  1. Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence....There is the VLA (Very Large Array) of radio Telescopes that was being used to listen for radio or other forms of EM communiction thought to come from an extraterrestrial civilization. Now they use the Mount Arecibo (sp) telescope in Puerto Rico. One of the largest in the world. They collect so much data, that they can't analyze it all. So, they set up SETI @Home. The basic principle is simple. If you network a lot of small computers, you can effectively create a huge one. So, they send out a program which you can download for free, they send you a chunk of data, which your computer analyzes, using Fast Fourier Transfroms ( used to find patterns in data), then sends it back. Then they send you another chunk of data....etc. Here's the website http://www.setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/

  2. I used to run it, but I switched to XP and I couldn't get to work. Oh well, it used to take 3-5 hours per unit, when I had it.

  3. Is there some sort of school or place in Co where I could go to learn? I figured there has to be somewhere, it's not like you can go teach yourself.

  5. I have a pet iguana. Crazy animal. It owns the house. It climbs where and when it wants to. Usually behind the fridge. My mother who's pretty much adopted it, is about ready to throw it out the window, cause it's eaten all the house plants. Or as I like to call them, the Amazon forest. She has the amazing ability to resurrect plants from the dead. The ivy was slowly taking over the house. It was getting kinda scared of sleeping at home becasue I'd wake up one night tied up by the plants. I'd post a pic, but I don't have one. BTW, you can walk an iguana. I used to have a leash, but it got too big for it. Try to imagine the looks you get from having an 3 foot long iguana on a leash.

    Lithuanian girl wants to make a parachute jump naked

    Vilnius female resident Ruta Pranskunaite desperately wants to become a sex star. She is so eager to get this title that she is ready to make a parachute jump. Actually, there is nothing surprising about it, except for the girl’s intention to jump naked. Ruta hopes that the jump will open her a way to the word of big erotica.

    “I hope that photographers will pay attention to me and remember me. This might make me a sex star,” – said Ruta Pranskunaite (29). Ruta works as a massage woman, she has a daughter of five years old, she is raising her without a father. Ruta is fond of nude modeling. Her nude photographs were published in newspapers and demonstrated on photo shows.

    Tiff, laugh, love and play with your mate every chance that you get. In the end, it's better to have as few regrets as possible. If you're thinking of a vacation together, do it. If you've been wanting to try something together, do it. Just spend *quality* time with each other.

    I agree. And whatever happens, we'll be here for you. Best wishes. I'll keep you two in my prayers. I hope this isn't inappropriate, could you give an address that we can send cards, flowers..etc. It's the best I can do.
    Best Wishes and blue ones,
