Facebook CO2 footprint = 0.5 NYC's



So, at any point of time, overall Facebook power consumption equals:

(10,000 x 250 ) + (300,000 x 120) = 38,500 Kw or 51,629 HP

[...]

Hence on an estimated ballpark - Facebook daily consumes 924,000 KiloWatt-Hours with per capita of 3.08 KWh . Annually the per capita figure would be 1124 KWh /year or equivalent to emission of 0.75 ton of green house CO2 (Carbon footprint) which is half of NY city’s carbon footprint.

Harry doesn’t die

[Reuters]

Harry doesn’t die
Snape dies on page 658, his last words are “Look…at…me…”
Dobby dies on page 476, his last words are “Harry…Potter…”
Moody dies sometime before page 78, you hear of his death from Bill and Fleur
Collin Creevy dies sometime before page 694, Harry finds Neville is carrying his dead body
The sorting hat dies on page 732, Voldemort lights it on fire
Fred dies
Tonks dies
Lupin dies
Neville kills Nagini
Snape was Dumbledore’s spy all along. Dumbledore plotted his own death so that the power of the Elder Wand would die with him rather than be transferred to his victor. He failed though and the power is transferred to Draco, then to Harry (of course).
Voldemort dies on page 744
Harry’s scar goes away
Harry Marries Ginny and has three kids named Lily, Albus Sirius, and James
Ron Marries Hermione and has two kids, Hugo and Rose
Neville becomes professor of Herbology
Malfoy gets married and has a son named Scorpius

A la lenteur, il me dépassera jamais


[Roberto Berlim/Flickr]
Sous-titre Libération: "Qui va croire que ce grand garçon vote LCR?"


"En ce qui me concerne, je fais du sport depuis que je suis gosse ; je n'ai jamais arrêté d'en faire et je n'ai aucun mérite : j'aime bien faire du sport. A part ça, il faut savoir qu'un runner/jogger digne de ce nom doit : 1/ être torse nu ( en Eté.) 2/courir avec une bouteille d'eau à la main. 3/Attacher la laisse du clébard à la taille. Et le clébard qui coure devant toi. 4/ avoir un bandana ( le jogger. Pas le clébard.) 5/ courir avec l'air dégagé et avec un lecteur MP3 ( ou MP4 ou MP5 ou MP6 ou plus si c'est possible.) 6/ très important : avoir avec soi un électro machin truc qui permet de savoir si on va pas mourir en courant : ça se met autour de la poitrine et avec ça, ON SE DEPASSE SOI-MEME. A titre personnel, je ne me dépasse jamais moi-même et d'ailleurs tout le monde me dépasse : les vieux qui veulent avoir l'air jeune et les jeunes qui sont déjà des vieux dans la tête. je ne dépasse que les handicapés et les femmes ( faut pas déconner quand même.) Je cours lentement mais j'ai toujours couru. A part ça, je baise régulièrement, je marche en montagne, je n'ai pas de voiture ( ce qui fait que je marche beaucoup, longtemps et quotidiennement), je lis dès le petit dejeuner. Après, je bosse et surtout, j'essaye de trouver un intérêt à ma présence dans le monde. Et ça va plutôt bien malgré quelque coups de calcaire parfois comme il en arrive à tout le monde. Et Sarko, je le prends quand il veut. A la lenteur, il me dépassera jamais."
