  1. Like raiding your CD collection on a sugar high, Supernaut is always full of glee and wicked finds! Why not make a weekend of it and come to Elizium at the Tunnels on Saturday, too
  2. Shambling, living corpses are poised to claw themselves free of their earthy graves and devour their way to: ELIZIUM - Saturday Night Out For The Living Dead A previously unreported side effect of ELIZIUM hydrochloride has come to light Prolonged bouts of death followed by what scientists are describing as a partial recovery. The press are calling it the rise of the dead, soulless hundreds swarming to the streets as a plague of the previously deceased. With only one thing on their mind, these lurching miscreants are dragging their zombified bodies along to the epicentre of the disaster: THE TUNNELS Carnegie Brae SATURDAY THE 16th OF JUNE 11pm till 3am - 3 Once there, who knows what will happen? Some sort of disco for the dead? Beats from the crypt? Distraught, blood-curdling calls for Braaaains? Maybe a battle cry for Zooombie Girrrrl? Or will the only sound we hear all night be Zombbbiiina and the Skeeleetoooones. That one from the Elusive CD please, because its dead good? Only one things for sure, if they recreate that dance from the Thriller video well be forced to call in the army. Act or dress like a zombie for our amusement and you may even win a prize! Seriously, check out Elizium.net for details.
  3. In the Moorings? Not convinced. I would like to see 'em in Aberdeen though, sound fun!

  5. It's still the same 'guilt by association' argument - The implication is clear that PR will lead to mass-murder and genocide in Scotland. Not exactly digging herself out of any hole, is she?
  6. I'll have a watch of it either tonight or this weekend, but I tend to dislike sensationalist journalism even if I agree with most of the message.
  7. I can't watch it at work, but I can read the script - How many 'guilt by association' montages can you squeeze in involving the Nazis, though?:
  8. Here's a nice little write-up on logical fallicies and the 'Hitler card'. I particularily like the counterexamples:
  9. I think it's a fair point - A lot of people are up in arms about vegetarians and vegans missing out on essential meat and animal byproducts, but most omnivores hardly maintain a healthy diet themselves due to not getting enough of what vegans and vegetarians do.
  10. Part of the problem with all these recommendations is that half of them seem to come from nowhere - The 8 glasses of water a day is a classic one which to most people makes sense, especially considering the collective myths and half-truths surrounding sugary drinks and hot beverages. The truth of the matter is there's no basis for that recommendation - Urban Legends Reference Pages: Eight Glasses
  11. I agree with this too, it holds true for any diet you choose to maintain. Would be interesting to hear how many omnivores reach their 5-a-day target on fruit and veg, for example.
  12. A recent review of the literature seems to show that vegans do have a lower bone mineral density than non-vegans, but the effect of this on bone fracture is inconclusive (AM Smith, Int J Nurs Pract. 2006 Oct;12(5):302-6.) However, carefully controlled lacto-vegetarian and vegan diets can maintain calcium balance and keep bone turnover within the normal parameters. (K Kohlenberg-Mueller, L Raschka. J Bone Miner Metab. 2003;21(1):28-33.) This would seem to suggest that a well-balanced and selected vegan diet can (at least in the short-term) maintain bone mineral density, however the review suggests that either (a) most vegans do not keep a well-balanced diet or (b) a well-balanced diet does not maintain bone mineral density in the long term. Either way, the suggestion most vegans are falling down and snapping in half is inconclusive. Calcium-balance is critical in rapidly growing children and teenagers, so I would be concerned about ill-informed or poorly-planned veganism in teenagers affecting bone development. Similarily, bone mass and calcium balance is critical in post-menopausal women - So I'd also be worried about vegetarian and vegan diets in the elderly. To be honest, for the target age of this website I'd be more concerned with Vitamin D levels up here in Aberdeen. No point in worrying about RDA's if your body can't cope with taking up and processing all that calcium.
  13. Based on an RDA of 1000mg/day and the USDA Nutrient Database, 2kg of broccoli florets a day should do it. Alternatively, why not try 5.5kg of iceberg lettuce a day. Mustard spinach, however, is rich in calcium - You'd only have to eat 0.5kg of that a day.
  14. The Drones - Gala Mill Devastations - Coal Dirty Three - Horse Stories Joanna Newsom - The Milk-Eyed Mender
  15. I've read Norwegian Wood, Dance Dance Dance and am almost finished the Wind Up Bird Chronicles. A great author, thoroughly loved Norwegian Wood and have passed my dog-eared copy around to many folk with much enthusiasm.
  16. Bums! Well spotted, Mr Rules-Monger Alec Empire - Intelligence and Sacrifice
  17. At least it went out on a tune and a half
  18. Am liking that Besnard Lakes album more and more with each listen. Just got the Low album today, too!
  19. Quack Quack were band of the night for me, Teversham just behind and Pit Er Pat took until the last two or three songs to truly win me over. Liked Quack Quack last time they played, but was really impressed this time - I think the context of the evening was more in their favour this time around and their energy from the word 'go' was infectious. Magic way to start a thoroughly enjoyable evening.
  20. ASBO. Or staple your safeword to the front door. Either way, generally being considerate of the rest of the folk in the block is the way forward. I used to tell my neighbours when I had a party planned, perhaps avid BDSM fans could show the same grace? My tongue's so far in my cheek it looks like I'm blowing the invisible man.
  21. Be a killjoy and press for an ASBO?
  22. Follow this easy to use chart: Are the screams for 'help'? -> Phone police Are the screams for 'harder'? -> Phone the Daily Mail
