that much is certain, the best the US et al could acheive is a minor set back to natural progress but in the grand scheme of things you can't stop it. Is the minor set back worth causing real politcal upset right now over, justified by what might happen in the future? Who decides who is allowed weapons and who is not, doesn't that make us the bad guys. It's a tricky area

you are right! The only bombs ever used for real were the two on Japan, and they were fission only low yield bombs. Basically the two on Japan had an approximate yield of 20kt, although studies afterwards estimate the actual yield was probably less, around the 10-15kt area. What we call thermonuclear h-bombs are basically fission induced fusion (hydrogen) bombs. The fission part could be seen as the trigger or starter for the much more violent fussion part. The largest I've ever heard of was a 100mt h-bomb, approx 10,000 times more powerful than those used on Japan! Scary. Typically these days warheads arn't just made as powerful as possible, warhead engineering designs bombs to be more effective, this might mean making it contain say 3 smaller nuclear bombs rather than one massive one = more effective. The testing thing is a bit hypocritical, the USA have done soooo much testing (mainly back in the 50s) that it is untrue. N.Korea is developing its own now and basically wants to test them like the USA did many years ago. Whether we can trust them to use them for peacekeeping defence is another issue altogether

or give it a go yourself, I did one of mine the other day (just cleaned it up rather than painted it) and it turned out great. do a search on here for a step by step guide on how to do it if you can't be bothered with the hassle then yes GZaerojon is the man on here

It was very competative in JGTC (superGT now) and won loads, I only wish I'd seen more of it in action. and not to mention certain famous supras like the Jun 250mph car and the various 8s 1/4 mile and even 7s cars!

Nic has told you all you need to know, I just did mine and I ordered them from power bulbs http://www.powerbulbs.co.uk/ 9005/HB3 and trim the plastic as required. I trimmed my tabs down so the bulb would push in and turn, just one of the 3 tabs was a bit too fat compared to 9005J, easy job though

you're just fine, it's kinda dancy like you say... I'm just surprised you can hear the tune over the voices in your head

so there is a song out there that has lyrics "how now baby..." "how now brown baby cow..." hhmmm *cough* no comment *cough*

so, no song name, no artist and the wrong lyrics and maybe the song doesn't even exist (except in your head), well you've got every chance of finding it! you sure it wasn't a song moyles just made up?

go on, sing it and record it and send us the link we won't judge honest, it's purely for song identification purposes that's the problem I was having, in my head I could do a perfect rendition of that song I was looking for, but the words went 'dum di dum mumble mumble mumble' and googling for that drew a blank

how can you say that when you're surounded by friendly forumites got any more of your song to go on? any lyric searches with those words point at the alice in chains song doh!

Jake is the man! cheers dude

Ok found it! well the one I'm looking for it's by Beck, called 'Cellphone's Dead' lyrics here http://www.metrolyrics.com/lyrics/2147435059/Beck/Cell_Phone's_Dead and on itunes you can preview it to see if it is the one... isn't the internet great and I didn't even think I liked Beck!

hmmm well that might even be the same song? grrrr it's been buggin' me for a while now! raaar!

On the radio recently I've heard this song a couple of times that I've really liked. Think it is a recently released track (last month or two). No idea who it is by but I can describe it a little: It's electronic, kinda downbeat and funky. Has a bouncy squelchy bass line in it. It has vocals, kinda chilled male vocals IIRC and the hook seems to have a female vocal (sounds like it may well be a sample from something else) saying something like "... this time I'll knock you out..." any ideas? I'd really like to get it but it's a touch hard when you don't know the artist or name of the song lol

Well it sounds like it would be worth getting an N/A for a year or two. If you still want a TT after that the best idea is probably to sell up and buy a nice one when you're ready. they can be a bit pricey to run, but it depends how much you use it. It will cost more than your average car to run, even the NA is still 3l

blimey, hope it goes ok then. Most of what we do here is SC, DV is meant to be pretty in depth

well done Sabrina a cool place to work, the moral issues might bother me though lol no camera phones allowed where I work either, I just use a plain old phone (when phones were just phones!) and that is allowed what clearence do you need, are you going to be DV'd?

lol ok but I'd be struggling to care if _you_ actually owned the bike, the fact that it's just someone elses makes it a bit pointless doesn't it? anyway simple, just make the race two up a piece, that'll cripple the bike enough, or just add bends, or rain or etc...

anyone ever notice that with these bragging sessions it's always 'my mate's got an xxx and it's better than your yyy' lol why is it always someone else, probably because it's bullsh1te down the pub everyone 'knows' someone who has a 4000bhp nova than can pull wheelies in 5th gear at 200mph...

blergh at the end of the day it's a friggin bmw and they all suck, at least they are slowly catching up engine wise though

although this thread is in it's dying throws I'll just add that although you can't really compare chalk and cheese, there are some relatively affordable cars that could upset a bike in any real (i.e. not just straight line 1 shot acceleration) test. The Radical SR8 holds the Nerbergring lap record and I'd be shocked if any bike could beat that. I pulls massive lateral G, ways f-all and has good bhp The Ultima GTR is also an amazing car with excellent lateral G, power to weight etc (720 bhp version). Both of these cars, whilst costing more than bikes, are within reach of Joe public, and stock they offer amazing performance. Or you could build a custom special kit car, with that, anything is possible

wtf how did that happen, I'm confused and scared lol - poor bloke!

planks rock, why would you take the p1ss?

grrr

well we have a big team trying to get a project done and there are issues lol plus I find it quite interesting (although taking the test itself is a bit dull) chap at work wanted to retake it, asked if there was an online version and I seem to remember looking before and failing to find one (they all want £ to take it!) PS: I was strong Plant with some Resource Investigator and my natural opposite is probably completer finisher
