I guess you're paying him to scam you. How does it feel to be the mark?...
Bright Star

This is such a great movie. I love how expressive Abbie Cornish is in it. When I was watching it, it just jumped out how many actresses must use Botox.
Look when she smiles how the area around her mouth crinkles, as well as her eyes. And when she raises her eyebrows, her whole forehead moves.

Cap and Trade is one of the most pro-business initiatives around.
It promotes diversification of revenue for energy companies, broadens the scope of potential customers and markets, and encourages research and development on sustainable non-carbon based power sources.
Why do you think BP wou...

Industry info/ IEEE
It's usually a combo of electrical, mechanical, process, and chemical engr. The old timers had EE or ChemE backgrounds and ended up in power. Programs fixed that so students graduating would have the needed skill set.
It's a huge field. Dartmouth, RPI, and Carnegie Mellon a...

Biomedical engineering is a good field too. There is a high demand to shift from human to robotic health care. Easy example would be a nurse who takes blood pressure to an automatic cuff that does it.
Another example would be surgery by robots.
In the same vein, business process re-engineeri...
World Cup Soccer Ball Flaws Acknowledged by FIFA
Posted by tigerpurple84 on 6/26/10 at 1:52 pm
Not saying it's the reason, but anyone think this might have something to do with why formerly incredible teams - Italy, France, etc. - are being ejected so early?
If those teams played with better quality balls in the WC, it would be logical to assume that it's because they trained with better...

re: Solaris (1972)

I love this video. It's Tarkovsky talking about art.
I love how he says art is the means to enhance human's goal to enhance spirituality.
For me, I've learned more about faith through his movies than all of the years I went to Catholic school (from K-12)

Andrei Rublev changed my life and thoughts on God.
And if I ever meet a woman who says she's seen Mirror (and liked it), I will marry her ON THE SPOT. :cheers:
Here's a link to polaroids taken by Tarkovsky. He was the man!
