very clear, almost invisible

So-called because it dissolves to give a colourless solution, CLEAR is currently a favourite in European gay clubs, meaning it is only a matter of time before it will make its way over here. It gives a dreamy sort of high that works by actively inhibiting neurotransmitters. This causes a slowing of synapse reactions to such an extent that sound and other sensory perceptions take almost a hundred times longer to be detected by the brain. This results in the user feeling totally disassociated from their surroundings. The funniest thing about CLEAR is that in high doses it leads people into thinking they are invisible.

Subject: Colaborare - apa cu potential Zeta
Buna ziua,

Imi permit sa va dau cateva randuri despre Henri Coanda, din spusele unui american care i-a continuat cercetarile.

Cu putin inainte sa moara, Henri Coanda i-a dezvaluit unui confrate mai tanar, american, marea descoperire a vietii sale: „apa vie” O apa deosebita, cu un potential urias asupra sanatatii umane, pe care savantul roman o cautase calatorind in diferite zone geografice ale lumii, populate de oameni ce traiau peste 100 de ani. In calitatea sa de specialist in fluide, Henri Coanda a descoperit ca fulgii de zapada sunt vii. El a cercetat viata fulgilor de zapada in diferite zone de pe planeta si a facut descoperiri de importanta vitala in cursul calatoriilor sale, cu consecinte de ordin practic. Dupa 5 ani de cercetari, putea sa prezica durata medie de viata a oamenilor, din orice loc de pe glob, pur si simplu prin stabilirea calitatii apei!

To produce this unique golden cloth, 70 people spent four years collecting golden orb spiders from telephone poles in Madagascar, while another dozen workers carefully extracted about 80 feet of silk filament from each of the arachnids. The resulting 11-foot by 4-foot textile is the only large piece of cloth made from natural spider silk existing in the world today.

“Spider silk is very elastic, and it has a tensile strength that is incredibly strong compared to steel or Kevlar,” said textile expert Simon Peers, who co-led the project. “There’s scientific research going on all over the world right now trying to replicate the tensile properties of spider silk and apply it to all sorts of areas in medicine and industry, but no one up until now has succeeded in replicating 100 percent of the properties of natural spider silk.”

Dr. Strangelove: Mr. President, it is not only possible, it is essential. That is the whole idea of this machine, you know. Deterrence is the art of producing in the mind of the enemy... the FEAR to attack. And so, because of the automated and irrevocable decision-making process which rules out human meddling, the Doomsday machine is terrifying and simple to understand... and completely credible and convincing.

The Legend of the Penis Mushroom

There is a mythical shroom that is unlike any other shroom. For, you see, this mushroom looks like a penis—not just a little bit like a penis, as many mushrooms do, but exactly like a penis. Perhaps you’ve heard of it? And although mushrooms usually spring forth from the earth as if from the toes of the gods, the penis mushroom is about as natural as a cocker spaniel. In other words, it’s totally man-made and if it were ever placed in the wild it would die instantly.

So what is this magic little cock-looking guy all about? Where did it come from? Who made it? I recently sought to answer these questions and was met with a dizzying world of magic, lies, and unsolved murder. And I was tripping balls the whole time, too.

forecasting weather and profits

After predicting a hot summer with record temperatures, the Met Office had to correct its forecast on Aug. 21, saying that there would be heavy downpours instead. More than twice the amount of rain fell in July than the long-term average.

This kind of forecasting failure costs supermarkets money. In response, Tesco has set up its own weather forecasting team. After three years of research, the six-person team has created its own software, based on the weather and shopping patterns of 12 British regions over the last three years.

nobody told me this when i was a teenager

"You will notice that what we are aiming at when we fall in love is a very strange paradox. The paradox consists of the fact that, when we fall in love, we are seeking to re-find all or some of the people to whom we were attached as children. On the other hand, we ask our beloved to correct all of the wrongs that these early parents or siblings inflicted upon us. So that love contains in it the contradiction: The attempt to return to the past and the attempt to undo the past."

"We're all faced throughout our lives with agonizing decisions, moral choices. Some are on a grand scale, most of these choices are on lesser points. But we define ourselves by the choices we have made. We are, in fact, the sum total of our choices. Events unfold so unpredictably, so unfairly, Human happiness does not seem to be included in the design of creation. it is only we, with our capacity to love that give meaning to the indifferent universe. And yet, most human beings seem to have the ability to keep trying and even try to find joy from simple things, like their family, their work, and from the hope that future generations might understand more."

moment liric (si tehnologic, desigur)

In the second half of the 90s, a company called Be boldly entered the personal computing market with an operating system that was unlike any other. BeOS was highly modular and responsive, booted in mere seconds, made extensive use of threading, gave developers rich C++ APIs, and had a database-like 64-bit filesystem with support for journaling, indexing, and metadata. BeOS offered all of this while Microsoft was selling Windows 95 and Apple was still struggling to deliver features like preemptive multitasking.

Pod cu unt? Avem, doriti si ceva de baut?

Autoritatile din sud-estul Chinei au acoperit un pod lung de 300 de metri cu unt pentru a reduce numarul de sinucideri, relateaza Daily Telegraph. Toate partile podului pe care o persoana s-ar fi putut catara, au fost date cu grasime.

"Am angajat paznici de o parte si de cealalta a podului, dar aceasta metoda nu a mers. Am pus chiar si garduri speciale si pancarde pe care scriau "Nu va mai sinucideti aici".

Din pacate, nici aceasta metoda nu a mers, asa ca am dat tot podul cu unt. Nu se mai poate urca nimeni pe pod pentru a-si lua viata." au declarat autoritatile. De fiecare data cand cineva incearca sa se sinucida, aruncandu-se de pe pod, se creeaza cozi infernale pe strada, asa ca metoda cu unt este buna si pentru a reduce traficul din zona.

"Fratele puiului de extraterestru" prins in Mexic traieste!

Earl Rogers, legendary lawyer

Charles F. Mootry had met his wife when she was dancing in a seedy Los Angeles cabaret called the Club Theater, and married her with the intention, he told his friends, of putting her to work as a prostitute. Soon he took up with another woman and started saying that he wanted to get rid of his wife. Then he shot her—or so it seemed to everyone in the courtroom in December 1899. Neighbors testified that they had heard the couple quarreling before the gunshot, and Mootry’s contention that his wife had committed suicide was, to say the least, unconvincing.

Moreover, Mootry was not an attractive witness. He chewed gum constantly, leered at the jury, and once when two women he knew entered the courtroom, he beamed, clapped his hand to his mouth, and yelled out, “Oh, Mama!” Things didn’t look so good for Charles Mootry. On the other hand, he had gotten Earl Rogers to defend him, and Rogers was working on the jury with a ruthless skill and audacity that nobody else in the country could approach.

Rogers was not talking about his client. He was talking about marriage. Remember, he told the first juror, “those unforgettable days when you courted your girl in that little Illinois town … the thrill of that moonlit Sunday night when you sat holding hands on the steps of the First Methodist Church of Chillicothe.…” On he went, by turns lulling and compelling, through the courtships of every juror, and ended by gesturing to Mootry and saying how much he must have loved his wife to take her from stage to altar: “And, brethren, men who love greatly, no matter what their moral or social degree, do not slay those they love.” Mootry and his wife weren’t quarreling: she was going deaf, and Mootry had to shout to make himself heard; in fact, it was that very loss of hearing that so depressed her she took her life.

It all sounds preposterous, of course. But it didn’t when Earl Rogers was saying it. The jury acquitted Mootry on the first ballot. Afterward Mootry came over to Rogers and stuck out his hand. The lawyer recoiled. “Get away from me, you slimy pimp,” he said. “You know you’re guilty as hell!”

Mai demult, m-am taiat cu lama, insa acum nu am sa mai fac asa ceva", a spus Georgiana. Chiar daca are doar 14 ani, fata pare destul de matura, atat fizic, cat si in ceea ce priveste modul in care vorbeste. De asemenea, este destul de frumusica. "Nu este chiar asa sumbru.

This breed of Angora goat is one of several species of goats, sheep and cattle that are engineered to produce pharmaceutical drugs and other materials in their milk. Often referred to as “biofactories,” these animals are intended to provide inexpensive sources of biological products.

This variety of goat was engineered by the Nexia Corporation in Canada to produce spider silk in its milk for use in manufacturing bullet-proof armor and fishing line. The Nexia Corporation produced 40 such goats and sold a number of them to the U.S. Defense Department.

The goats are currently housed in former ammunition bunkers on the now decommissioned Plattsburgh Air Force Base in Plattsburgh, NY. The Nexia Corporation has since been liquidated and purchased by an oil and gas venture. The status of the remaining goats is unknown.

The types of bunkers vary from machine gun pillboxes, beach bunkers, to naval underground facilities, and even Air Force Mountain and underground bunkers.

Japan

Unable to capture the suspect believed to be the mastermind behind The Monster with 21 Faces, the police superintendent Yamamoto of Shiga Prefecture committed suicide by self-immolation in August 1985. Five days after this event, on August 12, "The Monster” sent its final message to the media:

"Yamamoto of Shiga Prefecture Police died. How stupid of him! We've got no friends or secret hiding place in Shiga. It's Yoshino or Shikata who should have died. What have they been doing for as long as one year and five months? Don't let bad guys like us get away with it. There are many more fools who want to copy us. No-career Yamamoto died like a man. So we decided to give our condolence. We decided to forget about torturing food-making companies. If anyone blackmails any of the food-making companies, it's not us but someone copying us. We are bad guys. That means we've got more to do other than bullying companies. It's fun to lead a bad man's life. Monster with 21 Faces."

After this letter, The Monster with 21 Faces was not heard from again. The statute of limitation for the kidnapping of Katsuhisa Ezaki, president of Glico, ran out in June 1995, and the statute of limitation for the attempted poisonings ran out in February 2000. No suspect was ever caught or convicted of the crimes, and the identity of The Monster with 21 Faces remains a mystery.

Around 1905, Prokudin-Gorsky envisioned and formulated a plan to use the emerging technological advances that had been made in colour photography to systematically document the Russian Empire. [...]
Prokudin-Gorsky's own research yielded patents for producing colour film slides and for projecting colour motion pictures. His process used a camera that took a series of three monochrome pictures in sequence, each through a different coloured filter. By projecting all three monochrome pictures using correctly-coloured light, it was possible to reconstruct the original colour scene.

Daca alerta nu este emisa, inseamna ca viata dvs nu este pusa in pericol. De asemenea ramane in picioare cele 50% pentru ca un eveniment sa se produca in Romania si 50% in alta tara.

From Russia with war gear.







Russia's own stealth jet bomber. They promise to have it here already this year and start producing it in series starting 2010. They tell that the design of the plane is still kept secret and those sketches are the only clue that people have, but as it is known it would be a decent F-22 competitor.

Submarine “Typhoon” as it was called in NATO documents or “Shark” as it was called in Russia. It is considered to be the biggest submarine in the world, with over than 170 meters (515 feet) long and 23 meter (70 feet) wide. It can carry 20 ballistic nuclear missiles and there were only six of those built. Only 3 left intact, but are staying now out of service with armament control blocks detached according to the agreement between USSR and USA signed by M. Gorbachev.

The Love and Anti-Love Drug.

Poetry it is not. Nor is it particularly romantic. But reducing love to its component parts helps us to understand human sexuality, and may lead to drugs that enhance or diminish our love for another, says Larry J. Young. Dr. Young speculates that human love is set off by a “biochemical chain of events” that originally evolved in ancient brain circuits involving mother-child bonding, which is stimulated in mammals by the release of oxytocin during labor, delivery and nursing.
