So what does giant actually taste of?

Like cordon bleu. A lot of it.

Oh, pancake day. Thanks for reminding me!

Yes, but...are you a maple syrup, or a lemon-and-sugar person?
Citrous every time for me!

Some lemon & sugar and other with turo [it's a Hungarianian thing dontchaknow]

Man! That's gonna be one BIG pancake![^]

The link was on that page for Túró[^]; sorry I didn't go all out with accents earlier as I thought all all vowels [where you use them] are the same in Welsh Wales

Welsh has the same vowels as English, plus 'w' and'y', but the pronunciation is different: it doesn't vary in welsh the way it does in English. Instead, we have accents: circumflex (^), which lengthens the sound of the vowel, and the acute (´), which shortens it. Occasionally the diaresis appears on the letter ï, to signify a doubling of the sound.
And we change the word start to make it easier (and better sounding) to say - called mutation.
Surprisingly, it's one of the oldest unchanged languages in Europe: 14th century Welsh bibles are immediately readable to a "modern" Welsh reader.
But... It does look like it was English spelt by a 6year old sometimes!

You're right yummy. 
I've seen pictures of Pythons in the everglades area that have eaten gators and in one case died trying because it was too big.

Like this[^] one? Soh! (snake for 'Doh!').

Yeah that one, little bugger got greedy.

Lucky I have the ability to chew or I might meet a similar fate, as sometimes my eyes are bigger than my stomach.

New magnetic material could boost electronics[^]
The material combines thin layers of nickel and vanadium oxide, creating a structure which is surpisingly responsive to heat.
"We can control the magnetism in just a narrow range of temperature - without applying a magnetic field. And in principle we could also control it with voltage or current," said Prof Schuller.
"At low temperatures, the oxide is an insulator. At high temperatures it's a metal. And in between it becomes this strange material," he said.
Although it's too early to say exactly how it will be used, Prof Schuller sees an obvious opportunity in computing memory systems.
The article notes the last time a discovery like this was made, giant magnetoresistance[^] or GMR in 1988. GMR is the technology that allows hard drives to be so small and dense. If this new tech has a similar impact...

Long gone are the days when somebody discovers something and actually builds something useful, demonstrating its usefulness, rather than making conjecture to garnish brief media coverage. Science has devolved into "we see opportunities!" Venture capitalists probably love that stuff, but probably the smart ones don't.
Anyways, I ramble.
I notice that when my cat eats his food, it leaves distinct patterns of crumbs in the bowl. I see obvious opportunities in applying prediction theory of cat crunchy crumbs with quantum crumbodynamics to predict when my cat will be hungry next. Send me money to research this further, as I want to create a "smart bowl" to alert me on my phone when my cat is hungry.
I think I'll head over to Kickstarter to submit my video of my cat eating.

When they discovered how to make buckyballs there was no immediate gain, but now look at the nanotechnology.

Professor Schrödinger has prior art on this (or does he?)

Oh no you said 'Math'.
You are in so much trouble when the pedantic brigade get here.

Good point this side of the pond it is called Maths never worked out why shorten for Mathematics I guess the s probably crept in due to pronunciation (and the accent!), waiting for our Darlek friend to added his view!

All you need to know is that, if the American version differs from the UK version, the American version is wrong.

Here's my answer.
Mathematics --> Math
Economics --> Econ
Physics --> Phys
Chemistry --> Chem
I think Math was the only one that stuck phonetically from a university curriculum.
