Off for a soldier
What kind of deal is this, a lot of lying around in a hole in the the ground and yet more marching and shouting. The fitness test ?, cause let me tell you, you aren't gonna have the breath for any poetry mantras.

You need to motivate the tetosterone, I suggest the one about eskimo, 'parts', being 'migthy cold'.

The New Soviet Union (NSU)
It's only a matter of time isen't it, the way proliferation is going. The benifits og gaining nukes are obvious as are the rewards. Press on with the programme and when you have the nukes there are no sanctions or threats that will be the least bit relevant. So it would follow that we can expect every single problem state with suficient resources to gain them at some point in the future, that has to increase the chances of one going unaccounted for exponentially.

Ebola Outbreak
Actually i'm not incorrect. Airbourne just means it can survive longer than a few seconds in the air, if someone coughs on you thats plenty, and it also says it's comunicable through skin. It does say that it's preventable with hygene though.

Ebola Outbreak
It's comunicable through contact, or a couch from people who happen to be bleeding from every orifice. No cuts necessary to transmit it through the skin. When you consider the possibe number of infections it doeesen't take that much to completely overwhelm the medical services, we saw this with SARS in Asia.

Ebola Outbreak
If you don't have the propper gear to protect yourself, certainly, the last time not many did. African hospitals are not exactly known for having resources.

Ebola Outbreak
The reason it hasen't left the congo is that the carriers simply die off before the chain reaction of infection gets very far. We are fortunate that not many people in the congo fly to international hubs. Something like this in a metropolis would be next to unstoppable.

I remember the first time i tried french fries in a resturant, they dice the potatoes raw, cook it in a pan, not immersed in oil, and dry off the excess moisture and it's like a million times more tasty than what passes for french fries at fast food joints. It's one of my 3 cheats I use to fake being able to cook.

How was the next next day?
I found out today that snooze buttons on alarm clocks are dangerous contraptions, especially if you can just keep hitting the them until the hands on the clock move by the alarm position. I don't think the guy at work bought my sudden falling ill and much less calling it in at noon.

Switzerland Threatens to Expel Immigrants
We have one of that type of party as well, recent posters in the warmup to the election are all about how fantastic 'danish values' are, read other values are not so fantastic. I never thought I would say it, but at least the damn sweedes can keep the nationalists from getting a stranglehold on the formation of new governments.

Pavarotti e muerte
This is a memorial ceremony ? scuse me then.

Pavarotti e muerte
I am not even into classical music, but such greatness should be deserved. Not my kinda thing, but different strokes for different people I guess.
-
Pavarotti e muerte
People die all the time, I didn't know him or his music. So i'm supposed to feel bad because he was famous ?

Pavarotti e muerte
I'm not really into the whole opera singer thing. Can't say I understand why people find it beautiful.

If you can become a woman for a week...
Become a master of breast fondling. No seriously sometimes it can be really hard to decipher what technique works best.

If not immediately treated the critter will die and fester in the urinary tract. The only cure is, you guessed it, amputation. The fish is a parasite that bores into another fish's gills, but for some reason it finds the scent of human urine irresistable.

Interesting that some of these parasites clearly posess mind and behavior altering abilities, the slug one leads it's host into the open to be eaten by birds, the crab one steers it's host around like a beast of burden.

A 500-Mile Commute Without Gasoline?
Well you still need energy to make electricity, the cheapest is coal, which is worse than gasoline for the environment. So.

The music thread
Ellington Indigoes, a collection of remastered big band compositions, and blue in green (Miles Davis) is on my mp3 player. It's all very sunday morning. Nevermind that ambient muzak, this will melt your strees right off.
