Gold has no practical value. The only reason some people are willing to spend money on it is because they like shiny things. I would suggest that things that actually have a practical value (food or oil for example) are a better store of value.
oh come on! It's not as good electrical conductor as copper or silver, but it has its value! Not to mention that it works well as a reflector for electromagnetic radiation!
This, kinda lame.
The Gundam mecha model (jpeg), however, looks fucking awesome.
I'm looking forward to the Doraemon model! =D
Speaking as a non-American... who the f**k is Lebron James???
Who knows. I haven't heard of him either. Best guess based on this story: He probably plays Warcraft instead of Starcraft.
I thought he had mentioned Leeroy Jenkins! =D
I doubt Pakistan can be happy at all about this development. It's one thing to have a nuke, another to be able to deliver it. This makes a first strike weapon from Hell. About the time you figure out the war is on....it's over.
What keeps them to shoot each other then? IMHO is the effect that a first strike would cause on the striker itself, for example, if India strikes first, all the islamic world will come down on India, and if Pakistan launches it first, all the rest of the world will come down on them. As it alway has been, Nukes are more like a strategy weapon than a tactical one. You only have it to be able to threat your enemy not to kill him.
The summary (and article) are better than the headline. This isn't either: a) the first supersonic cruise missile; or b) the first maneuverable cruise missile. But it is, apparently, the first maneuverable supersonic cruise missile.
Now they only need to attach lasers to their friggin heads!!
It seems that the software downgraded to category B if the fall was larger than 6 feet regardless of other (category A) factors.
e.g., the patient has been shot and stabbed and drowned and fell 8 feet so it's a category B now.
That is a fault in the software.
So it's simple to fix it. Just insert another question: "Is the person well ? Is he begging for his life? or does he look like he's dead?"
...where the hell is my FLYING CAR !?
due to the high energy demand of the flying car factories, we are focusing on a Cold Fusion Plant for a while...but I tell you that it'll be released before Duke Nukem Forever.
