oh man, poor Potter fans in China, the new movie is great btw. saw it yesterday in an English language screening :) but Transformers? haven't seen the new one, doubt it is a loss ;)
I really love astronomy and cosmology, thanks for these pictures. It is so humbling to see our pale blue dot out there in the nothingness of space. We all share it and should realize that we all share the same fate ultimately.

Great Video (part 1 of a series)
Lol, congrats :) I've never been to one but they are very popular in eastern Germany.
Is there a nudist movement in Sri Lanka? Or is it basically only for tourists?
The 20 billion already payed by the US alone (not to mention additional international funds) in the last 10 years should easily cover that and more.. so no, it doesn't owe Pakistan anything.
The US doesn't "owe" Pakistan anything.. They gave almost 20 billion in aid since 2001, for what? So Bin Laden could hide close to Islamabad next to a military facility? I am being a bit cynical but seriously though.. what was it good for?
To the Americans on here, was it worth it?
In...
Never, I say! :)
If my government even considers such madness, tens of thousands will be on the streets here (and I will join them) and rightfully so.
I wish all the best to the pro-democracy movement all over the middle east, but military intervention should be a last resort measure and...
This needs a source.
Here's one: Assad loyalists storm US and French embassies - Middle East - Al Jazeera English
Maybe edit the opening post?
Quite a disturbing development, Syria should do a better job in protecting embassies otherwise they could be viewed as complicit..
Wow the hurt feelings card again... grow the f*ck up and stop whining about stuff on the other side of the planet.
You know what should hurt your feelings as a human being? That some Muslim fathers or brothers kill their daughters or sisters when they want to leave Islam..
I know you always...

That would be completely legal, although it is something quite different than protecting people from a potentially violent backlash of the family when leaving a religion..
You would be real-life trolling, but perfectly within your rights. However I imagine it would be very unsuccessful since...
I did not expect this from a Saudi, so thanks for this positive suprise! I hope you get that right in your own country too and soon, honestly!
@Topic:
It is a small victory for Israel, yet I think it won't be the last flotilla.. There are a lot of people especially in the West who fall far the...
Well, no one knows ;)
But I wager it will be a more equal (especially between men and women), definitely more fun (because Religions are not known for their good sense of humor), smarter (no evolution denial..) and all in all happier place. :)
There will most likely still be wars, crime and...
To think it is important to have the world's "largest", "longest" and "highest" whatever is just another form of a penis-size contest in my humble opinion... :rolleyes:
More important is that things work, are durable and cost-effective. And as Chinese-build railway roads and other...
There actually have been Atheist buses all over the West calling for people to think about leaving Religion behind altogether Link.
So this general development is not targeting Islam specifically. Secular people have become more outspoken and grown in numbers all over the West (and probably...
