I don't think so! Keep up the good works ~S.O.S~, and may the Almighty bless you!

Aqua and red wine. Found and nuked a piece of old pizza too.

Two fraternity brothers decide to go sailing one afternoon and become lost. After twenty hours with nothing to eat or drink, one of them spots a lamp floating by. He picks it up and a genie pops out. The genie notices the poor condition of the brothers and grants them one wish between the two of them.

After a lot of arguing over who gets the wish, one of them blurts out, "I wish the ocean was made of beer."

Magically, the ocean turns to beer.

Infuriated, the other guy yells, "You idiot! Now we have to p*ss in the boat!"

If you still have space around your monitor .....

If the electron were sitting still at a certain distance away from the nucleus, then the coulomb force would pull the electron into the nucleus. Since the electron is moving with a given velocity, call it V, then the coloumb force causes centripetal acceleration towards the nucleus. Remember, in centrifugal motion there is no centripetal velocity, only acceleration. Therefore, this combination of the tangential velocity and centripetal acceleration causes the electron to orbit around the nucleus.

Also, consider the p-orbital in an atom. If we solve schrodinger's 1-D equation for the n = 2 orbital, we find that the electron is allowed to exist anywhere except very close to the nucleus or very far away from it (at the end of the orbital radius).

Remember, however that this is only the one dimensional equation. If you solved the 1-D schrodinger equation for n=1, or for your hydrogen atom for example, we find that the electron can exist anywhere except the end of the orbital radius. So from the result it would seem that the electron is actually allowed to move closer and closer to the nucleus. This is not the case since the waveform for the n = 1 solution allows the electron to exist in a hollow sphere, or a 2-manifold. If you were to solve the 3-D schrodinger equation for n = 1, then you would get a wave form similar to the solution for 1-D at n=2; in other words if you solve the 3-D equation, you …

...... There's only been one accident in 60 years where radiation was not contained ......

I assume you are referring to the nuclear accident next door to your country, in Belgium.

If Chrome makes it's competition improve their product, it has succeeded!

Mine have been answered too by the same organization. Great for doing homework. May the Superior Omnipresent Being bless them with all force!

Superior Omnipresent Being? SOB may be an unrighteous remark.

proton beams moving at almost the speed of light and then smashing each head on? Does that happen in space?

that might sound sarcastic sneekula but its an actual question,

Anybody?

To an almost unlimited extent, and not only proton beams. Open your eyes, think space, even a small corner of our galaxy is huge and filled with stars forming and collapsing.

I have some guys in my science class that look a lot worse than those chimps!

The Bush administration has already promissed $1,000,000,000 to far away Georgia for rebuilding.

Our bridges at home are in sad shape too!

Hey you can't have a good election without the jackass party. I am serious Democrats have a donkey also called a jackass as there animal and I don't think they could have picked one that fits them better.

More people get killed annually by donkeys than elephants. Now that is Republican humor at its finest!

There are so many violent events in our near space, much more violent then the little puff at CERN. Yet the space is not littered with tiny black holes, I think and hope.

Q: "What do you call a psychic midget who just escaped from jail?"
A: "A small medium at large!"

A little black hole wouldn't be the end of the whole galaxy, just Earth or maybe our solar system. Remember our galaxy has already a rather large black hole near its center.

Actually, the little black hole thing came up during a BBC interview of 7 year old school children.

A woman tells her friend that she is getting married for the fourth time.

"How wonderful! But I hope you don't mind me asking what happened to your first husband?"

"He ate poisonous mushrooms and died."

"Oh, how tragic! What about your second husband?"

"He ate poisonous mushrooms too and died."

"Oh, how terrible! I'm almost afraid to ask you about your third husband."

"He fell down the stairs and broke his neck."

"Broke his neck?"

"He wouldn't eat the mushrooms."

A bratwurst on a pretzel bun and a tall glass of weizen beer.

Palin (Governor of Alaska) would be a breath of fresh air in Washington, just like George Bush (Governor of Texas) was in 2000.

Just some errors you need to correct:

# put the prompt string inside the function's ()
choice = raw_input("Look around or go back to the field(look or field)")

# don't forget the : to start the statement block
if choice == "look":  
    print "You find a fishing spear and some clothes, and you put them on."
    print "with the fishing spear you go and try to fish you succeed and get 4 fish"
    print "Do you want to go back to the field or go look in the forest?"

I would say "Sarah Palin for President" since she not such a lefty, and is not connected to the shameful "Keating Five Scandal."

Pretty boring web site.

Some famous quotes:

I'm most amazed by the fact that the race is between the left, the lefter, the really left, the really lefter, the my-god-I'm-left, the oh-yeah-I'm-even-lefter, the I-am-by-far-the-most-left, the right, the I'm-either-left-or-right-but-overall-wacky. Once the right gets squeezed out, it ought to make for an interesting election.

America is about freedom, the freedom to be uneducated, the freedom to arm themselves, the freedom to belong to a church group, the freedom to work or not to work, the freedom to guzzle gas and polute the air, all is included in the word. Any politician doubting these sacred principles is on the losing end, as far as the average voters are concerned.

Showing a toilet on early US TV was so taboo, that the first toilet ever seen on TV wasn't until the comedy series "Leave It to Beaver."

Things have changed a little since then!

Just another one before the good man leaves the White House (don't think McCain is quite as eloquent in his speeches). Here is UU speaking to Caterpillar company employees in East Peoria, IL on 01/30/2007:
"Trade is an important subject here at Caterpillar, and the reason why is because a lot of the product you make here, you sell to somebody else, sell overseas to another country. That's trade. And yet it's--it's a topic of hot debate."

A little Chinese history:
The men who served as guards along the Great Wall of China often were born on the wall, grew up there, married there, died there, and were buried within it. Many of these guards never left the wall in their entire lives.

You may want to contact (PM) user evstevemd, who has a similar problem. See what he figured out so far.

Actually your problem was that you called loadImages() before assigning some meaningful value to the direction:

self.direction = "RIGHT"   # ""
        self.loadImages()

Why do you guys keep posting the entire scam here - especially right after I pointed this thread to scambusters. Do think it gets more interesting after the 10,000th time we see it?

This thread is more or less for people on DaniWeb that have been exposed to scams. Is there a new twist? How did we handle them?

We could in the future always reference some website and never communicate at all!

We are all Americans.

UU talk:
"I believe a military of high morale is conducive to keeping the peace... not the worst but... when we find a senior who has to choose between food and medicine-that's not our vision of America."

hi im now startin a degree in computer science and i hav 2 complete a disatation... programming is not my strongest point so i have decided to do a research based project... can any help me with some idears on what to do???

A few English courses would help. Then you can do research on the design requirements for a database based operating system.

A beautiful young blond woman boards a plane to LA with a ticket for the coach section. She looks at the highly uncomfortable seats in coach, and then looks ahead to the first class seats. Seeing that the first class seats appear to be much larger and more comfortable, she moves forward to the last empty one. The flight attendant checks her ticket and tells the woman that her seat is in coach.

The blond replies, "I'm young, blond and beautiful, and I'm going to sit here all the way to LA."

Flustered, the flight attendant goes to the cockpit and informs the captain of the blond problem. The captain goes back and tells the woman that her assigned seat is in coach.

Again, the blond replies, "I'm young, blond and beautiful, and I'm going to sit here all the way to LA."

The captain doesn't want to cause a commotion, and so returns to the cockpit to discuss the blond with the co-pilot. The co-pilot says that he has a blond girlfriend, and that he can take care of the problem. He then goes back and briefly whispers something into the blonde's ear.

She immediately gets up, says, "Thank you so much," hugs the co-pilot, and rushes back to her highly uncomfortable seat in the coach section. The pilot and flight attendant, who were watching with rapt attention, together ask the co-pilot what he had said to the woman.

He replies, "I just …

I've worked in energy research, kiddo.

You really want me to believe that? I have a bridge to sell to you!

Has anyone tried Google Chrome yet? It's Google's web browser they released today for the first time as a public beta. Still quite buggy but it's looking pretty nice. If you try it lets hear what you think.

It's free, how can it be buggy? Buggy software is only written by folks who want to make money on the many upgrades! :)

THIS IS SIMPLY AMAZING

It's pretty cool. Stare at the following and see if you can find the hidden image. You'll be quite amazed when it comes into view.

If you have trouble seeing it, try getting close to the screen, even placing your nose on the screen, and slightly blur your eyes. This usually helps people to see it.

Typical official communications between Canadians and their neighbours to the South.

Americans: "Please divert your course 15 degrees to the north to avoid a collision."

Canadians: "Recommend you divert YOUR course 15 degrees to the south to avoid a collision."

Americans: "This is the captain of a US Navy ship. I say again, divert YOUR course."

Canadians: "No, I say again, divert YOUR course."

Americans: "This is the aircraft carrier USS Missouri. We are a large warship of the US Navy. DIVERT YOUR COURSE *NOW*."

Canadians: "We are a lighthouse. Your call."

Top 10 Reasons for being North American:

1. You can have a woman president without electing her

2. You can spell colour wrong and get away with it

3. You can call Budweiser a beer

4. You can be a crook and still be president

5. If you've got enough money you can get elected to do anything

6. If you can breathe you can get a gun

7. You can invent a new public holiday every year

8. You can play golf in the most hideous clothes ever made and nobody seems to care

9. You get to call everyone you've never met "buddy"

You May Be A Canadian ...

You're not offended by the term "Homo Milk"
You eat chocolate bars instead of candy bars.
You drink pop, not soda.
You don't hold your hand on your breast when you sing the national anthem.
You know that francophones, or anglophones are not electronic devices.
You don't care about the fuss with Cuba, it's just a cheap place to travel
to and has good cigars.
When there is a social problem, you turn to your government to fix it
instead of telling them to stay out of it.
You're not sure if the leader of our nation has EVER had sex and don't
want to know if he has!

I have a lot of friends in Canada (just a few miles away from my place) and they tell me that these are the Canadian national song lyrics:

"First come the black flies,
Then the Horse flies,
Then the Deer flies,
Then the snow flies!"

I like your sense of humour! I actually own a pair, got it from a tiny little town called Holland in Michigan. I have to check out if can walk on water with these things.

Oh, almost forgot my question:
Did W. really say this in Kalamazoo, MI?

We'll be a great country where the fabrics are made up of groups and loving centers.

This thread includes thoughts from and about our Canadian friends too.
