No, they're listening to the latest Eurovision contestants. Definitely.

Originally posted by Halcyon+On+On I wonder if shit floats around in your body in zero-G. Obviously the intestines are quite constrictive, so it's probably not going to float up into your stomach and right out of your throat, but who knows? Maybe space morning breath is extra bad.

We actually have a sphincter between the stomach and lower intestine, this is the only reason why astronauts don't burp a fart..... or furp, as we like to call it.

I fucking love science.

How long, in your estimation, would it have taken to pray the paralysis away? Rather longer, I suspect.

I was waiting for this to turn into The Awesome Religion Bashing Thread

We already have a whole forum for that.

About 12-14 years on average, I'd say. The smaller dogs usually live a couple more years.

When a magnitude 6.8 earthquake shook Olympia, Wash., in 2001, shopowner Jason Ward discovered that a sand-tracing pendulum had recorded the vibrations in the image above.

Seismologists say that the �flower� at the center reflects the higher-frequency waves that arrived first; the outer, larger-amplitude oscillations record the lower-frequency waves that arrived later.

�You never think about an earthquake as being artistic � it�s violent and destructive,� Norman MacLeod, president of Gaelic Wolf Consulting in Port Townsend, told ABC News. �But in the middle of all that chaos, this fine, delicate artwork was created.

That's disturbingly beautiful, Selma.

.. and Karim, that gif is awesome!

I can't take credit for finding this (I think I found it via Jamie)... but this is absolutely incredible...

Anyone have a greedy python algorithm somewhere?

Anyways, I just found out about Project Euler too

I'm a bit scattered brain but you get my drift (fuck you Oxford comma)

Or probably not ; no one gives a shit anyways.

Because they can signify education, rather than the slicks of nepotism?

Not according to Penguin, look it up.

I found one in Java

Kruskal and Prim's algorithms for finding Minimal Spanning Trees should be no problem to find code examples for in any language.

hhhhwhat. So we haven't had to breathe since fucking JUNE? Why am I always the last to know?

I haven't been breathing for years. God now this is going to go mainstream. Maybe I can breathe ironically from now on.

Nice for divers, and we need an alternative for "Hold your breath".

I was thinking exactly the same thing..... but it's probably more useful in first aid kits. Maybe.

Think it's awesome and I'm not scared anymore for pythons and boa constrictors when having a first aid kit

Mr. Hugo posted this on Facebook, but it's absolutely worth posting here...

The article is a bit shallow as it doesn't deal with the most important aspects of cancer: hematogenic and lymphatic dissemination as well as the different types of tissue-invasion. Cancer is not that simple of a disease since it drags along tons and tons of complications. Theoretically, any type of neoplasm can be cured as long as it's discovered on time. And even IF these malignant cells are being killed it would probably end up leaving massive scar tissue.

A bit too optimistic.

Anyway, don't want to be a dullard, so here's a full 3D rendering of the human body:
