Sigur Rös - Hopípolla + bloody nose

StukaFox says...

The first time I flew to Iceland on the aptly-named Iceland Air, the "entertainment" consisted of the entire catalog of Sigur Ros and Bjork. The seat-back screens in the cheap seats had a list of movies that an old UHF channel would have turned its nose up at, and an endless loop of four commercials for wonderful Iceland -- in Icelandic -- that you couldn't turn off. They also insisted in asking people to pay in isk for Icelandic food, which was both a novelty, an annoyance and a source of nausea all in one.
That said, it was better than Air France by a long shot.

Air France Plane w.228 Passengers Disappears Over Atlantic

ReverendTed says...

Reading the transcript of the cockpit voice recorder for AF447 might be enough to put you off flying for a while.
The inexperienced co-pilot inadvertently did exactly what he needed to do to drop the A330 into the ocean. The senior pilot and co-pilot could have easily saved the plane but a lack of effective communication kept them from realizing what was happening until it was too late.

Bill Nye Realizes He Is Talking To A Moron

dannym3141:

Claiming that people should stop burning fossil fuels would HEAVILY dent the income of just about every country because of how much tax they can charge from it. Britain's economy is almost based on fossil fuel tax. How can you possibly argue that they are a politically influenced source over fossil fuel use when they criticise such a money earner?


Politics aside, fossil fuels remain the cheapest, most abundant source of energy, and new supplies of it are being discovered all the time. I never said people should stop burning them.

I hesitate to even mention that "science" as a global community is above reproach in ways that hardly anything else can be due to the method of a scientist. If you are not performing science for truth and discovery, you are not a scientist, so you're not part of the community anymore. That's why it's above reproach. I'm sure you'll argue with me about that, but i know that you'd argue about the time of day if you were proven to be wrong.

I'm not arguing, but I am astonished you would believe scientists are above politics (and reproach), not because the scientific method is flawed, but because scientists are fallible humans with their own beliefs and interests. As W. Pennypacker said in so many words, governments reward scientists which confirm a pre-determined outcome (like secondhand smoke killing 100 billion people a year). Junk science is real; it may not be everywhere, but it's out there. And not just "the oil companies" which have "scientitians" in their corner.

Another thing, gang. Over the last few years, global warming hysteria has been relentless. It's the alarmists who declared, "The debate is over." There was even one smug a-hole who compared "climate deniers" to Holocaust deniers. Classy! There was the faked data scandal. These are not the actions of scientists confident in their conclusions. Yet the lazy media continues to back the alarmists without question.

Why is the quote not working? It looks fine in preview.


Sometimes Siftbot is smoking teh crack.

Try editing it then saving, sometimes goes away on it's own.

The reason the text appears "Air France A380" is probably because at the time of the video, they were the new-new thing, and an Air France A380 was sitting at the gates in the background as the 747 turns at 0:43. The video slows down too, to give a long look. Kind of a "OOO OOO LOOK LOOK!!!" moment.

Air France Plane w.228 Passengers Disappears Over Atlantic

relax. it's a viral for Lost, season 6

I'm torn between "too soon" and "too funny"

I'm torn between "damn you beat me to it!" and "that so could have been my comment".
No clue what I'm talking about here, but surely modern airplanes would carry some global positioning system that would allow them to be trackable by satellite? Assuming no electrical malfunction, I can't understand why it'd be difficult to position them using that.



Not to be morbid, but I don't think GPS works at the bottom of the Atlantic ocean.

Rachel Maddow: Guantanamo Times 60?

radx says...

As if war crimes of powerful and/or victorious nations are suddently going to be an issue. Noone would snatch Dick Cheney off an Air France jet. You might become a persona non grata, but that's it.

You're bound for some time in the joint if you rob a bank, but some ethnic cleansing, maybe a little genocide ... or how about a war of aggression? Noone's going to hold that against you, if you come out on top. It's just politics.
