Gwiz665 = Gold 100, now performing miracles 6 nights a week (Woohoo Talk Post)
Well, the Muhammad cartoons came out of Denmark recently, so Legos isn't the only good thing it's churned out in the past century No wonder, overall it's one of the best countries in the world.

Gwiz665, my Northern-European neighbor, have I ever told you how much your commentary resembles the musings of my brother-in-law from København? It's witty, well-informed, at times quirky, but overall very much like mine. I shit you not. Anyway, TILLYKKE-well deserved, keep up the good work!

Also NB! I take GREAT offense on kronosposeidon for failure to notify me about this glorious achievement of my European mate via profile message, you lazy monkey you.

OMG THE HADRON COLLIDER IS TURNED ON!!!
^ CONCERNING STRANGELETS:

First of all, strangelets are merely hypothetical type of matter. None have so far been observed or produced.

Secondly, the RHIC (Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider) in the US has been working for 8 years now and no strangelets have been produced there. In comparison, LHC collisions will have more energy, thus making it even less probable a strangelet might form (equivalent would be ice forming in boiling water). In addition, LHC quarks will be even more dilute than at RHIC.

Read this study on RHIC by MIT, Yale and Princeton physicists to find out more.

I read motel reviews on the internet for entertainment. (Geek Talk Post)
Ryjkyj, those reviews are awesome

But I don't understand, Bill, doesn't your girlfriend nag on you for spending time like that? I mean, there's some things worth procrastinating over, but..

Wait. OK, nevermind.

OMG THE HADRON COLLIDER IS TURNED ON!!!
^ Those collisions planned at LHC have no - that's ZERO, NIL, NONE, NOUGHT, NADA, ZIP - risk of creating micro black holes unless one supplements the standard model of particle physics with several extensions that factor in the possibility of extra spatial dimensions which these micro black holes might originate from. And even then those very same extensions lead one to conclude that the decay on those mbhs due to Hawking radiation would have them existing (and not in a manner in which they can do ANY harm) for a matter of seconds at the outside.

So whoever made this video - DIAF. That's right - you should die in a freaking fire for attempting to induce mass hysteria based on your complete fucking ignorance.

Yeah I said the same some 5 months ago. Now look at me.

Seriously, it would be very neat if you really got gold with more star comments than videos, I don't think anyone's done it before. Your bronze may even be precedent. This just shows you're a great addition to the community. I'm just nagging on you about the number of videos posted because submitting them compels one to spend more time here. And I'd like if you did just that

In reply to this comment by dannym3141:
I sift what i think is siftworthy! I don't believe in posting music videos just to get stars *cough cough*

And thanks!

In reply to this comment by EDD:
I see you got your first star - way to go. keep it up! Only be honest with me, now - are you really aiming to get your gold with more comment stars than videos sifted?

Jesus lives in my sink

That is literally, word for word what I was going to say. I guess great minds think alike. Either that, or you're my sock-puppet, kulpims

Kulpims gets his diamond; Dag and Lucky go broke (Drugs Talk Post)
Seriously, somebody should bring up some STATS (dag, lucky maybe?)- I'm fairly certain kulpims is the guy with the greatest Long to normal length videos ratio here. That's just one indication of you sifting stuff of high quality.

Hey for me, you're up there with Farhad. Like I said when you got your Gold 100 (and that was only 3 months ago) - Eastern Europe's taking over the Sift. Good thing, too; judging by the quality of your posts nobody could ever complain.

You're a true inspiration and a VS role model. And one of the guys I hope to meet IRL one day (yeah, I know it's my fault I didn't already this year, sorry for that). I'm still so buying you beer/weed whenever that finally happens

P.S. Also, BIG tanks thanks for being the only Sifter who showed some integrity and a sense of fellowship by simply joining my VS last.fm group. Thanks for not letting me look like a pathetic loser who can't even boast having imaginary friends on the internet.

Code Pink protester Hit with Baton: BOOM HEADSHOT!
"Last night at approximately 7:30pm I was arrested as part of a mass arrest at 15th & Court and charged with disrupting a permitted assembly and blocking public streets. A third charge - throwing rocks and missiles - was listed on my pre-printed ticket, but then crossed out.

At the time I was not protesting. I was acting as an observer for the People's Law Project, and was dressed in a button shirt and a neon-green baseball cap stating that I was acting as a representative of the National Lawyers Guild. I followed the protestors out of Civic Center Park, but remained on the sidewalk until pushed by riot police into the street. At no time during the abortive march did any legal observer, or any marcher that I have spoken to, observe any destruction of property, any thrown objects, or ANY ORDER TO DISPERSE BY THE POLICE.

At some point during my visit to Gitmo on the Platte, the compact flash card I had been carrying that contained photographic documentation of the protest disappeared. This included pictures of the badges of some of the officers involved, images of a marcher OBEYING police orders being shot with pepper spray point-blank in the eyes while trying to retreat (when I was hauled away he was sitting with a street medic, and I could hear him sobbing again and again, "I can't see..."), and photographs of a second protestor who was shot three times by what appeared to be three separate officers with bean-bag guns while KNEELING, motionless, 15 FEET AWAY, hands outstretched as if in prayer, and wearing nothing but a pair of POCKETLESS shorts."

-Nathan Acks' experience. Read full story here.
