What stops trick Birthday candles from being blown out?
The wick contains an oxidiser, probably potassium nitrate, and a high energy fuel, either aluminum (aluminium to you brits) or magnesium in addition to the cellulose fibre of the wick.
After the candle is blown out, the wick continues to glow red hot, the fuel of the cellulose oxidising fast enough to produce the red glow, but not to re-ignite the petroleum fumes from the newly extinguished flame.
Then the red-hot wick ignites the metal speck, and it burns very hot, if you watch, you will see little miniature fireworks flashes.
These are hot enough to light the wax fumes, and the candle is burning "again."

Natural gas use has increased by 35 percent over the past ten years, and is projected to grow 45 percent by 2015.
my estimation for the growth would be to fuel flux capacitors and hover boards

At work yesterday, somebody when I got off the elevator had put a flip chart with, "I WILL:" reaaaaaaaaal big and then underneath it was stuff like:
- Smile.
- Take care of problems.
- I know my problems are hard, but I will perserver(sic)!BLAH BLAH BLAH!
I don't know why, but that kind of shit pisses me off something awful.
I went up grabbed a marker and wrote, "DO YOUR JOB AND STOP DOING THINGS LIKE THIS."
As I was doing this, a VP walked by and went, "Yea, crack that whip Romey!", and was laughing. I don't know if he was being sarcastic because it was about 11AM and I was just walking into the office, or the fact that he knows how I hate that phony chicken soup shit.
When I left at 4 I saw that no one had written anything more on it.
I'd check to see if it is still up, but I haven't been to the office yet...
