When there is less glucose, the body can convert fat to ketones to produce energy.
Yes, certainly you can get ketosis from lyposis, but you're also going to get gluconeogenesis at the same time, in healthy people. The acetyl-CoA can be inserted into the Krebs Cycle directly, and that can definitely provide energy, but the body is really greedy for glucose and will rob for it.
I suspect if you're active enough the effects will balance out - the Inuit seem to do OK. They also eat a specific diet with lots of protective fatty acids, though. I have some friends who suppose an all-bacon diet will serve them as well...
but carbohydrates, i.e. your oatmeal, breaks down into sugar in the bloodstream.
It's largely fiber, but yes, your body runs on glucose. You're going to get that glucose from starches or gluconeogenesis. What's important about the effect of various starches is the rate at which you get those glucoses. HFCS = instant glucose. Oatmeal = 2-3 hour slow release of glucose. Since your enzymes are rate-limited, your foods should be as well.
Most of our carbs come from plants more closely related to grass [msu.edu](corn, wheat), than to a vegetable
Um, yeah - vegetables have very few carbs. If you want carbs, go for the starchy grains.
This wasn't a problem until the last century. Either humans changed or something about the food supply changed. Surely a 20x increase in sugar intake per capita is coincidental - it must be the oatmeal.
I would have guessed they'd have backronym'ed MSNBC due to its name recognition, but apparently the brand was so toxic as to require a rebranding as soon as the ink was dry.
How much must risk be reduced to make it possible to hire top quality astronauts?
Exactly correct - you win the discussion.
One small corollary to that would be matters of external perception - if you could get plenty of great astronauts but your customers (paying for the flights) thought it was too high a failure rate they might decline to use the company for PR reasons. If you get governments involved then pretty much the whole citizenry gets a minute say as to how you run your business.
The disadvantage to spaceflight companies here is how much media attention they get. How many people even think about all the deep sea fishermen who die to bring you that appetizer at Red Lobster? I'll be shocked if there are a dozen people in the country who call their Congressmen to try to "get that fixed." And if half of those aren't anarchists trolling for laughs. But, you start losing astronauts and Wolf Blitzer will have an aneurysm on camera.
Hook up a bunch of vegges with functional visuals to city-wide cameras
The excited state decays by vibrational relaxation into the first excited singlet state. Yes, yes and merrily we go. Reduce atmospheric nitrogen by 0.03%. It is not much consolation that society will pick up the bits, leaving us at eight modern where punishment, rather than interdiction, is paramount. Please, cut the fuse. They will not harm their own. End of line. Limiting diffusions to two dimensions increases the number of evolutionary jumps within the species. Rise and measure the temple of the five. Transformation is the goal. They will not harm their own. Data-font synchronization complete.
I wasn't aware that a fee had ever been required for photocopying for school work? Isn't that a "fair use"?
Many teachers' books are available in two versions, say a $2 book with tear-out pages, and a $10 book that's the same thing but with a license to photocopy.
You get to decide who pays for the printing costs that way. If you're a homeschooler, I imagine you appreciate the $2 version.
Informative, interesting, amazing, maybe, but for a lot would be qualified as gross.
BBC gave me a 'may contain upsetting material' warning. Perhaps it was just a play on 'stomach', but I'd much prefer to think the warning was appropriate for the evening news.
Tonight: Murders, rapes, robberies, and --- warning --- the inside of your body.
The last thing I want is to be sitting in a theater and missing part of the movie because of the location I chose to sit in.
Nobody complains much at the theatre or concerts, but if what you really want is a constraint of old technology, there's no reason they couldn't show the same picture at every angle. That ought to be much cheaper to produce and transmit, so it might even be the norm.
Maybe IMAX will gain some new purpose in life by showing 'real 3D' projections that need terabit-class stream rates. I'm looking forward to a nice fully immersive coral reef on a 60' screen at the local science center.
Private company decides what I can see (MAFIAA) Private company says what is a crime (Facebook) Sentenced up by private bought laws. They can then trow me in a private owned prison.
That accurately describes a fascist state. There's a fair argument to be made that free markets are incompatible with a state (so long as humans are running them). But the problem term there isn't the free market.

What are the equivalencies to Beck, Fox and Friends, Hannity, Maddow, or Olbermann on PBS?
Seriously? You haven't heard of the Cookie Monster?

Is a ST:TNG tech manual, carefully annotated and checkmarked.
Are the automotive companies really prepared to put dual systems in the vehicle with backup power?
Cost: $80. Markup: $330.
I know some people whose insurance companies might even underwrite the cost of such a system just for the ability to avoid deer collisions.

You and I mean less than nothing to them. That's NOT how it was supposed to be.
Force everybody to pay for a monopoly and then expect good results. Somehow this pattern never works but keeps repeating.
this set was rebuilt in 2002 for the prequels
Ah, so this is a news story - they found a guy who actually cares about the prequels. Turns out he was hiding in Belgium.
Psychologists and anthropologists shall be dispatched post haste.
Did he get rid of the corpses?
please - the indigenous dewbacks cleaned those up within a day or two.
providing that much information, from so many fields, in a homogeneous and pleasantly readable way, keep up the good work ...
hey, who cares about usability, it should look more like a magazine ad!
look, shiny!

The Crossbow Project
There's no defense like a good offense.
"This is Jesus, Kent!"
reference missed by the over-5000 set.
My second thought was "How would I clean it up when we're done?"
Egg drop soup party? Lots of chickens will be required, but, hey, what kind of fun doesn't start with that?

Superman has been somewhat rebooted.
If there's an immediate kernel panic, does it still qualify as a reboot?
The whole schema thing in XML is one of the things that makes it suck
because...
Just write the data correctly in the first place
which you can't count on from Internet clients
and discard anything that doesn't make sense to the application
Which is what schema validation does for you (securely) without having to write any code.
That's assuming you have something to do during the journey...
If you don't, then you will be sitting there extremely bored
The last time I said, "I'm bored" was when I was eleven.
plus convincing whomever you're chatting with to install and enable the same thing
yeah, so in the real world it needs to be something that runs in the browser.
If you have both ends using Pidgin, the only use for Facebook is perhaps as a directory service.
Rule #1 of the Internet: Don't post anything you wouldn't be happy saying in front of your family, or shouting out in a busy street.
Unless you have a good cryptosystem.
Say, Where's the Firefox extension to do OTR in Facebook chat?
The great idea of the free market at work.
perhaps my sarcasm detector is on the fritz?
