Bread is a grain, regardless of how "dark" it is. Yes, you've gotta have roughage, but you can get plenty of fiber from fruits and vegetables (raspberries, kale, and avocados are super high in fiber, but the list is much longer than that).
Grains are completely unessential in our diet at best, and at worst, detrimental to our health in the long run.
pure basic logic says that you have to burn exactly the same amount of calories that you absorb for maintenance and cutting fats to reach that is generally pretty easy.
Completely false. Cutting fats and/or calorie-counting is not how one maintains a healthy body weight. The body is far more complex than people think, it's not as simple as "calorie in, calorie out" and "eating fat = getting fat." Like I said above, pick up "Good Calories, Bad Calories," it will blow your mind and change how you view calories, fat, and diet in general.
Your earlier "misinformed" jab at roman_mir is kind of ironic, because actually it's you who is misinformed.
...varied diet complete with...grains...lean meat etc. keeps me as healthy as possible.
There's plenty of evidence that grains are actually not good for us, that they lead to inflammation in the body, which can in turn lead to all sorts of ailments (Crohn's disease, IBS, arthritis, skin problems). Not to mention refined/processed carbohydrates spike insulin levels and encourage fat storage as opposed to fat-burning. Also, there is nothing wrong with saturated fat (fatty cuts of meat, coconut oil, bacon fat, cheese, butter, etc) or cholesterol. Start here:
"I'm starting with the man in the middle
I'm asking him to change his ways

Find the man in the middle and punch his face."
For web-based stuff, I use the PwdHash add-on for Firefox, which works great. Basically, you just choose a single password and it hashes it based on the domain it's meant for. So, e.g., I could have a single password such as "shitfaced55" which actually gets hashed BEFORE being sent to a particular web site. This results in having different passwords for each web site:
All I have to do is, in a given password field, type @@ followed by "shitfaced55" and when you tab out of the field, PwdHash hashes it for that particular site. Works great!
It's very unlikely that it is worse than the stuff people willingly expose themselves to - drugs, alcohol, sugar, fried foods, etc. Hell even vegetables can be bad for you. As a non-obese diet caffeine free soda drinker in his early thirties that has recently found out he is diabetic I can tell you that damn near everything you could want to eat seems to be cursed.
If you knew how to eat properly, you wouldn't have these problems and you most certainly would not have adult diabetes. And please clue me in on which vegetables are bad for you, I'd love to hear about that.
The sleep disruption is due to "blue light" in LCD displays. It's a certain temperature range (around 5000K-6500K) that the human body perceives as daylight (which is about 5600K I believe), so it tricks your body into staying awake.
Someone above mentioned F.lux which is a great app to change your screen's color temperature as the sun sets. I've used it and it indeed does work, I'm actually able to get sleepy while using the computer, whereas before, I could easily stay up all night.
Not quite related to layout, but this is rather about the desk setup: do everyone a favor and get adjustable height desks that allow you to use traditionally (seated), or raise up and use standing up. Developers sit all day, and as a result, their glutes sustain a lot of damage and atrophy. Basically they're in a static stretch all day long, which is not good. Standing workstations are great, but sometimes people will want to sit, so I think adjustable height is the way to go. Better for your backs, and you'll save your asses. Literally.
Wow, no mention of fluidhosting.com? These guys are the best, in my opinion. No overselling (UNLIMITED HARD DRIVE SPACE!!!11), no BS, no waiting around for days for an answer on a support ticket. Great service, great hardware, fast network. Been with them for several years.
Dudes. Then get a real editor that handles auto-indentation. "Highly indented code" is a GOOD thing, I've worked with enough developers who slack on their indentation, and it makes the code a bitch to read.
HAHAH.. oh man, thank you for that. I'd mod you +1 funny, but you're already at 5. And.. I don't have any mod points. Bummer. Man, now I feel like eating.
1. Extremely rare with today's processor power. Really, I'm just telling it like it is.
2. Maybe. Depends on the site and the developer's skills. Ajax (which requires Javascript) can really add value by shortening load times by only loading necessary data, rather than doing entire page refreshes. Even if some of it is cached, there's still page rendering time involved, and sometimes there are network hiccups that prevent the page from coming up right away. When I talk about Javascript improving usability, 95% of the time I'm talking about Ajax. Specifically, I'm a jQuery advocate.
But let's be realistic, who would normally visit that site, throughout their usual daily routine? I've had Javascript and cookies enabled always, for my entire time of browsing the web (15+ years?), and never had a web-based attack of any kind. And I surf a lot.
From the perspective of a web designer/developer who uses Javascript to enhance and optimize the user experience: people like you drive me up a frickin' wall. There's no need to disable all that stuff, unless you have a paranoid personality disorder.
Look, it just takes some common sense. Don't surf to sites that may be malicious. 99% of the time, it's completely obvious what those sites are. Also, it helps to not use IE, which is more susceptible to attacks than Firefox and other browsers.
Someone please give me a valid reason why anyone should be blocking cookies (1st party, NOT 3rd party) and disabling Javascript, other than paranoia and/or a bad case of nerd grump.

You're adding 10 seconds to the download time of people on 56kbps modems.
What the heck is a 56kbps modem?! Wait, wait, it's coming to me. Ahh yes, I just saw one of these at a technology museum. Quaint!

May I remind you of the Iranian cleric who blamed earthquakes on promiscuous women. Many of these idiots live in the dark ages, at least mentally.
Besides, it was a joke! You know, humor? Sarcasm? Of course fanatical religious terrorists can be tech-savvy.
By the way, if you happen to be a techno-savvy hard-line Muslim reading this post
Sorry, the techno-savvy hard-line Muslim can't come to the phone right now. He's out to lunch with the gadget-hoarding Amish electrical engineer.
This guy wouldn't last 5 minutes in a strip club.

"will" is being used as a verb here. (I will you to depart)
Rephrase: "Act only according to that maxim whereby you can, at the same time, suggest that it should become a universal law."

Why didn't Whirlpool make the list of candidates? That sucker is fort knox.
How about tin foil hats?
I too am a huge fan of NX. It blows the pants off of any other remote access technology (RDP, LogMeIn, VNC).
Ah well..sad no one got my joke! Or maybe it just wasn't funny.
Sounds like vaporware.
