Cool balls!

Where do I get some of those?

No, really. Those models are very nice to look at, especially the ones
representing the inner planets. I'd love to have some.

They're computer renderings,

They're computer renderings, man.  If you really wanted you could get them prototyped... but I think that would be a bit more expensive than, say, a simple globe. :P

I still want those balls.

I suspected they'd be computer renderings. Still, you can't deny they'd be AWESOME as billiards or pool balls. :-)

3d

Yeah, they are rendered, it's easy to see... but still, it would be awesome to have a set like this to play pool.

So we either have the Sun as a ball the size of the house, or the Pluto ball a speck of dust...At first I thought that was a dumb idea, but the more I think of it the more I want it.

Your wow power leveling adventure in Iysa begins in the city of wow powerleveling Roumen. This quaint town will be your home base until around powerleveling level 20. Begin your adventure by talking to Elemental Helper Remi and get your first power leveling quest! She will give you a few instructions and then send you to Healer Julia. To locate NPCs (non-player characters) on the map, press the M button. Healer Julia is just up the wow power level steps to the right.

Once you talk with Julia wow powerlevel, she will tell you all about HP (health points - red) and SP (spirit points - blue) stones. These are used to refill your wow powerleveling health and spirit when they get low wow power leveling. You receive a few free stones from Julia when you start your adventure in Isya and can always buy more wow power leveln from her. Julia will also give you your first wow powerleveln quest – a monster hunt to kill Slimes and Mushrooms. They can be found in the forest at the edge of fiesta online town.

TIP
Before you battle fiesta online, check out your character stats. Hit “C” or click the Character icon in the bottom right corner of the fiesta online gold screen. You will see the following character attributes:

STR (strength) – helps melee attacks and defense last chaos
DEX (dexterity) – increases ranged damage, chance to dodge attacks, and lastchaos attack speed
END (endurance) – increases hit points
INT (intelligence) – increases magic damage and last chaos gold resistance
SPR (spirit) – increases spirit points, chance to critical hit and spell metin2 cooldown

Your metin2 yang character begins the game with one free stat point and will receive an additional stat point for every increase in lastchaos gold level.

Equip your last chaos gold weapon and get ready to help save Isya! Hit the “I” key or click the Inventory icon in the lower right portion of the lastchaos gold screen. Your weapon will be in your inventory; right-click to equip fly for fun. To attack a flyff penya monster, double click on it. Mages start with an additional skill – the magic missile spell in their dofus skill bar. Select a monster and right-click on a spell or skill to use dofus kamas. Slain monsters often will drop items, so be sure to pick them up! Some are valuable Warhammer Online gold and you can sell them to other players or NPCs.

If you get low dofus on life, use an HP stone by hitting the “Q” key or an SP stone by hitting “E”. You can also assign dofus kamas to your quick bar skills by opening your skills window, clicking on dragging Warhammer Online to the quick bar of your choice.

Keep all the NosTale gold Summoned Beast Leather you find! These are valuable early in the game and can be sold to other players. A lot of the NosTale gold you will find while fighting enemies can also be used for crafting NosTale items later in the game. You can choose up to two crafting professions. Keep the items you find that relate to your chosen crafting professions, and sell the rest to make atlantica online gold. For instance, keep the ones related to potions and scrolls, but sell the ones relating to stones.

I would imagine that it's hard to keep the sun

You may want to think again about getting this kind of model. You will simply not have a way of storing the sun! Pluto diameter is 2274 kilometers (1410 miles) Sun siameter is 1.4 million kilometers (870,000 miles) That means the sun is 616 times bigger than pluto in diameter. So if you get this and pluto is just 1cm in diameter. The sun is more than 6 meters. That's two stories high !

wallpaper

I sure would like a nice high resolution wall paper version of these models... they're very cool.

Yet, a significant segment

Yet, a significant segment of hummanity thinks that WE are actually causing global warming, and not natural fluctuations of both our planet and the huge ball of fire at the centre.

Yet from this, I'd say the world is also flat

You're an idiot. It's basically been proven that humans have caused global warming and global dimming. Never, in all the history of the earth that we've uncovered, has the earth undergone such a dramatic change in temperature AND reduction in sunlight. And it's all happened since the industrial revolution. Think that's just a strange coincidence? If so, go on and continue believing the world is flat too. It's unfortunate we can't just put all you idiots on one side of the world and let you continue to fuck it up and kill yourselves while the rest of us try and restore the damage so that our children have a comfortably habitable world to enjoy.

Newsflash

Sun warms Earth.

(Just try living with out it Mr. humans-have-caused-global-warming.)

My biggest worry about global warming is the possible return of dinosaurs. How will I get my SUV down the interstate with those babies around?

 

SUV emissions amplify sun

Environmentalists don't dispute the fact that the sun is essential to life. It's what we are relentlessly pumping into the environment - our very own biosphere - that is of concern.

Would you drink from a stream that you (or your neighbour) just pissed in?

Your obviously a funny person; maybe even popular at your primary school, so you can take what I say with a grain of salt. One thing I can guarantee you is that you won't be around to enjoy your SUV if the current trends continue.

SUV

Compensating?

No, I'd say you are the misinformed one

Human influenced climate change (the term used by climatologists) is at best a working hypothesis.

Nothing either way has been proven, or is even tested enough to be considered a theory. For one thing there is simply not enough good evidence. And, for another the time spans we are trying to measure are far too short for us to say with any credibility "Never, in all the history of the earth that we've uncovered, has the earth undergone such a dramatic change in temperature AND reduction in sunlight."

We know for sure, that in the past the Earth has been both much warmer and much cooler while still supporting mammalian life. Even 800 years ago we have recorded European weather conditions from Morocco to Scotland which indicate a much warmer climate for decades.

Another term to introduce is "abrupt climate change." Climatologically speaking an abrupt climate change is the difference of feet of ocean and hundreds of miles of glacial activity. In paleological terms these abrupt changes happen in the blink of an eye, like tens of thousands of years.

Agriculture society is only about 10,000 years old and real city building didn't happen for another couple of thousand years after that.

So, in climate terms, we don't have a long enough yardstick to see if humanity has affected it one way or another.

Finally, to put things in perspective, in 1883, Krakatoa exploded, ejecting over six cubic miles of solid debris into the air. At the same time, it release more ozone depleting gases and more greenhouse gases, than mankind has breathed, belched, farted, burned, husbanded and manufactured in the last 2.5 million years. We are smaller compared to the Earth, than the prairie dog population is to the state of Texas. And, we have a smaller ecological foot print.

Now, it could be argued that prairie dogs could doom the entire state of Texas to unsteady soil. But, in the same amount of time, they could develop written language, culture and technology.

Hey, an intelligent response, but...

There are couple points to add.

While human caused global warming is a theory, the physics do add up. Green house gasses do heat the earth, and humans have contributed a significant amount them.

Also, a volcanic eruption isn't quit the same as contuous carbon dioxide emissions. The net effect of that volcano eruption was lowered global temps by about 1.2 degreed Celcius. Yet the current greenhouse gases are causing a net global warming.

Personally, I don't think it wise to assume our actions are NOT detrimental. While we may be comparitive to prairie dogs in Texas, we produce a LOT more toxic waste in comparison. You shouldn't use a bio-mass comparison, unless both produce proportionatly equivalent ammounts of greenhouse gases, ozone-depleting gases, non-biologically degradable waste, etc.

The ancient egyptians left us the pyriamids, what are we going to leave, mountains of diapers?

But, 10k years ago . . .

But, 10,000 years ago, we were barely leaving a trace.  An occasional cave painting, or a rock axe.  The point was what would prairie dogs do in 10,000 years.

And, truth be told, the argument is farsical.  But, given another 10,000 years very little trace will be left of us.  It took a lot (some would say monumental) effort to create monuments that could last thousands of years. Even the most toxic mines (think mercury to mine gold and arsenic as waste) of two hundred years ago here in the US are already being reclaimed by nature.  The recovery rates for some of the most terrible disasters of ecology are truly amazing (think love canal and Chernobyl).

And, by now, finding the evidence of a 3000 year old, formally toxic mine in Egypt would be a find of major archaeological significance.

I believe we consistently underestimate Mother Nature's ability to reclaim what is rightfully her's. 

An Inconvenient Truth

Despite your articulate presentation, there are an overwhelming set of facts and theories that compel the adoption of the hypothesis that human beings are the largest single contributing factor to the clearly observeable trend of global warming.

I realise this may be "An Inconvenient Truth" for you to embrace, nevertheless inconvenience has never been a legitimate consideration in declaring something true, reliable, reasonable, correct, right, etc.

You don't have to like it, but your dislike of the truth is utterly irrelevant to the facts of the matter.

I Hope your read this Mr. flat world don't know shit!

I don't usually comment on the stuff I read, most comments are boorish drivel anyway such as the one "Mr. Flat world" made. Only a supreme shitass would make such a comment as that. If perchance, humans are to blame, wouldn't that make you just as guilty as your neighbor? And hey, your neighbor could also be another country too! Of course, if you've lived your entire life in a cave and gathered berries then you a probably not guilty and within your rights to make such a comment. On the other hand, If you have used even one product of the industrial revolution then, moron, you are in the same boat. So running your shithole mouth is a useless as pissing on the ground. But if your living in a cave.....but wai you own or have access to a computer, so your obviously as guilty as anyone else. Why not spend your time doing instead of bitching. But then, if your from the side of the world I suspect your from, that's all you "people" know how to do. Oh, btw, do you know where the industrial revolution started? Look it up. It's too bad the world isn't flat, then people like you could just walk of the edge and we'd all be done with you. My God the world is full of stupid people. Also, after we've (all) killed ourselves off, the world will begin it's own healing process and over time it'll be brand spanking new. All ready for another bunch to do the same thing until the sun supernova's. good bye cruel world, good bye, good bye......................................

I hope this pisses you off so we can all read more of your stupidity. 

Idiots Calling People Morons

Useless as pissing on the ground? That's the most useless analogy I've ever had the misfortune of reading/hearing.

Also...calling people morons, and whining about stupidity, is not really the most intelligent thing to do when your own post is full of bad spelling and grammer.

The word is YOU'RE...short for "you are". Not YOUR. As in YOU'RE a fucking cocksmoker. As opposed to YOUR boyfriend's cock is lodged in your ass.

So what kind of "people" does that make you? A hypocritical homosexual...and YOU'RE correct. The world is full of stupid people. Do us a favor, kill yourself and help get rid of at least one of them.

Ha, new I'd piss you off.

I retract my former statement "useless as pissing on the ground". Pissing on the ground does provide a use by recycling water. So this was an incorrect analogy. Now as to my spelling and grammer....I apologize but you obviously could make it out and I'm not writing a thesis today. For the remainder of your statement, I rest my case. The world is full of stupid people and you, pal, are right in amongst them. Oh, and it hurts me ;- ) that you think I'm homosexual, cause I hope your not crusing for a piece of ass. If this be the case you might want to chat with Flat Man; unless you are Flat Man which means you would have to Go Fuck Yourself!

(Ha, new I'd piss you off)....not worth a come back?

this is so coool...............people get pissed then watch the flames.

:P 

Since you've mentioned

Erm... Grammar.

This is serious

I hope we all live, so that humans may still enjoy the above.  I too, was stunned by the "pissing on the ground" analogy.

wow gold

grammer???

Kelsey Grammer??? His wife is hot. Oh Camille, how I would like to touch Uranus.

Hypocrisy

Grammar. It's spelled 'grammar.' If you can't spell it yourself, don't sit there with a red pen and correct someone else.

And don't bother lowering yourself to another person's standards to make rude insults. That's so highly immature of you.

GROW up.

What!? Huh!?

While the previous post was no work of genius, this response was laughable. Where was the claim the poster was denying some repsonsibility? You are simply jumping to some rediculous conclusion as some proclamation of both his idiocy and incorrectness. What, so you have some more words to sprinkle in between the name-calling? AND you pulled out the "Why don't you do something instead of posting" beauty. Yeah, that hasn't been played out. Just in case you missed it, that type of response is usually categorized as pathetic. The truth is, that while there have been natural fluctuations in green house gasses in the past, there indeed is evidence that humans have significanly contributed to current levels. Though I am guessing thourough research isn't your forte? While it is easy to accept the logic that human-caused global impact is just grandized selfishness, it is ignorant and foolish to ignore all the evidence stating otherwise.

oh...the EPA said it...so it MUST be true...

I'm not saying I agree/disagree...I'm saying that I would take anything told to me by any current government agency with a grain of salt....especially under this administration.

Also, as a physicist, obtaining accurate measurements (even ones as seemingly simple as temerature readings) is not what one should consider trivial. In that light I have to argue that the evidence we do have is inconclusive at best since we don't have any reliable data of any significance in what can be considered an appropriate geological time frame.

And BTW your insults are REALLY REALLY lame... Mr. Flat world?....hahahaha...get a job, fag....

no, you're an idiot...

If humans soley cause global warming, what started and ended the ice age?  Was it your monkey ancestors driving their SUV's?  No.  We contribute, not cause by any means.  Wake up.

Never have we had such a dramatic change???

Never?? Never have we had such a dramatic change??? Not sure, but I'm sure I heard something about an 'ICE AGE'. Could have been just an animated flick, but I'm pretty sure something happened that was pretty cold. Now, when I look around, I don't see the planet covered in ice. And I'm pretty sure that it didn't all melt since the industrial revolution.

My real fear is that people that want other's to die, purely based on a difference of opinion are allowed to have children.

Want a better world -- please masturbate -- don't procreate.

Here's why YOU are an idiot.

Ok, so if its dramatic tempurature changes you're lookin for, there was this thing a few years back call the ice age. There is also the fact that the vast majority of the earth was of a tropical climate, well before the ice age ( that includes :what is now Canada and most of Greenland). Now, as for your feeble attempt to blame industry for all our global misfortune, it's all to easy to blame the first thing that's spewing smoke from a chimeny. But I'm sure if you think really hard, you can think of another object that used to blow smoke all over the place ( I'll give you a hint it rhymes with schmolcano). And believe me they were everywhere. So in summary, I'd say first of all, you need to stop getting your scientific info from pot smokin hippies, and then you can join all the other idiots on the other side of the world. Oh and wrap your mind around this speedy: Gravity is not a law it's a theory. Just a little something to think about. Have a nice life

You seem in denial

You have your head buried in the sand if you don't. It has been proven that we influence our environment. You ever stood next to a car exhaust with it's engine running? You ever notice how noxious and bad it smells? Well guess what... that goes into the air - I'm not kidding - into the air!! This particulate matter is sizeable enough to reflect inbound light (global dimming) and also outbound light and heat (global warming). Now multiply that by a few billion and growing - remembering that some vehicles burn fuel quicker.

This is only one facet of the problem of our dependence on fossil fuels. Power stations burn immense amounts of fuel so you can have all the conviniences you wish for. Now that China and India (two of the most populous countries on the planet) are just entering their industrial peak we can expect to see a sharp increase in the energy requirements for those countries. Can the Earth's atmosphere withstand this stress? In my opinion, no.

I work as an environmental scientist and I can say our future is bleak if we keep burning fossil fuels. Some colleagues say we have a time window in which to fix the problem although judging from what I've seen I think we have already passed it. We have been warned over and over yet people with a fixation on themselves seem to miss the point time and again. We need to change, yesterday.

You can argue that "there is no evidence" or "it's the natural carbon/water cycle" or "the environment controls temperature fluctuations" but at the end of the day, wouldn't it be logical to err on the side of caution, rather than not?
