27%, time to plug in.

So even though Santa doesn't live at OUR north pole...

Wait, what?!

Out of real witches???

It's fascinating how the new world now desires to be just like the old.

The separation of church and state protects the church from the state at least as much as the state from the church. Christians should fear a "Christian" state.

Don't pick it up if you're only down a few HP: save it for later when you can use the full ability.

You can find instructions online for stretches and exercises, but that doesn't hold my interest. I bit the bullet and joined a gym, going a couple of times a week to keep loose. Maybe I could do the stuff I do there at home (after purchasing some equipment), but I think the environment is worth the expense. I don't talk to anyone else except to greet the staff, but I like the fact that other people are around and it's a space dedicated to working out.

How do you know that the plane that just landed is from England? Even when the engines have been shut down, you can still hear the whining.

It's a little bit frightening.

We've seen this movie, haven't we?

Note that you can't see the black hole in this image (an optical HST image). The black hole was identified through microlensing of the object labeled "source", followed by subsequent astrometric observations. The black hole is the lens, which is not seen in these images because it's too faint.

Nature has always been about making money, not about publishing research.

And don't feed it after midnight!

Confirmed.

In the best case, the detection is at the 2.4 sigma confidence level (less than the usual 3 for reasonable confidence and will below the 5 required for strong confidence), and if previously suspected issues with the instrument are true, the detection could disappear completely.

I do not have a strong confidence in this result. (But at least they didn't publish it in Nature, in which case you would absolutely know it's wrong...)

You have to ask yourself the question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?

Boo!

Except that might "prove" to them that you have something to hide.

Looks delicious!

We like to put the tomato over a smear of basil pesto.

You just had to open your ellipsis...
