Just Chat! / you and me goin fishin in the dark

« on: 11/02/2012 16:42:40 »

this is probably a really duhhhhh question but havent humans played trickery for hundreds of years with catching fish? why havent the fish gotten smarter with what they bite? sure weve got better/ more realistic lures, but a worm on a hook? really how many generations of fish does it take to realize worms dont belong in water?

Technology / What does a transistor do in a complex LCR circuit?

« on: 08/02/2012 11:34:58 »

so ive just realized upon revisiting the site there is no Science of electricity and circuitry hmmm..
a queation i cant seem to find an answer to when dealing with an LCR circuit with several Z factors what would happen if you through a transistor into a z factor? how would that affect the other branch currents etc.

That CAN'T be true! / WIKILEAK vortex?!

« on: 21/12/2010 14:07:16 »

Where is this story in the international media? The combined naval might of twenty-seven countries is concentrated off the Somali coast allegedly to fight the poorly armed pirates who continue to act with apparent impunity. Or is there something far, far more serious?

42648.jpegOnce again the Wikileaks cables come into play. And what is revealed is terrifying. According to a report allegedly prepared by Admiral Maksimov of Russia's Northern Fleet, in late 2000, a magnetic vortex was discovered in the area of the Gulf of Aden. Russia, the PR China and the USA joined efforts to study what it was but discovered that it defied logic and the laws of physics.

The USA set up a center of operations in Djibouti, which soon became the HQ of the Combined Joint Task Force - Horn of Africa (CJTF-HOA) and monitored the vortex, which remained stable from its discovery in November 2000, according to the same report, until late 2008, when it started to expand. This, it appears, caused the USA to send a warning to the rest of the world and in response the following nations poured their military resources into the area:

Royal Australian Navy, Belgian Navy, Bulgarian Navy, Canadian Navy, Peoples Liberation Navy (China), Royal Danish Navy, French Navy, German Navy, Greek Navy, Indian Navy, Islamic Republic of Iran Navy, Italian Navy, Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force, Republic of Korea (South Korea) Navy, Royal Malaysian Navy, Royal Netherlands Navy, Pakistan Navy, Portuguese Navy, Royal Saudi Navy, Russian Navy, Republic of Singapore Navy, Spanish Navy, Swedish Navy, Royal Thai Navy, Turkish Navy, British Royal Navy and the United States Navy.
This is the largest naval force to have been assembled in human history. And it has been gathered to defeat what, half a dozen poorly, armed youngsters in cheap speedboats? What is going on?

42649.jpegThe photo shows a spiral of light which appeared over Norway on December 9, 2009. So strange was the occurrence, that according to a Wikileaks document presented to President Putin by the GRU (foreign intelligence unit), President Obama and Defence Secretary Gates were ushered into a secret military bunker, (2012 Alice). Why 2012?

This spiral suddenly disappeared, and a month later, the vortex in the Gulf of Aden seemed to project a worm-hole, like the one in this video:

You Tube: Norway Spiral

Notice the hole on seconds 7, 17 and 35.

Researchers* have pointed out that this Norway Spiral appeared at the same time that HAARP (High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program) and the LHC (Large Hadron Collider), CERN, were conducting tests. And how to explain this top secret report (CI/KR = critical Infrastructure and Key Resources) from the US Embassy in Oslo, Norway, sent to USNORTHCOM: http://www.whatdoesitmean.com/indexoslo337.htm

Marine Science / Are corals evolutionarily recent or ancient organisms?

« on: 03/11/2010 18:13:34 »

Ok well everyone knows about the pretty little organisms we call coral. but a question i have is, is coral a relatively new species?
Coral have a rough time with water temp. changes of about 2 degrees C. So they shouldn't have been around during the last ice age..right?
If thats true, how did coral come about or evolve from?
hmmm...
thanks!

Just Chat! / Monster: Energy (help pls)

« on: 18/03/2009 14:34:42 »

ok im not sure what other counties this drink is made but in america there is a popular energy drink called "Monster" for those of you who dont know what it is heres some information on it from wikipedia(i noe its a bad site but these facts are true)




The caffeine content of Monster energy drinks is 10 mg/oz (34 mg/dL, 1.75 mmol/L),[5] or 160 mg for a 16 oz can. Like some other energy drinks the packaging usually has a warning printed on it saying to limit the number of cans consumed in a day - to 3 for the 16 oz size, and it is not recommended for pregnant women, children under 18 years old, or people who are sensitive to caffeine.[6]

Ingredients[6]: Carbonated Water, Sucrose, Glucose (broken down sucrose), Natural Flavors, Taurine, Sodium Citrate, Color Added, Panax Ginseng Root Extract, L-Carnitine, Caffeine, Sorbic Acid, Benzoic Acid, Niacinamide, Sodium Chloride, Glucuronolactone, Inositol, Guarana Seed Extract, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, Sucralose, Riboflavin, Maltodextrin, and Cyancobalamin.









ok so ive got a couple serious questions. i love love this drink!! it is the most amzing thing in the world(opinion) i have 2 or three of these everyday (not an exageration) the least amount i can drink is one. if i dont have AT LEAST one everyday i get headaches which i assume means imm addicted to it(bad i no)
how bad is this really for me. my friends are getting worried and they have made it a habbit to take it away from me if they catch me drinking it. they keep saying it will kill me drinking it so much. ive heard stories about athletes dying from it etc. but i dont drink one b4 basketball practice etc. so i feel im pretty much safe. but im asking all of u friends here how bad is this really for me???


also i have ADHD and according to it sugar etc. should make me hyper. but when ever a i drink a monster i feel myself sort of relax like it has the opposite effect. i have tested this theory when i actually AM hyper by drinking an original flavor monster and i totally mellowed out. how is this do the ingedients counter-act my adhd or sumthin?
thx evry1

« on: 17/03/2009 14:23:12 »

why is it that when an event happens that is "embarrasing" we blush? why does blood run to the face/cheeks out of all the places  it could go? do other parts of our body "blush" or get red at that time too??

Just Chat! / wanna thinking challenge???

« on: 09/03/2009 16:03:27 »

ok this is crazy and its gonna make ya think a lil bit....idk dont have ANY idead how this happend.


ok tru story.... i drew a star in permanant marker on the back of my hand.

i woke up the next morning with the exact same (faded) star about on the side of my wrist on the same hand the star was on(right).
also there was a a litlle red on my index finger of that same hand.


ok how the heck!?!? how did this happen. showd sum friends (one who even saw me draw the star) they were at a complete loss as for how this happend just as i am so theres yer challenge ...haha hope u got good luck(i kno i dont) lol

Technology / The new answer to car problems(its just obvious)

« on: 06/03/2009 16:55:57 »

ok i KNOW ive heard this sum where but to lazy ta google it lol

instead of looking for all these alternative fuels and polution solvers, y not just revert everything to magnetism??

the way i seem to think is we cover all roads with magnetic strips and make a car that also has a magnet on the bottom. the two magnets repel each other causeing it to float and move. kinda like the trains at Disney world or sumthin. no fuel wud b required all the car would need is a small battery to work lights, radio, tv, air, etc. and y not have it so u can just plug it in at home to charge it? A LOT less pollution (besides electricty making of course) we would spend less money making the car because it could be lighter not requieing a motor wheel axels etc. another good example would be crime...in a car chase there could be a way for police to cancel the magnets on that stretch of road making the suspects car inmobile.
another good factor to this idea is that we can cover roads with grass, flowers or whatever seeing as the magnets will work thru it. this is obviously good for the environment.

Now i havent thought of everthing but some smaller details would be like to get on to a road the driver could use electricy to drive him out of the garage onto the road and then slowly uncover the magnets(electronically) and just drive away. and to land or whatever the driver could SLOWLY cover the magnets to slowly lower to the ground.
now obviously there are some drawbacks as with every idea. first i dont know how much magnetic rocks there are in the world and it would be extremely costly to laydown magnets on roads and cover them with vegitation. and im pretty sure car companies would find some reason to make the magnecars(thats wat ill call themm) expensive but i feel in the long run we are really saving our hides. cause with magnets they dont really "run out" so it would be rare to have to replace them. the magnecars could just keep being re-selled when one person is done. or if the owner of an older model of a magnecar wanted a new model but couldnt sell theirs they could just bring to a factory sorta place that buys magnecars. this factory could take the magnecars old magnets and sell them back to a magnecar company which would use the magnets on a new model. (yea ive thought this one out =D)

obviously i dont know a lot about how these would work like how a person would turn is still a major factor.
a new thought just came to me. as for models of this magnecar there could be like trucks, vans, and sports etc. for trucks there would be a very strong magnetic force on it to be able to lift loads etc, minivans would have a little less magnestism but still enough to hold how evermany passengers it was made for plus storage etc.

I feel this could be a final transportation answer idk it just sorta sells itself ya no?

Just Chat! / Finally the worlds new band geniuses!!!!!!!

« on: 05/03/2009 18:09:24 »

 [] [:0] [:0] [:0] []

Ya gotta check em out August Burns Red
if u know anything about music you will understand and appreciate the complexity of their songs
they ARE a metal band but for those of you who dont like this stuff u will be amazed at how fantastic this band really is
you have to really listen to the technical guitar solos the intricate bass and rhythm parts and the flawless drumming and the unbelivably in-tune singing...they are just complete geniuses you will be instantly engaged.
they are a newer band so they dont have many songs to their name but a few i would STRONGLY suggest taking a look at are Composure, Backburner, Black Sheep, and the Eleventh Hour.
you can listen to all these for free with playlist.com no signing up
listen to the entire song before you give up on them there songs have many change ups Backburner alone has like 5 in a 4 min live performance.
give them a chance i swear u wont be disapointed they are christian but they arent like other metal bands they dont really care about doom death killing etc... they are the happy metal band that just has fun with their music

let me know wat ya think i really want some critism on them what do u like dislike?? thx
