Germany is the most successful team in the history of the UEFA Euro Cup with 3 victories. France is second with 2. The Soviet Union won the first ever championship in 1960.</P>


In order to host the Euros a host country must have a minimum of 8 stadia, with at least one UEFA 5-star venue, and all with a minumum 4-star rating. Cross posting with Euro 2008. </P>

This was shamelessly stolen from the Etruscan's away message, but it's pretty cool, so I thought I'd share it here...</p>

</p>

Trichobatrachus robustus actively breaks its own bones to
produce claws that puncture their way out of the frog's toe pads,
probably when it is threatened.
</p>

"Some other frogs have bony spines that project from their wrist,
but in those species it appears that the bones grow through the skin
rather than pierce it when needed for defence," says Blackburn.</p>











At rest, the claws of T. robustus,
found on the hind feet only, are nestled inside a mass of connective
tissue. A chunk of collagen forms a bond between the claw's sharp point
and a small piece of bone at the tip of the frog's toe.</p>











The
other end of the claw is connected to a muscle. Blackburn and his
colleagues believe that when the animal is attacked, it contracts this
muscle, which pulls the claw downwards. The sharp point then breaks
away from the bony tip and cuts through the toe pad, emerging on the
underside.</p>

Is a Cherry a Berry?</p>

No, a cherry is not a berry the correct term for a cherry is a Drupe. Drupes are fleshy and juicy, but not throughour the entire fruit. Drupes have an outer fleshy layer and an inner woody layer called the stone (a.k.a. pit) that surrounds the seed. They are grow on trees and berries grow on bushes.

$0.10 per SMS at 160 characters per message works out to around $1,000 per megabyte. </p>

This is easily
100x the revenue extracted from shipping TCP/IP data over "cellular
networks," with the most expensive providers, and yet, functionally,
SMS is vastly inferior to TCP/IP instant messaging services on almost
all counts. SMS is limited by message size, media type, and it is
high-latency. </p>

This triumph of premium pricing over a total mismatch in
supply-demand dynamics for the functionality makes SMS one of the great
marketing accomplishments of the century.</p>

A patch test allergy test from a dermatologist consists of sticking big taped pieces of allergens to your back. Then, they put another layer of tape over that to keep it secure, which does not work. Then, you must keep them on for 72 hours. You can not exercise, take a deep bath, or get your back wet at all. You go back at the end of the 72 hours at which point they will look at all of the little irritated spots on your back and tell you what you are allergic to. </p>

I am on my 9th hour. [:(]
