August 21, 200718 yr Here is something i have wondered for a while. When you ask for extra cheese on your pizza, how do you know they gave you extra cheese, how do you know they didn't give you the same amount and charge you more for nothing. Unless you order one with normal amout of cheese and one with extra cheese. Thanks to Hardwick246 for the sig
August 21, 200718 yr I have a question I've been thinking about for a while: If the majority of Earth is made of of molten (therefore I pressume, stupidly hot) nickle and iron and whatnot, where does the energy to keep it hot come from?
August 21, 200718 yr Why do stars flicker? I know someone will probably know, but ive been wondering this for a while :-k
August 21, 200718 yr Why do stars flicker? I know someone will probably know, but ive been wondering this for a while :-k Turbulences in the atmosphere. If you were in a spaceship outside of the atmopshere, stars wouldn't flicker. [hide=Long answer, not mine]It's just like how things look wavy when you look over a hot grill in the summer, only on a smaller scale. An even better analogy is that looking at stars from inside our atmosphere is like birdwatching from the bottom of a swimming pool: the ripples distort the picture. That's one of the main reasons why space telescopes, like Hubble, provide such sharp pictures. In addition to contributing turbulence, the atmosphere also acts like a prism when you look at stars near the horizon. Since the star colors get split into a rainbow plus the turbulence makes the star move around, it can appear like the star is changing color. When I was a kid, I thought I had spotted a UFO when I saw a star do this... [/hide] This signature is intentionally left blank.
August 21, 200718 yr Why do some people enjoy child porn? I think it's disgusting and just sick. If the majority of Earth is made of of molten (therefore I pressume, stupidly hot) nickle and iron and whatnot, where does the energy to keep it hot come from? Itself. The earth corse is so big it's unimaginable for us, it stays warm for a long long time. Retired 2146 overall - 136 combat - 6 skillcapes Plus I think the whole teenage girl thing will end soon (hopefully), because my girlfriend is absolutely in love with him(she is 18), and im beginning to feel threatened by his [Justin Bieber] dashing looks.
August 22, 200718 yr I have a question I've been thinking about for a while: If the majority of Earth is made of of molten (therefore I pressume, stupidly hot) nickle and iron and whatnot, where does the energy to keep it hot come from? just a guess: gravity. There are 10 types of people: Those who understand binary, and those who don't.Appreciate Bacteria!

I would say the density of the center of the earth would be extremely great, and therefore cause massive heat :-s Tbfgraphx14Happy to find I'm not the only one who eats glass.
August 22, 200718 yr oh yeah, just remembered. the force of the weight of the rest of the earth is so great that the center of the earth is forced into a solid, this is the same force that causes the heat. translation of energy.

August 25, 200718 yr In two people under the age of consent agree to have sex, and they are caught. Is it rape, and who do they charge, the guy or the girl, if they both agreed equally to do it? That's wouldn't legally be rape, as far as I know, maybe their parents can be prosecuted for neglect? Its isn't rape and their parent won't get charged with neglect. The two kids would just probably get sent to juvy
August 25, 200718 yr what is pokemon? I was playing gears of war with my friend and i asked him what pokemon was because my 5 year old neighbor had a "pokemon battle" when he had to take his rat "minus(?)" to the vet after the cat "evie(?)" bit his leg. He also said he was going to get a growith(?) for his birthday....whatever the hell that is. All my friend did was laugh for 10 minutes and then tell me "pokemon is a video game/show where kids teach their pets to kill each other". So i'm really confused right now. :-k :-k :-k
August 25, 200718 yr It was originally a game for the Gameboy released in the late 90s. Your name is Ash Ketchum and you and Pikachu (A Pokemon) are on an adventure to beat the Elite 4, and capture as many Pokemon on the way. You must beat eight different gym leaders to get a badge. Those badges get you to the Elite 4. Pokemon I believe, is one of the best selling franchises, ever. There have also been numerous TV shows about the game. Also there are trading cards. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pokemon Here's how the name became about. "Pocket Monsters" (ÃÆãÃâ ââ¬â¢ÃâÃ

August 25, 200718 yr so pokemon are monsters right? not pets trained to kill each other? pokemon = pocket monsters. ...which is a little odd seeing as most of em arent even remotely pocket sized. However.. you control them.. like pets.. and train them to fight other pokemon..so in a way.. yes they are

Incorrect, In the UK at least, if two under age persons (male and female, homosexual consent laws are different) have sex the male and male ONLY can be charged with statutory rape regardless of the female's consent. Sexism = alive and well in UK law.
August 25, 200718 yr last I checked it is the same way in the US, though I was not sure. Sorry for any confusion...

August 26, 200718 yr Not correct, only statutory rape if one partner is over 18. e.g If woman of 25 has sex with 15 year old boy she is guilty of statutory rape. Edit: The onyl thing in UK law that is different is if a girl is under 12 and the boy she has sex with is older it's statutory rape. With so many trees in the city you could see the spring coming each day until a night of warm wind would bring it suddenly in one morning. Sometimes the heavy cold rains would beat it back so that it would seem that it would never come and that you were losing a season out of your life. But you knew that there would always be the spring as you knew the river would flow again after it was frozen. When the cold rains kept on and killed the spring, it was as though a young person had died for no reason. In those days though the spring always came finally but it was frightening that it had nearly failed.
August 26, 200718 yr sexual assault == rape. at least in the us, it is "rape" if both are under the age, or if just the woman isn't. not sure about older women though...

August 26, 200718 yr Not correct, only statutory rape if one partner is over 18. e.g If woman of 25 has sex with 15 year old boy she is guilty of statutory rape. Satutory rape =\= rape. This is how much you all raised for charity. Thank you.
