Ujpm Homer Simpson Discovers the Dangers Of Electronic Voting
This October, IDW and DC Comics will team up for Star Trek/Legion of Superheroes a six-issue miniseries penned by Chris Roberson a stanley becher nd illustrated by art by Jeffrey and Philip Moy. Sadly, it doesn ;t look like Matter-Eater Lad will eat his way through a Tribble invasion. Here the synopsis of the miniseries, which was announced today at Comic-Con: STAR TREK/LEGION OF SUPERHEROES tells t stanley cup spain he tale of the original crew of the Starship Enterprise, who beam down to a planet only to discover that the planet isn ;t their intended destination, or even in the right universe. At the same time, a group of Great Darkness Saga Legionnaires inside a time sphere find themselves cast into the 23rd century, but it not the 23rd century as they know it, either. STAR TREK/LEGION OF SUPERHEROES is a galaxy-spanning adventure that draws both teams together to face a menace that includes K stanley borraccia hunds, Klingons, Borg, and other threats that aren ;t quite as they should be. The egalitarian United Planets in one universe and a United Federation of Planets in another is now the Imperial Planets of Terra, a dark empire focused on war and conquest, and that just the beginning for this special series. Can we at least have a finger-waggling duet of Anything You Can Do between Darkseid and Ricardo Montalb谩n Also, the last time the Trek crew met superheroes, Wolverine was shamed. https://gizmodo/wolverines-10-most-morti...ts-5496844 Jxdn Beer Is Good: Happy International Beer Day
The more we learn about the universe, the more we discover just how diverse all its planets, stars, nebulae and unexplained chunks of matter really are. So what is all this matter doing in our universe, other than just floating in space Well, it just so happens that there is a theory that gives a kind of raison d ;etre to our universe and all the objects flying through it. If true, it would mean that our universe is nothing mo stanley cups re than a black hole generator, or a means to produce as many baby universes as possible. To learn more, we spoke to the man who came up with the idea. It called the theory of Cosmological Natural Selection and it was conjured by Lee Smolin, a researcher at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics and and an adjunct professor of physics at the University of Waterloo. In his book, The Life of the Cosmos, Smolin stanley cup proposed that Darwinian processes still apply at the extreme macro-scal stanley mugs e and to non-biological entities. Because the universe is a potentially replicative unit, he suggests that it subject to selectional pressures. Consequently, nearly everything the universe does is geared toward replication.

Wcnt A Forgettable Camera/Media Player Is Suddenly Worth Remembering When It s Just $22
There no smoking in front of Forth Valley Royal Hospital in Scotland鈥攖he sign says so鈥攖hough nobody really paid attention to it. That why the hospital installed a loudspeaker-backed smoke alarm commanding cigarette scofflaws鈥攊n no uncertain terms鈥攖o cut that shit out. Despite warning signs telling patients, visitors and staff that stanley flasche smoking is banned in the hospital grounds, people continue to smoke. The result is masses of cigarette ends littering the area. Mike Mackay, Contract Director for the company that installed the device, said in a statement. To combat this, the new alarm will play a prerecorded message whenever someone lights up near the hospital front entrance. The system is reportedly sensitive enough to trigger if even a single person takes a drag. If the current system is successful, the hospital plans to install it at every entrance. FVRH administrators hope that the new enforcem stanley termosky ent method will improve conditions for patients and staff while helping the hospital reach its goal of helping 5,000 people in Forth Valley quit smoking by March 2014. As of 2011 it had helped about 1,600 people. It ;ll be interesting to see if this actually will dissuade smokers or if people will just learn to tune out the warnings like the rest of urban background noise.

The past 27 years has seen a shocking reduction in the amount of coral cover in Australia Great Barrier Reef 鈥?according to a new study, it down to half the size it was in 1985. This rather depressing analysis shows a drop of 50.7%, thanks to data gathered from more than 2,000 surveys of 214 reefs. They were even able to break down the cause of this decline into three sections: storm damage 48% , bleaching 10% , and a full 42% can be attributed to the crown of thorns starfish.

The Light Mill never reached the popularity of the Drinking Bird or Newton Cradle, but chances are you ;ve seen it. It looks like a light bulb with four spinning paddles inside. Although no power is pumped through the mill, it spins as long as light hits it. Find out how these little mills work, and how some day we might use them to jet around nebulae. The Light Mill is one of the many toys that were invented well before anyone knew how they worked. And ultimately, they turned out to hold the key to a source of energy we might one day exploit when we ;re a fully space-going species.

One side of each paddle is painted black while the other is silver. As soon as light hits the Light Mill, the paddles begin to spin.

He was not correct. Since black absorbs photo botella stanley ns and silver reflects it, the silver should turn away from the light.
