The Encontro das Aguas in Brazil, or the “Meeting of the Waters,” is one of those places on Earth where you just say: “Wow!” |
“Six Mississippis’ worth of cafe-au-lait-colored water are converging here with two Mississippis’ worth of black-tea-colored water to produce the greatest hydrologic spectacle on the planet,” said Robert Meade, who spent decades studying rivers for the U.S. Geological Survey. “Put in terms of the sheer quantities of wa... |

Today, I summoned up the courage to tell my crush how I've felt about her for the past two years. I really poured out my heart and soul, and she nodded and smiled throughout. Once I'd finished, she told me that she believes "sex is unnatural", and that she could never date a guy who wanted it. FML |

Press statement by Pieter Jaap Aalbersberg, head of the repatriation mission |
This morning a team of 38 Dutch and 12 Australian experts headed out to the MH17 crash site in eastern Ukraine for the 2nd time to investigate the area for the 1st time and search for remains and personal belongings. Unfortunately, they were unable to access the site because of gunfire near the town of Shaktarsk. In co... |
The experts and I are deeply disappointed that we were unable to reach the crash site again. Our colleagues in Donetsk are highly driven and motivated to get to work at the site. They left the Netherlands with great haste for this mission. It is frustrating to have to wait to do the job they came to do. Their motivatio... |
I fly many SLKs and use line from 20# to 1200#. |
I have anchored down kites on 20# line and hand flown others on 300# line. It depends on the situation and how I am feeling. But SAFETY must come first. |
The key SAFETY question is can you RETREIVE the kite. |
The rule would be always set a anchor first before you launch ANY kite(s) that you may not be able to retreive. Then you just need the skills to tie a line with tension on it. |
(be glad to help if you need it) |
Ability to fly be hand, is not based on line strength but the amount of pull. In 10mph you maybe fine 15 mph and your in trouble |
remember you can adjust the bridle point to lower the pull in higher winds |
So, to answer your question. Yes you can in some winds you can. But would you want to. You may get tired soon. |

What is the path of least resistance to a fresh coat? |
Strip the stripes. Wet sand the hulls. Buff them out. Replace the stripes (optional). Wax. You'll want a rotary buffer with a couple of different pads and an orbital polisher for the wax. You can do it in a day, but you'll be really tired when you're done. |
What type of paint? |
None. Don't do it. Doing it right is more work. Doing it half-assed looks . . . half-assed. |
What is the process of repainting her? |
If you really want to go there, surface prep is the key to a great looking paint job. The more time you spend there, the better it will look. However, any paint job is going to chip, flake and get worn off the bottoms. It fills up the pattern in the non-skid. Paint isn't as thick as gel coat and isn't as flexible. |
The best-looking paint |
Oh no! Well this is embarrassing...almost as bad as running out of your favorite vintage. Let's see if we can help point you in the right direction. |

Since I only collect OT-era Imperials, I can only offer my opinions on those chars, but... some I'd like to see are: |
1) Death Star Commander - Yes! A very needed character who would be easy to make |
2) I second the red Stormies, although I know alot of purists will hate them. I think they are cool and I'm sure they'd sell strongly. |
3) The gray Imperial technician idea above is a good one, although the arms of the "Imperial Officer" figure are so limited and awful. Perhaps use differenly jointed arms so they can straighten out? |
4) My biggest want, however is... |

A heartbreaking family secret has marred the happiness of Brad and Angelina. As the Tomb Raider beauty should have been enjoying the lead-up to becoming Mrs. Pitt, she has been tormented by her mother's battle with cancer, say insiders. |
Mom Marcheline Bertrand has been hospitalized with the disease — and Angelina flew to hold a bedside vigil for her, says a family friend. |
"Angelina is worried sick about her mom," said the friend. "Everything else in Angie's life is perfect. She's excited about being married and raising a family with Brad. But her mom's cancer hangs like a dark cloud over everything." |
The National Enquirer can reveal Marcheline has p |
LOS ANGELES — Haim Weizman is a chemist by trade and an Internet moviemaker on the side. |
In his first video, a telegenic narrator in a lab coat swirls a flask as electronic music plays in the background. Created by four science and film students at the University of California at San Diego, the video shows a typical recrystallization experiment straight out of Chemistry 101. |
The six-minute epic complete with bloopers got 1,205 views on Google Inc.'s YouTube, but the number increased fourfold when the video was posted to SciVee, one of a number of online video-sharing startups designed to let scientists broadcast themselves toiling in the laboratory or delivering lectures. |

'I felt I had killed my mate' - Private Paul Warren |
- From: news.com.au |
- September 12, 2013 |
PRIVATE Paul Warren suffered a horrific injury while serving in Afghanistan - a buried bomb exploded and took off his leg. |
But the physical recovery he had to make was nothing compared to the emotional. Private Warren had to come to terms with the fact that the bomb he accidentally detonated also killed his mate. |
It was a scorching summer day on July 18, 2009 in the Uruzgan province. |
Just six weeks into his first tour of duty, Private Warren and his fellow soldiers had surrounded the compound of a notorious insurgent bomb maker. He had been lying outside on the ground next to his 22-year-old colleague Private Benjamin Ranaudo, behind a mag 58 machine gun, for two hours. He shifted slightly behind h |
