As I said in my posts on last page that not including China & India screams that it isn't about climate change, but about monetary gain and power.

Children sue states now, thanks to the UN! This is a clown world. They sue countries like ours, because we have free media and "niiice politicians".

 

How about they sue the country that has the highest emissions per capita (aka Qatar)? They have ski resorts in the desert!  :banghead:

And refrigirated beaches! https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-1094797/Worlds-refrigerated-BEACH-built-luxury-hotel-Dubai.html

Don't forget Qatar and their ski resorts!!!

 

 

I can't believe that this guy...

... defended the world cup in Qatar (with their refrigirated stadiums)

Yeah, that's why today's college kids (particularly in sociology) and their "safe spaces" sound like loonies. They don't know reality, they don't care about reality. The nice rhetoric and looking good is all that matters. :laugh:

Of course they don't. They think employers will accommodate them. :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

Just watched the concert/dance recital that was Fenty X Savage. My biggest concern is this. If you can't see half the outfits in the amazon prime special due to lack of lighting how much could anyone in the live audience actually see? Oh, and more screen time for the actual lingerie please 2 second snippets doesn't do it for me. The only memorable outfit was Bella Hadid's and that was more because she kinda did this strange weird grope/rub of her crotch that was cringy.

Hmmm

sounds like Riri got the same producer and editor of the VSFS. 

Note: I’ve not seen the show yet.

no... no... The VSFS is like a fashion show on crack. It's messy, it's sloppy and it's not spectacular but it's still a "fashion show". This was legit a concert/dance recital with a few girls walking around in lingerie and no focus.

Ahhh Gotcha 👍🏻

And this is why Ireland is the best island North of France :Angel:

Land of the earthquakes at it again

Oh no! I hope that they don’t destroy too much.

Nah, it didn't. It has to be a real big earthquake to cause actual destruction here. This was "only" magnitude 6 and very short. Also quite deep.

But it was quite the movement anyway.

Sounds to me it’s land surfing. :yes:

Super interesting

Astrophysicists: gamma-ray jets exceed the speed of light

 

Scientists find that bursts of gamma rays may exceed the speed of light and cause time-reversibility.

 

Paul Ratner 25 September, 2019

  • Astrophysicists propose that gamma-ray bursts may exceed the speed of light.
  • The superluminal jets may also be responsible for time-reversibility.
  • The finding doesn't go against Einstein's theory because this effect happens in the jet medium not a vacuum.

According to Einstein's theory of general relativity, nothing can travel faster than the speed of light in a vacuum. Yet in space many strange things happen, including a new proposal by two astrophysicists that blasts creating bursts of gamma rays may be able to speed up faster than light, going superluminal.

 

Yet, this research by the astrophysicists Jon Hakkila of the College of Charleston and Robert Nemiroff of the Michigan Technological University is not going against Einstein's theory. What the scientists found is that while these bursts surpass the speed of light in surrounding gas clouds, that only happens in the jet mediums, not in a vacuum.

 

The astrophysicists also think that these superluminal jets can create the time-reversibility that can be observed in gamma-ray burst light curves.

 

Jon Hakkila likens what they found to skipping stones across the pond. If someone was to throw such a stone into the water towards you, the stone would go through the air in between hops faster than the waves that it causes are moving through the water. As it gets closer, you will see the waves that are produced by each skip in reverse order. The most recently created ones will get to you first and those from the early skips along the water would come last.

 

"Standard gamma-ray burst models have neglected time-reversible light curve properties," Hakkila explained. "Superluminal jet motion accounts for these properties while retaining a great many standard model features."

 

Check out the new paper here, published in The Astrophysical Journal.
