Massive Slab of Concrete Falls on Parked Bus and Crushes It

jqpublick says...

It might have helped if the boarder could you know, actually ride a skateboard. And someone hadn't made what sounds like an 'okay, now' call over a bullhorn *just* before the perfectly positioned concrete slab fell.

What Happens When You Crack an Egg Underwater

jqpublick says...

Eggshells are permeable to admit air; the egg will die of oxygen starvation quite quickly. If that's any help.

I imagine that's the same as it'd look in space.
Triggers an eerie hypothetical in my mind. If you just dropped eggs into the ocean (somewhere warm enough), when the baby chick started to peck its way out of the shell it'd drown itself. Poor thing.

@lucky760
Chick incubation requires about 100°F, so I doubt anywhere is warm enough. I was a Navy snipe, and the highest injection temperatures I ever saw for our main condenser was about 86°F. However, if you just wait a few more years...

True, but 1) I did say it was a hypothetical (focused around what would happen to the chick more than if it could actually hatch), and 2) temperatures reach well into hundreds of degrees Fahrenheit near hydrothermal vents.
That's hot enough for the spawning and evolution of strange new life forms that will literally never see the light of day. Just don't let the egg get too close or it'll boil.

RAGE in Canada's House of Commons

jqpublick says...

Being a Canadian, I stand 100% behind her. We don't know for sure who made these calls (choke, cough cough, hack hack) but when we do find out (at least one riding is now going to have a re-election due to these calls) and when enough of the affected ridings get their fair shots at casting their votes, I for one hope the guilty parties go to jail for a long long time.

I live in one of the ridings that got these calls, and both my roommate and I received calls telling us to go to another polling station. I called Elections Canada and was informed that they do not make phone calls but that they had received an unusual number of complaints.

Thanks very much, oritteropo. Will do!
>> ^oritteropo:

You're actually off to a pretty good start with the ones you've posted so far.
The 25 you need for bronze always seems like it takes forever, but that gives you the ability to update thumbnails. There is a Star Powers list linked from the FAQ, which I'm sure you've seen
Leave me a profile message if you need a thumbnail updated before you get Bronze... yt ones get done automatically, but vimeo doesn't.

I'll just start sifting more videos, then. Thanks, oritteropo. >> ^oritteropo:
Looks OK to me.
To fix thumbs you must sift more videos, or alternatively ask for assistance from those who have (or the site admins).
In reply to this comment by jqpublick:
Wow, just noticed that the thumb is broken. Anyone know how I can fix that?
