[edit] News articles

The real problem for Wikipedia isn't that it's too big, too inaccurate or even too trivial. No, it's simply too cutting-edge, and that's technology's fault. As broadband spreads and consumers become more internet-savvy, so it will get harder and harder for Wikipedia's writers to retain any sort of authority. Entries are made, edited and altered as things happen, sometimes even before. The site can't always reflect what people know any more; it reflects what people think. In a way, the fact that Britannica was always a little bit out of date was its main strength, because time gave its writers and readers enough space to consider their ideas and acquire a little perspective. Users in general - and Sir Norman in particular - could do well to remember that one person's fact is another person's falsehood, and that occasionally only time allows us to work out which is which. Wikipedia: A very modern encyclopedia by Matt Warman

The question I have is, why is that a bad thing? Having this discussion out in the open, with Wiki history as memory, tracks the evolution of narrative.

For your efforts on cleaning up Electrical Equipment in Hazardous Areas; and keep up the great work! - Roy Boy ⁸⁰⁰ 02:14, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

To realize, that like life, in order to succeed in whatever you do, you need to evolve constantly. To genuinely change your perception to suit the situation and to better yourself and the world around you. That there are no absolutes, just the situation. (Sun-Tzu?)

Not Sun Tzu. The most similar Sun Tzu statement is:

The Art of War, Chaper VI. Weak Points and Strong

31. Water shapes its course according to the nature of the ground over which it flows; the soldier works out his victory in relation to the foe whom he is facing.

32. Therefore, just as water retains no constant shape, so in warfare there are no constant conditions.

Just trying to be helpful. Feel free to delete this. KillerChihuahua^?!? 16:08, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

To answer RoyBoy, it's not that it's in a low energy state, it is that it is in a state that is maintained by the creation of entropy as energy flows from high to low energy situations. This is the basis of the kind of order that characterizes living things. Basically, we exist because there is an energy source (the Sun) and sink (empty space), and a constant transfer of energy from the one to the other. Part of the process of energy transfer involves the spontaneous generation of ordered structures. Bill Jefferys 17:46, 21 November 2005 (UTC)

"There is growing evidence in many cancers that a subset of stem/progenitor cells may drive the proliferation of diseased cells. A new field of "differentiation therapy," which seeks to induce the benign behavior or death of these cells, may herald a new era in cancer therapy." - Stuart Kauffman, University of Calgary, Author of "At Home in the Universe"

[edit] Online fanbase

A small but loyal international fanbase for Blade Runner remains active on the Internet. The first focal point was in 1992 when 2019: Off-World came online. Then in the fall of 1996 BladeZone appeared and evolved into a fan club and extensive website with exclusive interviews from actors and crew involved with the film. Also in 1996 the newsgroup alt.fan.blade-runner was created and remains active; along with its website BRmovie.com which has an updated FAQ and encyclopedia on the film. BR-Insight.com provides a forum for analytical essays and reviews of the film.

[edit] Beef jerky

partial freeze meat to slice thinly thinner = better cutting with grain makes thinner stuff that comes off in strips cut against grain crumbly, but softer and easier to bite

beef, eye of round roast, rib eye, serloin, flank (thin)

cups 1.5 soya sauce 0.5 teriyaki sauce 0.25 BBQ sauce 4 cloves garlic crushed 0.75 honey pinch of onion powder maybe beer

marinade 24hrs at least 6-8hrs per batch/rotate trays more open, more dry
