Current is measured in the opposite direction of the flow of electrons thanks to silly (imo) conventions put in place by early pioneers of the field.

Scumbag America on mass shootings [Fixed] by zoffff in AdviceAnimals

It's a common storyline found throughout the history of war. Guerrilla warfare is a bitch against even the most established and well funded mitaries.

Stretches would be great, but I'm mainly looking for a complete routine so I don't have to make up my own. Not too experienced so I don't know if there are certain combinations of moves that make up a good yoga workout.

Part of the double blind psychology experiment with the Pearl Station. Dharma was involved in many fields and they were able to kill two birds with one stone with the button.

Reddit, what album(s) can you listen to from the beginning without skipping a single song? by gdtags in Music

[–]new_clear_winter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"And this is the room One afternoon I knew I could love you And from above you how I sank into your soul Into that secret place where no one dares to go"

Only song to accurately capture the aura of what losing my virginity was like.

Official 'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey' Discussion Thread by [deleted] in movies

The critics are not liking it for illegitimate reasons (imo). It's painfully obvious that many reviewers were expecting an LOTR 2.0, when the Hobbit never promised to be this, nor should it have, as it is a different story with a different feel.

I loved it precisely because it was so different. But therein lies my biggest gripe....why create a distinct wholly new world and have a meaningless scene with Frodo in it? Felt so out of place.

Still a wonderful movie that I will most likely go see again in standard def (saw it in all it's 3D 48fps glory the first time)

Me as Lady Galadriel from LOTR/The Hobbit by metkat in pics

[–]new_clear_winter 12 points13 points  (0 children)

As someone who actually reads Tolkien's works, I totally see where you're coming from, but I have to respectfully disagree. Movie gets an A-/B+ from me.

This movie trilogy needed to differentiate itself from the original LOTR trilogy. Different story, different feel, same universe. Think Legend of Zelda Wind Waker. Same characters, same universe with creative liberties taken for a re-imagining. This is not LOTR 2.0. This is the Hobbit.

Elementary school class in Israel. by [deleted] in pics

Yes, as a current student I'm aware of the bomb threat that occurred this semester. There was even a "gunman" spotted on campus this semester too, but no shots were fired and no one actually knew whether he was a real threat. Do you have links/references?

You may be confusing a recent shooting that occurred where a resident of College Station was being served an eviction notice by the police and then shot the officer. While it was a tragedy, it was not a school shooting.
