Dog hair (one of the stickiest things known to mankind) was responsible for the invention of Velcro ! Source:Wikipedia De Mestral first conceptualized Velcro after returning from a hunting trip with his dog in the Alps in 1941.[3][4][5] After removing several of the burdock burrs (seeds) that kept sticking to his clothes and his dog's fur, he became curious as to how it worked. As previously mentioned burn it with fire !

This has been a very disturbing incident, I call it an incident and not an accident or mass murder as all of the facts are not known yet by the investigators. Firstly I would like to convey deepest sympathies to all who have been affected by this tragedy and our thoughts and prayers are with you. The internet/news channels are awash with speculation as to what happened to the germanwings flight but with only an unprofessional leak from a "senior investigator" as to the contents of the CVR(Cockpit Voice Recorder) any assumption as to the mental state of the FO and subsequent pointing of fingers needs to be refrained from until all of the FACTS are established. Some excellent "light reading" can be found here: http://www.pprune.org/rumours-news/558654-airbus-a320-crashed-southern-france.html These are posts on the Professional Pilots Rumour Network, but don't be fooled by the name real A320 pilots and engineers are posting their thoughts on the incident (admittedly interspersed with a few hacks and people who have no idea) the general concensus seems to be revisions to the door locking procedure needs to be carefully revised for all flights. Edit: you may want to skip the first 50 or so pages of that thread to get to the most recent info regarding the thoughts derived after the leak of the CVR data

Firstly can I start my post by saying that this type of behaviour is disgusting and abhorrent ! I completely agree with the sentiments of all affected BUT: As it stands after reading through the general forum usage section (and I am assuming that the affected individuals supra garages fall under the public album category) It doesn't state anywhere that images uploaded cannot be copied or reproduced without the authors prior permission. (In fairness it doesn't say you CAN either!) but in this type of situation naughty people need to be told NO! Could the powers that be add this kind of clause into the forum rules section at the point of membership acceptance? Obviously careful wording will be required with its inception and the consequences of breaking the rule. However: In this circumstance the ebay advert including the black beast picture has this text in the small print toward the bottom! Returns Policy This Item is Brand New Actual Images of item are shown above Item has been test fitted to ensure perfect fitment NO RETURNS are Accepted for this Listing Unless the Item Arrives Damaged Clear cut case of deception and make the appropriate requests to ebay to get all of the offending adverts pulled as they contravene ebay's own rules and regulations. http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/policies/image-text.html In particular this section:Images and text policy Policy overview What are the guidelines? Reporting a listing Protecting your images using a watermark Additional information Why does eBay have this policy? Policy overview eBay members are not allowed to use images - including photos and other pictures - or text they didn't create themselves. Exceptions to this policy would be if they are authorised to do so by the owner, its agent or the law. As he is not the owner or created it himself he contravenes the rule very clearly and as a minimum will have the affected adverts pulled by ebay. I believe repeat offences results in an account ban Hope that helps! nail him!

Have you considered a caching drive ? quite possibly the best investment i've ever made for my PC the one to go for is the OCZ Synapse 64gb as they're cheap enough (approx 80 quid) and basically turns your 6 gb/s sata drive into an ssd hybrid with some serious performance speeds. Ideal for games and loading levels etc too as they get assigned as hot data onto the drive. more info here: http://www.ocztechnology.com/ocz-synapse-cache-sata-iii-2-5-ssd.html

Why did chuck norris cross the road ? The road fooled around with his sister, in a statement from intensive care the road thoroughly apologises and says it'll never happen again and is grateful Mr Norris "took it easy on him" in the circumstances.

As an ex commercial diver who has used hot water suits on a few occasions I can sympathise fully with his experience ! although I've not had the pleasure of jellyfish being pumped down to me the temperature regulators for water temperature being pumped down to you are iffy at best the inlet in all the suits i've worn have been at the front though, just above the groin area without warning your love spuds feel like they're a boil in the bag uncle bens rice ! happy days

I can't quite tell from your vid as it's dark but have you already connected both of your graphics cards ? If so try just 1 card in the primary slot, as with most BIOS's you have to tell the BIOS to run crossfire/SLI (and at what speeds for each PCI-E slot i.e. x16/x16 ) then shut comp down and restart after installing second card. -
This sounds all too familiar as a laptop fault, if you can get your external monitor to work off your DVI-D and see a bunch of multi coloured lines that look like cross hashing on your start up and then a screen blank when it tries to enter windows proper it's your GFX card overheated I have a removable GFX card in my Dell Inspiron and have had to reflow the solder joints in it about 6-7 times so far with a hot air gun + liquid flux (only do this if you know what you're doing) it usually ends up crapping out after a few weeks/months after a reflow even when it's sat on a laptop cooler. The problem with laptops is they're trying to be desktops nowadays in a confined space and this inevitably leads to overheating problems
