  1. I was talking to my esteemed friend about this today. Hopefully CERN is going to give us a bit more detail about what Gravitons actually are and we can see if super string theory and M-Theory are correct in any way (the idea that between 12 and 15 other dimensions are wrapped up and hidden within the particles of this universe)
  2. short and to the point: an ipad cannot teach a child. no piece of technology can take the place of actual learning in a classroom. Yes there are a minority of very bright students who can work independently on these things, learn and absorb information. They are a tiny minority. Thousands of years of teaching and learning have shown us that children do not learn by themselves, every skill must be taught and shown (granted with very few exceptions) and while as adults we can learn and grasp new skills quickly and find the relative resources on help us online, children can not. they are developing, things take them longer, and autonomous teaching is one of the worst ideas i have even heard. I teach 11 to 16 year olds.
  3. Well, there is a real honest to goodness company called Cyberdyne Systems, and there's a Skynet. It's only a matter of time... But seriously? who names their company after a fictional company which creates robots that destroy humanity? that's just asking for it in my opinion.
  4. Thorn speaks with wisdom. give him time and be his friend. you might be the only 'out' friend he has. i sort of doubt that you guys will get to be cutsy in love, but that may not be a bad thing. it's nice to have a friend keep your options open bub, don't pass up the right guy when he comes your way.
  5. i am the proud owner of an entire freezer full of cake calamari tonight, must make batter.
  6. you are so impatient *pets Vv*
  7. hey thanks! Glad you like the format. You get a chapter every day, so keep coming back. and yeah, i would love to see a movie of this too, it would have an excellent soundtrack!
  8. yeah, i know *ears down* you know i don't re-read stuff before i post... i'm weird. also, i have no idea why Bay starting talking the the present tense. that was not my fault.and i like Bay's gold running shirt.
  9. that rocks (literally) Maybe some of the other planets and planetoids are the same? gravity on earth is even, and surely gravity isn't just affected by mass. they think the liquid core has something to do with magnetism, maybe the two are linked?
  10. he's really straight babes
  11. Zupan is totally unfiltered! i love it
  12. too many cake pops..... i don't wanna go back in my kitchen. it's full of spheres!!!
  13. I spent Monday holed up in the flat, trying not the think of anything at all. I caught up on a few games, steered clear of all my internet-based gamer-friends who would want to know why I had been so absent of late, and generally moped about like most eighteen year old boys di from time to time. Which meant that Tuesday morning I woke up unspeakably early with a feeling in my mouth like a dead rat and decided to kill my gloom with a shower, incorporating a little fantasy time for my crotch, and
  14. I'm so glad you are enjoying the format. i haven't done anything like this is a long long time.I like that you agree with Bay, and i don't like meddlers either.
  15. thanks darling. Bay is a complex little guy xx
  16. you about hit the nail on the head there
  17. unfortunately there are people in this world worse than Jim-Boy...
  18. he gets better eventually.
  19. I love and hate that PC is listed as a console.
  20. When you’re thirteen, the world is your oyster, or at least that’s how it seems. I was officially a teenager, and I had been a nice enough kid that I was given relative freedom to go with my age, and my curfew wasn’t until ten. There was a group of us, high achievers with autonomy, who hung around in the early evenings at skate parks or scraps of woodland, in town if it was summer and the shops were open, mucking around, playing games and generally being kids. At secondary school I had discover
  21. I wrote a story that featured a lot of food. Finding Atlantis has lots of food. People tell me that the descriptions make them hungry.
  22. I think you should write about food for a living.... i'm hungry again.
  23. NWAH!!!!! they are so cute!!!!
  24. it's a good question. Quadraplegics have limited use in their lims. there is sliding scale of how much range they have. Zupan is a 3.5, which means he can use his upper arms well, and can open rather than close his hands. he has no useful movement in the legs. some quads can use two fingers on one hands really well, but their other arm is rubbish. it's different for everyone.Until i met a guy who was quad, i had no idea either. Also, Zupan is supposed to seem like a dick right now.
  25. I will always blames you TW, it's so easy *hug* I love wild guesses....
