Bodybuilders use this stuff. It works like magic. Its safe within the right dosage, but the right dosage is very narrow. The space between no effect, good effect, and death by fever and coma is a handful of milligrams. And it accumulates in the body over a space of more than 24h.
The human greed factor is the real problem. Its too easy to swallow an extra pill and end up in the hospital. Ice water enemas suck, but they can keep you alive in most cases. (Yes - ice cold water in your rectum. Think about how fun that would be.)
But other than that, it is by leaps and bounds the most effective weight loss supplement that has ever been made, and probably ever will be.

Now, put it together. 0.7 C * 2 = 1.4 C. A simple conciliatory observation: Yes, global warming is real. No, it isn't bad enough to justify anything other than slight caution.
Perhaps hunger for grants and funding are to blame for this wide-spread panic? Or is it just plain old chum?
Caveat Emptor. Ya know, the pediatrician recommended circumcision for my boy, of all things, but, like many doctors, he's Jewish.
Sir, I've been waiting patiently for 3 weeks to get an IP address for my equipment. Could you please get off your worry-free, lapse-proof ass and actually do something?
Remember, the road of high technology is paved mainly by young single people with tons of disposable income. (Do a mental inventory of all the 'cool electronics' your parents own. Yep, it all dates before you, except maybe for the TV.)
Remember that magical point in time somewhere around the Geforce 2 era when it was more important to upgrade the video card, and the processor didn't really matter? Gee, I wonder why today's video cards are far more advanced than today's processors?
Is it an African or Asian elephant? Depending on that, one might have an easier time...especially if it is an aborted fetus, those are actually fairly light.
Great point...there's a sucker...erm I mean a soccer mom born every minute. At 6 am on Black Friday, all the world's jooz and the two-digit IQ's are packed into meaty, sweaty lines and fight over shopping carts for last year's styles. And they'll be back next year.
Its the same concept as the fake "store closing" that furniture stores do every other year like clockwork. People don't even realize that half the time they're paying MSRP - 5 or 10%, hardly a good deal.
+1. Hey, you have to admit, NI products are great for job security. Once you've built it, there is no other person on god's green earth who will ever be able to decipher your "code"
Personally, I'm strong believer in the phrase "idle hands are the devil's workshop". Its human nature, people get bored and mischievous when they have nothing to do.
Subsidizing idleness results in people with nothing better to do. The only way to kill the boredom is to do drugs.
And they go out and prove reefer madness is real. They smoke dope, kill each other in the street, steal the shoes, and then they go on the radio and brag about it. If that ain't madness I don't know what is.
Gorgeous women are profligate by nature. Use that to your advantage by establishing draconian fiscal discipline. Grumble about "retirement", the "poor economy", note every expenditure and require an explanation. Don't hold back, be a gigantic dick about it.
Then, when you get lucky, conveniently forget about the budget for awhile.
Its all about the instinctive nature of the female sexual mind. Historically, continually having sex leads to too many kids, so an instinct to avoid sex would be important in preventing a woman from overburdening herself. But if you throw a little game in, she will pick up on the deal instantly; sexual bargaining is hard-wired in your favor here. All you have to do is remain firm, since she'll probably be stubborn about it at first. It's an integral part of that hard-wiring: A "firm" provider is one who will keep providing, therefore it is "safe" to have more kids...got that Mr. Cave Man?
After the routine is established, every time she wants to buy something your dick will get wet.
There ya go, a simple solution for a ubiquetous, complicated, and eternal problem.
I wouldn't be surprised if some of those addresses were snuck off into corporate-land anyway, due to upcoming massive value increases.
The same situation happened in the United States when the phone service ran out of 1-800 toll-free business numbers. Nobody wanted the new 1-888 business numbers because they make you look like a fly-by-night, or scam operation. Not classy at all. Even today, over a decade after the fact, you'll notice that sales lines still tend to be given the preferred 1-800 slot, and the non-front-line items like technical support are given the black sheep format.
Its gonna be even worse since with IPV6 you're definitely going to lose customers in legacy land. Mark my words, the value of these spots will increase drastically in the coming months.
I disagree...innovators tend to educate themselves. I think today it is Internet addiction biting us. Although it may seem funny, it is really not...
I watched many smart people fail out of my alma mater because they stuck their heads in the sand and did raids in WoW instead of going to class and facing that competitive, time-consuming course load.
A former roommate, who would have other wise easily made it through the engineering curriculum, is now working for Colonel Sanders.
We're in the information age, not the relevant information age. The classroom environment is quickly becoming outmoded and irrelevant. Things like Facebook and WoW simply serve to further enforce conformance to a moronic social averages.
No, it is well known that women are more social ...thus more manipulative ...thus receive less punishment growing up ...thus spend less time facing their inner spoiled brats ...thus easily make it to "mature child" status (where you hide your inner brat for social reasons) but have trouble getting to the "mature adult" stage (the inner brat becomes enlightened through trial and error)
Its the same idea when you get everything handed to you and you never have to work hard....you never get good and you never appreciate what you have:)
Drinking leads to arrogance, and that arrogance subtly follows into your sober life whether you want it to or not...hence more mouth flapping, a more easily bruised ego, and less focus on the important stuff in life (ex. peace, abundance)...
human nature dictates that you will always think you can get away with being two different people, but common sense, reality, and history say otherwise
Argh, I felt the need to elaborate more: You only hear poor people say that money can't buy happiness, because no matter how much they make they're spending it until its in short supply, hence a life of constant cash crisis.
Definitely reasonable....they're right, you could cheapskate your way through a project like this, but not with seasoned and competent professionals.
The reality is that computer people are becoming very scarce. There is so much work out there, and less people to do it. (Lets face it, if you have a niche and can bill out at $120.00/hr, you're quickly going to get bored of money and do your own thing in the bahamas...thus reducing the labor pool)
HOWEVER, a lot of people are being *tricked* into thinking the labor market isn't as tight as it is, citing the "recession", the latest bogus-excuse-in-vogue to implement scare tactics and pin-head cost-cutting measures. The armed forces does the same thing to scare people into re-enlisting. That is why you still see graduates and experienced people getting paid sub-50k and getting treated like dirt, because of some vacant threat of outsourcing. (Well, other than game programming, which is probably the most under-appreciated, under-paid, and over-worked career I can think of. Looking at DoL statistics, the only the only career paths you can see going way up are Acct/Math, CS, and Biomedical Engineering, all during a massive recession.)
Hey, I've made quite a sum cleaning up outsourced projects that went bad, usually due to simple human nature. Programmers tend to point the finger at hardware when something goes wrong. (Hardware people tend to do likewise.) That is why you have test engineers...you need an objective third party to identify problems and triage. Code sweatshops are inundated with crumbs...oh, sorry, I mean clients....who don't want to pay for engineers...they don't have time to do it right, and they don't have to do it right, as the demand far exceeds their supply. If the project enters crisis mode they just give up and move on to the next project, and leave their clients in the dust. No professional I know would ever do that, even if they were losing money on the contract, because they have a solid work ethic and a reputation to protect.
See, being physically present in a room full of mugs involved in a delayed or at-risk project is totally different than swapping emails from across the globe. That guy over in India has no need to care, no personal knowledge of the spouses and children on the other end, no idea how much sweat and toil went into it. Vice versa as well.
So any way, its a wash in the end, simply because demand is high and supply is low. The whole "global" supply thing doesn't belong in the same category because human nature simply prevents that sort of thing from working perfectly. Ya know, according to the bookworm economist, if all women were whores, then sex would be free, since supply is instantly renewable, and the the marginal cost of a blow job is nothing, right. Well, factor in appearance and dignity, (ergo, human nature) and you've got another situation (a model that actually follows reality):D
So, if you're hurting, there are some simple steps to take in order to pull yourself out of your black hole in an otherwise slam dunk career environment:
1. If your neighbor needs help with a computer, refer him to one of your buddies who fixes them. He'll return the favor some day, and you didn't have to work for free. (Not convinced? You are LEGALLY LIABLE to replace said computer if you make it "worse", even if you're working for FREE.)
2. Avoid accepting a lowball offer. Under no circumstances accept less than 20/hr or I will personally come and thwack you with an idiot stick. Awhile back I got an offer in a big expensive city for 40k before I graduated. Sounds like big money when your broke, but looking back, thank god I turned it down.)
3. Related to above: Save. Stupid people think money exists solely to buy things. Smart people know that money == "fuck you". The more "fuck you" you have, the more nimble you can be in your career, and the more "fuck you" you can accumulate. Low risk = low ba
Not for long. Ethiopia and Nigeria have plenty of hard working people, and with rural wages at around $5/yr, the only thing China has going for it is the existing infrastructure.

Sigh.
We've consumed about 50% of the world's total supply of conventional crude
The global temperature has risen about 0.7 deg C since 1900
Now, put it together. 0.7 C * 2 = 1.4 C. A simple conciliatory observation: Yes, global warming is real. No, it isn't bad enough to justify anything other than slight caution.

you get to have fun figuring out how your brain will work
when your balls drop.
Have fun!
