What is the difference between "small piece of comet" and a meteorite? I thought meteor showers are caused when Earth travels through the trail of a comet so I don't fully understand why the correction was posted by ESA?

Fuzzy Nation by John Scalzi.

Terran Republic series by Charles Gannon has humans more advanced than one or two, but definitely not at the top of the pack.

Sector General by James White has humans as part of the large alliance of races. The alliance is more advanced than some of the races they encounter.

Foreigner series by C J Cherryh has humans far more technologically advanced, however the small number that reach the alien world have to learn to live peacefully with the aliens.

Most of the Stars wars books have humans as very advanced.

What do people think of the variation for VAR used in the Women's World cup, where the ref speaks out the decision after review?

Now we are upto 6 penaly kicks awarded and only 2 converted.

So out of three penalty kicks awarded so far, only one was converted. Seems kind of poor.

Could you give a few details on what it does and why you like it?

 

With the Women's Fifa world cup starting shortly, how far do folks here think Canada will progress?

Any particular teams we would like to avoid meeting in the knockout rounds?
