    A Muslim's perspective

    Hi John, I think people get very confused when we see in our media that "beloved patriot" is an offensive term. I remember the furore that surrounded Prince Harry last year. http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/prince-harry-says-sorry-again/story-e6frg6to-1111118535564 Not being able to visit...

    The West's moral authority: to Challenge other muslims on the basics of their faith

    Magomago. First off, I thank you for one of the most thought out and heartfelt posts that I have seen on P&N. Many of the problems the we see in Islam seem to be from incorrect interpretations (whether deliberate or not) of the intent of Islam, just as many of the "sins" of christianity are...

    If you're looking for some new, extremely amusing comedy material...

    Slightly OT, Dug, have you been watching the series by Tony Robinson on ABC "The worst jobs in history"? BTW Tony Robinson played "Baldric" in Black Adder. He also does the worst job from each period that he looks at, last week he was a Fuller, yep, he was ankle deep in week old urine fulling...

    Is there any meat better than rabbit meat?

    Yeah, Kangaroo is susceptaple to fluke, but it concentrates in the liver, if the liver is free of parasites so is the meat. Like every thing else, if you buy from reputable sources you've got no worries. The other problem with roo is that because it has very very little fat, if you stuff up...

    Going to Melbourne Australia

    Great ocean road is a must do. Stop off at the Wye River Pub for lunch (this is set in a great little cove). Stop off at Apollo bay for coffee (the last coffee I had there, the barista was st*ned off his nut, but was one of the best coffees I have ever had!). This looks like fun! Do the...

    This is not your proof, you have made the assumption 1/9 = .11111...... exactly, let's test this assumption. back to basic division. Sorry for the bad (or total lack of) formatting. 1/9 = 0.1 with 0.1 remainder. = 0.11 with 0.01 remainder = 0.111 with 0.001 remainder = 0.1111 with...

    Is there a non-chain/franchise coffee shop around you that is successful?

    It is funny to see the chains so dominate in the US. In Melbourne, Australia, most people go to non-chain coffee shops (exception: the chain/franchise stores dominate in the shopping malls, but who goes to a mall expecting quality coffee?). There are quite a number of shopping strips that...

    YACKANDANDAH RULES

    I used to stop there on the way back from my parents place. Now that my sister lives in Barnawartha, we don't do this anymore. Bummer about the Barny pub burning down. :( Love the old gold mining town feel of the place. It's less commercial than Beechworth.

    2 years ago AU$0.95/litre (US$2.70/gallon) 1 year ago AU$1.15/litre (US$3.26/gallon) last night I saw AU$1.45/litre (US$4.12/gallon) Australia has more taxes on its fuel, but then we are not as bad some of the European countries.

    Would faster than light travel have the greatest impact on human civilization?

    Well, say goodbye Earth! The only way to do this (with our current understanding) is with an exotic object that has imaginary mass. Now we do not know if such stuff does or even if it can exist, but if it does I would imagine that the meeting of matter and imaginary matter is not going to be...

    Would faster than light travel have the greatest impact on human civilization?

    IIRC it has been demonstrated that this is theoretically possible, but the energy involved to warp spacetime the size smaller than an atom will require the energy equivalence of 10 billion times the mass of our universe. This ain't happening in my lifetime. Great moments in science 3

    Would faster than light travel have the greatest impact on human civilization?

    :thumbsup: Yes fitzov is referring to a commonly held misconception that the Lorentz transformation equations that Einstein used in Special relativity use the speed of light in a medium. This is incorrect. The equations use the constant "c" which is "the speed of light in a VACUUM. The...

    eating emu

    I find emu a bit too gamey. However, if you like strong flavoured meats you would like it. I had the meat from wild birds, maybe farmed animals have been bred to tone down the flavour a bit.

    Why don't they do crash tests where the target is moving?

    I suspect that when you have a stuff load of very expensive and immobile detection equipment (ie. high speed cameras) and the fact that you only get one shot at the collision, it is a good idea to know exactly where the collision is taking place. Not too mention that the moving vehicle is...

    Why does my meat get slimey???

    Do you buy the meat from a supermarket? If you do, find a quality Deli in your area (if they have not all been closed down!!) I find that food usually lasts longer if it is not bought from a supermarket. If not, as FishTaco suggested, freeze what you don't use immediately. I do that with ham...

    A penny now costs 1.4 cents to make.

    Australia quite successfully got rid of 1 and 2 cent coins in the 1980's before the advent of widespread electronic cash registers. One of the better decisions by the government of the day. If your total bill ends in 1 or 2 cents round down to 0, 3-4 cents round up to 5... etc. After the...

    Why should Iran be disallowed to have nukes?

    Fair point. The attempts by the Kurds to establish a homeland have been thwarted ever since the 7th century (by the Arabs) and the 15th century (by the Ottomans), when do they get their independent state? I presume that you were referring to Palestine in your original comment. A couple of...

    what's the possibility of life forms chemically different than earth's

    It is not such a bad assumption when you consider that there is so much to look for with limited resources. If your resources are limited you have to 1) choose things that are most likely to give you success and 2) look for what you know. Please note that I am not arguing that other forms of...

    Poll: Do you secretly (or openly) support higher gas prices?

    A small rise might actually be good. A small rise dampens consumer sentiment, and therefore reduces inflationary pressures so that Reserve Bank is not likely to raise interest rates. Good for me as I have just started a mortgage and in Australia most mortgages are variable rate (you can get...

    Cheating?

    Not me. If you want to boff other people while in a relationship, say so at the start and agree to an open relationship. If the other party does not agree then either 1) don't cheat or 2) end the relationship then and there and find someone that will.

    Is this BS? China to build first FUSION reactor soon. Claims the tech is ready.

    Just have to do a little bit of correction here, the last possible fusion product is not Iron. All of the elements (except of course Hydrogen!) are produced from fusion. Man is able to create small amounts of elements (viz californium, which does not occur in nature on Earth) through a fusion...

    Fair point mate, if the statement is made just by itself, you are quite right. I was more focusing on your comment about the US being a police state. However, in the short reading that I have done since, I suspect if you joked about "IT" in reference to supporting a banned organisation or...

    Simple rule in life, do not buy meat at a supermarket, find a quality butcher. EDIT: similar rule applies for vegetables, find a decent greengrocer.
