noir3 Every time I comeback the forum looks different... still miss the old one from 5 years ago.. guess you will always like the one you were first on~~~

Well unfortunately for you, if these guys show up in 15 minutes, you're gonna wish you had Allstate.
Well hay there, my name is Dan, I'm a 30 something pedi nurse from the "big" state of Texas. I'v been into anime for a number of years now and have been lurking this site for a while and I finally desided to drop in and see what ya'll are up to. I have AN on demand via cable (would love it if we had the full version.) I have a really accletic mix of likes, I am a HUGE Miyazaki fan but also really into Elfen Lied at the moment, my wife gets a bit wiered out by this mix (cutisy cartoons about little girls and such and then grafic sex and violence but hay she like the Bee Gees and Twisted Sister .)
One quick little question for all you hard core types can anyone explaine the "rateing guides"? Some of it I get like language, skimpy clothing, but just what the heck is nose bleeding???
No its statics. Here I'll quote the wikipedia; it does a pretty good job of explaining.
Statics is the branch of mechanics concerned with the analysis of loads (force, torque/moment) on physical systems in static equilibrium, that is, in a state where the relative positions of subsystems do not vary over time, or where components and structures are at a constant velocity. When in static equilibrium, the system is either at rest, or its center of mass moves at constant velocity. The study of moving bodies is known as dynamics, and in fact the entire field of statics is a special case of dynamics[1].
By Newton's first law, this situation implies that the net force and net torque (also known as moment of force) on every body in the system is zero. From this constraint, such quantities as stress or pressure can be derived. The net forces equalling zero is known as the first condition for equilibrium, and the net torque equalling zero is known as the second condition for equilibrium. See statically determinate.
