clipper's remarks: Germans were deemed to have bad body odour, Englishmen were accused of letting women do all the work, whilst Swedes were a bit too quick to finish.

Men from Holland were ''too rough'' between the bed covers and Americans were accused of being ''too dominating'' in the bedroom.

Greek men were said to be a bit too soppy.

Other countries who didn't fare well in the poll were Scotland (too loud), Turkey (too sweaty) and Wales (too selfish).

Russian men crept in at tenth place amid accusations they are too hairy for the average woman.

A spokesperson for www.OnePoll.com added: ''These results are an eye-opener for thousands of men around the world and female travellers might judge potential new lovers by looking at these results.''

Giant Sea Worm Terrorizes Aquarium

Sun, 13 Sep 2009 09:43:19 GMT

clipped by: Cushla
clipper's remarks: As in all good horror films, Barry went about all that bloodcurdling business in the shadows to begin with, stealthily stalking the victims. Unobserved by the all staff cast at Newquay’s Blue Reef Aquarium, the four-foot long sea worm attacked and mutilated coral reefs and apparently maimed a prize Tang fish in the tank he had infiltrated. When alarm bells about an intruder started ringing among the workers, the cunning critter devoured not only the bait but also the hooks on traps that had been set overnight. Barry even bit through a 20-pound fishing line, before eventually being lured out with fish scraps in a gripping climax, as the aquarium display was dismantled rock by rock.
Thought to be a tropical polychaete worm, Barry is a real life sea monster, armed with sharp, powerful jaws that can slice prey in two, and covered with thousands of bristles purportedly capable of numbing a human with their sting. When in predatory mode, these omnivorous creatures will bury their long bodie

This beastie looks like a horror movie monster – perhaps an amalgamation of one of the bloodthirsty giant worms from Tremors and the terrifying extraterrestrials in Aliens – but let’s give “Barry” a break. In a classic case of B-movie baddie turned A-list luminary, the affectionately named giant sea worm was yesterday discovered terrorizing other aquatic life in an aquarium in Cornwall, England, but today proving to be the star attraction there.

Since being captured, Barry – who most likely arrived as a juvenile stowaway in a coral delivery from another aquarium – has undergone an identity transformation. Having been given a special tank, the former creepy nasty is now a bona fide, internationally renowned celebrity who visitors from far and wide are flocking to see – from well behind the safety glass. The aquarium has even been contacted with requests for interviews.

A dog is truly a man's best friend. If you don't believe it, just try this experiment. Put your dog and your wife in the trunk of your car for an hour. When you open the trunk, who is really happy to see you?

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle. Then I realised God doesn’t work that way, so I stole one and prayed for forgiveness.

Balancing act: the delicate artwork of Bill Dan
Bill Dan balancing art

The stoney towers have captured the attention of so many people in the San Francisco Bay area that Bill is now inundated with requests to teach the method behind the delicate skill. Bill, originally from North Sulawesi, Indonesia, has been perfecting his awe-inspiring art for over 15 years after being inspired while hiking in Hawaii
He said: "I saw a lot of cairns while I was walking and I was attracted to the fact they were put together by people with a common purpose"

Balancing act: the delicate artwork of Bill Dan
Balance master Bill Dan's incredible wizardry with weights has allowed him to created these stunning rock formations

He has some tips for beginners: "If you are curious, you should start doing it yourself. It is not that difficult to stack two or three rocks. Don't worry if you start with large contact points, you can get smaller and smaller as you build your skills"
And to prove that

In a stunning display of constructive prowess, Bill, from San Francisco, can create his stacks of counter-balanced stones in just a matter of minutes.

Inspired by stone piles used by trekkers - also known as cairns - the artist has adopted the way-marker concept and taken it to an incredible new level.

clipper's remarks: A new twist in Crop Circle. Amazing really.

This circle had a very short life span, was spotted at noon and cut down by the angry farmer at 5.30pm. An Aussie scientist and researcher paid the farmer 700 pounds acc. to Moulton Howe, just to buy some extra time to go over it, the farmer took the money but didn't wait that long before he moved in with the tractor and cut it down.

Ditching binary will make quantum computers more powerful

clipper's remarks: But other possibilities exist, Neeley explains. "We could use a 'trinary' system with three digits – 0, 1 and 2 – and then the fundamental units would be trinary digits, or trits, that would essentially be three-position switches." A single "trit" would contain more information a conventional "bit".

Neeley's team have now built a quantum computer whose building blocks have five basic states.

Ditching binary will make quantum computers more powerful

Unlike most pieces of computer hardware, this quantum bit handles data using five basic states instead of the conventional two (Image: Erik Lucero/UCSB)

Memo to the developers of superfast quantum computers: give up on the familiar 1s-and-0s binary system used in conventional computers. By switching to a novel five-state system, you will find it easier to build the staggeringly powerful machines.

So far, the development of quantum computers has followed the traditional binary computing model. This encodes all information using components that can be in two states, either 1 or 0.

So claim Matthew Neeley and colleagues at the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB).
