If a site complains or uses ACAP - Google should just drop them.
The Google "site death penalty" - you become (rightfully) irrelevant.
I wish I could set in my Google preferences to exclude sites the use "noarchive" or "nosnippet".
Like those journals that feed Google the whole content but just give surfers a subscription page. Such as Blackwell-Synergy - I keep submitted them to Google's spam page since they do that - in direct violation of Google rules.
There's a thing that people do sometimes -- they'll have you sign some stupid form, or put up a sign that says, "not responsible for xxx." None of that is sturdy legally -- but they try to convince gullible people that they've lost before they've started.
It has been said those "not responsible for broken windshields" signs (on vehicles where rocks are prone to fall off of) don't work to remove legal liability, but they do work in getting people to believe it and thus stay far away - if they stay far away, they don't get hit by the rocks, thus no damage and no lawsuit.
And if people have scripting turned off for security, or not implemented to save space/reduce bugs, or because it is a mobile/embedded device, or it is a search engine, or it is an application that is reading data, not a human, it fails utterly.
A bad solution.
XHTML is the right solution. Pages should work even with scripting turned off, style sheets should be used for formatting, things need to not be implementation defined (maybe we can replace the Adobe (*) Proprietary, umm I meant Portable Document Format), browsers should put an icon on the taskbar for quality (gold star for XHTML with no bugs, lesser stars all the way to a pile of dirt/garbage can for badly malformed HTML), text/html should be the MIME type instead of that awful application/xml+xhtml nonsense and people should insist their authoring tools generate proper XHTML. Compatible with HTML browsers, XML parsers, works for humans, search engines and other applications (such as data transfer between apps, databases and web services), simple and clean. The "text" MIME type means it can be read and edited using text tools, as it should be able to be.
You may be feeling less pain due to a drug effect.
Meth reduces pain, and makes physical activity a lot easier and causes massive weight loss - and most appetite suppressants are meth-like. Legal (albeit often at C-II scheduling, like COCAINE and METH - yes, those are NOT Schedule 1, and are legally used, albeit it rarely) and not stigmatized, but then again, heroin was over-the-counter for coughs within the last 100 years.
I've seen examples of meth addicts here in town, and it ain't pretty at all.
The core of his thesis is that a cellular-level metabolic disorder caused over time by consumption of concentrated and rapidly available carbohydrates, and the insulin spikes they provoke, is the cause not only of obesity but also of type II diabetes. Briefly, fat cells become too good at extracting glucose from the blood and storing it.
Those sentences appear to contradict - fat cells becoming too good at removing glucose would LOWER insulin resistance and glucose levels, the opposite of diabetes. (What do you thing TZDs/PPAR-gamma agents like Avandia and Actos do? Cause fat gain and lower insulin resistance and glucose).
I find that hard to believe. Diabetes results only after progressive dysfunction and death of pancreatic beta cells occurs on a large scale.
You can't reverse that just by "healthy eating", any more than putting top quality gas in an engine with burned pistons will make it run well again.
Healthy eating or lifestyle can reduce the load on the pancreas such that the new demands on it are less than the currently degraded functioning and temporarily alleviate symptoms.
They do have ideas on what MIGHT be able to slow, stop, and eventually reverse the progression of beta cell loss and failure, but not yet.
60% of your beta cells need to be dead to get type 2.
Also, diabetic glycosolation isn't considered reversible. ALT-711 aka algebrium can do it, but has been having trouble getting funded - it could put some BIG holes in some massive pockets. Big pharma and laser retinopathy treatments, fake limbs, etc are huge money makers. Pharma is like 10X the size of the nations IT infrastructure, or more.
Anything over 125 on a sufficient fast (12 hours is sufficient) is considered diabetes, not pre-diabetes, IGT, IFG, simple insulin resistance, or a "touch of sugar", but true, actual, diabetes.
Get that kind of fasting reading twice and you WILL be diagnosed under both the WHO and ADA criteria.
Go to a doctor ASAP. If you have diabetes, you need to not just work on sugar, but not go barefoot (which can causes ulcers, infections and amputations due to nerve and circulation damage), need to have a dilated eye exam EVERY year (this should be for everyone, IMHO), get an A1C every 3 months and treat it aggressively.
I sincerely hope you aren't diabetic, but it is even worse to be one and be undiagnosed.
GHB: Illegal, more druggy than being drunk, unpredictable, a dose that your friend took today or you took yesterday will kill you dead today, easy to hide the taste (date rape risk) Alcohol: Legal in most countries, more fun than GHB, and safer, hard to hide the taste; it also reduces heart disease and diabetes.
Allowing open access to journals will make it easier for people to research diagnosing and treatments for new emerging biological threats, including those from a possible bioterror attack.
When first responders can find out the information we need, it can make us all safer.

There is some kind of 2D graphic on the back of a Nevada Driver's License.
Anyone know what is on it and how to decode it?
Any other states have this?

Sometimes just being believed is enough.

Your post is an example of why the U.S. House Says the Internet is [a] Terrorist Threat. :)
I one time dialed 311 (non-emergency number) because someone was driving crazy and the police transferred me to 911.
Sometimes we get so conditioned to not use 911 that we don't use it when we should.
Food is NOT loaded with LDL cholesterol!
Cholesterol in food is not bound to lipoproteins (i.e. LDL, HDL, etc).
The lipoproteins exists to allow the fat to stay in solution in the blood. Since fats are very hydrophobic and blood is usually over 50% water.
Nitrogen is inert. It is about 79% of the air your breathe, and your body contains many pounds of nitrogen!
Glycerine is used in face cream. Quite safe and inert.
So by your reasoning above, I could claim that nitroglycerine is nice and safe.
Aspartame is considered by many to cause excitotoxic damage, Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson's and possibly even Alzheimer's.
Some people are messed up so that any exercise just destroys muscle (they do not get stronger).
Very abnormal, and very unhealthy.
They need to check for:
1. Serious overtraining.
2. Malnutrition.
3. Cushing's.
And more.
They need to see a doctor ASAP.

Be careful, be very careful.
Why take health info from the USDA instead of from DHHS?
Would you trust the oil companies to tell you have to get better gas mileage in your car?
Talk about conflict of interest.

Losing GHB is no big loss.
This begs the question, what would 1,5 pentanediol metabolize into and is THAT even safe?
Too bad Bush let New Orleans drown in 2005.
Curing cancer decades earlier than never/eternity is still never/eternity.
(Yes, I know my statement is false when it comes to rats, we can cure rat cancer with astonishing effectiveness.)

That sounds like UK law to me.
People awaiting transplants have a pager notify them, which is much more reliable.
