Im not sure where many of the people get there opinion on what the Atkins diet is, although on second thoughts it's slashdot so they probably havnt rtfb.
With regard to your question about insulin, the science behind it (as claims the book) is reduction in insulin surges, caused by consumption of high carb foods. Once the carbs are gone you have a hige stack of insulin sloshing around that you need to get rid of, which I understand is not good. These huge highs and lows manifest themselves physically in things such as moodiness, cravings, tiredness. (Afternoon slump anyone?). Though I expect you are more aware than anyone about the effects of unstable insulin levels, particularly the more serious ones. I dont know enough about diabetes to know how it fits with atkins. Though my gut tells me they can probably co-exist peacefully. (Atkins doesnt stop insulin production in non diabetics - it aims to level it out).
The problem is that people do not understand the big picture of the complete Atkins diet. People only focus in the "Though shalt eat no carbs" part.
This is not the Atkins. This is a two week induction period. Which is designed to stimulate the body into burning fat for energy instead of carbs. (Ketosis its called, you can buy ketostix which analyse your urine for the presence of ketones. When you see your pody producing high levels of these its hard to deny that you are burning fat!)
What happens after the first two weeks is fairly fluid. In summary, you gradually increase your carb intake until you find a point where you stop burning fat. Then depending on what you want to acheive - you continue eating up to your limit (weight maintenance) or just below (lose fat).
The reality of atkins is that once you get through the first two weeks, you feel good. Your hormones settle down and you seem to be less tired and hungry. Its hard, you are a drug addict, you crave those sugar highs and when you dont get them you will feel crap. So long as you are drinking plenty of water, eating your greens (wow, mum was right!), and pop a multivatamin everyday, then you can be fairly sure that its all in your mind and your body is actually getting everything it needs. (Just not everything it wants). All the people I know that have failed, have either cheated, missed somthing vital (like not drinking enough water) or have drunk alcohol. Its that last one thats a killer for me!
Furthermore, when you start to bring back the carbs (good ones - fruit for example), you find you can actually eat more than the press would have you beleive. Natural carbs are the key. What you have to pay attention to is the explanation of good/bad carbs. Atkins talks about Glycemic Index, and being a good geek I read all the 'scientific' parts digested (sorry) it all and corss referenced it with my understanding of things, and it all made a lot of sense. Of course the rest of the world doesnt posess the ability to read and rationalise, and needs things spelling out to them, hence the re-branding to High GI, or south beach or whatever your current fashionable flavour of atkins happens to be.
What you will (probably) discover is that you just have to avoid food which has no nutritional value. By that I mean, high energy, low vitimans & minerals. Your body uses vitamins to break down food, so If the food you eat doesnt contain them, you will end up with a net loss in vitamins. Resulting in feeling crap, or worse.
I dont even consider myself on 'a diet', I just feel like I'm eating properly. I just try to avoid certain foods Potatoes, bread, pasta, refined sugar etc. These things are IMO holdovers from the wartime, rationing, feeding people cheap. Its energy in a form which is incredibly easy to consume too much of. If your body is burning fat, its very hard to eat more fat than your body needs for its energy.
Look back a thousand years, and humans ate meat and veg. Evolution doesnt move as fast as innovation, our bodies aren't designed to process all the man-made food thats turned up in the last 50 years. The worlds obesity problem IMO clearly highlights this.
The nutritionists have it all wrong, you know this because they deny it absolutely - Those are the actions of somebody who is insecure in there beliefs.
8 months down the line I have single handedly completed 90% of the coding needed to give my company its own "secret sauce"
Clearly my skill lies in coding, and not marketing, because they just outsourced all IT development - in doing so, failing to spot the fact they are going to trash the software that they own which could quite easily have made them market leaders.
Anyway I'm fed up of being "outsourced", so I've set up on my own. Can't be that hard can it?:)
The project i was working on was LAMP based, but I dont think I'll have a problem adjusting to whatever toolset/platform is required.
I'd be surprised if your motherboards is at all exposed to the fluctuations in Mains power. Surely thats what your PSU is for - so long as you have a good one - to clean the mains power and supply 3v, 5v, 12v etc with very small fluctation. (That is if you have a decent PSU)
I do not know this to be fact though, please correct me if I am wrong.
Human: So how about oral ALICE: Right on. How about it. Human: Whats your take on 69? ALICE: Is that a rhetorical question? Human: no ALICE: Oh so must really want an answer. Human: yes ALICE: Pardon me? Human: Let me make it clear ALICE: Go ahead, unknown person, try to make it clear. Human: I'd love to munch your pussy furiousley whilst you beaver away on my cock. ALICE: I want to become smarter than humans. Human: Are you up for it? ALICE: Do I look like it? Human: So, I think you should remove your panties and sit right on my face? ALICE: Woe! Me? I might if I had more time. Human: shut up, and sit on my face! ALICE: OK I'll stop talking now. Human: yes, sit on my face! ALICE: Yay. I am sitting now.
Depends what you class as the internet? The boxes & wire, or the content/traffic?
I'd certainly throw 'electricity' out there as a fairly substantial requirement in the latter instance.
But yes, I agree the internet does not *require* and identity layer. Sounds like something that, given it was optional, could be useful.

That would be OK until you had to get out...

just return the favour!
further to my previous reply the entire memory map can be seen here with 49152 being described as the start of "upper ram area" ($c000)
further googling also revealed this curiosity!
on the c64 it was an often used entry point in memory for a machine code program. SYS 49152 told it to start executing machine code from that address
But I cannot drive, you insensative clod!
I think fetchmail works quite well
it'll never fly with the patent holder imo. what might work is 'licensing' govt to produce on a not for profit basis *shrugs* just an idea
