we just get a hand scanner, beep the codes in the store, see our total amound (including discounts) hang the scanner and pay with a card. Easy as hell and you dont have to unload the goods from the bag again. They keep us honest by using suprise bagchecks. (at the pay terminal).
new idea: maybe the wrinkling is a side effect from the constriction of the blood vessels, what only happens to restrict heat loss. (how often would one get wrinkly fingers in nice warm water in survival conditions?)
Al tough the rain-tire-finger-trick sound fancier :)
annyone who has lived in a city that bike friendly, (visit the Netherlands some time) knows that's its not helmets that make it safe, its understanding and infrastructure. There are MAYBE one or two helmets to be spotted for every 100 cyclists, and those who wear them are either speed racers or kids under 4.
The Netherlands have one of the highest number of bike trips, yet one of the lowest traffic deaths in the world. And virtually no helmets on bikes.
There are server studies that show wearing a bike helmet makes it less safe, because cars will pass closer, and the cyclist them self take more risk (they feel protected.) Also, most bike helmets are so flimsy in most car vs cyclist collisions it makes no difference.
@jim: also: building larger stuff on the moon would be easier to get of te ground again to move em to mars. Compare the rocket that took the appollo mission up to the lander itself) (and easier than space building because you can walk around with traction.)
wel, the balck and white one wil stay available, so this only alows more people to see the content. It's not a terible thing if some VHS classics are being released on dvd or streaming media, you can stil watch the original if you wish.
well i would want to be on the receiving end of those. The chinese had magazine fed crosbows, they dint hit hard, but a lot, and the lack off punch was easly solved with poison.

*altough it would make sense if they hired them to refine the lessons :)
That makes you 26% faster than the national average.
Felt a bit slow, the text was full of "not common" words.
That it was in english din't help much :) Is there a Dutch version somewhere?
