I can't for the life of me remember the title and it isn't that old. A boy survives a storm at sea and all his classmates die, he returns to his hometown and everyone hates him for being the sole survivor. Is this all a dream?

Inspired by the outpouring of lust in the Mary Ann or Ginger thread, I thought it would be appropriate to expand the discussion to other elders who've continued to kept it 100 in their twilight years. Which gran[pas/mas] really do it for you?

there are probably better places for such topic but still, i value watmm's opinion and would like to hear about your smartphone experiences and suggestions. so far i've only been reading about samsung galaxy s3 and it looks pretty good on paper feature and spec wise, does anyone here have it ? what are the similar alternatives ? the features that are important to me: *not being an apple product *good audio playback sound quality (3.5 mm minijack is a must, i'm not sure if most of the current ones have it ) *all the possible connectivity, hdmi, usb, wired lan, wifi, blueteeth, via as few adapters as possible *comfortable internets *customization and flexibili…

I can't say I promise to be around forever, or long, but seeing the CW news and coming back to watmm after many years away is a nice trip of nostalgia for me. I joined in 2001, abouts, when watmm launched from being joyrex.com. I'm sure some of the old fogeys will remember me. Pardon the self indulgence. What's the latest with the old crew? I see delet and joyrex here obviously. What of McGriff? Essines? Sinicalypse? Theocide? Wisp? ChenGod? Thanksomuch? Echidna? MCSpatula? Quantazelle? That one guy with the beard from Argentina? I'm forgetting a lot. I apologize. I thought I saw something about the stolen DAT music getting posted? Maybe Richard hasn't release…

http://youtu.be/idb-YlShggw Are you following this story? If you're in the U.S., have you seen any coverage of it on TV (I've seen nothing on AJAM or CNN)? There are a lot of videos about this... standoff(?) on YouTube -- share any other interesting ones you come across. From the LATimes: "LAS VEGAS – Wielding signs and slogans, several hundred demonstrators rallied Monday to support beleaguered cattle rancher Cliven Bundy and his family in a turf battle against the federal government. They had responded to an alert promising a new skirmish: “Range War begins at the Bundy ranch at 9:30 a.m. We’re going to get the job done!” Bundy is battling with federal of…

When a horse gets an erection does the crew have to wait until it goes away or does it get removed in post production? Or are only mares used? Couldn't really find info via Google.

Here's a moving talk by Lawrence Lessig about kickstarting the one super pac to buy the power the lock money out of politics: All the more relevant given last weeks supreme court decision about campaign finance. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/04/04/john-roberts-campaign-finance_n_5086235.html The legalese is a bit above my grasp, but some of you might have some strong opinion about last weeks ruling. Anywho, Lawrence's talk does present a bit of hope, I guess. What do you think?

Hi there! i'm currently finishing my studies (yay!) of Business Management. For my final year dissertation, I chose a music-realted topic. So I have a questionnaire here, and I would like you guys to answer it. It's completely anonymous and the estimated time of answer is approximately between 5 and 10 minutes... That would really help me out. Thanks in advance! Here is the link : https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1QV4ePqOpOkyvxHKrE5fg20q-UD-4WSQEL_m9bP86aa4/viewform

[youtubehd]m3x3TMdkGdQ[/youtubehd] [youtubehd]CfqO1U6lfDs[/youtubehd] I'm fairly well read when it comes to entomopathogenic fungi (the infamous Cordyceps caterpillar fungus for example) and their ability to warp behavior in a number of insects like spiders, ants, crickets, etc.. I can't help but wonder how many parasitic species there actually are in the world. Is it possible that the behavior of many humans is less in their control than we think?

Rush Limbaugh 1 2 3

I was sitting in my car at the library today when a guy in his mini-van parked next to me with his window cracked. Through his window he had a radio show playing which was audible and caught my attention. After listening and peeking at him, the guy had his jaw slack and seemed to have a visible interest in the radio show, almost like he was about to fist pump. I did some sleuthing and discovered it was Rush Limbaugh's radio show. I had heard his name on television before, but was not familiar with who he is or what he does. Needless to say I spent the next 3 hours listening to his show. What I heard absolutely blew my mind. Please tell me this scumbag is not as influent…

hey everyone, i guess this applies to all music genres, but i'm trying to figure out the purpose of identity mainly in electronic music since it feels that sometimes the distance between the artist and the listener is further than other genres (automations, complexity in production, expression through machinery/computers, internet & avatars, alienating or non-natural sounds, experimentation). i've been wondering for quite a while, what makes an artist more or less interesting, besides their music as an audio experience? how important is the visual factor (music videos, artwork, press photos, concerts etc.), or the mystery factor? why do some musicians choos…
