Well that pretty much sums up my thoughts exactly... or as I like to put it "you can't polish a turd." I didn't go see it because it looked like a stupid-ass movie... and hollywood wonders why they're losing sales. Same with the RIAA...You weren't losing money because of P2P downloads, you're distributing shit...therefore you lose sales. I can put my ass in a tupperware bowl and get the same thing for free. Well at least that's why I quit buying CDs. I mean, back in the 70's there were greatly talented bands like led zepplin, van halen, pink floyd, doobie brothers, CCR...the list goes on. Now a days we have black dudes going "YO YO YO" and white dudes going "AAAAARRRRRRGH!" ... That's not music, that's crap. But if I had to choose today between who has more talent, hip-hop or rock, I'd choose the hip-hop scene because at least they're creating some phat beats; they just need to work on the vocals a bit. Rock in 2006, on the other hand, is just lame. You dont see awesome and talented musicians in these 'shit' bands like steve howe. The best talent out there is probably audioslave and even they suck. Same goes with movies, most the crap that comes out is not worth the $10.50. Now if it were $5 then i'd be more inclined to go see more films at the movies because if it sux then oh well it was five bucks. But if the movie sux and its 10.50...well hell, that's dinner at a restaurant. I guess what it really comes down to is people like to actually get something worth having for their money.

Neutrino Mass Confirmed 318

biohack writes "BBC News reports that results from the MINOS experiment have confirmed that neutrinos have mass. To look for neutrino oscillations, scientists created muon neutrinos in a particle accelerator at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab). After passing through a particle detector at Fermilab, a high intensity beam of neutrinos travelled to another particle detector 724km (450 miles) away in a disused mine in Soudan, US. The set up established that fewer particles were being detected at the Soudan site than had been sent from Fermilab, which confirmed that some neutrinos changed their flavor on the way - an effect called neutrino flavor oscillation, which requires them to have mass. 'To put it simply, if they are heavy, it means that there is a lot more mass in the Universe than we thought there was,' said Professor Jenny Thomas from University College London."
