Well, this is pretty off-topic, but in a Science Class, one should be taught the relavant scientific theories according to modern scientific thought. To be "taught" evolution does not mean one must "believe" in it (or even the that the teacher believes in it - only that they are doing their job - teaching science). Anyway, back on topic...

Five of its not-so-little ones. LOL Racoons are pretty cool though. There are even reports of them living in New York City.

AOMH

Knowledge of Canadian TV viewing habits does not mean I believe that you send your elderly to go live on an iceberg or other such nonsense.

There is a similar type of thing where they interview Americans on the street in a segment on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Sure, it can be funny, but as one can glean from this thread, people from other countries use programs such as "Talking to Americans" as a basis to form an opinion of Americans. I highly doubt anyone from Canada or Europe would give two @#$%s about a show that would air the interviews that showed Americans in a positive light.

Including your fellow team members? Right? And what exactly is your definition of Fat, Lazy, Stupid, and Immoral? Compared to which other country?

We are integrating water as a "resource" by making it a prerequisite for water to be present (in the form of unbuilt "settlements") in order to build a Town Centre. Basically, a player will build their TCs atop of wells, springs, oases, or ponds.

I had to choke down the laughter when a Frenchman speaks of an American's arrogance, when his very post was the epitome of the word.

Uh, is SAUSAGE the only thing Germans eat? Sheesh... or, are TACOS the only thing Mexicans eat??? I'm sorry, but this poll is ignorant.

Mythos_Ruler = 25

Looks great, man. However, it looks more like a Roman temple than Greek, to me.

I would have changed the outcome in BOTH battles.

I would have changed the outcome of the Battle of Chaeronea.

"Bloody Mod Packs" I love it! lol

I would like to make German sausage with her.

I knew of kids that had "boyfriends" and "girlfriends" at young ages (elementary school), but all they did mostly was hold hands or giggle at each other. (y) Good times.

Sometimes JAG can be a good show. Kate Beckinsale is pretty nice looking too, but there are only so many poll choices I can put. Does anyone think she's being hopelessly type-cast though? First, a Werewolf killer in "Underworld," and now a vampire killer in "Van Helsing"? lol

LOL... you guys and your Britney fantasies.

Nice... I see people are starting to use my MSN avatars now!

There have been a few developments since that interview. Just wait and see. I believe you will be pleased.

Researchers Convert Manure to Crude Oil By JIM PAUL, AP URBANA, Ill. (April 13) - A University of Illinois research team is working on turning pig manure into a form of crude oil that could be refined to heat homes or generate electricity. Years of research and fine-tuning are ahead before the idea could be commercially viable, but results so far indicate there might be big benefits for farmers and consumers, lead researcher Yanhui Zhang said. "This is making more sense in terms of alternative energy or renewable energy and strategically for reducing our dependency on foreign oil," said Zhang, an associate professor of agricultural and biological engineering. "Definitely, there is potential in the long term." The thermochemical conversion process uses intense heat and pressure to break down the molecular structure of manure into oil. It's much like the natural process that turns organic matter into oil over centuries, but in the laboratory the process can take as little as a half-hour. A similar process is being used at a plant in Carthage, Mo., where tons of turkey entrails, feathers, fat and grease from a nearby Butterball turkey plant are converted into a light crude oil, said Julie DeYoung, a spokeswoman for Omaha, Neb.-based Conagra Foods, which operates the plant in a joint venture with Changing World Technologies of Long Island, N.Y. Converting manure is sure to catch the attention of swine producers. Safe containment of livestock waste is costly for farmers, especially at large confinement operations where thousands of tons of manure are produced each year. Also, odors produced by swine farms have made them a nuisance to neighbors. "If this ultimately becomes one of the silver bullets to help the industry, I'm absolutely in favor of it," said Jim Kaitschuk, executive director of the Illinois Pork Producers Association. Zhang and his research team have found that converting manure into crude oil is possible in small batches, but much more research is needed to develop a continuously operating reaction chamber that could handle large amounts of manure. That is key to making the process practicable and economically viable. Zhang predicted that one day a reactor the size of a home furnace could process the manure generated by 2,000 hogs at a cost of about $10 per barrel. Big oil refineries are unlikely to purchase crude oil made from converted manure, Zhang said, because they aren't set up to refine it. But the oil could be used to fuel smaller electric or heating plants, or to make plastics, ink or asphalt, he said. "Crude oil is our first raw material," he said. "If we can make it value-added, suddenly the whole economic picture becomes brighter." 04/13/04 02:17 EDT

Hmmm, then perhaps he should give the money to charity? What would Jesus have done with the money (?), after all. Either that, or give me some. All I ask for is a measly $10,000...

Hmmm, Fourth of July aka "Independence Day."

White Castle's burgers are what I like to call, "sliders." They slide in and they slide right out. Man, that place is NAS-TAY. For nice and cheap fast food on-the-go... Burger King beats McDonald's any day. I call it, "The grown-ups' McDonalds." LOL. Now, for QUALITY food, Arby's wins, but they are kind of expensive for FF. Man, their "Chicken Bacon N' Swiss" is DA GRUB!
