Aren't they called solar stills? I have a feeling that these have been around for a while. They sometimes put them in lifeboats. But I have a feeling that they're going to become increasingly popular...
It's just a mouse! Honestly, my friend's mice were so stupid that when its tail got caught underneath another one (which was sleeping) it tried to chew it off. You're legally allowed to kill mice anyway... and their life expectancy in these research facilities is usually longer than their life expectancy in the wild. Some of them are even kept as pets after the experiments are over. Also there is the fact that they're helping humans (who are way smarter and self-aware), maybe even people you know someday, to have better lives and live longer. So the real question is if you value the life of a human more than a mouse. If you choose the mouse, there is seriously something wrong with you.
I think it's funny that this is from the same paper that published this (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/news.html?in_article_id=439534&in_page_id=1770) story just a few months ago. Shows that lions aren't as cuddly as these pictures might want us to think.
This is a pretty old thing... I remember everyone had a fruit clock about eight years ago... In my experience they worked fairly well, especially with citrus fruits. At least until the acid from the fruit started to corrode the metal prongs.
It's what is known as a "tongue loosener". It was accurately depicted in the 1993 documentary "Robin Hood: Men in Tights" as an instrument of tortue common in Arabic prisons. It is used to pinch the tongue and stretch it, therefore loosening it ready to be used for betrayal of secrets.
I agree with psamanthe. The books were reasonably good but they weren't as good as most people make out. Then again, I did read them when I was a bit older, probably about thirteen or fourteen, so maybe I missed out a little here. I think the actress playing Lyra was a bad choice too.
But I'd like to say to the Christians: so what if it's anti christian? If atheists can watch Chronicles of Narnia (which is pretty much the Bible with animals) and not be bothered, why should Christians have to avoid films like this? Surely you're secure enough in your religion to not be worried by a film like this?
Also, did this remind anyone else of Final Fantasy? The airships, the city in general (kind of like Rabanastre from FFXII) and even the music sounds a bit like Prelud e from FFVII. I'm not complaining though. If you're going to rip something off, you could do a lot worse than Final Fantasy.
This is an average game. I downloaded it with Shockwave Unlimited. It gets better as you progress, but its still pretty repetitive. You have to play through quite a lot of levels to get a sense of any real achievement. And it's way too long. If you like this sort of thing, try Carrie the Caregiver. It's much better.
I had to leave the gamespy forums because nobody even listens to you if you're a girl.

Just something that I know...
Okay I watch Girls of the Playboy mansion obsessively... lol.

Everyone knows ravens don't say "Come on".
They say "Nevermore".
