5000 year old navigation system discovered {Gadling}
Sep 16th 2009 12:11PM Not to belabor the obvious, but the diagram describes a Fibonacci spiral otherwise know as the Golden Section. Seems there is more here to be uncovered.
Ex-Astronaut Says We've Made Contact With Aliens. Convinced? {Asylum}
Apr 25th 2009 12:55PM I am convinced that there IS intelligent life elsewhere in the universe, however this blogger has missed the point, reinforcing my belief that Earth is not one of the places intelligent life is found. Mitchell's claims are about how that hard evidence many or most require exists but is withheld by those in power.

Will Ryanair charge passengers to use the toilet? It might. {Gadling}
Feb 28th 2009 3:33PM Nice.. I actually was introduced to the concept of selling squares in Cairo in 1999. You can use the WC for free, you just can't clean up for free. Perhaps he wants people to think of Ryan Air as a third world airline?
I'm sorry, I don't (or can't) eat that {Slashfood}
Sep 2nd 2006 5:50PM I love to cook (in part because I love to eat) and have dated a woman with food challenges as well as hosted parties for which I have prepared lots of great food. In the case of hosting parties, I am happy to cater to the allergic or the nothing with a face crowd.
That said, after spending months dealing with a companion who made everyone around her crazy with her incescent demands for special foods and food preparation, I just wanted to cram her whiney mouth full of all the stuff she couldnt eat. It seems that there were more foods on her restricted list than not.
I dumped this chick and have lost 20 pounds since my diet isn't being driven by her nonsense. Let them eat cake!
Should The Da Vinci Code Come with a Disclaimer? {Cinematical}
May 11th 2006 8:36PM Referring to comment #20: Since when is Jesus (Christ was the message) well documented historically? He is is a shadow, with mere suggestions of his existance to be found in contemporary sources (contemporary to him). That aside, I do consider myself a Christian, but have no delusions about the religion's history. What I am not delusional about is the Catholic church's systematic repression of anything which threatens its power. It wasn't that long ago that good Catholics weren't allowed to read books that didn't bear the Nil Abstat and the Imprimateur of their bishop. "Da Code" clearly would not have been permitted reading.
Ron Howard would have been burned at the stake by the church not all that long ago. Given the crappy educations most Americans have received, many have no idea how many non-believers were slaughtered at the hands of a the church that once had incredible power in the western world.
In ending, the only people naive enough to believe the Da Vinci Code, belong to churches so who needs a disclaimer???
