. It's more of a 'hey, read this' type of thread.

Normally to save time and general confusion, people construct sentances with both a subject and a predicate.
