I drink so much sparkling water that I am buying a 20lb. Carbon-dioxide tank and will be making my own shortly. I go through about 2 cases of Talking Rain a week (though I have had to cut back since we dropped our Costco membership) -- fortunately my current place of work supplies all the free talking rain I can drink (but that job is ending this week - but then so are the 12 hour days, so it is a wash I guess).

For 'drink' drinks, I drink bourbon & coke in the winter and tequila & tonic in the summer.

There is nothing in that demo that is remarkable. He could be using the 60cycle (50 outside of the US) hum from household wiring; he could be taking from a local fm antena. w/o isolation there is no way to tell which part of the e/m spectrum he is taking his energy from. If it is local (earth-produced) then someone is paying to put power into the signal so it is not really free.

This is not really free either but...look here for real 'free' energy Nano-fibers could power your iPod. In Japan, they have installed piezoelectric mats under the turnstiles of their subway system to harness the power of those millions of commuters that walk through the turnstiles every day - similar projects are being tested in the hallways of apartment complexes.

It never ceases to amaze me that someone is always chasing free energy rather than trying to harness the little increments of energy we waste every day. If we were to insulate all the transmission lines around the country, there would be about 10% gain over the whole system. Like putting a generator on your bicycle to produce light - it seems like 'free' light but damn, it sure makes biking harder; but if you take just a little bit of energy from everyone (like the Japanese subway) no-one notices the extra work and adds up to quite a bit of energy.

I named myself after my favorite [s]Comic book[/s] <<okay, darn it - how do I do that strikethrough thingy??>> graphic novel from the 80s. GrimJack was one of the coldest/coolest characters ever!! I think there were about 90 comics in the series - which was just re-released and 6 new comics issued after almost 20 years of copywrite battles. I use it whereever I can so if you see a GrimJack or (as a last resort) GrmJck, it is probably me.

I can't remember where I got the Avatar but I love it (every once in a while one of the eyes will gleam).

Well the first one that came to mind is:

"Sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice"

But then Groucho came to my rescue:

From what I've seen, any discussion of any kind of scientific or pseudoscientific material on this board will nearly inevitably lead into a comparison with evolution. This is in addition to instances where the issue is brought up in terms of other beliefs, such as the depiction of Mike Huckabee given recently in the Presidential Poll thread by ZZucker.

I recognize that many people here believe in evolution. So, I would like to make a request of you. If you accept that the principles of evolution as generally taught in schools and universities now are true, would you please list the specific evidence that lead you to believe this?

Thank you,
-EnderX

Ender - very good question!
In order to talk about the principles of evolution, there are a couple of things that must be accepted (or not <grin>):
1) The universe is very, very old - the latest (revised) estimates put the age at between 11 and 20 billion years old, using astronomic observations (red shift, etc.);
2) The solar system is very old (currently believed to be 4.5 billion years old, counting from the ignition of the sun's fusion)
3) The earth is old - the oldest rocks on earth are approximately the same as the solar system (let's just wave hands here and say someone looked at radioactivity and lead) and after an incredibly long time, it cooled and so on.

If you can accept the above, we can proceed to …

I just want the actual view of the desktop.

I hope there's an ISO somewhere. I've looked everywhere.

I googled "amiga workbench emulator" and found (among others) this amiga site. I have a couple of Amigas around here somewhere - at least I saw my old 1500 on the upper shelf of my closet a while back and I have tons of software in the space under the stairs (out of sight, out of mind) -- still have not figured out what to do with them now.

Webster defines the scientific method (the basis for the study of everything studied) as;

principles and procedures for the systematic pursuit of knowledge involving the recognition and formulation of a problem, the collection of data through observation and experiment, and the formulation and testing of hypotheses

Now tell me this...who can accurately test "evolution"? I'm not sure of any scientist who has observed evolution taking place.

. Every scientist who digs up a fossil tests evolution; all it would take to disprove evolution would be to dig up anachronistic fossils like a dinosaur with a spear point in it or dino coprolite with human bones in it (just to choose the most obvious examples). Examples of proof evolution includes observing changes in mitochondrial dna over various populations.

A theory is just that...Theory. It must remain theory until it can be proven as a law. There is no Theory of gravity...there is a law of gravity. Likewise, there is no LAW of evolution because scientists and researchers cannot come to an agreement amongst themselves as to which proccesses are accurate. Why not? Because it is unobservable!

Sorry but there are no 'laws' in science ('science has tossed the use of "law" in favor of "theory".'). There are now just theories and hypotheses.

I hope this helps.

A number of hypothetical extrasolar drive mechanisms seem to rely on picking up that dust (mostly for hydrogen, if I recall correctly) and using it as fuel. At what speeds would it become impossible to do so?

Actually, the faster the ram scoop travels the more efficient it is -- at some point the increase in efficiency will intersect the increase in mass as the vehicle approaches the speed of light (somewhere below .9c) and the acceleration will drop to zero and the speed will remain pretty constant (Larry Niven has a couple of short stories that use this idea).

Well, the top layer has a plushy cthulu(sp), a bunny-man in a noose, assorted CDs (games, music and data), books, pay stubs, coffee stains (bottom layer), UPS -- there is more, it is BIG corner-type desk. I finally took my (portable??!) O.E.D. off the desk and put it back on the shelf, this left a nice blank spot so I can clean that area, start the process of picking stuff and deciding if it is to remain on the desk or go into a 'stuff' box (I have filled 2 computer paper boxes with stuff over the years and now those need organizing, sigh), then cleaning that area etc.

Chariots of the Gods is a very interesting book that tries to explain many things on Earth were actually created by spacement who visited here. It was the inspiration for several popular sci-fi tv series and movies.

There is actually nothing very interesting in CotG; every significant factoid mentioned in the book that was not an outright lie has been debunked - thanks for pointing to the wiki, rather than, say - pointing to one of these sites.

(digression) Here in Seattle there was an ice cream parlor in the 'U District' called DanKens - we used to call it Van DanKens - Ice Cream of the Gods. It was really, really good ice cream(/digression).

I used to visit some of these crackpot sites but they eventually began to run together - way too many bangs (!), weird underlining, and random capitalizations. I say "if any paragraph has more than one bang, they're a crank!!!"

(new digression) the British call bangs 'shrieks' - which I kind of like ie MATLAB GEEK: look right here you want a shriek so you 'shell escape' "(/new digression).

Actually, until very recently, Air Force aviators were under very restrictive LASIK policy - only low flyers (basically, helicopter jocks) could have the procedure. Other AF personnel not on flying duty have had the option since 2002 or so, previously any keratotomy procedure could be done only at personal expense and personal risk.

As a long time user of the AF health care system, I'm not sure I'd trust my eyes to an AF doc. He can give me pills for my cold or allergies OK, but....

Val

I have to cop to conflating PRK and LASIK under 'laser eye surgery' - I got much of my info from here and here. I was really more about 1) the 'rule of unforeseen consequences' 2) who has the most practice performing laser surgery on eyes.

I would rather go to a surgeon who has done thousands of successful eye surgeries. I really doubt that comparing your lo-cal military doc with military eye surgeons is particularly valid.

Hey, if you decide to go the laser surgery route, try and get an ex-USAF doc - Pilots need near-perfect vision uncorrected so the AirForce docs do thousands of these operations with near 5 nines success rates. In fact, they are so successful that there is a decided lack of submarine pilots. I know, you are thinking "wtf - how does that relate?" Well, let me explain - before lasik, wannabe pilots with bad eyesight would settle for captaining a submarine (I guess they were flying in water instead of air) -- now with lasik, they are going for their first love.

One of my nightmares when I was young (jr.hi.) was being chased by Grizzly bears,
Er, Grizzly bears roller skating
Well, actually Grizzly bears roller skating backwards I laugh now but I used to wake up in cold sweets with my heart racing. I can still picture them

There are still many parents that punish their children for being left handed. They think that the devil is left handed.

It is even built into our language: sinister (a sinister person) is Latin for left, gauche (oh, how gauch- ie socially awkward) is French for left and adroit (that was adroitly done - ie, gracefully) is French for right.

Jut to confuse thing when giving directions in French - droit is forward and adroit is righ, try hearing that distinction in Paris.

Norah O'Donell, a US TV commentator, looks like an angel and laughs like a fishwife.

Ooh -- do you have an mp3 of this?

There is a very interesting (possibly tongue-in-cheek) theory on handed-ness put forth by William H. Calvin in his collection of essays The Throwing Madonna. Homo Sapiens sapiens is the only mammal that is predominantly right handed - other species are roughly 50/50 whether left or right handed. I like his theory a lot - I especially like the all the essays in this book.

Have you heard of the 'big mac index'? It is an interesting attempt to compare the buying power of different currencies called burgernomics and here is the 2007 index: 2007 burgernomics.

I hope this puts some perspective to the concept of currency exchange rates. A little googling will probably bring up similar indices like Coke and such.

I hope this helps

I just got CRYSIS - all I can say is WOW! Huge map to run around in, multiple strategies (sneak past, hide and snipe, or full frontal attack) to use -- a really great follow-up to FarCry (though not a continuation of that story).

This game rocks!

And I am still working 12 hour shifts - I say "hi" to my partner occasionally. She is wonderful, 'low maintenance"(her term) and does not mind hearing the screams in the background as another enemy bites the dust/bites my a**. I bought her a new, bigger, digital tv for xmas -- and I join her in the living room where we both have our laptops.

<<why am I wasting my time here when i could be killing something -- bye>>

As far as ranking 5 aces of hearts against 5 aces of spades - announce at the beginning that you will be using bridge rankings for suits:
the hierarchy of suits: clubs, diamonds, hearts, spades. If I remember my wildcard poker, 5 of a kind beats a royal flush. Just start with the highest poker hands that come in just like regular poker and use the hierarchy of suits (5 aces with 3 spades and 2 hearts beats 5 aces with 3 spades and 2 clubs) to judge the best of similar hands; you could do this by eye long before a team of programmers could write, test, debug such a program. Post the poker hand rankings http://www.poker.com/poker-hands/. As soon as a really good hand comes in, you don't even have to look at the lessor hands. You do not have to compare every hand to every other hand, you only have to compare each hand to the best so far - replacing the best so far with the better hand (this is sort of a modified bubble sort so it could be programmed but why bother - your eyes and brain are the match for any computer program.) don't be intimidate by the number of poker hands that are possible, 5 aces of spades is the best possible hand and you are almost guaranteed that someone will have have that.

Have you decided how each person will get his hand? Will you have all the decks …

Hi,

Even though chkdsk says it is unreadable can you read it from windows explorer ?

Have you also tried putting disk in external caddy and reading from another PC ?

Denis

err, I should have been more specific, I guess - I click past the chkdsk at startup now (so I don't see the errors <grin>) and everything seems okay but I worry about the replicant drive. To be honest, much as I worry about the drive crashing/trashing my data, I can't stop myself from playing Crysis which is on that drive. As I said, I just purchased SpinRite, and plan on running it soonest but I worry about running it before I get rid of the replicant. I don't even understand how/why Windoze sees it as 2 drives.
<<couple of days pass here>>
So, to sum up, the drive is working okay as long as I don't re-boot, I am gamer who would rather game than try to figure out what is killing his drive, and i am going to fire up Crysis again real soon (I am working 12 hour days again and I need to kill things at home so I don't at work).

Somewhere along the line, my E: drive where I keep all my game/non-system stuff got replicated to F: Now when I boot, chkdsk comes up and says all these sectors are unreadable for both E&F drives. F: should not exist how do I rescue my system? I would at least like to get the replicant drive to go away - I just bought Spin-Rite but am not sure I should run it until I can reduce the drive count.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

I don't think it is a problem that can be solved by looking at the HJT log. I am going to close this and open a thread where the question is more appropriate

Gerbil has it correct! I also use Spybot Search and destroy and Ad-Aware as my cleaners.
I just bought a Toshiba notebook - the deal was so good I did not even try to get it with XP loaded - if Vista P***es me off too much, I will buy XP and dual boot. But like all 'branded' machines I had to go in and uninstall a lot of stuff that was just dogging the machine. I am sure Dell is the same.

ps my .sig is for my desktop, not my laptop (I bought the laptop so I could sit in the living room with my DW who has a laptop of her own - we do not IM each other <grin>)

Hi all,

I have AVG installed w/constant updates, I run spybot - S&D on alternate days with ad-aware, I have spywareblaster and spywareguard loaded.

AVG now takes over 18 hours to run.
Switching from one tsl task to another can take 10 minutes. And there seems to be no let up. I reboot occasionally (I generally keep my machine running for the BOINC processes) but rebooting does not seem to help.
Windows task manager generally shows 99% idle.
I just bought Crysis and I want to play but....

Thanks for any help you can offer.
Pure Networks is Network Magic, my internal network manager. I have ZoneAlarm installed and force all MS products to request permission before they phone home (and do not do automatic updates)

Please take a look at this HT log and see if there is something suspicious that I have missed:

Thanks, I cleaned that up but it did not help. Another, unrelated problem has popped up that is quite a bit worse - I will return after I clear this other thing up. I am going to post in the HijackThis area

thanks again for the suggestion

Hi all! On my XP machine most of my USB drives do not show up on the My Computer list of drives. I know it can be seen because it shows up on the 'safely remove drive' list and I can get to it via msdos (ewwww). I fixed this once somewhere in device management but can't remember where that was and I don't know why they keep disappearing (can't even see my mp3 players which really hurts - 2 weeks ago I loved German industrial rock - now, not so much. Oddly, my games USB is seen just fine, thankfully.

BTW, I just got Crysis -- this game is soooo awesome - you can cut down trees with the machine guns, shoot leaves that are blocking your view - the whole environment is alterable. Combine this with another round of 12 hour days (someone screwed up 4 years of H-1b files - it is real ugly -- if you think passport photoes are bad try looking at photocopies of them

Sometimes labels are put on because someone did that very thing (and may have sued).

<<Gawd, please -- I did not mean to start a "crazy lawsuits" thread, let it lie>>

I read somewhere that eating a few slices of sharp cheese before you go to bed makes your dreams more vivid or colorful. I was hoping that you might eat some sharp goat cheese to give you the flying dreams.

Dang! I only have Jarlsberg in the house - I'm going out for extra sharp goat cheddar tomorrow!

Every generation thinks the up and coming generation is declining in morals.

I like rap because it is poetry that rhymes and rhythm - it ain't Shakespeare but it ain't Rod McKuen either.

What really offends me is people who are easily offended.

Disagreement with the Coke Statement.

Dang - bit by another UL!

And while I don't know about 'Heathen', I vaugely recall reading about 'pagan' being a descendant of 'paganus', supposedly meaning 'country dweller'.

Yeah, that was the "rustic or villager (more rural vs city stuff)." part -- a little more in depth on the Christian Soldier thing - at the time Christians first came into political power it was mostly in the cities and towns so pagan referred to the dwellers in smaller hamlets, villages, etc or out on the heath (hence heathen).

This is what I love about this place - I keep learning!

Yule has a nice ring to it. Actually, that Santa Claus thing is based on paganism too, so you don't have to be too apologetic..

Actually, Santa Claus is based on a misunderstanding of the Dutch pronunciation of St. Nikolaus (sp. is various) back in the day when New York was a dutch city and from a coke ad in the 1930s (this is where he picked up the fat, jolly look). Nothing pagan about Santa; though some consider it an anagram of Satan (ain't it the truth, Church Lady!).

It is interesting to note that dictionary.com defines both pagan and heathen as "One who is not a Christian, Muslim, or Jew" - this sort of bothered me so I looked it up in my REALLY big dictionary (I am getting too old for the compact edition - anyone wanna buy me the full sized ed. for xmas? - I need one of those magnifying lamps read this thing) but the OED defines heathen (mostly) the same but adds (after a full page of dithering) mostly polytheists when uncultured and uncivilized; but says that pagan derives its roots from civilian or non-military (a Christian soldier reference) and rustic or villager (more rural vs city stuff).

but I digress HAPPY HOLIDAYS

I rank racism as probably the worst of the offenses but that may only be because it is often the most obvious, though it is now becoming closely wrapped in religious intolerance.

Here in Seattle a Sikh was attacked as a Muslim - this has to be a combination of 3 offenses, racism, religious intolerance, and stupidity. Sometimes, I think quietly to myself "if only ignorance were painful".

<but that would almost qualify as masochism>

> Oops, I did not expect anyone to take that seriously
Oh, did I sound serious? I suppose I could have used a smiley but I prefer not to. And to think we were talking about sense of humor. ;-)

Amen to that...

Heh, heh - hoist by my own petard! (really dumb expression - sorta means blown up by my own fart, so maybe it is appropriate)

I live in Seattle which is only Earth-quake prone - we don't actually get them all that much like they do in California but since I use FireFix - I picked up this cool little add-on eQuake Alert!!! which keeps me up to date on all the quakes of the world. Right now the most recent >4 quake was in Martinique an M4.6. Alaska is looking pretty active right now tool

Any recent (past hundred years or so) incidents you've got in mind?

How soon we forget!

Oklahoma City Federal Building - you can tiptoe around the groups and what they call themselves but Christian beliefs are 'fundamental' to their existence.

There, do you think that was enough gasoline? I could mention Waco, Idaho, and Montana but those would only be tossing candles in with the gas.

I have a couple of recurring themes in my dreams but I will stick with the positive one(s):
I am walking down a hill on a sidewalk and as i take a step, I push off with my toes and I rise into the air. My drift back to earth matches the downward angle of the hill so I am floating above the sidewalk. I can gain altitude by flapping my hands at my side. When I finally touch down, I can jump up even higher.

It is all very nearly zero-gravity-like in that I can push off on the sides of walls, roofs and trees. I like this dream very much - I like most of my dreams. I have a sleep disorder where w/o medication, I spend almost all my sleep-time in dream-state; this is very seductive because my dreams are quite science fiction like. This is also very dangerous because I do not get a lot of rest during my sleep time. Sometimes on weekends, I don't take my medication and I nap a lot.

No, I do not think this is related to the 400 lsd trips I took in the 1970s but....

I'm normally placid. Not sure if any of the above actually offend me ... just annoy me.

>> I think face-sucking in public is offensive
Why?
This reminds me of a quiz I was at before. There was a question about the irrational fear of clowns and I was thinking 'is there a rational fear' of clowns? I came to the conclusion that there wasn't. Heights, yes. Snakes, yes. Clowns... no.
How is face sucking offensive? I just don't see it is all.

Dang it?! Now I gotta think about how I feel - I'll get back to you when I get it sorted out

The clown thing - there is more to a clown than funny clothes and face make-up; clowns are often the only people (besides relatives) who think that they can just walk up to a child and be 'funny' when, in fact, tiny children need their immediate environment to be safe-ish so they can explore out beyond themselves. Clowns often barge right into the kid's space w/o preliminaries. I may not be explaining this very well, but put yourself in the place of 2 foot tall human with limited experience with how the world works and watch a garishly painted thing only vaguely looking like a person that is 2 or 3 times your size barges right up to you and looms over you.

I think there is a rational fear of clowns - at least it might start out rational

I am going to get creamed for this (gawd, I love my sense of humor):

If your a homo, take a bromo and wake up feeling yourself in the morning.

Then you are posting in the wrong forum. Start posting here and get your count to 200 before the end of the day...

Oops, I did not expect anyone to take that seriously - I suppose I could have used a smiley but I prefer not to. So I will explain:
I was being sardonic - I have been a member since 2004, if I wanted a high post count I would have one. I had my own, self-referential stream of posts going that I had hoped also pointed to the topic.

I have to admit that I love my own sense of humor way too much but I do hope some of it gets through to others.

Thanks for allowing the choosing of more than one offense - I am not sure about what you meant on the pda thing. I think face-sucking in public is offensive but I think holding hands, leaning on each other, or walking arm in arm is okay.

Same with the religion question, I think burqas, turbines, scarves, yarmulkes, crucifixes, etc are okay but proselytizing, sign-carrying, large angry mobs, etc offend me.

And the icecaps are shrinking on Mars.

It is true that Abdussamatov's theory claims that it is solar warming that is shrinking the ice caps on Mars but he has offered no support for his theory, completely dismisses any Greenhouse effect, and claims that CO2 has minimal influence on Earth's atmosphere and none on Mars'.

I am referring to the statement of one global warming "expert," who stated specifically that if just the ice in the north polar cap that is over the ocean were to melt, it would raise the sea level by three feet. He is wrong. Archimedes proved that a sunken body displaces its volume in water, while a floating body displaces its weight. The floating ice and the melted water both displace the same amount of water (it is water). So the sea level would not rise at all.

And if this clown is wrong about such a fundamental and well-tested law of physics, what else is he wrong about?

Ice melting off of land would raise the sea level, but he didn't include that ice.

Oh, you are referring to 'one, unnamed "expert"' to cast doubt on all of the science behind global warming. Sigh!

Hey, I'm just trying to get my count up to 200 before the end of the year.

I agree that there is some real science going on. Most of it implicates the sun getting brighter (Venus, Mars, and Titan are showing global warming too).

Venus is showing global warming?! Venus has an ambient temperature at about the boiling point of lead (@800 degs C) - it would take quite a change to show warming. It is postulated that Venus was much more earth-like in the past and that some sort of out of control (heh,heh - dang, I just love my sense of humor) global warming raised the temp to what it is now.

On the other hand, I have caught a lot of scientists and polluticians doing bad science:

- One hack said that melting the icecap over the Arctic Ocean would raise sea level by three feet. He totally ignored the laws of floating bodies.

What the hell is laws of floating bodies? <<you do know that in ALL other liquids, when it freezes, it gets heavier and sinks to the bottom - freezing here refers to the specific transition state when a liquid turns into a solid due to lowering of temperature - one does not generally refer to 1200 degs F [transition state of glass] as freezing but...>> If you are referring specifically to the idiosyncratic behavior of water molecules forming crystals in hexagonal rings making the specific gravity of water higher than the specific gravity of ice, then what scientists are actually referring to is the ice on the Antarctic …
