  1. No it isn't, probably. Sporting is when you do something healthy, to improve your skills, like push-ups or something. Ball sports are over-rated, because they take a lot of practising so you can get some good results-improve your legs, neck, arms or something. Exercises are the best, because that way you get the fastest results and improvements. Back to the topic, carding is not a sport. You sit, your neck is probably not in straight position, and you are under stress. All the materials opposite to the sports ones. By the way, I like playing some video poker :D.


  2. Yes, no offense but they really could be better. I would like to focus on the snow, instead of the fencing and stuff. Just giving ideas, I am not such a good photographer. Your site has better images than these. I really like the ones with trees, and snow only. I would like to see them full-size, have you ever thinked about selling some of them? My father is a real photography freak, he has some pretty good stuff, and he only does nature.


  3. I think that the PlayStation 3 can provide better graphic than the XboX 360, because of the reason it's newer and approved, and there are better games for it(according to me, correct me if I'm wrong). The PS3 was supposed to be a revolution in the gaming. Instead of that, we simply got a good gaming console. Maybe next time.


  4. Yes, lots of places have only blurry images, that's because they are not so popular I believe. But some even less popular have better view! I think Google Earth will never be that good. All the images we see were taken somewhere around 2000-2004, and they are so old. By the way, I think that the title should be Google Earth 5.0, instead of Google 5.0, because people are getting the wrong picture.


  5. 1. If you are right handed, you will tend to chew your food on your right side. If you are left handed, you will tend to chew your food on your left side.
    2. If you stop getting thirsty, you need to drink more water. For when a human body is dehydrated, its thirst mechanism shuts off.

    3. Chewing gum while peeling onions will keep you from crying.

    4. Your tongue is germ free only if it is pink. If it is white there is a thin film of bacteria on it.

    8. The average person who stops smoking requires one hour less sleep a night.

    9. Laughing lowers levels of stress hormones and strengthens the immune system. Six-year-olds laugh an average of 300 times a day. Adults only laugh 15 to 100 times a day.

    10. The roar that we hear when we place a seashell next to our ear is not the ocean, but rather the sound of blood surging through the veins in the ear.

    11. Dalmatians are born without spots.

    12. Bats always turn left when exiting a cave.

    13. The ‘v’ in the name of a court case does not stand for ‘versus’, but for ‘and’ (in civil proceedings) or ‘against’ (in criminal proceedings).

    14. Men’s shirts have the buttons on the right, but women’s shirts have the buttons on the left.

    15. The owl is the only bird to drop its upper eyelid to wink. All other birds raise their lower eyelids.

    16. The reason honey is so easy to digest is that it’s already been digested by a bee.

    17. Roosters cannot crow if they cannot extend their necks.

    18. The color blue has a calming effect. It causes the brain to release calming hormones.

    19. Every time you sneeze some of your brain cells die.

    21. The verb “cleave” is the only English word with two synonyms which are antonyms of each other: adhere and separate.

    22. When you blush, the lining of your stomach also turns red.

    23. When hippos are upset, their sweat turns red.

    24. The first Harley Davidson motorcycle was built in 1903, and used a tomato can for a carburetor.

    26. Google is actually the common name for a number with a million zeros.

    30. There are 1,792 steps to the top of the Eiffel Tower.

    31. The sound you hear when you crack your knuckles is actually the sound of nitrogen gas bubbles bursting.

    32. Human hair and fingernails continue to grow after death.

    33. It takes about 20 seconds for a red blood cell to circle the whole body.

    35. Most soccer players run 7 miles in a game.

    36. The only part of the body that has no blood supply is the cornea in the eye. It takes in oxygen directly from the air.

    37. Every day 200 million couples make love, 400,000 babies are born, and 140,000 people die.

    40. The only 2 animals that can see behind itself without turning its head are the rabbit and the parrot.

    47. Whip makes a cracking sound because its tip moves faster than the speed of sound.

    48. Two animal rights protesters were protesting at the cruelty of sending pigs to a slaughterhouse in Bonn. Suddenly the pigs, all two thousand of them, escaped through a broken fence and stampeded, trampling the two hapless protesters to death.

    49. If a statue in the park of a person on a horse has both front legs in the air, the person died in battle; if the horse has one front leg in the air, the person died as a result of wounds received in battle; if the horse has all four legs on the ground, the person died of natural cause.

    50. The human heart creates enough pressure while pumping to squirt blood 30 feet!!

    1. Doesn't makes any sense. I'm right-handed and always chew on my left side.
    2. Yes, I have heard of this one. I guess no matter if we feel thirsty or not, we always need water.
    3. That's a pretty interesting one. I would like to know why. Don't the onion smell comes through the nose?
    6. Yes, the Titanic was old. But it didn't helped them a lot, did it?
    7. That goes for cats too. When they are hunting, their pupil is a line.
    8. Probably we all should start, and than stop smoking :D.
    11. Yes, I have seen dalmatines while babies. They are whole pink.
    12. I've heard about this one at the 'Daily Show'.
    14. Really haven't noticed that, I think more unprofessional factories don't think about that.
    19. Wow, this is the most interesting one. And what if you save it(sneeze inside)?
    22. Maybe that's why we have that feel in the stomach.
    24. Now that was a long time ago for a Harley.
    26. Doesn't Google means something infinite(as I read)?
    32. That;s crappy.
    36. That's probably why we can't keep our eyes closed more than 15 hours a day.
    37. Now that's something. How could they interview them all :P?
    41. Zinc and copper? We are like machines!
    42. I laugh at least 40, but some people doesn't laugh at all, so it's probably true.
    44. Yes, I know it and I have noticed it.
    46. I know that, but I think it's pretty much(30 feet?).
    48. Now that's lol.

  6. Well, I think that racism is still not cured-it will be continuing at least for few more decades. I don't know what's the big deal with it. Why people still can't understand that there's no point for it existing. Why would one group(probably the white people) feel superior feel superior to another one(the black people)? People just continue hating themselves because of the skin color, it's like it's a matter of choice! I mean, cats don't see the difference between races.


  7. I haven't, and I don't really believe in that kind of stuff. People probably lie just to get some money, and they might even heal someone coincidently and than their 'price' will just grow, and they will start getting more people confused. But, when people are desperate they do desperate stuff, and that's not a thing to laugh at. It's the ones who act like 'curers', at least the most of them. They lie, and they are just laughing to people's deceases and their desperate ways of curing themselves.


  8. I think that praying by itself doesn't has a lot of meaning. Even so, I still think by focusing on what I wanted, I have gotten better results. It's more like connecting God to ourselves and, and if anything goes well, we get the 'illusion' that someone maybe is really listening to us. Coincidences exist, and sometimes even if you pray the bad thing still happens. Praying makes us feel more powerful, and think that we are protected. It sure makes us feel better, like someone is there for us.


  9. Well, of course that we would like a color screen TV, instead of one with black and white, but that doesn't goes for everybody. Some pictures really don't 'make any sense' if they are in color, so it's better for them to be black and white. Also, lots of artists think that by making their image non-colored (in black and white), they will make a better photography, or any other kind of art piece. I like doing 2D and 3D arts in color as much as I do in black and white. And somehow, when I see an older movie(in black and white), something makes me think that the world didn't had any colors back in that time. Black and white really is making the atmosphere better.


  10. My friend gave me this one for my birthday, and it took me an hour and a half to free up some disk space and install it. The progress was so sloow. And yet, it showed up that my PC was too 'weak' to run it, and it was real annoying while starting it. One frame at a second, lol.


  11. Well yes, this table is used for business, fun or just viewing stuff the easier way. I think it is pretty awsome. I am still not sure about the credit card and the putting camera on it thing, maybe you will must have a cable or something to connect the camera with it. And really, where does Microsoft finds these stuff from lol? They don't have enough profit already? Bill Gates created a lot of stuff to make our life easier, if it wasn't for him, the computers tehnology would off been pretty much nowhere.


  12. I have tried KGB Archiver some time ago, but it wasn't as good as told. It cannot really compress that much, at least not any kind of files. If you are compressing a game, than it will compress less, because of all the effects, models, and the sound. If you are compressing a MP3, it will save you only like 5%, because MP3 is a way to compress the audio, which means it has already been compressed. And the compressing time is pretty huge, and if you have a slower processor with less RAM, than you will have to wait a lot, and lot of time before you can compress all those 10GB. Nothing is as good as they are advertising it.


  13. That's because the American people is probably focusing at having their lifes fixed instead of buying Disney movies(mostly cartoons I believe). Well, that is not suprising, regarding that bigger part of the world have been like that in ages. Yes, it's the financial crisis and it's getting outside the United States with the speed of light. People lose their jobs, and they probably don't feel like giving some extra money for Disney World. People used to travel in there a lot, and now they don't. Mostly the people from Europe were traveling to their parks, and now they don't-at least not that much. That's pretty pity because some of the Disney castles were really well-made.


  14. I think that probably should be allowed, over some limits. Working without license is not really honest, and working in the kitchen?-Please! Maybe the man was desperate but this sure isn't the solution. If I went to his 'dentist office' and I used his 'services', and if he had done something wrong to my teeth, who would I complain to? If I said that he's working without a license they probably would of ask me what am I doing to go to irregular dentist, and why I'm not going to my 'matic'(we use that word for the dentist who's the one the state gave you to be in charge of your teeth lol) one. And he probably didn't had the right 'machines' at his kitchen, so the mostly possible thing is that he cannot really fix your teeth. By the way, like the most of the humans, I hate going to dentist.


  15. I've seen Joomla being installed and I have also seen people managing it, and I have to admit, I didn't liked it that much. It's way to easy to handle and that's not the way a website is supposed to be done and updating. People want to earn money or promote their products well by not even working a bit harder on their sites. Web design is supposed to be difficult, and that's kinda good because if you want to do something, you better be good in it. I agree with networker, saying that people would rather learn something on their own, because I want to do something fully by myself, and that's when I fell satisfied with myself and the work I have done. Joomla is lke stealing someone else's design, because it is open source. According to me, do it the hard way and you will do it right.


  16. Yeah, that's true. But haven't man kind already learned enough, and that making wars and fighting against the ones from your(or any) kind is useless? Now I do agree that some nations want to be so much in charge and maybe even hurt others' religions and rights, but people have separate opinions. And war is mostly a fight against two people with different opinions. Now, I don't remember that Nostradamus said anything about the end of the world, he said that there is gonna be a World War III, and it's going to kill millions, millions of people. The end of his predictions says that human kind will leave the Earth behind(somewhere around 2700s), and extrude their life in other galaxies. Do I see the end of the human as the Earth being burned out of an asteroid? No, I don't. Maybe Armageddon will never come.


  17. I think that teachers are making the school looking the way it's not supposed to. They don't allow students to hold books in their hands or something-what's the point? The important thing is to focus on the lesson. And the grades are really an annoying thing! What's the point in having them all excellent(as 20% of the parents bug their children to have them all excellent)? We should show anything which helps us to get the material more easily. We should have computers, pda's, mobile phones. Those things were made to made our life easier. And also, I think that only intelligent people should be allowed to go to college. If your parents don't have the money to pay for your college education(and if there are no scholarships-like in here), and some dumb person has richer parents-is that right? People are supposed to be good in what they do, and an unintelligent person can hardly do well in an job which asks for higher level of education. And by the way(This is meant for my math teacher), someone invented calculators!


  18. Congratulations!!!If she is that smart, you might want to get some good, and probably expensive education for her. When people have a gift, they should use it the right way. But still, she is five, and learning that much is difficult even for teenagers. The best way to make her stay smart and active is probably by getting her to solve logical 'math' problems(like an intelligence test). Smart(intelligent) people do not need information to figure something out or just to give the best ideas.
