Ancient West African Megacities

Recent Archeological findings have discovered ancient west African Mega cities dating back to 500 BC possibly rivaling other early urban civilizations such as Mesopotamia. Long before the coming of Islam and the days of the Songhay, Mali and Ghana Empires.

The Archeologists state they have not seen any signs of war & waring, therefore it seems like they lived in relative peace. Some of the cities were twice the size of Timbuktu (Medieval Timbuktu was twice the size of London).

What is most interesting about this information that it emphasizes how little we know of ancient Africa’s past.

Why does this have so few notes.

cause it’s not egypt…. das all folks curr about!

“Fight Club”, dir. David Fincher, 2002

Wake me up before you go-go
Don’t leave me hanging on like a yo-yo
Wake me up before you go-go
I don’t want to miss it when you hit that high
Wake me up before you go-go
‘Cause I’m not plannin’ on going solo
Wake me up before you go-go
Take me dancing tonight
I wanna hit that high (yeah, yeah)

“Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go”, created by Wham!, 1984

Nasa has confirmed that laptops carried to the ISS in July were infected with a virus known as Gammima.AG.
The worm was first detected on Earth in August 2007 and lurks on infected machines waiting to steal login names for popular online games.
Nasa said it was not the first time computer viruses had travelled into space and it was investigating how the machines were infected.

*** so what popular online games are the astronauts playing on the space internet?

INTRODUCING: THE WORLD’S FIRST BULLETPROOF SUIT (via Kempt)

—————————————————— More deets: After months of exhaustively scientific R&D, the gents of Toronto’s Garrison Bespoke have introduced the first-ever three-piece bulletproof suit, and they’re taking orders now. Herewith, a by-the-numbers breakdown of what that means to you: Months spent in development with US Special Forces suppliers: 12 Layers of carbon nanotubes hidden beneath the pinstripes: 7 Length-to-diameter ratio of said nanotubes: 132,000,000:1 Minutes spent Googling what the hell that means: 11 Amount this suit is stronger than steel: 30 times Amount this suit is lighter than Kevlar: 50% Gun calibers now impenetrable: .35, .45, .22 Corporate takeovers: 100% safer Cost of owning one yourself: $20,000 Feeling like James Bond: priceless *** I’ll take one in Klein Blue

So, teratocybernetics raises a point: Carbon Nanotubes are an inhalation hazard: Some info about the potential hazard is here: http://www.safenano.org/Portals/3/SN_Content/Documents/DOWNLOADS/LCA%20-%20Textiles_v2011_Europe.pdf

But more info should be gathered.

None dare call it a Bane mask.
Or suggest that a pollution map for the .01%ers might include teh unwashed.

Mass Effect 2 The Movie, starring Noomi Rapace as Commander Shepard

Perfect gifset is perfect

oh, aye

I am TOTALLY on board with this concept, especially if shaven-headed Portman is in there specifically to portray Jack. Gotta get the same voice actors back for Garrus and Moridin at least, though. And Sheen to play the Illusive Man. Accept no substitutes.

Whoof… This idea… THIS IDEA

We’re like meridians, all beginning and ending in the same place. We spread out from the beginning and go our separate ways, over seas and mountains and islands and deserts, each telling our own story, as different as they could possibly be. But in the end we all converge and our ends are as much the same as our beginnings.
