How to build a strong bridge using light wood?
We’re doing the university challenge at newcastle uni and my group chose the activity, ‘Gold Rush’. Basically, we need to make a bridge, and the lightest one wins. Of course, if only it can hold up. I heard triangles are the most rigid, but it needs to be able to support a heavy cart that [...]

Why Is The Media Making A Big Deal Over The Pool Incident In Philadelphia?
It’s a private club. They can allow whoever they want. That kid’s parents should have taught him that just because this is 2009 people’s attitudes have not changed.

How weird is it that my IP address has apparently been traced to the Yorkshire Dales?
When it’s fairly well accepted I live in Lancs? Put it this way I’ll be going into Bolton tonight, to the Asda on the A666. So unless I’ll be making a special cross country trip, would anyone like to know if the roadworks are still there on the Dunscar Bridge? Can take a little pic [...]

What is the best way to handle a nose bleed?
I take care of my Grandma most weeks and she occasionally gets these nasty nosebleeds that won’t stop. Any suggestions? Is there something I should be doing besides using kleenix, pinching the bridge of her nose, and having her sit up? Thank you. She has already seen a doctor about it.
