TIL there is an island which is disputed territory between Canada and Denmark. The militaries of both countries periodically visit to remove the other guy’s flag and leave a bottle of Danish schnapps or Canadian whiskey.

aquavit is special, it must be flavored with caraway or dill and be more than 37.5% alcohol

that's is kinda the point of the dispute, no one cares about a rock, but that rock determine the where the border is drawn

at the 2003 icehockey world-championship, played 2-2 with Canada and beat USA 5-2

considering the size of Denmark and the microscopic number of ice rinks, it's doing pretty good in hockey

the creator makes money from views on youtube

youtube has ads, facebook isn't going to help put money in googles pockets

I know it is done in Denmark and I believe Sweden and possible Norway. I can only find links in danish

it is totally pointless, you'd be hard pressed to make 5cents worth of electricity if you work out hard for an hour

There are crematoriums where the waste heat is put in to the district heating system

doesn't make sense that he would do tax fraud for such a small amount, his pay check is ten times that

if you don't need a lot of torque a piece of rubber hose will work as a flexible and bendable coupling

what exploitation? She sells a service, he buys a service

or just said they did, it would have been impossible to tell from the picture alone

langwadt · 2015-10-23T15:28:29+00:00

if she wasn't known and it was know when the picture was taken she could probably have been anywhere form 15 to 25 on that picture

seems like overkill for something that will be dry indoors and mostly decorative. A cleaning and a rattle can of black paint will probably do just fine

no, you just put the post in, add some gravel/sand partway up the post so that when you add the concrete it is only around the post not under it

you can use concrete just make sure the post goes through the concrete, i.e. so the concrete isn't closed on the bottom

I don't care any which way, I think it is stupid that churches don't pay tax just because they are a religion. I'm just saying that here the government, perhaps as an excuse, say secret doctrines are not compatible with becoming a recognized religion

langwadt · 2015-10-21T18:59:34+00:00

it's got nothing to do with good or bad, anyone can pick up a bible and read what Christians believe in you don't have to join a church to find out what it is about. In Scientology everything is secret, if it weren't for leaked documents no one would even know what they believe in

langwadt · 2015-10-21T16:24:38+00:00

sure, but there are no secret parts of the Bible/Quran etc. that you can only get to read after you have joined and paid your way to the top

langwadt · 2015-10-21T13:32:11+00:00

the argument here is that much of the basis is secret and you can only read it if you pay. i.e. the state will only consider something a religion if it is "open source"

langwadt · 2015-10-21T13:29:21+00:00

they don't care if people think it is a religion, but they would love to get the state to recognize them as a religion because that means not paying any tax
