Another good trainer for the coming apocalypse Left 4 Dead To Be Cut Scene Free Just remember, if your kid acts like this... Chances are you better get the zombie kit out and keep your distance.

@McAvoy, they said it was a mix fuel. JP-8 was only half of the mix, so whatever they mixed it with probably completely changed its properties. Anyway... Good Stuff... First Flight of Sikorsky X2 Demonstrator Stunning Desert Canyon Flight Video Extreme Engineering M1 Abrams Tank Interesting Stuff... NRO (not NSA) On the Chopping Block Bad Stuff... Harrier Crash Due to Pilot Error Signal Changes Afghanistan Sold Short -- Allied Troops Die And the ongoing body armor soap opera continues to make us wonder what the military really cares about, the bottom line or the troops?

Then may I suggest some fine cinema choices? And of course the whole Evil Dead series, which btw S.R. has confided that he intends to do a remake later now that he's a big budget movie maker

Alternatives to Sade LP's The Auto Assault-12 (AA-12) is a fully automatic, recoilless shotgun that can fire 300 rounds per minute. That is a lot of zombies my friend. Okay, so a UAV that can stab zombies from the sky does not currently exist - but that would be one hell of a weapon. A V8 powered chainsaw is probably not the best choice in terms of mobility, but if you could somehow attach it to the front of your truck the carnage you could inflict on a crowd of zombies would be epic. Being able to reload quickly is essential when being swarmed by zombies. The FAST (Fast And Smooth Transition) system can help by providing a quick release magazine for your M-16 magazines. You might as well look the part... This crazy wrist knife is easy to wield, it looks intimidating and it is scary cheap at only $35. Never forget those cliff notes...(Bonus) In the heat of battle, all you need to do is glance down at your shirt to determine the best area to attack. Available for $21. Presently not being sold, so you may need to make one yourself. Just remember there is no such thing as being too prepared. Having a zombie survival kit close at hand is always a good idea. The Book that survivors swear by One of the scariest weapons in this arsenal, the wasp knife "injects a ball of compressed gas into its victim that then expands to the size of a basketball, instantly freezing and exploding their internal organs." In close quarters combat, a handgun with a bayonet could come in mighty handy. In fact, any of the guns in the following link would be nice to have in a zombie battle. Remember, customization can increase your chances of survival! If you are going to be fighting zombies, you need to keep those guns clean to ensure that they function properly. This gun washing machine can clean up to 10 handguns or 4 long guns simultaneously. Available for $7,795. More is Better Keep away from these guys, zombies can't even read, they'll be the first to go Practice your skills with minimum chance of decapitating... uh, someone you really didn't intend to. Trust me it takes forever to get the stains out of the carpets Remember... And don't forget zombies aren't limited to the formerly human type... Good luck

A bit in passing, since compared to Godzilla and similar monsters both Khan and Exceed are pretty much light weights. But Khan is as Enzyme-eternal pointed out composed of lots and lots of bodies stacked together. So cellularly he would be about the same density as the zoanoids that make up his body. And unlike Exceed Khan doesn't need the body to work like a normal body, he just needed the raw matter to make up his form. The strain of his size is probably offset by the shape-shifting aspect, and of course using up zoanoids like no tomorrow, and Exceed did manage to tear his forearms off which could be indicative that his physical structure relies a lot on mass and not so much actual dexterity. Meaning Khan doesn't violate the physical laws so much as gets around them. Exceed is the main problem because of the proportional increase in power and apparently dexterity, which not even the massively powerful Bio-Missiles or Purgatorium could put any noticeable damage at all. Given the lack of increase density to explain the increase power, leaves us with few possibilities but of course the theories provided are very intriguing.

As I see it the Gigantic is always carrying out an energy operation, which would explain why it would collapse when it uses up too much energy and auto de-activates. The energy infusion is vital to its structure basically. It's just with the Exceed that the shear amount of energy is so incredible that it causes the orbs to noticeably glow and is the reason the Exceed is Red.Energy is also less dense than matter like steam is less dense than water, even though it amounts to the same thing. So with an energy infusion based super charged Bio-Boost growth the charge of energy concentration would increase with size without noticeably effecting mass as much as raw matter, as it would essentially be limited to offsetting the mostly empty space that is being filled with said energy. Explaining the same density from Gigantic to Exceed but still giving a proportional increase in abilities with a higher intensity charge of energy. Note, the honey comb is just for comparison. As I said, the actual molecular structure would be something more complex but the principle in laymen terms is basically the same, just in 3D so applicable for the full range of movement and associated stress factors. The actual structure would be on the atomic scale as the same structure would also have to be able to contain the infused energy.Possibly something innate even to the Guyver organism that combined with the Relic Organism produced a structure that takes advantage of the energy infusion to make a light weight and super strong molecular makeup. So since the Guyver Organism merges with the host cells, like it does with the bones and muscles. It can apply this effect throughout the body to allow the entire body to take advantage of this feature. The Gigantic further makes it effective by making the host even less human as it merges with the Relic Organism and thus make the Exceed possible. You asked that before, this basically breaks down to the sophistication of the level of control. Though it would explain the need for the CM to get larger.However the intensity of energy involved is such at that scale that the slightest loss of control would likely be highly visible. Such as when Exceed got knocked out of the sky by Khan's Barrier Penetrating Bio-Missiles. Things like Aptom sticking like a fly on flypaper, or an aurora borialis effect, etc. As I stated before, this doesn't rule it out but seems to me to make it unlikely. But then again I could just be biased for my theory.

Hmm, could be I think you missed the part that the changes were noted with the Gigantic to begin with. The Gigantic starts out less dense than the normal Guyver, yet is far more powerful and durable. Ryuki makes the point the density and form of the Gigantic remains exactly the same all the way to Exceed form. So I think the confusion is you are thinking the normal Gigantic is suppose to be normal, versus the Exceed, when rather it shows that it was different to begin with when you compare it to the normal Guyver. Even how the Gigantic handles damage is different from the normal Guyver, who bleeds when cut etc. While the Gigantic has shown hardly any blood when damaged. Basically cutting the Gigantic is more like cutting a fruit, you get some fluids but it quickly stops and you have to cut pretty deep to get even that much. The Relic Biology was of course very different from ours, you could even say it was almost plant like. So since the Gigantic is a merger between the Guyver and a Unit based off the Relic that it should be considered that the Gigantic modifies the host far more than the standard Guyver Unit does. The Guyver itself is basically part alien, since the Unit instantly remodels the host body and combines it with the Guyver organism. So modified even further by the Gigantic means we can't assume human rules of biology would still apply to the Gigantic. That said though you're concerns about enlarging atoms, etc are valid and would normally be a great concern but it should be remembered that the Gigantic body is basically a closed system. If everything is scaled, including the physical constants, then the body will work the same at any scale. Things like oxygen would also get scaled with both YoungGuyver's and Ryuki's theories, even if the Exceed still needed to breath any oxygen drawn could just be scaled up just like the Exceed was scaled up when drawn in. The main problem is thermodynamics of different scaled objects differ greatly and mechanical efficiency of any particular design also gets effected by scale. Which is why with a disease like Gigantism in which someone never stops growing, they often die from heart failure even though the heart gets larger with the rest of the body it doesn't work well when made larger than its intended size. However, again, the Gigantic is hardly human anymore. Also YoungGuyver's theory avoids this as a dimensional shift would scale everything including the physical factors. My own belief is that the Unit combined energy infusion with the Bio-Boost (which includes rapid cellular growth as can be seen with the rapid regeneration it induces). Merged with the organism the cell structure can use the energy infusion to reinforce itself the same way the normal Guyver increases the strength and durability of the host muscles and bones. Really, normal human bones and muscles would liquify at the pressures induced by Guyver level strength if the unit didn't enhance them. A honey comb like structure for example can be stacked almost indefinitely since the design efficiently spreads the strain. It can even be said to get stronger the more cells you add as the load gets spread so well. Of course the molecular structure of the Gigantic is far more complex but the basic principle could still apply with cells that can reinforce themselves with energy infusion. The system would self correct for the thermodynamics as it scales since the unit naturally regulates thermal energy and is essentially part of its metabolism. The Relic after all survived on thermal energy... So to me this fits more with the Exceed since it did not seem to me that the physics were scaled and fits to the idea that the Exceed is something fundamentally consistent to the Gigantic and how it is designed.

This is consistent with what I've said, babies have to learn faster than adults and the brain for human's doesn't change size much throughout the life of a person. So a lot of the energy needed to grow the brain comes from the mother and we just basically maintain it for the rest of our lives. Then there are examples like certain birds can make their brains get bigger when they are getting ready to do something complex like migrate and then the brain returns to normal size afterward. So conservation of energy, versus cost benefit, is the biological rule for how much energy and mass is dedicated to brain power. As the whale example shows the brain is scalable, but performance relates to its ratio to the body. The main hurdle for the Exceed is at that size nerve impulses would take a long time to get anywhere, but that's going by normal bio-chemical reaction (basically an impulse from your toe to your brain travels at about 75 MPH) but chemical reactions can be accelerated and the Gigantic itself probably factors in as it has been noted the size factor should be effecting even the normal Gigantic. Generally as life forms get bigger their metabolism gets slower and more sluggish. But the Gigantic is at least as fast as the normal Guyver, if not faster. Even the normal Guyver has noted an accelerated perception as some like the new Female Guyver has noted that zoanoids seem to be moving almost in slow motion to her. This suggests the normal speed of the brain processes are being accelerated by the Unit. Other factors of the human brain is memory, scientists have discovered memory is stored in specific pattern and locations. Which means it's scalable with brain size. So technically the brain can be scaled and still function the same and the Unit seems to compensate for the only real problem of speed. So the only real question is which of our theories of how the Gigantic scales up to Exceed works the best?

Nah, that'll be anti-file sharing, anti-net neutrality, anti-privacy Biden who wants to make 1984 a reality. He's already trying to pass a bill that will give 1 billion of our tax dollars to helping the RIAA spy on us for our own good... Combined with the far left pro-choice-ers who'll decide who should live and who should die, prompted by the rampant overpopulation of an virtually immortal population would put in place Logan's Run style population control policies. That or the socialized health care, which has already been tried in two states, will so bankrupt the system, like it has in those two states, that they'll just randomly, and not so accidentally, cut you off. Then there are the so called celebrity environmentalists who use gas guzzling private jets, SUV's, don't recycle, etc. Gee, if the right is so bad why don't we just run right over to the insane left... Not!

Speaking of Johnny 5. . . Johnny 5 Apparently Still Alive 22 Years Later

Typically the brain has to be proportional to the body, the actual size of the brain isn't as important as the ratio of its size to the body. Thus the greater the ratio of the brain versus body size is the greater the intelligence. Just like the body size and volume ratios this seems to be a fairly consistent rule of biology. Explaining for example why a whale isn't smarter than us even though its brain is much larger than ours but compared to its body ratio is smaller than our ratio. Conservation of energy being one of the basis for why that generally works out that way. The Brain uses more energy than any other organ in your body. So the size is limited to what the body can support unless the extra brain power is vital for survival like it is in us. There are of course many other factors to consider but it's a safe bet to say the Exceed has a big brain

Well that's understandable since they are still selling the PS2 and if you note the cost between the 20GB, which is backwards compatable, and the 160GB the cost difference is about the same as just adding a PS2 to the package. In a way it is better since the PS3 sucks up a bit more juice than the PS2 and since the PS3 doubles as your Blu-Ray movie player that you don't want to wear out the drive as much as possible. As for the PSP, yeah that's a common complaint but Sony doesn't plan any serious design changes for 10 years from the time the PSP first came out. So they are only doing incremental updates. This one is mainly for those who haven't already got a PSP-Slim and makes it Skype ready right out of the box.

We wouldn't be talking about ancient Egypt, but rather the Egypt of the last few centuries which has hardly been friendly towards women. Remember Balcus is the oldest of the modern Zoalords and he's only just over 400 years old. But this was a fairly bad time for women's rights when we had psychologists reasoning women who wanted to read must be mentally ill and would have their ovaries removed to cure them. Just to show some of the extreme thinking of those times. Of course this was not true of the experience of all women but is indicative of the overall common mindset of men at the time period most of the Zoalords came from. Most of the changes in women's rights happened in the 20th century and most of the Zoalords predate the 20th century except for Guyot and now Imakarum. Even if the Zoalords are generally more liberal and progressive minded than those from the same time period they originated from averaged. It should be remembered the idea of women soldiers is not something readily accepted even today where even in the US women combat roles are limited. And respecting women is separate from trusting them to be in the position of a Supreme Zoalord. Men have such sensitive ego's after all

I don't think it can be emphasized enough how some cultures view women and centuries ago a lot more of the world had similar views. It has only been fairly recently that this has changed but those changes are mainly set in the western world as this news article shows some cultures still treat women as property... http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/7579616.stm It really is hard to get past a world view you grew up with even if you are a scientist, for example just about a century ago Marie Curie was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize but she suffered depression because she could never teach at a university because they didn't allow women to do that in her lifetime. It's amazing how things have changed in just a century but as pointed out many parts of the world still cling to old beliefs, there is even still female slave trades, etc in the world. As well as general male rage against women, especially those who want more equal rights... http://jezebel.com/5041324/new-statistics-...e-rise-in-india So we have to remember the whole world is not like us and humanity as a whole still has a long way to go.

Laser weapons: A distant target Six Ton Walking Spider Takes Passengers on Giant Robot Rides

Technically a Mecha only has to be 15 feet tall, or about 5 meters. To be classified as a Mecha, though true it'll have to be pretty big before it gets impressive. Basic exo-suits are already a reality and can even be rented in Japan. The US military is working on a more powerful version, as well as robot assist units like a mule like 4 legged robot that is meant to help carry gear and supplies. The video of it in operation is pretty impression to boot since even kicking it hard won't knock it down and can walk on ice and through other obstacles. The main obstacle to making something really big is the amount of armor it'll need. Since the basic structure is do-able and wouldn't really weigh as much as you think, as most of the structure would be basically hollow. But Armor is extremely dense, which is why they generally don't armor fighter jets and such very much. The Abrams tank weighs about 68 tons, good luck making that fly. However I predict breakthroughs in energy shield technology to come out soon. They are already figuring out how to make things invisible by bending light around the object, but they are also making good progress of using plasma as a shield. Combined with a suitable portable power source it could mean we can skip on heavy armor to make the mechs more practical. Though we are also developing super strong light weight materials. So who knows what we will ultimately wind up with. Chances are though mechs of the Future will be more Mech Warrior like than Robotech like. It's just a matter of which is more practical.

You do know Iceland is going completely Hydrogen? And virtually every major car manufacturer is producing either hybrid or full alternate fuel cars. In California they are selling fully electric sports cars. Really the whole running your car on water is a scam just like unlimited energy sources scams. You can't get the hyrdogen and oxygen from water without a process of extraction that itself requires energy. So all you achieve is turn one form of energy into another. You don't eliminate oil, so long as oil is still the easiest way to get the energy. There isn't anywhere in the world were we can just drill for hydrogen, we have to extract it and that takes energy. There may be some truth that oil companies may have slowed the progress of alternate fuel technology but they haven't stopped it. Just this year they will implement an inprovement in production that will reduce the cost of producing solar cells by 25%, cars are going to made more energy efficient with heat converters that will improve overall efficiency by several percentage points. Doing things like collecting waste heat and putting it to work, etc. Over the past year the US has put so much effort into ethenol fuel that it has cost food prices to go up because of all the corn being allocated to ethenol fuel research. Really you shouldn't believe all those conspiracy sites. And before believing everything you hear about the Iraq war try looking up the actual history of Saddam and facts like the fact he was abusing the Oil for Food Program to re-arm. Things like Russian made anti-stealth RADAR is hardly a food product to be paid for with oil. And it wasn't the US who kicked out the inspectors, why does everyone forget he was under responsibility from the Gulf War to disarm or the war would be continued? He kicked the inspectors out violating the cease fire agreement he made. I think people just try to oversimpify the war, we were wrong on how far along Saddam was in re-arming but the fact is he was trying and would eventually have succeeded. The guy has a history showing exactly how ruthless he could be and his sons were just as bad if not worse. So this would have continued on to the next generation. The number of mass graves found in Iraq puts Saddam's reign right up there with Rwandan genocide of 1994, Pol Pot's Cambodian killing fields in the 1970s, and the Nazi Holocaust of World War II. Since over 400,000 bodies have been found so far and every now and then a mass grave is still being discovered. The guy even used nerve gas on his own people. So the reasons for the war may have been exaggerated, too soon. But they weren't outright lies. Much of it was simply due to bad intel, since decades of budget cuts has left spy agencies with little Resources to confirm what exiled Iraqies were telling us. This is not to say oil had no factor, just that it wasn't the only factor. The war was actually justified if not fully warranted. So the one thing the US government is guilty of is jumping the gun and the total mismanagement of the post war. The War had cost America hundreds of billions, over 4000 soldiers have died with over 30,000 wounded and that's just US casualties. We helped forgive much of Iraq's pre-war depts and are rebuilding the countries infrastructure. It's just that a series of bad decisions is what put this war into its present negative status, but hopefully we can still fix it and we have at least made some progress along those lines and even gotten to the point that withdrawal plans are being considered as Iraq shows signs the people are finally taking control. Anyway, back on topic, Intel recently announced they believe we will become a race of cyborgs by 2050, at least the part in which we can plug into technology like in the Matrix movies.
