  1. Are you talking about creating a sub-network or sending data back to the wider internet?
  2. Yes, your standard house brick does attract other bricks. Your mass attracts my mass, our mass attracts other masses. You can directly calculate this yourself. FGravity = (Gm1m2)/r2 likewise FGravity = m1g1 FGravity = m2g2 Because gravity is weak, the force your bricks or even you produce is typically weak, but it is also very real. The Earth's mass is nothing special, there is just much much more of it relative to what is typically around us. You may want to look at the Cavendish Experiment. The man measured what you claim doesn't exist. In doing so he basically found G. With G, your weight and the Earth's radius you can find the mass of the entire planet. Yes, from the standard perspective the scale is upside down resting upon two chairs. From the flipped perspective, the Earth is resting upon two chairs which are themselves upon a scale. Now according to the scale there is a force pushing up on it. That would be the Normal Force. If you want to look at it another way, you can say that the two masses are attracting each other. That too is valid and in my mind, easier to understand. You can pretty easily prove that forces come in pairs for yourself. If you can stand on something that rolls, toss something with a decent mass away from yourself, you will see yourself move in the opposite direction. The force you exert will equal the force exerted upon you. Forces balance out, this includes gravity along with the rest of the forces out there. I find actual experimentation to work better than trying to build models. You actually test it and you don't need to take anyone's word for it or hit the "I believe" button. You'll know something to be true or not.
  3. This really reminds me of Daisy, though considering the number of bots out there I'm sure there are others that could produce similar results.
  4. If it were still on the Lira, the Lira could drop down in value, decreasing the(effective) labor and bribe costs to the point where it would be profitable to employ people. Since it isn't though, one should reasonably expect inflation, federalization and subsidies. One way or another market forces will try and resolve the supply/demand issue.
  5. this? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depressive_realism
  6. One scale with the bulk of one human test subject on the opposite side. Note: Previous attempt made with nonhuman test subject, test subject fled. Retesting with subject not recommended.
  7. That's a good way to put it Sad but true, that is the single lasting economic policy in all of human history. In theory you could make the whole system more flexible instead. Have the value of your money shift based on location. Be controversial but everything would work better.
  8. No, about how legal Hispanic immigrants don't refer to themselves as Latinos and that those who do are illegal. Very inaccurate as most sweeping generalizations tend to be and depending on who you are talking to, insulting. I see Hispanic, Latino, latinoamericano and latino americano, used as a self descriptive on a regular basis. Yeah, that was just kind of dubious without a means to ensure country fiscal policy follows suit. They aren't widespread by any stretch of the imagination, but even the US has what amount to local currencies in some places.
  9. It is due to gravity... If you want the simplified version it is that force which keeps an object from going through whatever it happens to be resting on. Ask yourself though or do a test on what happens if you flip a scale upside down and then stand on it. Now that you are on the bottom of the scale and the Earth is on top, what reading for force does your scale provide you?
  10. Not in XY males. If you have an extra copy or copies, it is fine to silence one or more of them.
  11. Well, yes... I was talking about what would have been the eventual mutual tidal lock between the Earth and Moon. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tidal_locking
  12. Not really, different Universes could simply have different physical constants. Some combinations permitting life and others not.
  13. Yeah. Only problem is it is happening so slowly that the Sun will have expanded prior to the process reaching completion. I can't help but wonder what it would have looked like from the ground. Imagine people taking vacations to "moonside" Earth to see it hanging in the sky.
  14. I wish to express my condolences. It is terribly sad when one has fallen upon hard times and must rely upon public limo services.
  15. There are more than two parties. Our elected officials do frequently compromise. In some cases though compromise isn't needed depending on which party ends up controlling what. The country is generally more capable of taking decisive action(for better or worse). Voting system is different leading to different strengths and weaknesses. At this point in time the Electoral College vote is closer to defacto-direct. A majority of states have laws compelling electors to vote for a pledged candidate and there exists a large potential for backlash if the vote ends up going against the popular vote. There is in fact a movement trying move things towards a direct vote. I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up going that way in the future. Every country has its share of ignorant souls. More important to recognize the differences. We can only hope down the line that politics and nation founding becomes more of a science.
  16. Mother Nature is already ahead of you. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiotrophic_fungus
  17. It was just another way of saying that there won't be any force observed. Sure, typical example given is for a falling mass. aEarth = (MassObject x 9.8 m/s2) / MassEarth
  18. I'm certain the Government already does have people in place. Main issue would be compartmentalized nature of the enemy. Individual cells. Separation of specialists, leadership and those desiring to martyr themselves. You can reasonably assume that electronic intel wasn't responsible for every successful drone strike. For that matter some of the drone strikes were likely staged. Have a "narrow miss" bolster someone's credibility or a "hit" cover an extraction.
  19. Obtain magic ticket(formerly owned by Harry Houdini). Use magic ticket to enter the movie Limitless. Steal NZT. Use NZT. Leave movie. Rewind and repeat as necessary.
  20. It'll have a gravitational attraction on other objects with mass. Though since there is no block, this particular force pair is gone or to put it another way zero force exerted downwards is balanced out by zero force exerted upwards. Forces are simple, they always balance out.
  21. only word that is close besides triptans is the non-English tripitans.
  22. Depending on the camera it may just be using an IR filter. Instructables is a good resource for modification projects: http://www.instructables.com/howto/ir+camera/
  23. Because the object has mass. In what you posted last: without the block there is no mass and thus no force produced. Assuming it is adjusted correctly, your bathroom scale will read zero if 'nothing' is on it. You can probably hold it stationary for awhile. You can do this in open space as well and two counterbalancing force pairs will still be present. I strongly recommend thinking of it as attraction and not falling. You attract the Earth, the Earth attracts you.
  24. I think the easiest way to understand this particular force pair would be to simply pick up something heavy and hold it over your head. You are going to feel the effects pretty quickly. No repelling going on.
  25. Could the observed differences balance out to yield the same value for G? ie. G = ar2/M a↓ r↓ M↑ In their own frame at least they would see the same value. Speed that gravity propagates at is also c, which is a constant for both.
