Well, the election system isn't helping either. It's very unlikely a third party will ever get a decent momentum the way the system is set up. On the other hand the SNP and UKIP (both rather single topic extremists though) managed to break up what was basically a two party parliament in the UK, so maybe there is hope.

There's antimatter in your body right now! Your body contains about 175g of Potassium, some of which is the radioactive isotope K-40 which sometimes decays via the release of a positron and a neutrino - positrons are antimatter!

The summary is misleading; the act will probably pass on Tuesday, and the provisions will be restored. It's depressing how completely dishonest this story is.

Most, I hate the Sparta icon... it's white, with no contrast border... which makes everything that is assigned to it being the default program, show a white globe on a white background... it's like, "way to go, Microsoft!" followed by a slow clap.

"clean" "modern" design... which will never work decently on all backgrounds... you know... like good logos, and designs...

I have a 'scope, and I have lots of practical experience with 120/240 US power systems. I challenge you to explain how you get a 120 degree phase difference on the secondary of a transformer that has a single primary winding and a center-tapped 120/240V secondary.

Look up the Celilo Converter Station and the Pacific DC Intertie for examples of HVDC in the US. I like how they used +-500kV to ground so that the insulators to the grounded tower could be smaller than if they'd used +1MV to ground.

Are you sure? Do you have a PDF-417 barcode on the back?

Yep, you've hit it on the head: the fashion world heavily depends on hyperspecific brands. A parent company may own an immense number of outlet identities that aim to cater to a specific submarket. Hot Topic is a good parent company for ThinkGeek because their model is already built around faddish, meme-driven trends (as you said), but the two target audiences have little enough overlap that this will be a substantial diversification to their marketing reach.

It's exhaustingly parodical—and entirely targeted at those who are sick of the book. Jasper Fforde has been hailed as a suitable compatriot to Douglas Adams and Terry Pratchett. Judging by covers, etc.

Don't forget that honeybees are an introduced species in North America.

That app and website already exists. I don't remember what the app is right now (it's on the Android Store), but there's an app there that receives and uploads all MACs seen + GPS info + some BLE service info.

Extending on this, there is at least one book where time travel is invented following the discovery of a recipe for unscrambling eggs.

Since it's perfectly radial away form the sun, I'm gonna call it a very complex lens flare. Most lens flares I see are that odd green color, too.

...well, maybe they weren't happy with the specifics of the Nationalist-Socialist platform. (I bet it was the anti-smoking mindset.) It's not quite as if neo-Nazis have a monopoly on profound racism, or even a monopoly on holocaust denial. Sometimes it's just desirable for the sake of some local variety of nationalism to pretend the Jews weren't as abused during World War 2 as they actually were.

...But it's okay, because he actually died years ago; no one has bothered to check because he continues to emit information.
