  1. Once we have re-equiped and retrained the Iraq Army they will probably attack Iran anyway.... No hope for Afghanistan, they have gone back to producing dope and killing each other
  2. Resurecting this thread for discussion purposes. Have a look at Salar's thread on the Sea Fishing Reports section. Might be of interest to some and better discussed in this section. http://www.anglersnet.co.uk/ubb/ultimatebb...0335;p=1#000004 [ 04. February 2005, 01:43 PM: Message edited by: Huge_Vitae ]
  3. Yup...... you are to blame m8. Personally I think if we get hold of Kent Angler and burn him it might help.
  4. Have we got any Librarians here...... Five Surgeons Five surgeons were taking a coffee break and discussing their work. "I think accountants are the easiest to operate on," said the first surgeon. "You open them up and everything inside is numbered." "I think librarians are the easiest to operate on," said the second. "You open them up and everything inside is in alphabetical order." "I like to operate on electricians," said the third. "You open them up and everything inside is color-coded." "I like to operate on lawyers," said the fourth. "They're heartless, spineless, gutless, and their heads and their asses are interchangeable." "I like engineers," said the fifth. "They always understand when you have a few parts left over at the end..."
  5. And even one for NurseJudy!!! "I have good news and bad news," the defense lawyer says to his client. "What's the bad news?" The lawyer says, "Your blood matches the DNA found at the murder scene." "Dammit!" cries the client. "What's the good news?" "Well," the lawyer says, "Your cholesterol is down to 140."
  6. or........ New Improved Lawnmowers One day a lawyer was riding in his limosine when he saw a guy eating grass He told the driver to stop. He got out and asked him, "Why are you eating grass". The man replied, "I'm so poor, I can't afford a thing to eat." So the layer said, "Poor guy, come back to my house." The guys then said, "But I have a wife and three kids." The lawyers told him to bring them along. When they were all in the car, the poor man said, "Thanks for taking us back to your house, it is so kind of you." The lawyer said, "You're going to love it there, the grass is a foot tall."
  7. LOL....... looks like we have found a thing we all have jokes about... Next.......... Few Good lawyers A lawyer is standing in a long line at the box office. suddenly, he feels a pair of hands kneading his shoulders, back, and neck. The lawyer turns around. "What the hell do you think you're doing?" "I'm a chiropractor, and I'm just keeping in practice while I'm waiting in line." "Well, I'm a lawyer, but you don't see me screwing the guy in front of me, do you?"
  8. Where else but in America can a poor black boy grow up to be a Rich white Female
  9. An engineer dies and reports to the pearly gates. St. Peter checks his dossier and says, "Ah, you're an engineer --you're in the wrong place." So, the engineer reports to the gates of hell and is let in. pretty soon, the engineer gets dissatisfied with the level of comfort in hell, and starts designing and building improvements. After awhile, they've got air conditioning and flush toilets and escalators, and the engineer is a pretty popular guy. One day, God calls Satan up on the telephone and says with a sneer, "So, how's it going down there in hell?" Satan replies, "Hey, things are going great. We've got air conditioning and flush toilets and escalators, and there's no telling what this engineer is going to come up with next." God replies, "WHAT You've got an engineer? That's a mistake -- he should never have gotten down there; send him up here." Satan says, "No way. I like having an engineer on the staff, and I'm keeping him." God says, "Send him back up here or I'll sue." Satan laughs uproariously and answers, "Yeah, right. And just where are YOU going to get a lawyer?"
  10. probably the best bet is with one of the larger companies, such as Napster, or Itunes. With these companies you pay a certain amount (around £4 a month for unlimited downloads dependant on company)and this is the safest legal way of getting mp3's. Be careful of fake companies who get you to pay, and yet its actully an illegal downloading website (such as kazaa), these programs are also likely to carry spyware/adware. Hope this helps.
  11. Southampton also assisted in the biggest research study ever undertaken inb the Oceans re circulation and salinity. You can read about it.... here But it is an 18Mb D/L and a bit much for my tin can and string connection to BT
  12. Bit too complex to summarize without some getting the wrong end of the stick. read from page 6 You will see that this paper/theory was written before "The Day After Tomorrow" proved it to be FACT
  13. Keep it up Alan, you are obviously winning... ding ding round 6
  14. That guy lives near me I think!!!
  15. This is not a small point at all Socksy. This has already been identified and research carried out in (amongst other places) The Solent. This week Scientists in Isreal have identified a rapid rise in Ph levels in the Red Sea which is already having an effect on some of the more delicate species such as Corals. The warning is, that if we do not stop pumping acids into the environment, causing acid raid and the like, that the Red Sea, as a BioDiverse Marine Ecosystem will cease to be there in the immediate future. :mad: PS. Socksy and Jim, Don't become amazed at my knowledge here, I didn't listen in Chemistry either. Thanks to My Son Matt, A Marine Biologist and Oceanographer at Southampton University School Of Earth Sciences and Oceanographic Research Center, In other words I cheated.
  16. Ice forms when the temperature of water reaches 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius). When you add salt, that temperature drops: A 10-percent salt solution freezes at 20 F (-6 C), and a 20-percent solution freezes at 2 F (-16 C). Therefore as the Glaciers formed over an immence period of gradual cooling of the planet they are mainly composed of freshwater. Icebergs are large floating chunks of Freshwater ice. In order to float, the iceberg displaces a volume of water that has a weight equal to that of the iceberg. Submarines use this principle to rise and sink in the water by changing their weight. But the rising temperature and icebergs could play a small role in the rising ocean level. Icebergs are chunks of frozen glaciers that break off from landmasses and fall into the ocean. The rising temperature may be causing more icebergs to form by weakening the glaciers, causing more cracks and making ice more likely to break off. As soon as the ice falls into the ocean, the ocean rises a little. If the rising temperature affects glaciers and icebergs, could the polar ice caps be in danger of melting and causing the oceans to rise? This could happen, but no one knows when it might happen. The main ice covered landmass is Antarctica at the South Pole, with about 90 percent of the world's ice (and 70 percent of its fresh water). Antarctica is covered with ice an average of 2,133 meters (7,000 feet) thick. If all of the Antarctic ice melted, sea levels around the world would rise about 61 meters (200 feet). But the average temperature in Antarctica is -37°C, so the ice there is in no danger of melting. In fact in most parts of the continent it never gets above freezing. At the other end of the world, the North Pole, the ice is not nearly as thick as at the South Pole. The ice floats on the Arctic Ocean. If it melted sea levels would not be affected. There is a significant amount of ice covering Greenland, which would add another 7 meters (20 feet) to the oceans if it melted. Because Greenland is closer to the equator than Antarctica, the temperatures there are higher, so the ice is more likely to melt. But there might be a less dramatic reason than polar ice melting for the higher ocean level -- the higher temperature of the water. Water is most dense at 4 degrees Celsius. Above and below this temperature, the density of water decreases (the same weight of water occupies a bigger space). So as the overall temperature of the water increases it naturally expands a little bit making the oceans rise. In 1995 the International Panel on Climate Change issued a report which contained various projections of the sea level change by the year 2100. They estimate that the sea will rise 50 centimeters (20 inches) with the lowest estimates at 15 centimeters (6 inches) and the highest at 95 centimeters (37 inches). The rise will come from thermal expansion of the ocean and from melting glaciers and ice sheets. Twenty inches is no small amount -- it could have a big effect on coastal cities, especially during storms.
  17. Jim, Methinks you were not paying attention to School Chemistry Teachers.
  18. true
  19. The truest words are often spoken in jest [ 02. February 2005, 03:43 PM: Message edited by: Huge_Vitae ]
  20. I remember that as well Ken. They reakoned they could get them as far as Saudi Arabia and still be viable!!!
  21. It's from a Firm in Australia that I am importing some fishing gear from. They are made in NZ. full details
  22. A Blonde's Brain At Work A blonde, a brunette, and a redhead all work at the same office for a female boss who always goes home early. "Hey, girls," says the brunette, "let's go home early tomorrow. She'll never know." So the next day, they all leave right after the boss does. The brunette gets some extra gardening done, the redhead goes to a bar, and the blonde goes home to find her husband having sex with the female boss! She quietly sneaks out of the house and returns at her normal time. "That was fun," says the brunette. "We should do it again sometime." "No way," says the blonde. "I almost got caught."
  23. Sorry about that mate........ you must be gutted. I trust you had a reserve lined up for such an occurance
