That is rough, to have one on thursday only to lose the other 3 days later. Sympathies. I would be finished in that situation.

A meeting in prague today has stripped Pluto's planet status stating pluto's failure to dominate its orbit like the other eight planetary bodies as its reason for 'demoting' Pluto which is now considered a "Dwarf Planet"

The International Astronomical Union's (IAU) decision means textbooks will now have to describe a Solar System with just eight major planetary bodies.

It is 1043 am and i haven't slept at all so 24 hours here i come!

they sometimes code the message in to cover the text portion.

this is the way advertisers get around the spam filter.

Make it look lik it is a message.

They just forgot to put the advert in or it wasn't shown.

No, but I do read the articles alot/occasionally.

I have used the information in projects, usually when i have checked that they are factually accurate, and amazingly it is quite accurate, about as acurate as Britanica.

Ditto!

This board is like a representation of my life .. once popular, now desolate ad seeing the tumbleweeds. But like me it remians, and so shall I

Strawberry Soda yum.

Nope the safty measures managed to kick in, though it could have ben worse.

A UK chemical plant formerly owned chemicals giant ICI has experienced two explosions, and is thought to have released a chemical cloud.

The particular plant on the site is said to have dealt in synthetic Ammonia and is said to have begun experiencing its explosions at 12.30am BST (GMT+1) with a low rumbling. One eye witness described the explosions as loud rumblings that lasted mins.

Local fire chief has reported the explosion as an expolsive release of ammonia, the crews are on site in a protective measure and the inccident has been scaled down from a major inccident to a lesser occurance and are awaiting the arrival of the sites engineers to make the site safe.

OK I know the police feel they are doing a wonderful thing in taking Knives away from youths and those that carry such implements purely for acts of violence, especially after two teens have been killed or injured outside the school gates, but it has been taken from a persons home! "It is a particularly nasty weapon which could easily take someone’s head off," said inspector Mac McGarry. Well yeah ok, in the series it is supposed to do this, but to my knowledge no Bat'leth on sale is even sharp! If the individual to whom the seized Bat'leth belonged to sharpened it, carried it on the street and waved it around as though he were a Klingon, then fine, no issues with its confiscation, but really in a person's HOME.

And is a Knife amnesty really going to do any long term good? No! of course it isn't. If you want something like 14 year olds stabbing each other prevent them from buying dangerous weapons and make sure legislation that is in place is enforced. End of the day though, teens will always be able to access knives, they will always be able to take them out of the home, we buy knives for all sorts of domestic purposes, and I have been known to use not particularly sharp ones for undoing screws when not availed of a screwdriver.

So availability is always going to be an issue, 'can't buy a knife, grab your mother's meat cleaver or steak knife, they wound just the same and are accountable for a higher proportion of injuries or death than any of the fantasy knives on sale, though some of the hunting knives are used in the commission of crime and really I feel that the age limit should be brought to 18 on those, they could cause some wicked interesting injuries. But really a Bat'leth? Unless it is sharpened is more an object d'art than anything actually intended to wound maim or kill.

Sometimes I wonder how smart the police force of England and Wales really is. *Shakes head*

My end all favourite song is Hurt by Johnny Cash Mainly because it is well sung and aptly done by the right age rather than the giuy from NIN.

WTH is going on?

I have had these problems I have tried the same thing as EVERYONE and it hasn't worked. I am about to throw in the towel especially as yahoo mail beta doesn't even recognise my OS. I am getting in contact with someone monday and getting a new computer

I have run virus stuff, I have had firewalls and spy-blockers and all the stuff reccommended so now what

Kor i have a version of him doing it on MP3 from his album, if you're interested I can send it to your email?

I would have thought tht a percentage of higher and base level mental functions would have to be taken over by cybernetics for me to consider anyone a cyborg.

This smacks of information for money, instead of information for all. Its the capitalists last great fantasy pay for info, cause there is never an end to information, and you can profit from bad information as well as good (bad being false information, and hey with out money to make sure it isn't right, who is going to understand what is real and what is fake.)

Death is merely a transition to a different state ot being. I am not afraid of this change, I have seen whats ahead, it warms me to know that there is something more than this brief flicker of the candle.

I have four invites so this is purely first come first served. You too can be a Beta for the services, it is occassional that login can take a while. but in honsety its rare. I would advisee getting this, because if you use MSN messanger, you will be updating to it anyhow.
