Title: The Official 1up Picture Thread - Awesome pictures go here
Post by: Gemma on November 17, 2010, 11:55:56 AM
Couldn't figure out where to dump this, so I made a new thread. Maybe it'll even get a sticky someday! I spend alot of time on google image.
these are 18lb shell casings. (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c8/Dump_of_18_pounder_shell_cases.jpg)

I'm not sure, I didn't really read the article from which it came, but my guess is this is a WWII picture. These are the empty casings from very very large artillery guns. They called this 'shelling' cities. It was what they did before they had bombers that could carry large payloads.

The image looks like any other aerial photograph I know, but I did some photo manipulation to get it to look so clean. Otherwise the original image had a wing in it. Which is this image here.
last sentance may or may not be true. it all depends on what theory you believe in. though the most popular ones believe their is an end, but its getting further and further away all the time as the universe expands. at which point it would reach a critical point and start shrinking again and once at the smallest.....big bang

Guy Fakes Mexican Accent for an Entire College Semester, Wins Troll Points (http://www.webpronews.com/guy-fakes-mexican-accent-for-an-entire-college-semester-wins-troll-points-2012-11)
Quote
I think I took Speech 101 back in college. You probably did too. It’s the kind of class that’s required by many majors at most universities – the kind of class that you probably bemoan waking up for every morning, but ends up being a fairly easy credit at the end of the day. I don’t know, maybe my Speech 101 class just sucked.
Jose Barrientos decided to make his low-level course more exciting by pulling an elaborate prank on his classmates. For months, Jose spoke in a “mexican” accent. He even gave all of his required speeches in said accent.
The only thing is that Jose doesn’t really have any such accent. What he does have is patience and dedication to the joke. Check out the prank (complete with the big reveal and reaction) below:

i like the google street view myself. when i need to find a place i have never gone, i can see the location before i go. makes things easier. of course there are going to be people naked seen. BUT if they dont want to be seen naked on the internet, why are they naked in public? its basically the same. the rest of the information though interested me....i am wondering though, i wonder what % of the people who have posted their address, as well as times they went out were combined. and of that %, how many were robbed....that would be an interesting stat i think. and i love how an entire city removed themselves from google street view, lol.

Well the only comment I have is I had no clue who Ariana Grande (https://duckduckgo.com/?q=Ariana+Grande) was, so I had to use a search engine. I then looked around for the identical image you altered, and I can say she does look better with natural colored hair, you did a good job.

I know she looks better with the natural color of her hair so I repeat! I just wanted to know how she look with another color of hair, I never said he looks better with orange hair so I think your comment is unnecessary..

I never said I was offended I just think the comment ''He looks better with he natural color of hair'' was unnecesary because I know it, I requested a comment About my work not about his natural color. I just said that.
Your offense and everything else don't matter me in absolutely.

5 January 2015: The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has captured the sharpest and biggest image ever taken of the Andromeda galaxy — otherwise known as Messier 31. The enormous image is the biggest Hubble image ever released and shows over 100 million stars and thousands of star clusters embedded in a section of the galaxy’s pancake-shaped disc stretching across over 40 000 light-years.
This image is too large to be easily displayed at full resolution and is best appreciated using the zoom tool (http://www.spacetelescope.org/images/heic1502a/zoomable/).

This trick is one of the most common tricks taught in UIL Number Sense (If you're interested) Just thought I would tell you just in case you wanted to look up some more advanced Number Sense tricks.
For example any number ending in 5 squared (such as x5) becomes (x*(x+1))25 15*15=(1*2)25, 225 25*25=(2*3)25, 625 55*55=(5*6)25, 3025
Another common useful trick is the eleven's trick, for example 25x11 is 2(2+5)5, or 275 You write the right-most digit then start going left adding the digits two at a time so 45234x11 is 4(4+5)(5+2)(2+3)(3+4)4 or 497574
Apologies for going overboard I am just an avid competitor of Number Sense :P

This trick is one of the most common tricks taught in UIL Number Sense (If you're interested) Just thought I would tell you just in case you wanted to look up some more advanced Number Sense tricks.
Wrong 45x34 and all those inbetween numbers
Assuming You're talking about the near 100's trick, no it works by definition. (100-x)(100-y), FOIL it out 10000-100x-100y-xy 10000-100(x+y)-xy (Association) This is what the trick does
So even though it is not efficient for 45x34 it still works You get reference numbers of 55 and 66, their sum is 121 100-121=-21 (and we add two 0s since it is to go in the hundreds place), so -2100 55*66=3630 -2100+3630=1530 which is 45x34.
This trick is only beneficial when used in numbers 10+/- of 100, or else you start jumping into more 2 digit mult. Though it should work on any multiplication.

Voila, the ZF-1. It's light; handle's adjustable for easy carrying; good for righties and lefties; breaks down into four parts; undetectable by X-ray; ideal for quick discreet interventions.
A word on firepower. Titanium recharger; 3000-round clip with bursts of 3 to 300. With the replay button, another Zorg invention, it's even easier. One shot... ...and replay sends every following shot to the same location. And to finish the job, all the Zorg oldies but goldies. Rocket launcher. Arrow launcher with exploding or poisonous gas heads, very practical. Our famous net launcher. The always-efficient flamethrower, my favorite. And for the grand finale, the all-new 'Ice-cube System'.

The internet was supposed to revolutionize our lives, and it has, to a point. It was supposed to make things easier and bring people around the globe closer together. Easier? Somewhat. Closer together? Yeah, not so much. Maybe it was too much too soon. Maybe people weren’t meant to wield so much digital power. Either way, it’s fun to look back at the simpler times (http://thechive.com/2018/01/11/life-before-the-internet-was-so-much-simpler/).
