3) Give up on exercise and go with diet. Given a choice between diet and exercise, your body will function better from choosing diet, than exercise alone. In fact, I recommend that people lose weight BEFORE working out. Simply because bigger people are less able to work out. The workouts produce more strain and are less likely to result in successful behavior as well as the risk of the whole system breaking.
4) Eliminate the carbs. Fast storage can only happen as a result to insulin. Insulin (barring a medical condition) is a reaction to too much blood sugar. That only comes from food. So low carb and slow carb (complex carbs) it. get as close to eliminating them as possible. When you don't eat carbs, your hunger fades because rather than eating for right now, you instead eat for your next meal or your next day. When you do this successfully, you will notice you only get hungry after eating a lot of carbs. Also, never, ever drink your carbs. use diet sodas, if you use sodas at all. But its best to avoid them all together.
The FDA and most places have yet to do a competent scientific study that tests only diet OR excercise. All these "diet and exercise" studies are not scientific because they change two factors at once, and both have thermodynamic repercussions, so you can't actually tease out what is more effective. But if my own experience is to be anything other than anecdotal, I'd say eating "right" is far more important. *right = for your metabolism.
I upgraded yesterday and I've had all kinds of loading problems. Facebook photos don't load. The gmail theme background loads, then goes missing ("whites out") after switching to another tab then back. I've had some some other sites like yahoo finance not load the charts. My 3.0 never had these issues... I hope they get sorted out. I noticed it has a better deferrable loading engine, where it can lay things out and get the page in front of you faster. I'm not describing those types of things. Unless the deferrrer gives up too soon.
It is bad enough being the recipient of a Protos carrier storm, or a Zerg rush even on 100Mbut switched LAN. Now you want me to send all of my LAN party's packets over a 2MBline? No F-ing way.
Sorry Blizzard, but you're now out of touch with the people who made you great. Bye.
The issues of tracking cattle are going to be similar to tracking humans. They will learn from this project, so that the one that gets deployed on us will be much less error prone. In fact, people are probably easier to model (very habitual as everyone has a schedule for themselves) whereas a herd has a less rigid schedule.
I wouldn't even call this a slippery slope. This is a stepping stone. It would only be a slippery slope if the lessons learned did not have any applicability to humans. But they do.
I never trust windows copy for large file transfers from disc to disc, on the same machine. One error and BAM! You're left with an inconsistent file system copy. The only RELIABLE way to resolve this is to break out RSYNC and have it finish the copy. But then one wonders, why not start with rsync in the first place. Unlike windows copy, you can have it ignore & LOG errors. Then when the large batch is done, fix the errors and repeat the same command, and RSYNC won't copy the already-copied information.
They are a company. It's their job... The only barrier to setting a price is competition. But I think what you are trying to say is that it is prohibitively expensive, and therefore Comcast is competing with itself, keeping itself out of a wider market.
Yeah, but the underweight-to-average people probably got far more sex with hotter people and had more fulfilling lives. They also escaped the worst illnesses of age. Weight is one of the last criterion people feel able to discriminate against. (Socio-economic factors are the other.) Unfortunately, while discrimination on other factors is falling, the discrimination on these are on the increase. (With obesity being cited in health insurance, global warming, etc)
The moment you start measuring life by longevity and not quality, you set yourself up for a disappointing life. There should be only three rules: 1) that your parents don't outlive you. 2) you live long enough for your kids (if any) to become adults 3) at any moment you should be happy with the life you lived if you were to die right then. This whole longevity thing doesn't make sense. You/will/ die sometime. Odds are you won't be able to when and the manner of your passing. So just enjoy live. Life is a terminal condition. Don't fear the inevitable, but prepare for it.

I would like to point people to the Economic Index of Freedom Looks like other than USA, Hong Kong (which I like), Singapore, Australia, Ireland,New Zealand. Of these, only HK and Singapore would fit because the English-Speaking countries are all embarking on the erosion of liberties/privacies.
Of those two, you could probably find a tech job in HK. Singapore isn't as tech heavy, but I think you could manage there as well.
The problem with your logic, is that the government grows when things are good (not because more government makes things better) but then it grows when the economy goes down as part of "stimulus". Then when things to finally get good, well see my first statement.
Every person receiving government money moves the 80% of that burden from themselves (paying 20% in their own taxes) and puts it on the remaining population, which has just lost a tax revenue person. As the government gets bigger, fewer are left to pay the tax bill, so it gets distributed among a smaller and smaller population.
Green Day recently declined to make a censored version of their album to meet Wal*Mart's demands. Wal*Mart thought that they could strong-arm anyone into making an non-explicit version. But lost out, because the album is doing quitewellthankyouverymuch.
On a more historical note, the founders of this great nation realized that smuggling was a good thing. As taxes became oppressive, the more reason there was for smuggling. They saw it as a great balancing factor. They state had to choose to keep the taxes low, or let a larger amount go untaxed, in addition to a drop in sales, like they are seeing with the new tobacco taxes.
The current government is advantaged because of electronic record keeping, where some SQL statement can spot discrepancies for additional investigation.
But there is no reason why the governments should have license to grow when its supporting economy just dropped 20%. To argue otherwise is to argue that you can tax a nation into prosperity, or that you can lift yourself up by your boot straps.
I applaud Amazon for having gravitas. I also wish the best for those affiliates in NC. Hopefully they will speak up and fix the taxation, or NC will learn to go without.
This will just carry forward and old bugs and give them life a new in a new executing environment, where no one knows what will happen. Seems like makings for several DailyWTFs to me...
I'd like to give a shout-out to the Samba team and creators of RSync. Version 3 and later is what you want. It has many goodies that make backing up a joy, incleding an off-line incremental backup feature that I find really handy.
Still, I'm looking for a good graphical rsync that does not use cygwin on windows though.
1) Flood the volunteer lists with people who will sleep, facebook or otherwise not watch the cameras. Old school denial of service attack. 2) Install cameras in the monitoring center that gets monitored and shared with other monitoring centers. See if people seeing themselves creeps them out.
And before anyone points out that iPhone 3G didn't have compass built into the hardware - It is supposed to be apple! I expect nothing sort of miracles from Steve Jobs!!
Why not use the difference of GPS coordinates to determine the last direction walked and use that to orient your google maps/compass?
The Church of Global Warming (renamed to the Church of Climate Change, since we're now cooling since 2001), does not allow itself to be questioned. It is headed by Al Gore, known to followers as the AlGoracle, or 'Goracle, It is in mimicry of the Goracle's own behavior, that he has refused to debate any climate-educated scientist. The Goracle is infallible, and options or questions to the contrary are forbidden, lest be be proven fallible. If the Goracle's words were ever to be disproved, his followers would have to examine evidence to the contrary and decide for themselves. This is always doom for any religion. This is not desired by the Goracle, or his followers, so information to the contrary is vehemently suppressed. I myself have fallen victim to their zealotry, even when not attempting to directly challenge the Goracle.
It seems that there is a segment of society that must feel guilty, that just can't be happy with the status quo. That this guilty carbon pleasure somehow justifies their suffering (I am guilty, and that is why I am unhappy) These people are not a new phenomenon, rather the Puritans that settled this country thought in very similar ways. We will be stuck with them forever I am afraid.
But the evidence is stacking up the CO2 induced warming is not as risky as the church preaches. There are certain things you can say that will get you modded troll:
Lest we forget that corals were some of the earliest forms of life on the planet. Yet, they survived the time when all that carbon we were burning was still in the atmosphere and the oceans.
Despite ever increasing levels of CO2, we have been cooling since 2001. Look at the UAH Global temperature anomaly.
Jesus had several magic tricks - turning water into wine, walking on water, etc. The most amazing trick that the 'Goracle has done was when he waved his hands during an "Inconvenient Truth" and said "the relationship between carbon dioxide and temperature is complex". Everything after that statement was science by consensus (80% of scientists), and not science. While 80% is a convincing number, if they all use the same models, its a wonder its not 99% to 100%.
A side effect of that statement is he has everyone believing that temperature follows CO2. But there are quite a few studies that it is the opposite - that show temperature increases cause CO2. If that is the case, then fighting CO2 is a waste because we can't control the temperature of the planet.
Despite years of predicting no Arctic sea ice, ice area has rebounded for the past two years and is now back in 1 STDEV of normal.
Don't get me wrong, I love the environment. But CO2, is a wolf outside of our fence, and we have wolves inside our fences. There is a plummeting of amphibian populations from toxins. There is MTBE in breast milk (a rocket fuel additive). There are plenty of species about to go extinct from habitat destruction. There is plenty to worry about. Many people forget that we're talking 2degrees C per century.
I think the biggest problem is scientists have found out how to be lawyers. They've found a way to create a need for themselves. By forecasting doom, they need to study the nature of doom. You don't see headlines from the other stories as much because they are much smaller scale, higher degrees of accountability, smaller error bars, and relatively well-understood outcomes.
Another great trick is they've tricked everyone into thinking there is such a thing as "climate science". But no one can perform an experiment big enough and measure it accurately enough to get any meaningful data. Its a heyday! All the funding and no accountability!
Is to allow phones to pick up services a-la-carte. Let my data come from one provider, Let my voice, voice mail, and caller ID service come from another,
This whole idea that the carrier gets all of your a-la-carte services is, quite literally, retarded. Once we can split our services among carriers we'll see real competition again. Don't like Sprint's data policies or rates? Get it from Verizon instead.
Actually recent papers published (last week?) actually indicate that the Earth is losing atmosphere faster than Venus and Mars. It seems that the belief is wholly incorrect. It does seem to still prevent radiation exposure though, which is always a Good Thing(tm) Discovery Channel coverage
When working the helldesk, I always put it in terms of it being the computer's fault. Even if it was a classic PEBKAC problem, I explained it as "The computer wasn't ready to handle your input.

I was the most popular helldesk worker and people would always ask for me. Being a helldesk worker, I can say that only the smaller portion of my calls were complete PEBKACs and thus, there was usually something wrong with the computer, being a transient glitch or software fluke.
What mortgage lasts more than 30 years? "His home for 53 years" is almost 2 whole mortgages! And the pic does not look like 54 year-old construction. I have a 54 year old house and it does not look nearly that new. I something smells fishy!

At $9.50 each, you have a very expensive part... Which has integrated electronics to lower the voltage. Just because you can screw it into a 12v socket doesn't mwan its 12v.
Standard bulbs here are about $3 for a back of two..
The amount of current contained in one turn of the alternator is enough to light the bulb for quite a while. Your own driving style, inflation pressure and fuel grade will affect your mileage more than the bulbs in your car.
