Anything Godspeed You Black Emperor is always heavy on the mind, not depressing though. People take the word out of context.

I think I'll have to add this to my Amazon wish-list.

Any chance of a scan of the advert?

There's no reason science and Christianity can't walk hand in hand. A memorable quote from Socrates comes to mind: "With such signs of forethought and design in living creatures, how can one doubt that they are the works of choice and design?" As we unravel more of the world's mysteries, we are being a given a greater glimpse of the artistry and genius of God. We can observe nature and its workings, its cohesion and efficiency, and we can marvel at God's work. Read this interesting article about Francis S. Collins, the director of the National Human Genome Research Institute and the scientist that cracked the Human Genome. He was an atheist for a long time, but his discoveries have now led him to believe in the existence of God and miracles. Believing in God is not irrational, in fact if anything it the most probable solution. Random chance cannot account for the complex design of DNA. It is statistically and mathematically impossible. In the last 30 years, a number of prominent scientists have attempted to calculate the odds that a free-living, single-celled organism, such as a bacterium, might result by the chance combining of preexistent building blocks. Harold Morowitz calculated the odds as one chance in 10100,000,000,000 (ten to the one hundred billionth power). Sir Fred Hoyle calculated the odds that just the proteins of an amoebae arising by chance as one chance in 1040,000 (ten to the forty thousandth power). The odds calculated by Morowitz and Hoyle are staggering. Think of it this way, the chances of winning the lottery every week of your life from the age of 18 to 99 are better than the odds of a single-celled organism being formed by random chance. The probability of spontaneous generation is about the same as the probability that a tornado sweeping through a junkyard could assemble a 747 from the contents therein. It is impossible. The evidence all points to the unavoidable conclusion that we not the product of chance, but the result of intelligent design.

Think about it.

I disagree. Combat was never one of Prime's strong points. The harder enemies are more of a chore to defeat than anything

iQue? It wasn't even designed for our market. I don't see how you could call it a disappointment.

In a Silent Way It's 1969. Miles Davis assembles an excellent band including two electric pianists, an organist and John McLaughlin on electric guitar. With the editing and arrangement of producer Teo Macero, Miles' first true jazz fusion record is born. It's 38 minutes of mellow perfection: two tracks, each just shy of twenty minutes. Like all the best jazz, it comes alive at night, and on cool summer evenings. Davis gives us a glimpse of heaven, and it truly is bliss.

If you haven't had a drink for ages, water is obviously your best option. You people who drink nothing but carbonated drinks scare me. I'll have a can of Coke or something once or twice a month max. Water and pure fruit juices are where it's at.

I think I'll stick to the original. This new version sounds like a bad April Fool joke.

Everyone nitpicking over rankings and percentages, remember: it's a matter of opinion. You don't like it, go write your own damn magazine. Besides, we should all know Super Monkey Ball is a better game than Metroid Prime. It's not only common knowledge, but scientific fact. And it's just not the done thing to argue with science.

The lips definitely seem feminine.

Mario 2 was never really mario at all

I assumed this was common knowledge among Nintendo fans. -
I can make a nice omelette. That's about it, unfortunately. Although I'm hoping to learn how to cook a variety of meals before I go to uni.

I couldn't agree more. I also find it very frustrating when people speak of five or ten year sentences as if they are nothing. Spending several years isolated from the world is not a light punishment.

I'd go back to Jerusalam in the year zero and chill out with Jesus.

You're mistaken. I'm a comprehensive boy through and through.

I love everyone. Especially you.

I and my girlfriend have been together for nearly three months now. She's a brunette, with a dark complexion, mellowed slighly by her very pale blue eyes. She's quite small, so when consider that I am around about six foot, there's quite a height difference; but that doesn't bother me. Not to sound clichéd, but she really is the prettiest thing I've ever laid my eyes upon. I don't find myself counting the days we've been together. It hardly crosses my mind. I've been in two relationships before, but this one just seems like something much more special. I don't ever doubt my love for her, nor do I ever doubt that she loves me to the same extent. I predict we'll be together a long time. I'd even go as far to say that I'd be happy to spend the rest of my life with her. Obviously one can't be certain what the future holds, but such an outcome wouldn't surprise me, I'll put it that way.

Nice, very nice. Thanks for the heads up.

I detect a very rose-tinted view of nationalisation. Look at BT, for example. Before it was privatised, you'd wait months just for a telephone line. Competition is healthy, both for the consumer and for the economy. If it wasn't for all the privatisation during the 1980s, the UK would not have the stable and growing economy that you now see. The fact that there has been cross-party consensus on the subject since Labour abandoned Clause IV shows that nationalisation is an old and exhausted concept. Only the most hardened socialists and deluded Old Labour supporters stand by it.

I think I need to start going on morning jogs.

If you give your hair a thorough wash with a good shampoo, there's no reason you shouldn't go a day without washing it. My hair is a moderate length I suppose; just about down to my collar. I like it, as does my girlfriend (who has beautiful dark flowing hair herself), so I'm content.

He'd previously helped turn the fortunes of Vh1 around, so Nintendo brought him in for a similar purpose.

Wise words.
