- Et bien, songez-y, qu'est ce que la peine de mort? La peine de mort est le signe spécial et éternel de la barbarie. Partout où la peine de mort est prodiguée, la barbarie domine; partout où la peine de mort est rare, la civilisation règne Assemblée constituante - 1848 Entre le moment ou Tapner est tombé dans le trou de la trappe et l'instant où le bourreau, ne sentant plus de frémissement, lui a laché les pieds, il s'est écoulé douze minutes. Douze minutes! |

- Cyclones tropicaux et typhons, tornades et trombes, orages sont des phénomènes météo souvent dévastateurs qu il ne faut pas confondre. Les cyclones tropicaux et typhons s étendent sur plusieurs centaines de kilomètres, les orages sur plusieurs dizaines de kilomètres, les tornades et trombes sur plusieurs dizaines voire centaines de mètres. Un typhon est un cyclone tropical qui se produit en Asie du sud-est. Ils sont souvent encore plus virulents que les cyclones tropicaux proprement dit qui, eux, concernent des endroits tels les Antilles (entre océan Atlantique et mer des Caraïbes) ou l île de la Réunion (dans l océan Indien). Le centre des cyclones tropicaux et des typhons est matérialisé par un « il », zone circulaire de temps calme et sec. |

- There's a really fascinating interview with UC Berkeley professor George Lakoff discussing how conservatives use language to dominate politics. Reading this makes me realize that Democrats are going to need to do a lot more than just hold Meetups and have blogs to win anytime soon. Also Lakoff has the best quote I've read in a long time about why we pay taxes and why we should pay taxes. Taxes are what you pay to be an American, to live in a civilized society that is democratic and offers opport... |
