I've never seen the appeal of running but just had a sudden urge to start today. Tomorrow I'm gonna start running around clissold park... in air max 1s. If its fun, I'll order some asics.

Cycling 20 miles a day for work but just feel I could do with a proper workout. Cant afford climbing membership at the moment either.

Correction: No confirmed meltdown. Bad sources/translation.

Basically, theres radiation spewing out of *something... *Could be lots of things, not necasarily a meltdown or anything nearly as dramatic.

The thing with Cesium is that when it comes in to contact with water, terrible things happen. Hence why special coolant is needed. If the cooling system isn't working right, things get hot and you get steam explosions. Obviously things blowing-up in neuclear power stations is never a good thing.

My thoughts are with every-one affected by the tsunami.

EDIT: No meltdown... glad I was wrong.

"...the fuck is this?"

Oof. He's clearly having a wobbler.

Sorry for your loss, that was really moving.

i believe that 'angels do god's work' and are among us..

Why?

Not trying to be picky, but by term do you mean spirituality or science? I think you mean spirituality, if so I think there is something to that.

Personally I think a lot of the 'science' that is banned around at the moment, is very similar to religion. Climate Change / Environmentalism is, imo, one of the best eg.s

The very debate is polarised between believers and non-believers. While I aways thought that scientists didn't believe in anything.

By this I don't mean that CC is made up, just that it seems that for a huge number of people out there it fills a very similar role. Especially when it comes to traditional style good Vs. evil. Bicycles = morally good, 4x4's = morally bad.

Yes, I was referring to the term "spirituality". As for science and climate change... thats a can of worms that deserves its own thread.

Regarding scientists not believing in anything... that's a tad strong. I think they believe in the pursuit of understanding, which is where I align my own 'beliefs'.

House music is a spiritual thing. It's a body thing. It's a soul thing.

Well put. I think one can have a similar connection with the world around them in general. Not to sound like a total stoner, but I think an atheist can find some sort of spiritual connection with the interconnectedness of everything.

I think you can find spirituality in science... Not in a creepy "worship the numbers" way, just, you know, appreciate the awesomeness of the universe way.

I'm using the term extremely loosely here, mind.

There's religion and there's spirituality. You can be a total atheist but be very spiritual about the universe instead of some fairy tale that was invented thousands of years ago and is still causing people to kill each other.

The thing is though, if it wasn't religion being an excuse for small-mindedness and conflict, it would be something else. Humans are very good at finding reasons to hate other groups of humans; be it religion, race, political persuasion or what football team you support, there's always the "other".

Organised religion has a very clever design of being totally inward and closed, but under the disguise as the opposite. By its very nature, one can not argue, reason, question or attempt to prove otherwise its logic. It basically functions as the grey area where morality and idealism meets the 'outside' world - a kind of pseudo-logic that stands-in for an actual attempt at understanding the world.

Bit of a stream of consciousness there...

Notting Hill Arts Club on a thursday night. Wobble.

Not a meme but I was just watching the live strem on the nasa site and it was a bit dull. Some-one had to do it...

How small is that cat!?
