The Woman with Two Vaginas
There's a bowling ball joke in there somewhere but I'll spare you.
*groan*
Manhole lifts a car on the street
Helicopters thrown as bowling balls??

Clearly, Russian drivers don't have enough to contend with on the road from other drivers. Now it's coming from underground as well. What's next, bowling balls thrown from helicopters?

So the Earth is round?
gong!
it's an oblate spheroid, a rotationally symmetrical ellipsoid
I always thought it was more globe-shaped, like a basketball or a bowling ball, or a globe.
Brian Cox with Simon Pegg demonstrates why atoms are empty
I think we agree that he implies that the outer limit is the electromagnetic force from the nucleus to the electron. But wait... he is pulling a fast on us.
This is a 1/r potential. So it isn't discrete at all. How is it like a box? This new question has answered part of our first question: He says that one end is the electromagnetic force. How can a continuous potential be treated like one that exists over a finite extent?
Or in other words: He says it is a box with well defined edges. But, it is more like valley (think of a bowling ball on a trampoline). A valley is not a box.
MythBusters Cannonball Experiment Gone Wrong Hits Houses/Car
One episode they shot a bowling ball out of a cannon and it bounced up and over the nearby hill at the range. I'm figuring they tried to stop that from happening with the water barrels and like Winstonfield said (oh man, I just threw up in my mouth a little, I agreed with him on something) it probably broke a restraint or something and lifted.
Someone should tell this girl that this can't be done
FYI: This is actually a bowling ball.
Blonde Goes Bowling
There's a reason why grown adults aren't allowed to use the 6lbers.
That being said, I was a rather avid bowler in my late teens and once came close to doing something similar.
For anyone who doesn't know, you're supposed to slide a little bit on your final step as you release the ball. That's why bowling shoes are soled with suede.
In this particular case, on my final step I planted my left foot in what was probably a little spill of soda. My little slide became an abrupt stop and I flopped forward onto the floor, simultaneously launching my bowling ball (a 12lb) virtually straight up. Luckily, I didn't do any damage to either myself or the alley. The ball gently nudged one of the ceiling tiles out of place and then fell to the floor a few feet in front of me.
Also luckily, the owner knew us well enough (we were there every weekend) that he knew we weren't screwing around and that something must have happened.

How would a bowling ball shaped like this behave??
Well if it was shaped like this then it wouldnt be a bowling ball now would it ? If say, you where to use the material and manufacturing process used in making bowling balls, had one made in this manner, then it would be a much heavier version and when rotating have much more momentum. other then that. it'd be the same yet heavier.

TDS: Arizona Shootings Reaction
Palin - Bachman - et al.
I'm trying to avoid the typical back & forth on this thread. So I'll phrase it like this... How is what these guys said any different than what the 'other guy' says (and gets a pass)? Politicians since times ancient have grossly extrapolated the actions/policies of their opponents. Palin's death panel is an exaggeration of the rationed care that IS a part of Obamacare. Similarly, Democrats accuse the GOP of starving people when they want to cut a social program. Bachman wanted people 'armed and dangerous'. Barak Obama wanted people "angry, get in their face, hit back twice as hard, bring a gun". I see no difference. Do I like the overblown rhetoric? No, but it is part and parcel of any vigorous debate.
No normal person takes these statements literally though. And trying to pander to the NOT normal people seems to me an exercise in futility. Moreover, trying to be "PC" using the outliers of society as a standard is an impossible moving target, and rather subject to opinion.
The right-wing elected officials and candidates were talking about armed rebellion if they lose the election
There is no nice way to say this, but you are wrong. They were not, and you know it. There is no GOP candidate who would have survived 5 seconds if they'd been calling for armed rebellion if they lost. That is hyperbole.
I don't get the same sense of desire for outreach/reformation of liberals. I also don't get the sense of compatibility from them.
I put it to you kindly that this opinion is another symptom of perception bias. Would you not agree that from Glenn Beck's perspective his infamous 'chalkboard histories' are an attempt to educate and outreach? And quite frankly, I feel very little sense of 'outreach' or 'education' when liberals call conservatives hateful, angry, evil, nazis, corporate shills, mind numbed robots, neocons, teabaggers, racist, sexist, and bigoted.
I can condemn anything I want because I have free speech. I also think that there's a lot of validity to the idea that our national discourse has been poisoned with over the top rhetoric.
Sure - just be sure to allow that both ways. Criticize conservative pundits all you want. But don't get all testy if conservatives criticize liberal ones. And if you try to pin accessory to murder on conservatives, don't be surprised when they get their back up.
You...increase vitriol
That is because I'm bearding the lion in its metaphorical den, so to speak. The sift is liberally slanted. I'm not. So even when dare to challenge the consensus groupthink - even when done respectfully - I get blowback. I would say that I am incredibly patient, respectful, and moderate in my tone. I rarely (if ever) make things personal. Even when I'm on the receiving end of some rather nasty abuse I tend to keep it civil. I don't apologize for being a rare conservative voice in a chorus of liberals, but that doesn't mean that "I" am responsible for 'increased vitriol'. The vitriol comes when people other than myself. I simply present a different point of view.
I really think that's what is happening in the 'national discourse' too. Two sides collide. They don't like each other. If they dare (DAARE!) to present their perspective, they get jumped on like black on a bowling ball. The media in particular is hypersensitive to this, because it gives them ratings. Politicians love it too, because 'going negative' gets votes.

GET OUT OF HERE, GHOST!
I thought it was great only because by the end of the film you get to watch a "tele"marketer plus a company CEO "shill" duke it out with a bowling ball.
Good times.
