It's always confused me a bit the defining line between the two regiments? Obviously the SAS are predominantly an Army Regiment and the SBS are within the RMs I believe, yet the SAS have boat troops and the SBS have seen plenty of non amphibious action in Afghanistan for instance. Confusing me still we now have two more special forces regiments, the Special Reconnaissance Regiment and the Special Forces Support Group. I understand the SFSG are just taking on the speacialist role the RMs and Paras etc used to do but surely the SRR are just doing what the SAS do in intelligence gathering? Wh

haha.....some guns find it hard to do the "move up 2" system so making it more difficult seems strange. If they would just remember there own number instead of trying to remember everybodys they would find it a piece of piss!.... One of the great wonders of the driven shoot........... why guns can't count and why beaters can't walk in a line...........

Wind is normal here, but lots of localised flooding.

I don't even know where to start with that........... probably best I don't..... My lack of intelligence would probably let me down and damage my over inflated ego.

Happy thanksgiving to all you yanks. We don't really have anything like that but enjoy.

Read it on BBC earlier. It's bloody awfull. I can only guess that the family thought the dog was alright with the baby. Why on earth you would let a week old baby anywhere near a terrier though is beyond me.

Why do 3 numbers go vertical and 3 horizontal? And which numbers represent which drive? I'm assuming the mornings drives go down and the afternoons drives go across, moving up by 4 each drive? Got to be honest, if I was given that I would be a bit confused at first. I would probably favour a more intuitive design, something really straightforward so there is absolutely no confusion. I think you could sell them if made from a thin plastic or engraved/stamped brass and come with a nice leather wallet to hold them (price wise I would think that should fetch around £100 mark). But they don't a

I see your point Malt, I don't play games so I need this fix through a decent film. I went to see Battleship (with Rhiana in ) hoping for somthing decent, it was average at best. Always have to have aliens in these sorta films, be much better without fecking aliens! Something like a fictional plot about a build up and eventual battle between Nato and a Russian/Chinese/North Korean alliance.

Independence Day.................. Based on a true story yet to happen.... Is there actually a modern day military film that has some seriously cool modern hardware and battle scenes in it? Like Transformers but with a more realistic plot? There has to be an opening for a big buget epic war film like that at the moment. I want Naval Battlegroups, F22 raptor dog fights, Ospreys, nuclear armed B2s, special forces etc etc. A big buget film with all that that doesn't involve aliens would be awsum! FACT! Edited; They could call it WW3! And it could start in Israel.... lol

You will surely, they're a tough breed!

Will you accept handicaps?................................ for instance I'll probably need a bat? Seriously though, I've been messing about with a bit of kickboxing for a few weeks now through a friend but no way ready to step into a ring. Hope to one day though. I think it's a good idea but gonna take some organising, ffs it's hard enough to organise a hunting competition, never mind a fight night. All the best with it.

Dunno about brainy but I do have quite a bit of curiosity about me. I sort of need to understand things, at least to a certain level. Fucks with my head if I have an unaswered question. I'm quite happy to just be able to understand what great minds are trying to explain, it's a different thing all together writing these laws and discovering the unknown. Fecking staggers me! I'm the exact same with films...if i start watching one and i realise that one of the actors have been in another film i watched recently i cant concentrate till i get it.......... Yep! I've got a friend that knows

Yes, that's correct. It's known as conservation of energy, just one of the many conservation laws of this universe. The first law of thermodynamics describes this (I had to look that up, ). It's the reason a perpetual motion machine is a myth.

First link I found http://www.futureofmankind.co.uk/meier/gaiaguys/georgegreen.htm There's no such thing as free energy mate.

I'm a Physicist in the loose sense of the term. I work for a large American oil services company in R&D. The area I work in essentially makes stuff that finds hydrocarbons and to a lesser extent minerals like Iron ore. It's not particularly exciting but I suppose it's a good starting point on for my career. I would like to go into more purist research but that doesn't pay the bills quite so well and tbh there's a lot better minds out there than mine.

Sorry, I can't see the vid. Didn't realise what you were on about. Can you give me a name so I can google it?

I'll have a read. Just to clarify about my statement "If they have produced something that's output energy is greater than it's input, they have created a perpetual motion machine!". It was specifically about the air+water to get a hydrocarbon to run an engine on because when the hydrocarbon is burnt it gives CO2 and H2O again (which were the initial reactance). You would in this case be creating energy from absolutely nothing. Even at 100% efficiency (which is near impossible and certainly impractical) it would only produce an equal amount of usable energy as what it took to make. Obv

Go on then...... enlighten us?

Malt, funny you should say that. I was literally just having this conversation with a colleague and he was telling me the same. It's a French project I believe. That right there is the future! One day every city will have a doughnut shaped mini star powering it, I really do believe that. As for the rest of you mocking b*****ds....................

That fella's tapped! I think it's Balotelli that pulled up to the pumps and told everybody to fill their tanks it's on him and also drove into a womens prison in Italy for a look around.

Since the end of the cold war we aren't as important to them stretegically but we are still close allies. Some Presidents think more of us than others I'll admit, lol. Nonetheless, I would rather 'ourside' call the shots regards nuclear weapons.
-
100% yes, I would bet my life on it, because otherwise they have found the holy grail of physics and broken thermodynamics! If they have produced something that's output energy is greater than it's input, they have created a perpetual motion machine!
-
It's a great technology and could really take off.................but, as with fuel cells or hydrogen gas it still comes down to the same old problem; "where do we get the energy from to do this on a world wide scale?". Once we develop a real alternative to hydrocarbon fueled power stations these technologies can take off........... Untill then they are limited by how much renewable energy we can produce.
-
Interesting but I would think that the science to do this has been about for a while, just took a bunch of engineers to actually do it. But there has to be a catch, at this stage I would hazard a guess that it's bloody expensive and not cost effective compared to conventional means of producing hydrocarbon based fuels. Their selling point being carbon neutral. See what the future holds for them..... might be common place in 50 years....
