Corruption in China
by fulltimestudent inconsider this scenario:.
a young lawyer is elected mayor of the city and promises to rid it of the corruption it's famous for.
the problem is that most of the corruption he's vowed to eliminate is caused by the crooked political machine that helped elect him.. .

Photoshop Op...
by oppostate inwouldn't it be great to see the big 8, wel the big 8 in the jw world not the national leaders big 8, ehem.. if they would all grow a beard for the next business meeting in october, where the nu-lite(r) is that beards are ok for men.. could someone photoshop one of the prevalent new smiley photos of the gb and put a few weeks of whisker growth on them?.
just wondering what it would look like.
not duck dynasty length, perhaps, but nicely trimmed full beards, or maybe goatees.. what do you think it would look like?

This is not a computer simulation. It's an actual time-lapse video taken over
four years by the Hubble—and scientists don't know its origin yet.
http://sploid.gizmodo.com/star-explosion-video-is-the-most-awesome-thing-i-have-e-1589138376First, despite appearances, the cloud itself is not changing in these images!
It’s actually fairly static, with movement far too small to notice on this time-
scale. What you’re seeing is actually a pulse of light from the outburst moving
through the cloud, illuminating it. Light moves very rapidly, but the cloud is
huge, light years across. That means it takes a long time for light to cross it,
and over the years we’re just seeing different parts of the dust cloud lit. This
type of event is common in astronomy, and it’s called a light echo.Second, although we’re not exactly sure what caused the outburst, the most like-
ly explanation is that two normal (but massive) stars merged together. An event
like this is pretty rare, but entirely possible. When that happens they form a
single, more massive star, which is unstable. It can undergo a huge paroxysm,
brightening by a factor of thousands, and also expand and redden. This all fits
what we see here; the dust cloud would’ve been part of the nebula that formed the
stars, and existed long before they did.
http://www.slate.com/blogs/bad_astronomy/2014/06/12/v838_mon_video_of_a_stellar_outburst.htmlThis behavior of ballooning to an immense size, but not losing its outer layers,
is very unusual and completely unlike an ordinary nova explosion.The outburst may represent a transitory stage in a star's evolution that is rare-
ly seen. The star has some similarities to highly unstable aging stars called
eruptive variables, which suddenly and unpredictably increase in brightness.V838 Monocerotis is located about 20,000 light-years away from Earth in the di-
rection of the constellation Monoceros, placing the star at the outer edge of our
Milky Way galaxy.
http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/imagegallery/image_feature_784.htmlLight echo
Rapidly brightening objects like novae and supernovae are known to produce a
phenomenon known as light echo. The light that travels directly from the object
arrives first. If there are clouds of interstellar matter around the star, some
light is reflected from the clouds. Because of the longer path, the reflected
light arrives later, producing a vision of expanding rings of light around the
erupted object.In the case of V838 Monocerotis, the light echo produced was unprecedented and
is well documented in images taken by the Hubble Space Telescope. While the photos
appear to depict an expanding spherical shell of debris, they are actually formed
by the illumination of an ever-expanding ellipsoid with the progenitor star at one
focus and the observer at the other. Hence, despite appearances, the structures in
these photos are actually concave toward the viewer. In other words, the light is
reflecting dust that is mostly 'behind' the star, not in 'front' of it.It is not yet clear if the surrounding nebulosity is associated with the star
itself. If that is the case, they may have been produced by the star in earlier
eruptions which would rule out several models that are based on single catastroph-
ic events. However, there is strong evidence that the V838 Monocerotis system is
very young and still embedded in the nebula from which it formed.Interestingly, the eruption initially emitted at shorter wavelengths (i.e. was
bluer), which can be seen in the light echo: the outer border is bluish in the
Hubble images.

800 Infant Bodies Found in a Septic Tank at Roman Catholic Children's Home
by cofty in796 infant skeletons have been found discarded in a septic tank at the former mother and baby home run by the catholic church in ireland between 1925 and 1961.. unwed mothers were sent these "magdelene asylums" to be treated like criminals.
their babies - if they survived - were taken from them.
if they did not survive their bodies were thrown into a septic tank and forgotton.

Milltown archaeologist to advise on Tuam baby burials
But Ms Maguire says there is a strong possibility there could be more
bodies in the area, some of which would be children who died before
they were baptised and therefore forbidden for many years from being
buried on consecrated ground.These so-called cillini burials saw children, often stillborn,
secretly buried by their parents around the edge of cemeteries during
the night. That may have happened at the graveyard attached to the
workhouse that preceded the mother-and-baby home.Many babies, she added, were buried in little more than a shroud
which will have disintegrated leaving thousands of bones all mixed
together.She added that people should hold back on memorials until the extent
and location of burials is clear.She told the Mirror: “People obviously are talking about a memorial
being erected here, but I would caution against that until the full
extent of burials is known. You could start digging up land for a
memorial and be bringing up remains with the soil depending on how
shallow they are.”Ms Maguire said there will be a huge amount of work to do, cross-
referencing the nuns’s records against state records of how many
mothers and babies were sent to the home. The land will also be
studied and mapped to establish where the graveyard for the old work-
house on the site was, taking into account changes in the law that saw
graves moved outside the workhouse perimeter in the 1800s.During the independent archaeologist’s excavation at Milltown, one mass
grave alone was found to contain at least 429 babies.However, in an indication of the difficulties in such operations, she
added: “One grave digger we spoke to said on some days there were 50
babies brought to Milltown so they didn’t all get recorded."Also these graves remained open but covered for some time so parents
of stillborn babies for example would come to the grave in the middle
of the night and bury their children there, so the true extent of
burials is difficult to establish.“I don’t think it would be the same scale at Tuam, but it’s certainly possible
given this home was runs by nuns and would have been seen as a holy place that
there could be burials close to the workhouse cemetery and that will add to the
complexity of any effort to establish how many babies are buried here.”
