The DSe hybrid is a brand new 42 foot boat promising "green cruising". What could go wrong building buying a $600,000 dollar boat from a startup company promising a miraculous new product? Here’s our top ten reasons you might want to wait for reviews before rushing out to buy one.

High Cost
	The introductory price of a DSe Hybrid 12m is US$600,000. Comparably equipped conventional powerboats run about $250,000 less. During a recession very few will have the cash to spend on essentially experimental technologies like this. Retard Factor:	1

Questionable Durability
	The ocean is one of the harshest environments on earth, with constant exposure to sun and saltwater. On ships solid metal can rust in a year, let alone delicate panels that should not be walked on. These unproven panels will have a difficult time surviving more than a few years under these conditions. Retard Factor:	2

Toxic Batteries
	All batteries are toxic to make, dispose of, have short life spans and can even been deadly when exposed to water. They contain toxic ingredients that show evidence of bio accumulating in the food chain (including in plants), which means that concentrations can rapidly become relatively high in organisms high in the food chain. Retard Factor:	3

Low Battery Capacity
	The batteries provide only two hours of power and under electric power can generate speeds adequate for harbor cruising (about 6 miles per hour). Which is great if you want a $600,000 dollar boat capable of only a few laps in the harbor. Retard Factor:	4

Unable to Position Solar Cells
	Non-adjustable solar panels can only harvest about 50 percent of the available sunlight due to angles and shadows from the ship itself. The catch is that the mechanisms required to adjust the panels to face the sun would break down in the harsh nautical environment. Retard Factor:	5

Minimal Deck Space
	With virtually all of the upper deck devoted to solar panels the boat has very little space available. The delicate panels should not be stepped on and even though the power needs are probably several times the square footage used it leaves very little room for maneuvering on deck. Retard Factor:	6

It’s a Catameran
	Catamarans have some advantages like resistance to capsizing, spacious widths and speed advantages although the vast majority of boats are mono hull or single hulled. Here are some of the biggest disadvantages to a catameran: Cost to park: harbors are set up to accommodate narrower single hulled ships and a catamaran can cost double the typical $400 a month in slip fees. Less maneuverable: Mono hulls are the choice whenever close-quarters maneuvering is required. A fin keel mono hull can pivot on its keel allowing for a tight turning radius and excellent maneuverability. Cats, without the keel, must turn through the water and have a much wider turning radius. Motion Sickness: Contrary to mono hulls which have a ballasted keel, catamarans rely only on form stability, which may lead to motion discomfort and more seasickness in light wind conditions. Retard Factor:	7

Bleeding Edge Technology
	All of the estimates are projected, the technology is unproven and the startup company producing it doesn’t even list an actual mailing address. Pictured is the prototype built out of wood 2×4s. Retard Factor:	8

Reduced Visibility
	Visibility will be impaired between glare from the panels, the wind turbines and solar panels sticking out above the cockpit. Small boats rely on line of sight navigation so this reduced visibility could easily result in a boating accident. Retard Factor:	9

Questionable Environmental Return
	Face it people are buying this boat to save the planet and this boat may not do that. The life span of the solar panels and batteries, their real-world effectiveness, and construction of toxic batteries give this boat an incomplete grade at best. At worst the boats are unusable and are toxic dumps in just a few years. Retard Factor:	10

The Last Winter is a cautionary tale about the dangers of drilling in ANWAR. No not global warming, or oil spills but a dangerous and mysterious disease called TLW Disease. It can cause airplanes to crash, ghost dinosaur attacks, homicide, suicide and will basically bring about the end of the world.

Take heed the 2006 blockbuster film which grossed just over $33,190 dollars illustrates the catastrophic perils involved with drilling in ANWAR.

TLW Disease Causes Fatal Nose-Bleeds

The Last WInter or TLW Disease can cause uncontrolled nose bleeds for some unknown reason. Our e-mail impaired Elliot Jenkins ignores uncontrolled nose bleeds early on in the movie only to lock the door and go to sleep without seeking medical attention. Retard Survival Tip: Just because this movie is about drilling doesn’t give you an excuse to go picking your nose. Remember it’s not just gross it’s potentially fatal.

A Trailer for the sort of possible future documentary / Horror movie ‘The Last Winter’

Using scientific methodology we have taken the most attractive celeberities infected with STD’s and determined which are the most attractive. Each subject was given a total score or DRrf or Disease Risk Reward Factor taking account for physical appearance, wealth, and disease severity…

DRrf or Disease Risk Reward Factor aka (STD Ranking) calculated where:

*Wealth in Millions (US Dollar)

If left unchecked this promiscuous vixens aren’t just a threat to Hollywood - they are a threat to the general public. If we can’t control these celebrities the entire world will be infected with STD’s at least three months before the planet melts and we die from global warming. These worst case computer models show just how real the threat to the country is:

This article takes an in-depth look at the biggest controversy to come out of Beijing - the controversy surrounding the Chinese Gymnasts. Read along as together we thoroughly research the most likely explanations for this underage controversy.

1	Midgets Through a carefully controlled selective breeding program and a large population pool of over a billion the Chinese have bred a small colony of athletic midgets able to compete at olympic levels into much older ages than their "normal-heighted" competitors. Human rights groups and Olympic Committees would go ballistic if the existence of this secret project (code named mini-Maos) were to ever become public.
2	Genetic Engineering The Chinese have jumped with both feet into the genetic cloning pool by creating genetic ‘factories’. By combining genes from past winning athletes, and outright cloning the Chinese have created a super-breed of Chinese that will first win Olympic medals but that is just for starters. With these new super-Chinese imagine factory workers who can work 24 hours a day, or soldiers - these gold medals are simply the first step in world domination.
3	Asian Schoolgirl Culture These diminutive acrobats actually much older than they appear. By a combination of a naturally young appearance, plastic surgery and oil of olay has given them the appearance of being 13-14 year olds. The question why is easily answered by asian culture where young girls are considered the model of sexiness. At least 73% of Japanese porn includes schoolgirl references (according to my own research).
4	Suspended Animation Chronologically the athletes are sixteen years old, but they have been cryogenically frozen for several years in a daring Chinese project to capture Olympic Gold. The small team of premiere athletes was frozen after the last Olympics only to be thawed out and revived for the next games. Granted not all of them will survive but using this method the Chinese could easily dominate the games for a hundred years.
5	No Child Labor Laws In countries like China and India where people start work before they are thirteen, these lucky kids are at least well cared for. If we keep pushing these poor little girls will be back on the assembly line making Nike shoes and not jumping around in them. In Chinese years these girls are old enough to work. Children are born at one not zero like in the rest of the world.
6	Foot/Body Binding The Chinese have been taping women’s feet for centuries to stunt the growth of their feet. Sadly the practice is apparently still in use and the girls have been undergoing full body wraps to maintain their tiny figures into their late 20s.
7	They’re Men Anyone who’s ever been on drunken bar-girl binge in Thailand can attest to the fact that it’s easy to mistake things when shopping and can wind up with more than you bargained for. Ladyboys aren’t just for Thailand bars anymore, they provided just the extra muscle to push China over the top of the gold medal race.
8	Faked Being Younger Anyone who has ever seen a little leaguer with a full mustache before has seen older girls cheating to be younger. The Chinese athletes are not guilty of any cheating now, their young appearance and in some cases paperwork that shows a younger age was for getting into previous competitions like the junior olympics. They aren’t cheating now, but they were a few years ago, and now they’re past is catching up to them.
9	Anti-Growth Hormones Like the little trees at Disneyland these tiny athletes are products of science. With designer growth hormones available for years the Chinese have pioneered the science human anti-growth hormones. By taking these hormones athletes in sports like gymnastics can maintain their small figures well into their thirties providing a huge edge in competition.
10	Robots Who believes Chinese paperwork anyway, so who’s to say (or Chinese president hu - pronounced ‘who’) that these are even human beings. With Chinese stealing technology and copying it from around the world it’s very possible the Chinese have created a new breed of robot capable of dominance with an eye towards world domination and possibly inspired by Battlestar Galactica. (see previous theory on Genetic Engineering) We may soon be repeatedly bowing down to a Chinese robot who doesn’t need to eat, sleep and won’t be tainted by western media influences.

China country creates knock-offs for a living, so the fact that they produced passports that showed the correct ages should do nothing to settle the accusation that the athletes are underage.

Judge for yourself does this girl look 16 to you?

I’m not sure about her age, but I am pretty sure one of these theories has to be correct.

The move Aliens introduced most of us to a monster that had a second smaller set of jaws open up from it’s mouth which seemed totally retarded but cool. The goblin shark pretty much has the same thing which is totally worthy of some retard attention…

The goblin shark, Mitsukurina owstoni, is a deep-sea shark, the sole living species in the family Mitsukurinidae. The most distinctive characteristic of the goblin shark is the unorthodox shape of its head. It has a long, trowel-shaped, beak-like rostrum or snout, much longer than other sharks’ snouts. Some other distinguishing characteristics of the shark are the color of its body, which is mostly pink, and its long, protrusible jaws. When the jaws are retracted, the shark resembles a pink grey nurse shark, Carcharias taurus, with an unusually long nose.

Mitsukurina owstoni is found in the deep ocean, far below where the sun’s light can reach at depths greater than 200 m. They can be found throughout the world, from Australia in the Pacific Ocean to the Gulf of Mexico in the Atlantic Ocean.[4] They are best known from the waters around Japan, where the species was first discovered by modern science.

Goblin sharks feed on a variety of organisms that live in deep waters. Among some of their known meals are deep-sea squid, crabs and deep-sea fishes. Very little is known about the species’ life history and reproductive habits, as encounters with them have been relatively rare. As seemingly rare as they are however, there seems to be no real threat to their populations and so they are not classified as endangered species by the IUCN.

Goblin sharks can grow 11 feet (3.3 m) long and weigh 350 lb (159 kg). They have the typical shark’s semi-fusiform body. Unlike the common image of sharks, M. owstoni’s fins are not pointed and instead are low and rounded, with the anal and pelvic fins significantly larger than the dorsal fins. Their heterocercal tails are similar to the thresher shark’s, with the upper lobe significantly longer proportionately than other sharks’. In addition, the goblin shark’s tail lacks a ventral lobe.

The pink coloration, unique among sharks, is due to blood vessels underneath a semi-transparent skin (which bruises easily), thereby causing the coloring. The fins have a bluish appearance. Goblin sharks lack a nictitating membrane. They have no precaudal pit and no keels. The front teeth are long and smooth-edged, while the rear teeth are adapted for crushing.

Up to 25% of the goblin shark’s body weight can be its liver.

Sure when that old guy comes on TV late at night and asks you to feed starving children somewhere maybe it should take into account there are starving cannibals in the world. You might wonder while watching a zombie movie or just staring at yourself in the mirror how many cannibals could I feed - well wonder no more…

I could feed 18 cannibals - how many could you feed?

Cannibal feeding score

No word on how long you could feed them, I think at 255 pounds I could feed more than 18 in one sitting, maybe that is for a week (not sure how long it takes human to go bad).

Sure five million for a four bedroom smallish apartment would probably be not such a bad deal in New York city but the Trilobis 65 Floating Home doesn’t exist. It’s one of those vaporware products that companies without real products make shiny pictures of and pretend to sell without making any of them. Sort of like a company that has imaginary friends, like the retard empire.

Trilobis 65 is a semi-submerged
dwelling environment. Reaching 20 metres in length designed by Giancarlo Zema for habitation by six people at sea. It is ideal for living in bays, atolls and maritime parks. The main aim of the project is to allow anyone to live in a unique environment through a self sufficient, non-polluting dwelling cell in unison with their ocean surroundings.

Trilobis 65 has been designed on four separate levels connected by a spiraling staircase.

The top level is 3.5 metres above
sea level. The next level is at 1.4 metres above sea level and hosts the daylight zone with all services and allowing outdoor access. The third level is situated at 0.8 metre below sea level, semi-submerged, and is devoted to the night-time zone. At 3.0 metres below sea level, totally submerged, there is the underwater observation bulb, an intimate and mediative place.

The shape of Trilobis 65 allows the annular aggregation of more
modular units, creating island colonies.

This special project refers to the Trilobiti, little creatures that lived in the sea 500 milion years ago.

Contact Underwater Vehicles Inc. for further details regarding custom floating homes and Neptus 60 cliff-side dwellings with underwater viewing compartments. All homes are engineered to meet strict ABS and Lloyds certification requirements.

Maximum length - 20 mt
Maximum width - 13 mt
Observation bulb - 3 mt o.s.l. Max Speed - 7 knots
Accommodation - 6 beds
Power source options - Ballard fuel cells, solar, wind, diesel

“The main aim of the project is to allow anyone to live in a unique environment through a self-sufficient, nonpolluting dwelling that exists in unison with their ocean surrounding,” the creator Zema told POPULAR MECHANICS. At first glance, the Trilobis looks as if it would be more at home soaring into the sky than plying the waters of atolls, bays and maritime parks. Looking at a computer image of the bow conjures up visions of the flying saucers in 1950s science fiction films. The Trilobis’s blueprints, however, reveal a nautical heritage that reaches back to the humble dugout while simultaneously embracing 21st century technologies that include high-strength composites and nonpolluting hydrogen fuels.

Perhaps the most striking feature of Zema’s design is one that reflects his willing recognition of the great unspoken truth about luxury yachts. Powerful engines and sleek hulls aside, these vessels typically stick close to home. Acknowledging the fact that well-heeled mariners often prefer to keep their floating palaces moored inches from the dock, Zema also designed a special type of marina that will enable like-minded Trilobis owners to create their own floating villages. The traditional rectangular dock will disappear, to be replaced by a roughly 60-ft.-dia. circular island in the shape of a 6-tooth gear, into which individual yachts fit like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle.Stepping off the floating island, yachtsmen will ascend a few steps and find themselves on an expansive circular deck. At this level, the Trilobis resembles a deviled egg, measuring about 65 ft. from stem to stern and 42 ft. from port to starboard. Zema has divided the interior space into four functionally different levels, connected by a spiral stairway that runs through the yacht’s centerline. The top of the stairway opens onto the driving deck. Housing the helm, communications equipment and navigation gear, it offers the best view of the sea from its elevation of about 11 ft. above the waterline. The space is dominated by a massive glass wall that begins above the stairway and arcs gently over the forward seating area before disappearing into the deck below. Ordinarily, so large an expanse of glass would pose a heating problem, but this is no ordinary window. It is a sandwich of two layers of tempered glass and an electrolyte with a very unusual property. With the turn of a dial, you can change the voltage flowing through the electrolyte material, which is encased between the panes, altering the tint of the window or blacking it out entirely. Power for the windows and the ship’s electrical systems comes from photovoltaic panels, manufactured by Siemens, that are integrated into a foam-reinforced fiberglass skin. At night and on cloudy days, power comes from batteries, with an inverter converting DC into AC for low-loss power distribution.

The most distinctive feature of the Trilobis is its fully submerged first level, the observation bulb. Like the driving deck and day area above, it offers a commanding and unobstructed view of the sea. Only here, that view begins 10 ft. below the waterline. This is the smallest of the levels, just big enough for six chairs. Built to the same technical standards as tourist submarines, it is a thick glass enclosure that provides a 360° view. So that this area can be used when there’s no sunlight, the Trilobis has a ring of 200-watt spotlights, angled away from the observation bulb, to illuminate any sea life swimming directly in front of the viewers. The second set of spotlights, placed just below the deck level, lights the reefs below. Zema is several years from building the first Trilobis. Most likely, it will be constructed in Vancouver, British Columbia, where he has set up an exclusive marketing relationship with Underwater Vehicles Inc. The location may seem like an unusual choice, but the region has the two essential ingredients needed to make the Trilobis project a success. The first is its wealth of small inlets and bays. The second is a pool of wealthy yacht owners, one of whom may be willing to invest the $4 million to $5 million it will take to launch yachting into the 21st century.

Vaporware definition: Vaporware is a software or hardware product which is announced by a developer well in advance of release, but which then fails to emerge, either with or without a protracted development cycle. The term implies unwarranted optimism, or sometimes even deception; that is, it may imply that the announcer knows that product development is in too early a stage to support responsible statements about its completion date, feature set, or even feasibility.

Always be concerned when someone is trying to sell something to market using an experimental unproven fuel and is named after an undrinkable alcoholic soft drink.

Don’t get me wrong I love the pretty pictures and would totally dig riding in the imaginary sub, just beware investing in a company that is making things up unless they use credible words like new market synergy.

In the medical field if you are not providing aggressive or ‘heroic’ medical care you are simply providing ‘palliative’ care or aid and comfort. In a tribute to Fidel Castro (hero to millions) let’s celebrate Cuba’s palliative health care system…

Question: What happens when a black hole meets another black hole of the same size? (and the range is near enough for both to engulf/suck in/take in the other)…

Answer: The pimp makes makes them split the money.

Sure the correct answer (I guess it’s correct I never finished rocket scientist school) is long and rambling with lots of big words I can’t understand. This answer only got one vote: The black holes orbit each other sending out characteristic gravitational waves. Gravity waves are waves of compression and expansion - if one happened nearby, you’d briefly wobble taller and shorter. The waves from merging black holes are the strongest gravity waves in existance spiralling out towards us, and gravity experiments are trying to catch them in the act, but they are almost impossibly faint by the time they reach us. The waves suck energy from the black hole orbits, until they spiral together, forming a larger black hole, in a titanic clash sending out a burst of intense gamma ray radiation.

I am pretty sure he pretty much made up the part about wobbling taller and shorter and can’t spell existence. At the end of the day all the fancy book learning people got a lower score than retard boy Jerome. Education and subject knowledge aren’t necessary for celebrities to weigh in on complicated issues they know absolutely nothing about and it shouldn’t top you.

Take this question for instance:

What is the true meaning of Wicca?

The short answer is Wicca is a modern spiritual religion, based on and reviving the ancient pre-Christian pagan religions of Europe. Wiccans believe in a divine force or power as the source of all found in nature, kind of like the force from Star Wars only less plausible.

Wicca was founded by a retired civil servant in 1954, Gerald Gardner, who practically at random combined hundreds of years of rstlirt pagan traditions. Wicca is only one variety of pagan witchcraft, with distinctive ritual forms, seasonal observances and religious, magical and ethical precepts.

So basically if you are a goth or nerd who is too scared to imagine a world without an afterlife but adverse to organized religion you too can be like Harry Potter and cast spells.

It is our calling as people with computers and a connection to the internet. Just being at work shouldn’t let work stop you from surfing the web and weighing in on any subject that interests you. Remember there are no stupid answers only ones that not everyone accepts, most are based at some level on opinion. With the magic of Google your answer could well be the number one result. You never know some reporter might use your made up stuff in a story. Some little kid might even source you in his book report, just think of all the people you can misinform inform. Knowledge is power, but the accuracy of any answers is normally speculative. There are hordes of people out there who believe in all kinds of made up stuff.

Gingervitis is a serious hereditary disease caused by a recessive gene. It can lay dormant for years and two perfectly healthy parents can have Ginger Babies. Gingervitis affects millions of people world wide. The symptoms of gingervitis include: Red hair, pale skin, and freckles, a “Soulless” feeling.

This International Gingervitis Foundation is dedicated to awareness about the red headed defect.

1) What is Gingervitis?

Gingervitis is a serious hereditary disease caused by a recessive gene. It can lay dormant for years and two perfectly healthy parents can have Ginger Babies. Gingervitis affects millions of people world wide. The symptoms of gingervitis include: Red hair, pale skin, and freckles, a “Soulless” feeling. Some Ginger Kids may show symptoms such as violence and depression. Although Gingervitis is not a life threatening disease it can be very serious. There is currently no known cure and very little treatment for Gingervitis.

2) Is Gingervitis contagious?

No, Ginger Kids are born with Gingervitis. It is hereditary and cannot be contracted in any other way.

3) Are Ginger Kids dangerous?

Although some Ginger Kids may be dangerous, many others are not. Ginger Kids do have a genetic predisposition towards anger and depression, but this is caused by there appearance and often times amplified by taunting and harassment. Contrary to popular belief, many Ginger Kids live healthy, happy lives.

4) Do Ginger Kids have Souls?

Unfortunately no, Ginger Kids are born without souls. A common misconception is that you need a soul to survive. This is completely false. Ginger Kids are people just like everyone else, even if they don’t have souls. Many Ginger Kids live happy, healthy, productive lives devoid of any sort of soul.

5) If a Ginger Kid bites me what should I do?

If you have been bitten by a Ginger Kid immediately wash the wound with soap and water. If you have alcohol or peroxide apply it to the wound

REDHEADS are becoming rarer and could be extinct in 100 years, according to genetic scientists.

The current National Geographic magazine reports that less than two per cent of the world’s population has natural red hair, created by a mutation in northern Europe thousands of years ago.

Global intermingling, which broadens the availability of possible partners, has reduced the chances of redheads meeting and producing little redheads of their own.

It takes only one red-haired parent to produce ginger-headed babies, but two redheads obviously create a much stronger possibility.

If the gingers really want to save themselves they should move to Scotland.

An estimated 40 per cent of Scots carry the red gene and 13 per cent actually have red hair.

Some experts say that redheads could be gone as early as 2060, but others say the gene can be dormant for generations before returning.

National Geographic says the gene at first had the beneficial effect of increasing the body’s ability to make vitamin D from sunlight.

However, today’s carriers are more prone to skin cancer and have a higher sensitivity to heat and cold-related pain.

More about a world without redheads

We can dream, we can only dream for now about a world without redheads.

There are some exceptions to the rule - a few should be kept for nostalgia maybe in a zoo somewhere or something…
