Why China Saeed?
It is noted that Cyprus has already asked Russia.
Well now I feel like a fraud because I only just found you (some logmitne, loyal reader should really win this!), but hey, I would LOVE to be the proud owner of some of your beautiful artwork, so here I am throwing myself in the hat!Get out there and enjoy the sunshine. As far as I'm concerned this was an excellent post anyhow (obviously particularly if I win!).
Hi. I love your blog and art. It nice that you are so prolific. My dream to be like you is in place - I have wanetd to live in Oregon for a long time, and to be a painter even longer. It would be very nice to own some of your pretty work as well. What an inspiration!
At this point, the Higgs-Boson theory will not stand the test of time, because the Higgs mechanism fails to characterize the far more significant event of transitional (energy-to-mass) failure. The characterization of transitional failure can be equated to the characterization of evil. Since evil has a dual, symbiotic and perhaps even parasitic nature, an independent characterization may be impossible to muster based on human logic.
That's my boy – bs your way into a discussion.
Do you even realize how ignorant you sound?
You better come home and take your pills.
My comment has not been disproven by your remarks. Great debating sklls btw...
Jal, you did not prove anything.
How can I disprove what you have not proven.
Feel free to read and respond to my remarks below...
The Nazi party did not stand the test of time, but Einstiens theories did. Curious...
These time based time invariant functions serve as independent equations. Any scientist will tell you that there never seem to be enough independent equations.
Here is the real explanation of the Higgs-Bosom:
The Higgs boson is a sub-atomic particle that acts as the intermediary between the Higgs field and other particles... This interaction between the field, the boson and other particles is the Higgs mechanism. The precise nature of the mechanism is still being worked out, but it is through its complex interplay of fields and bosons (Higgs and non-Higgs) that particles acquire mass.

Generally speaking, the significance of the Higgs mechanism is inversely proportional to the mass of black holes. Far more significant are the reasons for Higgs failure, at least in most of the galaxies on record. Thomas Edison was far more intrigued by the information gained from the root-cause analysis obtained from a failed light bulb.
Standing the test of time is the essence of a time invariant system.
If our ideas about the Higgs boson turn out to be correct, then everything we see is a kind of window dressing based on an underlying fabric of reality in which we shouldn't exist. The particles that make us up – which bind together to form protons, neutrons, nuclei and ultimately atoms – have mass. Without the Higgs, these particles would be massless, like photons.
We don’t need to use the Higgs mechanism to resolve the mass -> energy transition, as Einstein already resolved this though General Relativity and E=MCsq. We need resolution on how in-the-heck mass gets out of a black hole (in proof form). The way forward is to understand why we are looking at our own 4.1million solar mass, super massive black hole in SagA and why/how our mass escaped, and how/why most didn’t. Dont let them muddy the water. Demand concise theory that people can grasp.
re: old age population expansions. Not to worry. As the retiree population percentage gets larger, so will computer controlled automation reducing the demand for ever more labor to support us all. It will eventually enable the entire pooulation to retire at a much earlier age.
In general, a unique frame reference is defined by the observer’s mass. Also, any time-based observation/function (including mass/energy functions) should always be treated as the equivalent of the inverse LaPlace transform of the true characteristic function. That being said, we observe black holes based on our locked reference frame. Graphically, x and y on a log scale, drop your finger to any spot on the graph for a cross-referenced unique frame of reference for observing our universe.
Oops, these cross referenced interactions are known as bode plots.
A. Einstein: "Coincidence is Gods way of remaining anonymous "
There is a difference between proving and understanding. In the realm of scientific thought, much has been proven, but less has been understood. Einstein understood many of the theories he presented, as they were presented (especially in 1905) with a certain aesthetic in mind, to paint an even better understanding. I am always in awe of his Annus Mirabilis papers, because together they explain so well. What is out there, what it is truly capable of, where we reside with respect to it and what can we do to help ourselves from it.
I hope that Cyprous will have better luck than us Greeks.Today this morning in daylight berglers broke into my building and they robbe the people dawnstairs.The rate of crime has been highup.
It is a two storie building.

The sketch is tasteful, your authored material stylish. nonetheless, you command get got an shakiness over that you would like be delivering the following. sick no doubt come further formerly once more since precisely the similar nearly very ceaselessly inside case you shield this increase.
