I think you read it wrong Tom, I meant IF we had American shiz then we wouldn't be able to attack them, hence we don't, cause that would be retarded, but they WOULD be able to do something about our subs if they controlled the missiles on board! James

So an asthetically same look as the Python, which I dont like, and its still got the wings, which I dont like, Bring back the 04 Pitbull, Sam's looks lush, as did Mr Trinders before he went all small on us (to represent his willy :lol:) James :blink:
-
Nadz, thought you'd cracked that Levelboss or something? Or have I just been hearing malicious rumours? James
-
As Im just downloading it is the song FFAF Escape Artists Never Die? Cause if it is, then I love it allready :blink: :lol: engogay is being a looser and megaupload = worse than anything else!
-
So we can't attack America :blink: Think about it, the English government arn't completely retarded, if America controls our missiles then they could detonate/fire them where ever and when ever they wanted! I'm preety sure there is enough friendly fire in America as it is without them bringing us into it! James

Try a sillhouette of a Rose and search William Morris on google images to try and find one of his boarder pieces (its like a black and white floral pattern) looks lush for a card and would show her your softer side, like your fleshy ass I spose... James

Guys Nail Bombs, A bit IRA no? Think its abit of a crude way to go out, that can't be suicide bombing as there is no 100% chance of fatalaty. This would go to suggest that either its some extremist wanabe or just nout to do with last weeks happenings. Thats my opinion anyhoo, feel free to slate me if Im wrong... James

Im saying a bit off the back and alot of thinning out on top, allthough your fringe looks preety thin, might just be cause of the gel crap your using, wet look = bad especially with long hair, you don't need gel the weight should keep it in place! That or get your g-f/mum to straighten it :lol:" Im cool honest... James :blink:
-
What a tune! And nice small file size! Riding was ok, your streetyness is class! Just your trials bits look about as smooth as a preety fine grade of sandpaper (not that bad but still a bit rough) James

If ever I get bored of my rex I think I may just partake in one of these! Shame about the silly high bb though... Isn't 60mm mod stem time? James (Y)

Yep deffonately Craigs 06 PB, thats why it doesn't look like the frame from the site photoshoped REALLY badly onto wheels and forks.... Nice new bubly tyres and all... What was the point in that really? That frame just looks like a smaller Pitbull, which an amazing number of people own, so basicly, a bit normal! They might as well have made a new Zoo for UCI super high bb rather than ruin an allready popular frame, as most people seem to be bitching about high bb's at the moment maybe not the best of ideas? James...

Lefty forks the most brilliant but scary forks! I love that bike to pieces! It looks goregous :- Hope it rides aswell as it should! My mates dad has one :D LUUUUUSH! James :P

Predicting Earthquakes Despite years of research, the use of advanced seismic recording equipment, and the efforts of many dedicated scientists, the task of predicting earthquakes is still, largely, a matter of informed guess work. In the past there have been many earthquakes that led to massive loss of life and property, and they all struck with little or no warning. Japan has probably the most advanced earthquake detection system in the world, yet was caught completely unawares by the Kobe Earthquake of 1995. Predicting quakes means the accurate prediction of earthquakes that will happen soon, rather than at some vague time during the next ten, fifty or hundred years. Long term and general predictions can be made by looking at the earthquake history of an area. It is easy to say for certain that there will be a minor earthquake in California this week, possibly even today, because by looking at the records for the last few decades you can see that there are hundreds of tremors every year; thousands if including the minor ones. This will not tell us when the next major one will occur. There is a good chance that there will be a major earthquake in Mexico during the next 50 years, and that Britain is most unlikely to be hit by a damaging quake in the next two or three hundred years. Such information is useful on a long term scale but of no help when trying to predict the immediate future and save lives and property. Accurate short term predictions are the goal of today's researchers. The Japanese and Americans have invested heavily in computer technology to constantly monitor and analyze seismic activity. Every year over 150,000 earthquakes are recorded world wide. As much detail as possible is gathered from the world wide network of seismometers, which, incidentally, were set up to monitor nuclear testing not earthquakes. Dilatancy Theory Most of the prediction research is centered around the theory of Dilatancy. It has been noticed that when a rock is stressed it begins to expand; to dilate. This is caused by micro-cracks and fractures in the rock opening up and becoming larger. This only seems to start when a rock is roughly half way toward its breaking point. The hope is that patterns of activity can be identified which can be associated with the build up of significant earthquakes. There has been some success with these methods, especially in relation to volcanic eruptions such as that of Mount St.Helens, USA, but accurate predictions are still not possible. Animal Behaviour The Chinese have been looking at how Animal behaviour is affected by an earthquake. It has long been known that animals, birds and insects seem to change their behaviour patterns before an earthquake. In December 1974 Chinese scientists began to receive reports of snakes coming out of hibernation and freezing to death on the cold ground. This activity was followed by a series of minor tremors at the end of the month. During January 1975 they received even more reports of strange animal behaviour. Much of this concerned larger animals such as cattle and horses which had become restless, refused to enter buildings or seemed frightened for no obvious reason. In February that year a major earthquake struck. The epicentre was in Haicheng, the area from which most of the animal reports had been received. It is known that some animals are very sensitive to sound, temperature, touch, light intensity and even magnetic fields, this may explain why the seem able to detect the slight seismic activity before an earthquake. It has been queried that they are sensitive to the electrical and magnetic disturbances which form the basis of the Dilatancy theory . Other prediction methods There are other prediction methods, including religious beliefs and psychic powers. To date, neither of these methods has been able to demonstrate any more success than the more universally accepted scientific methods of observation and measurement. Many of the claimed successes of such techniques have been based on public ignorance and wide generalizations. Anyone can safely predict an earthquake if you know where they occur, and give a wide enough time span. Do we really want accurate predictions? Sufficient warning would allow for the safe evacuation of the population, gas and water supplies could be cut before pipes were ruptured, and emergency services need never be caught by surprise again. This would aid areas such as Kobe or Sumatra in which large numbers of people were effected. It is unlikely that general predictions will ever be more accurate than within a year or two, this time scale serves no purpose when it comes to evacuation and similar precautions. A city cannot be left deserted for years whilst the population waits for an upcoming disaster that may not happen. What would happen to the development of the area during that time? Would business want to invest in something which might be destroyed? Would it be possible to get earthquake insurance when the insurance companies know they will have to pay out, and how many people would want to take out a mortgage on a home likely to be destroyed? It is because of problems like these, and the fear of false alarms making the whole warning system a waste of time, that some people have suggested that warnings should never be released until a totally fail proof system has been developed. Acctually my clipboard... now if someone hadn't made this stupid topic you wouldn't have been bored suffering that... Im with Sameer on this one, hes usually right and look at his avatar!

I think if your going to just pick a bike up and go riding on your tod then BMX is going to be quicker, you just ride down the local park/trails whatever and jump about as much as you want, trials is ride to all local spots, get used to em, get your technique back, get into it, exert loads of effort, etc etc. But maybe Trials is more fun? Don't know! James (Y)

Why megaupload why!? Get an engogay account! Someone upload it please (Y) sounds good! James (Y)

Give you £15 for the rear 2.5 Iolo? It'd be a real help to me as Im running an awful Panaracer Fire FR Pro 2.4... its got so little crip and isn't deep at all! Cheers man (Y) James (Y)

What was that at the beggining? It looked like someone seriously f**ked up... I watched it up till the dog started eating and was just like ALT F4... Its really wierd, kinda freaked me out to be honest! I didn't even see any dude in a wheel chair I dont think... its really messed up!

I think I could be described the same as Tim, I don't smoke ever at home, or at a mates house, but if I go out and start drinking and get offered one I will, just for the social side of it! I've never spent money on fags or anything and I wouldn't arround my family so never will at home etc and so don't really have enough chance to get addicted or anything.
