Its inevitable: Every time we start a conversation about Hunger Games, someone always starts a Battle Royale did it first argument. It unavoidable. So we decided to compare both series, to settle this debate once and for all. Both stories originated as books. The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins came out stanley cup in 2008 and Battle Royale by Koushun Takami was published in 1999. While we didn ;t have a copy of Takami book handy, we did get a chance to screen the Battle Royale Blu-Ray release, which is what we ;re using as basis for mos stanley flask t of this debate. So please, if we ;ve missed something vital from Takami original book, let us know. Now let get started, here are all the similarities between the two: The Future: While Battle Royale takes place in an alternate timeline in the not too distant future of Japan, The Hunger Games is set in the post apocalyptic wasteland of what once was North America. Verdict: Different The Rationale: The Program or the BR Act as it is referred to in BR and The Games as they are called in HG are both used by the government instil a sense of terror into the population. Both sets of children grow up a totalitarian stanley usa government 鈥?but in the BR movie The Program was enacted specifically to scare the pants off the new rising groups of angry and violent youths: At the dawn of the millennium, the nation collapsed. At fifteen percent unemployment, ten million were out of work. 800,000 student Wtse TouchPad 4G Now Pre-Orderable at Amazon
Some earthquakes are so powerful they can actually stanley nz be felt up in space. Looking to take advantage of this phenomenon, a group of researchers have created the world first seismometer in orbit around the Earth. Well, to be more accurate, they ;re re-purposing a satellite originally designed to measure gravity fields on our planet surface. It likely a precursor to more powerful space-based statio stanley taza ns that will help geologists monitor earthquakes 鈥?and even covert nuclear tests 鈥?as they happen. It called the Gravity Field and Steady-State Ocean Circulation Explorer GOCE , and it was launched into orbit by the European Space Agency in 2009. It equipped with a highly sensitive gravity gradiometer which detects fine density differences in the crust and oceans of the Earth. It also has six accelerometers, which is what allows it to detect seismic disturbances. Oh, and those thrusters you see in the above image 鈥?thos stanley cup e are QinetiQ T5 ion thrusters that can be employed to adjust its orientation in low Earth orbit. https://youtube/watch v=n3gB_ZCWkXs GOCE has been used to probe hazardous volcanic regions and changing ocean conditions. And in fact, along with other satellite altimeters, it has been able to use its gravity-sniffing capabilities to measure sea surface height, which helps geologists and oceanographers track the direction and speed of geostrophic ocean currents. But back in 2011, GOCE monitoring team noticed that the s
