Why do Dutch people have funny names?
Просмотров 13 тыс.2 года назад
Follow Doctor “Lazy Person”, aka my wife, on Twitter: Dr_leeggangers As a native English speaker living in the Netherlands, I’ve come across some unusual (for me) names. Some Dutch surnames are indeed rather amusing, or even insulting! So much so that a legend has formed around their origin; that these names were adopted in 1810 when Napoleon Bonaparte annexed Holland and forced the...
How New Zealand became Nuclear-Free
Просмотров 17 тыс.2 года назад
Check out the other #ProjectMAD videos: ruclips.net/p/PLjnwpaclU4wXW18I7joPDPXmfL1zepBNv In 1987, the New Zealand parliament passed the “New Zealand Nuclear Free Zone, Disarmament, and Arms Control Act” writing into law that New Zealand would be Nuclear-Free. This was the last act in a series of events where being anti-nuclear increasingly became part of the Kiwi identity, so how did New Zealan...
The Libertarian Utopia That Almost Caused A War
Просмотров 17 тыс.3 года назад
Located hundreds of kilometres south of Fiji and Tonga in the Minerva Reefs are almost relevant. However, in 1971, a group of ambitious American libertarians attempted to form their own micronation on the sunken atoll. The Republic of Minerva would have been a libertarian utopia; with no taxes or government intervention of any kind. Fortunately (unless you’re a right-wing libertarian) the plans...
Why the New Zealand Cannabis Referendum Failed.

Alongside the recent New Zealand Election, Kiwis were asked two additional questions. One on whether euthanasia should be legal, and the other on making recreational cannabis legal. While the euthanasia referendum received a resounding yes from voters, the cannabis referendum was narrowly defeated, meaning that cannabis use will remain a criminal offence in New Zealand. But given how close this...

The One Nation That Gave Up Its Nuclear Weapons

Nations that develop nuclear weapons often do so as a deterrent to any would-be attacker; it is a significant investment and so these nations, especially the smaller nations on the nuclear list, are threatened by nations surrounding them. Just one nation though has walked this path in both directions. South Africa, under Apartheid, was diplomatically isolated from the world, and thus felt the n...

How a Dutchman became the King of England

The story, or perhaps stories, of how a Dutchman found himself King of England is a turning point in history. This event concluded England’s Glorious Revolution, and led on to cement a Major constitutional change. Catholics would be prevented from...

Mexico’s Lost Island of Bermeja
Просмотров 22 тыс.5 лет назад
The island of Bermeja appeared on many maps for almost four centuries; until a survey team failed to find the island in 1997, it marked Mexico’s most northern point in the Gulf of Mexico. Failing to find it had serious implications for Mexico, reducing Mexico’s Exclusive Economic Zone in the area and allocating vast areas of the oil-rich waters to the Untitled States of America. But how could a...
Why Hawaii Flies Its Cows
Просмотров 12 тыс.5 лет назад
When Hawaiian Ranchers want to export cattle to the continental United States, sometimes they load their cows onto jet airlines and fly them across the ocean. By weight air travel is far more expensive than shipping on an ocean going ship, so you might ask why these farmers go to the additional expense. The answer comes down to the Merchant Marine Act of 1920, more commonly known as the Jones A...

    I've searched and came with two locations, the first location is 22°06'44.1"N 91°23'23.5"W it's more likely to be this location because of it's location on the globe compared to the historical records, including Spanish maps and maritime charts, now the second location is 23°19'26.0"N 90°05'14.4"W and it is less likely to be this location but there is some kind of two sunken islands and very close to them there is a massive crack on the sea ground it's more or less 13 Kilometers long, even more, there is quite a few cracks is the area, So my conclusion is that the crack\s was made by a massive earthquake that made large pockets of space underground that eventually with time just like a sinkhole bluppped the island out of the blue, Now maybe second location isn't the Bermeja island but it could be other island that had existed in the area, For example Negrillos islands.

    I consider myself a spiritual agnostic. My 1st religion was catholic, then my mom studied with Mormons and then Jehovah witness. Religion is not for me but like learning about different religions and philosophies. Sometimes people ask me how I can be spiritual if I’m not religious. Others think agnostic is the same as atheist but it’s not. I don’t mind explaining to others what an agnostic is. More of us should share and teach others what we believe in.

    Ist Cor 6:9. New Living Translation Don’t you realize that those who do wrong will not inherit the Kingdom of God. Don’t fool yourselves, Those who indulge in sexual sins. Or who worship idols, or who commit adultery or are male prostitutes or practice homosexuality. We write this with love that all will enjoy eternal life with God Almighty, The Creator and sustainer of the universe.

    (a) I'm curious why this _rather old_ video was recommended to me at this time. (b) This video completely ignored bisexuality and that _might_ be an important aspect. (c) I heard about a correlation between subsequent male children having increasing probabilities of being homosexual, e.g. a mother's 2nd male child is more likely to be gay than her 1st male child, a 3rd male child is more likely to be gay than her 1st or 2nd male child. The hypothesis is that as resources become scarce, there's an evolutionary advantage to subsequent children not becoming parents themselves and rather becoming additional providers, e.g. rich uncles.

    Could maybe some evacuated aerogel do the trick? Wikipedia says the least dense aerogel ever made weighs, when evacuated, 1, 000 g/m^3 which is 83% of air. regular old aerogel is also able to withstand some substantial forces. Although the material is very brittle and will go through a catastrophic breakdown when pushed too far. Also, the strength probably comes from the fact that it has a gas within rather than being evacuated so the evacuated version is likely much weaker.

    Consistent with the predictions of the inclusive fitness hypothesis, research conducted in Samoa on homosexual males (fa’afafine) has repeatedly demonstrated that they show elevated avuncular (uncle-like) tendencies compared to Samoan women and straight men. (This is measured via a 9-item scale measuring willingness to care for, and to give resources to, nieces and nephews.) Furthermore, this finding does not appear to reflect a general tendency to help others, but a specific preference for kin. Read more: Vasey, P. L., & VanderLaan, D. P. (2010). An adaptive cognitive dissociation between willingness to help kin and non-kin in Samoan fa’afafine. Psychological Science, 21, 292-297. Alternatively, the strongest support for the sexual antagonism hypothesis has been garnered in Western Europe, where the mothers and maternal aunts of gay males have been repeatedly shown to exhibit elevated reproductive output compared to those with no gay sons or nephews.

    If you are gay or bi, why would there need to be a need for mannerisms? Because being gay is a sexual orientation but not a behavioral one. We vehemently oppose some new education ideas and demand that they be reconsidered in school. One has Nothing to do with the other, change my mind.
