If you are a Platinum Club member, and have a backlog of $1.99 items older than 60 days in your wishlist, put any 4 of them in your shopping cart, and look in your shopping cart (don't check out first). The 50% off sale apparently works on them, too.
omg, i cleared out 3 file cabinet drawers of old dwgs and schematics from 1950s and 60s. it's so exhausting, who'd a thunk it.
and i'm starting to stress about the bus stop. sidewalk is all snowed, climbing up is at least 3 ft boulders left by the plows. it's a high traffic street with no street shoulder to stand. is there a real chance i could be killed or am i stressing for nothing?
i'm actually considering doing my next book cover with DS4 and Genni. Even though i have no clue how to render for print with DS. and i only know how to use the one uber lightset with the 4x preset. maybe just the back cover. i'm sort a deliriously tired right now.
Morning. Hot here under a big blue sky streaked grey, from smoke I guess :)
Surely the traffic won't be travelling too fast on ice? *hugs*

Good morning! :)
Don't catch fire...! :bug: :ahhh:
Dark and gloomy here. Just waiting on the snow to come down tonight.

This _is_ a street in the US she'll be standing on, Ps1... ;-). Hope you remembered your legwarmers Misty! (^_^)/... *sends some 33degC in your direction <(~_~)>...*

*waves* Ok where we are :)
Oh noes, time to build a roaring fire :)

I forgot :)
Welcome, hopes you had a great day :)

If she lives in New England, they will be! :shut: Idiots. Lots of them!

Well, not great, but not one of my worse days, either. Woke up late. Didn't get a hell of a lot done. Diane's on the way home. I shoveled some more today, got rid of a big chunk of snow in the driveway. I now remember why I didn't want to shovel any more snow. I ache and I'm beat. I'm cooking supper, so I have to keep an eye on it. She'll be home any minute. Probably won't be back until later tonight.

ANY part of the US has those idiots on ice.. they are every where.. (they come out when it rains too...)
And now...Idiots On Ice!
Those all look rather painful! The second one looks like she can fly and he's the rudder...look at the way he's grasping his pants, like pulling them upward like that will lift them out of the dive! :shut:
Dana
Yes that's me on ice - and roller - skates :lol:
thought this pic of a black hole is interesting cos its not black :)

More of a sky diving move :)
It's young... it'll grow into it's blackness, a bit like a baby Goth ;-).
..love the second one. That's exactly the way I feel.
...happy fifty ninth trip around the sun (just watch out for those passing space rocks half the size the size of a football pitch).
BTW speaking of space rocks, those of you in Australia and New Zealand will have a he best "seats" (need a small telescope or binoculars) to see Asteroid 2012 DA 14 make it's closest approach to earth (nearly 17,000 miles - within the "Geosynchronous belt" where many of our GPS and communications satellites are)
Look up towards the Southern Cross at around 4:00 - 4:30 AM local time.
Of course the Big News here in the states is the arrival of the crippled Carnival Cruise ship arriving in Mobile Alabama. On the Fox news site on the top of the page above the story about the asteroid there is a clickable banner that takes you to an "exclusive live video feed" where you can watch every moment of the ship slowly being towed into harbour at slower than a snail's pace.
...hmm, almost makes watching the paint dry or counting the stucco sound more entertaining.
...The Cosmic Snooker Complaint Thread.
...hey, that fourth one sort of looks like our local village idiot on ice back during the Lillehammer Olympics
...used to work at the rink where she practised.
...so much talent, so little brain.
It was not yet a black hole at the time this light was sent out, it was the early stages of the formation of a black hole...or so they think. The term "black hole" is somewhat of a misnomer. Firstly, it is not a hole. It is a super-massive object with such gravity that nothing can escape it, not even light. That's why they call it black. Actually, they do often have "jets" at the polar regions that spew out X-Rays or other rays...which in fact are actually part of the light spectrum. So I think it's better to say that not even visible light can escape. Or maybe that light can't escape except where it is actually pushing it outward at extreme speeds and force (the jets). But, there's still a lot we don't know and as these things are theories until they can be proven, sometimes theories evolve or are discarded. Scientists are always discovering things that throw what they "knew" into disarray and question. It's the nature of scientific discovery. The more we know, the more we realize that we don't know much. :-P

DanaI do not mean anything by this but some of your info is just a tad off. All Black holes are not as far as science knows super-massive. They are super dense. They do know of super-massive ones like at the center of galaxies and others that can only be seen when they pass in front of other stars, the focal distortion the only hint they are there but still seen as existing. The objects that eject matter from the poles are called Quasars, but only if the matter ejected is of the visible spectrum, many eject only in the x-ray or radio spectrum as you have said. I believe that any object that ejects matter of any spectrum are not Black Holes but a different form of object all together. And as you said all of this is just speculation. None of it has been proven, I doubt any of it will be proven during our lifetimes.
BUt it is soooo pretty :)
Kind of extending visible light combining optical, X-Ray and Radio data to produce the image, looking for all the world like the spectacular and mind blowing colours of a coral reef.
