Testosterone is a double edged sword. Too much and you get acne, balding, and it promotes prostate cancer.
Hard to Watch While on a Treadmill

· Score: 2, Interesting
I find it is hard for me to keep my eyes focused when I watch TV while using a treadmill. I'd think it would be even more difficult to try to focus on text on a monitor and use a keyboard/mouse too. There is the issue of sweat getting on the keyboard and mouse. A stationary bike might work though.
I read in "Smart Ass Mechanics" Magazine that Toyota is going to start putting in "regenerative windmills" on every vehicle to maximize efficiency during highway driving. When you car goes above 50mph a giant fan will deploy above you, capturing all of that wind energy that you'd otherwise lose and charging the batteries with it.
"We see you are being owned, could we interest you in a Logitech controller?" "You've been playing for 13 hours straight, click here to see free information on pressure sore care and heart disease." "Wow, your reflexes really suck! How about some Red Bull?" "We've noticed you always play the Axis in BF1942. Could we interest you in some Nazi memoriabilia?" "GTA fan, click on this ad for a special offer from Glock firearms."
I suspect the case of LEDpox that all gizmos seem to have today is mainly due to the relatively new commercialization of superbright compact LEDs. They are new! They are sorta cheap! They make things like, you know, all high tech like. Look back at the 70's when small LCDs really started to appear on the market. For some reason manufacturers thought that everything needed a small LCD clock embedded in it (probably even pacemakers). In the 50's it was making everything look aerodynamic, as if your toaster was getting ready to hit mach 2.
With rule #1 you don't need rules 3 and 4 (subject to appeal). That way they don't loose the right to sue if they really do have a legit claim. It also protects them if they happen to be filing in a district with a biased judge. "Sorry boy, you can't go su'n no whites only diners..."
I was prepared to be sympathetic for the guy when I started reading the article but he ends up sounding like a childish jerk. He even uses the 4 yr old's favorite excuse, "But everyone else was doing it too!"
The thing I can't understand is why his employer, NOAA, had to use Google to find out about his past employement record. Isn't that sort of information shared between government agencies?
He won't get hired as a CEO, maybe as a junk bond investor though.
TFA didn't make it 100% clear but the reason for the investigation is that someone (or more) had set up a place in Second Life where you could pay to enter and see REAL kiddie porn in addition to simulated.
I still question whether you can call Scientology a religion at all. I think for a group to claim a nonprofit status as a religion it should be required to offer free religious services and only request donations. Scientology requires big $ to pass through their hurdles. That is a business, not a religion.
Not if it was just endless shooting and acid sprays. Alien 1 did more with a minimum of gore. Hack and slash fests like 300 or the LOTR battle scenes get boring very fast.
Maybe they could have a explorer or survey team with only a few weapons stumble onto an alien nest world. They'd have to survive until they got rescued. It could even have different species of them (cannibalization?) and other creatures they compete with (they gotta eat something). Alien Ecosystem, the movie.
Of course the LOTR people had a hugely popular book to work from so they had some confidence that budgeting 3 movies worth of cash wasn't a complete gamble. You can't say the same for this Terminator proposal. All you have to go on is 1 good movie, one ok movie with good special effects, and one blah movie and no book leading the way.

I'm going to have to start adding tags to some of my comments.

Bah, REAL, 733t hackers just look at the code and picture the graphics output in their head.
Actually it makes a lot of sense, and is environmentally friendly, if you connect an air-out duct from your PC to your clothes dryer or your oven.
Eventually he'll end up spending more time corresponding with his fans than working on his music.

Santa would approve!
No, they'll be canceled out by an increase in tropical diseases. Now please, go back to your government approved bubble of denial.

This article need the proper background music before reading it.

There, that's better.

That is why Osama Bin Laden now goes by the name "Dick Cheney"
"Yah c'nt bury me, yoo got na ashes!"
Can we rename MTV then? They have nothing to do with music anymore. How about "Constantly Repeating Awful Programs" or CRAP.

Ok, how about "Alien, The Comedy"? You could have Woody Allen in an Alien costume.
And conservative Christians hate liberals. Plenty of hate to go around!
There are liberal Christians but they don't get counted of course.
You assume of course that you can actually call Scientology a religion.

Walk with your eyes closed? Red tipped cane sales will go up.
