God Checker is a fun encyclopedia of gods from almost every culture. Pantheons, Top 10 lists, etc.

With a new section for Christian saints.

And yes, they do have a gift shop.

http://world.guns.ru/sniper/sn63-e.htm
CheyTac papers state that the entire System is capable to deliver sub-MOA accuracy at the ranges of up to 2500 yards (2270 meters).
This design allows the standard 419 grain (27.15 gram) bullet to retain its supersonic velocity at the ranges beyond 2000 meters (2200 yards). At the ranges beyond 700 meters the .408 bullet has more energy than the standard .50BMG ball bullet. The .408 cartridge also is lighter than .50BMG cartridge by about 1/3, and generates less recoil.

Very cool. I will tell you that having seen the .50 cal Barrett in action, it is a very good gun. This should give it a run for the money.

I like The Laundry Alternative. http://www.laundry-alternative.com/

I live in a small apartment with no washer/dryer, or way to hook them up. It sucks. So, I got a portable washer (mechanical); and a spin dryer from them. They work great, and are far more environmentally friendly. The spin dryer removes an amazing amount of water, and I just hang the clothes up over night.

The only thing it doesn't work well on are very large items like blankets, very heavily soiled items, like kitchen rags, and--getting pet hair off all that black cotton I seem to wear.

That's a coincidence. Last night I had Celestia up. I was following Saturn, setting the clock to run at 100000x so that each second was about 30 hours. At that speed the satellites spun around Saturn and Saturn was moving against the stars. If I had had a really large screen, I would have put it put there and put on some nice classical music. At once point I had the speed up at 1,000,000 and was watching the galaxies spin by. I think I ended up in the year 2525 (song reference).:)

Here is my view of Saturn. I have max stars and constellations turned on so the screen is a little crowded. If I turn up the speed, the moons of Saturn become apparent since they being to move faster than the stars.

Very cool program.

duck_duck 04-17-2007 09:16 PM

Have you tried using some of the add-ons? There are many good ones for it. :)

duck_duck 04-21-2007 11:44 PM

I almost wish you hadn't told me that. I downloaded 1/2 gig of add-ons. I couldn't resist adding in the 2001 spacecraft, even though they are obviously fictional (the monolith is supposed to be included but I can't seem to find it yet-feel free to speculate on the meaning of THAT).

Anyway, I installed all of the add-ons I picked, which included practical items like guided tours of planet and space mission, and I ended up crashing Celestia. I solved this by uninstalling and resintalling Celestia, which retained that add-ons but let me change some settings to get it working.

I've already taken some tours, so thanks for the info.


BTW, kubrick2001.com has a nice Flash presentation on "The Meaning of 2001".

duck_duck 04-22-2007 02:05 PM

You should get the earth 64k textures and some fictional solar systems. :)

Rubik's cube is cool.

I wish I had known how stupid that Lost thing was before I clicked on it. Perhaps a short description next time?

Larry 04-25-2007 02:56 PM

It isn't stupid at all. Well, not much.

It's interesting, and a good idea.

Cloud 04-25-2007 03:00 PM

yes, if I see just "click here" without an explanation, I will mostly likely NOT click

Sorry, didn't mean to sound so bitchy.

I think I just didn't get the concept, and didn't spend a lot of time reading the material. My apologies.

But to save me the time, would you explain it? The gist I got was that it was to see how many people you could get to visit and sign up based on what you sent them, and you get points for being creative. Sort of like a web-based chain letter? Thanks! :blush:

Larry 04-25-2007 03:15 PM

You're pretty much right.

Basically, you try to invite as many people as possible to join the game, by linking them to your unique address (mine is 42ace). You get a point for everybody who joins through your link, half a point for everyone they invite, and points for creativity. If you fail to invite someone within a month, you get shoved off the site. Apparently there's some sort of prize for the person with the most points after about a year.

Shawnee123 04-25-2007 03:53 PM

Oh, I see. I wondered how they knew I got there from your link...it's the address. That makes more sense.

bigw00dy 05-14-2007 10:37 AM

came across this site while perusing during my break. What the hell....its FREE!!

Ever since we started the Music Genome Project, our friends would ask:

Can you help me discover more music that I'll like?

Those questions often evolved into great conversations. Each friend told us their favorite artists and songs, explored the music we suggested, gave us feedback, and we in turn made new suggestions. Everybody started joking that we were now their personal DJs.

We created Pandora so that we can have that same kind of conversation with you
