night

And in the news today, a menagerie of genetically modified animals. There is something for everyone here... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/news.html?in_article_id=414142&in_page_id=1770 "[A] giant cow, three times the size of ordinary cattle, reared without fat to produce...

It was quite unexpected. This was a full tower PC. Evidently something failed in the power supply and KABOOM! It also produced a huge electric arc out the rear end of the machine. The arc shorted out a package of button cell batteries on the desk over the computer. It was so loud and...

Might there be any value in being more "at one" with the passage of day and night? Army interrogaters in Iraq and elsewhere have been known to put a bag over the head of a prisoner to amongst other things break down that prisoner's resistance by distancing the prisoner's mind from the passage...

Hi all, read the interesting post from the other day, and thought I should add my experience in a new thread. There was a period where I would frequently experience these terrifying events- even had one where there was a horrific witch-like apparition floating above my face pummeling me. What...

Twas the Night before Fitzmas And all through the House Not a wingnut was sleeping - They were scared as a mouse. The skeletons hung in the closets with care In hopes that Fitzgerald would not look in there. The Kossacks were nestled all snug in their beds While visions of frog-marches danced in...

It had an interesting segment about how scientists are trying to create life from scratch. Check out this site: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/sciencenow/3214/01.html It does not have the full segmment to be viewed yet. (it will be available on the 19th) There is an interview with a the head of...

This is an interesting conundrum,though wether it goes in this forum I dont know(but no doubt will find out!) When I was a child and was ill or couldnt sleep and was up with my parent,the night seemed forever and a magical or mysterious time.Was it because of no 24/7 TV or due to a childs...

Went to bed in the wee small hours. Light out, just dozing off. Rustle. Huh? Rustle, rustle. Hmm. Crawl back to consciousness and investigate. In the living room is a bookshelf, on which is a plastic bag. Bag is emitting rustling noises. Expecting a large moth, I lift the bag down to the...

here's my latest UFO question from allexperts. It really isn't UFO, I think, but any help in answering this would be very welcome! Thanks --------------------------------------------------------- I was reading through the archives for fun, and was shocked to see that some one else has had...

Story

Absolutely nothing! Yep, indeed, what we've got ourselves here folks is truly and uber horse race! :clap:

And in my dream I was with a group of children with psi powers. We were standing on a hilltop. The wind was gusting, picking up leaves and carrying them along. I yelled "stop" and the wind in one direction came to a dead calm. I rotated around all four sides and said "stop" until all was calm...

Naturalhealth decided to post a case I concocted as a homoeopathic challenge, over at H'pathy. The reaction was beyond my wildest dreams. However, I couldn't resist going in there myself and dropping the other shoe, as it were. The thread is therefore sure to be deleted soon, so do go read it...

Ok, this is what I dreamt last night. I would love to hear what it might mean. (even if I don't believe in it) I was trying to get somewhere. It was a journey that would last several days, but I wasn't sure where I was going. I had this PDA-like thing with me that had a map to show me where I...

Upon Renata’s request, I’m starting a thread on the poetry that some of us recited at Paltalk on April 2nd. I recited two poems by Carlos Drummond de Andrade, considered to be one of the best Brazilian poets of all time. It’s a household name, and despite everybody liking him (from the general...

...I would just like to make it known that Renata made my night by inviting me to "come with [her] and inspect the box." I'm happy to report that the ensuing box inspection was most satisfying, and in my opinion the box was a very, very nice box indeed.

Sorry if this has already been discussed.... Is there going to be any type of special shuttle service from the Tuscany to the Rio on Friday night for those going to see Penn & Teller? I know there is a free shuttle service from Harrah's to the Rio, but from the Tuscany to Harrah's might be a...

I watched some program about the Tokyo earthquake that's predicted for some time soon, and one section had Ed Dames doing Remote Future Viewing (after the show I checked Google and found out how accurate he's been recently...), which was spectacularly bad, yet lapped up by the credulous studio...

It appears that techtv.com has gone a little woo-woo in it's article on paranormal investigation,involving the Tri Field Natural EM Meter no less....http://www.techtv.com/news/culture/story/0,24195,3389657,00.html I don't think any of the techies did any test to see if the meter did anything or...

Bush says that the violence in Iraq proves his strategy is working. And night is day, too, I guess. From MSNBC: "THE MORE PROGRESS we make on the ground, the more free the Iraqis become, the more electricity that’s available, the more jobs are available, the more kids that are going to...

I watched last night a program here in Japan that covers lots of usually health-related topics in an entertaining, but reasonably scientific method, ie they do lots of medical tests and small-scale trials (15-30 people or so), and have lots of guys in white coats explaining the results. (It's...

Some guy who used to be a homosexual got married, has two children and is preaching the word of the Bible. He compared his sinful past with that of drug addicts and serial killers. Another step to the road to tolerance in the USA! Way to go CNN.

:eek: Check out this thread!
