Does anyone have a link to Tolkien's painting "The Land of Pohja"?
Most of Tolkien's paintings and drawings can be found on the Internet, but "The Land of Pohja", made in 1914, is strangely abscent. The painting depicts the Moon and the Sun which are resting in the trees.
Thanks.
2 個解答Books & Authors8 年前What is the point of philosophy in the modern world?
What good does a professional, full-time philosopher do to the society? What do philosophers do, actually? Do they just ponder about the logic and reasons and meaning of various things? Hmmm...
12 個解答Philosophy8 年前Can you really get addicted to 8mg Co-Codamol tablets?
This over-the-counter, non-prescription drug comes with a warning of possible addiction, and a 3-day use only direction. Are these just precautionary warnings, just to be safe? Can you really get addicted to these pills if you take them for more than 3 days? Thanks

3 個解答Other - Education8 年前Which assault rifles have a 3-round burst that fires all 3 round before you feel the recoil?
A few years ago, I saw this cool animation of the internal mechanism of various guns in action. There was an assault rifle that fired a burst of three rounds before the recoil to the whole gun. Can anyone hlep me identify this model (or models, if there are several)? I'm aware that there are many guns with a 3-round burst mode, but I'm talking specifically about the "3 rounds before the recoil" guns. Thanks
6 個解答Military8 年前Is spring really the "fireball season", as NASA calls it?
Never heard of this expression before, or that there was any increase in fireballs (very bright meteors) in spring. Here's NASA link: http://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/vis/a010000/a011200/a0112...
5 個解答Astronomy & Space8 年前Why is "desolace" not a real word?
There is the adjective and the verb "desolate", but no noun for something that has been made (or left) desolate. The word "Desolace" is found in a computer game World of Warcraft, where it's the name for a desolate region. Someone also mistakenly wrote "desolace of Smaug", referring to Desolation of Smaug in The Hobbit. I think "desolace" makes for a good word, a kind of antonym to "solace".

4 個解答Weather8 年前Does crocodile oil help with skin problems?
I have seborrheic dermatitis, and a friend gave me Nile Crocodile Oil Soap (produced in South Africa). I have never heard of crocodile oil before, so an Internet search shows it to be a folk/alternative remedy for skin problems, touted by some websites. Haven't found any credible medical infromation. Does it help at all, or is it just a scam?

1 個解答Photography8 年前Are there any sci-fi books or movies from a robot's point of view?
I'm playing a Facebook game Robot Rising and this made me wonder, is there any science fiction written from the point of view of robots? Perhaps they have cities, factions, conflicts, and they would of course have some human traits. If you know of any such books or movies (or even games), please share!

Something that puzzled me for a long time. I've read some articles about this type of games, but still can't find out exactly how do you play them. Do the players roll the dice, like in D&D games? What determines whether the unit wins or loses?
2 個解答Other - Games & Recreation9 年前Isn't the British TV Licence against the basic Freedom of Information right?
In the UK, if you own a TV set you have to pay a licence. You have to pay even if you don't watch BBC, or don't watch TV at all. Unless I'm mistaken, you have to pay even if you only have an electronic device (mobile or computer) that can receive TV broadcast. How is that fair? Doesn't it go against the basic right of all humans to access information?
