Only because there was no other way to have Microsoft Office on their machines. The cost of installing/maintaining/patching/upgrading is huge. Putting the apps on a central server will save a metric asston of money.
For now I'll stick to my original assertion that there's enough different diets and cultures in the world for any miracle lifestyle to have shown itself by now.
Semi-starvation has been the norm for a lot of people for much of human history.
Interpol's own constitution forbids them from getting involved in cases where a crime wasn't committed in more than one member country and where the punishment is less then 12 months in prison.
This case fails on both counts. The fact that they're involved at all is clear evidence of corruption at the highest level....and has been pointed out on many occasions, women are raped every day. Really raped. Beaten senseless afterwards and dumped out of the backs of vans in alleyways. Traumatized and afraid to go outside for the rest of their lives. Even so it's very difficult to get the police involved and almost impossible to start a manhunt unless it's a serial rapist.
And here we have an international manhunt over a broken condom. It's a complete perversion of justice and an insult to all the women who've ever really been raped.
It wasn't due to genetic capacity because nearly anyone is capable of running 50 miles in a week (the max considered by the study)
Very few people actually run 50 miles per week. Picking those people out of a population for a study is the very definition of selection bias and absolutely allows for genetic differences.
no evidence...apart from the lack of really old people.
Even if the method still needs some 'fine tuning' you'd think there'd *something* to measure after nearly 80 years.
It's soooo reliable in rats, causing 100% (one hundred percent!) lifespan increase but we're still not above background noise results in humans? Something tells me it's not working.
Two economists are walking down the street. They see a hundred dollar bill lying on the pavement. They stand there for a while and watch several bank managers come along, pick it up, inspect it and put it down again.
One bends down to pick it up. "Don't bother," says the other, "if it was real one of those bankers would have kept it."
I'm not sure which part of "reasonable lifestyle" is confusing you.
PS: Correlation isn't causation. Maybe people who are good at (or enjoy) running in middle age also have other genetic differences. If you pick out the "runners" from a population you might really be selecting some other factor.
80+ isn't very old for humans (in fact it's the average in many countries these days...)
A miracle diet for humans would have to do a lot better than that. eg. Calorie restriction in mice makes them live twice as long.
Even a 25% increase in human lifespan would mean people could make it to 150 but that's simply not happening. Not with any known diet or lifestyle.
Given the vast range of lifestyles/diets all over the world you'd think we'd be able to measure something if diets/lifestyles really made much of a difference.
There's no shortage of people looking for a miracle diet/lifestyle so I'm sticking with Occam's razor for now.

I read an article on this about six months ago. It's public knowledge, yes.
The guy with the controls in his hands and a locked cabin door behind him needs to be searched to see if he's carrying a weapon. Makes sense, right?
Hope they did 'sux' and 'blowz' as well...
All the fighters took longboats over to Scotland (where they remain feisty to this day).
Basic math is easy enough for nobody to have an excuse for not knowing it.

Corporations set up their own internal server.
The problem with local applications is that they're a pain in the ass for corporations to administer.
I'll believe it when I see it.

OK, +1 informative...
Probably waiting for what's know as "the right price".
I heard they want him in Sweden because it's much easier to extradite him to the USA from there. Don't know if it's true but it makes sense.
Has the USA decided which of their laws he's broken yet or are they still trying to find something...?

We can point to plenty of things that make your life shorter, eg. eating nothing but junk food...
Actually, diet is very important to your health and eating correctly DOES make you live longer than someone eating fries everyday.
Isn't that what I said?
Almost.
Not running five miles a day might make you live less.
Running might help you achieve your your programmed lifespan but it won't extend it.
Um, the "twins" study was about telomeres, not longevity.
You're presuming there's a link between the two. As far as we know the long telomeres=long life thing only works in mole rats.
There's entire societies of calorie restriction proponents out there, and have been for many years, including many doctors.

Please point us to the line on that page that says that it works in humans...
You seriously think no occidental has ever tried the seaweed diet...?
