  1. How about us meat eaters? on Creatine Found to Boost Brainpower · · Score: 2

    Note that the trial was done on vegetarians, as meat contains creatine and thus meat-eaters already get some in their diet. I can't see any tests done that suggest supplementing the dose has any significant affect for those of us that already get creatine from meat.

    It's probable that most of us have some sort of genetic 'disorder'. It depends what you regard as a disorder.

    Note that the 85% 'spontaneous abortions' mentioned above does NOT lead to those wonderful few days women have every month. The parent was referring to 15% of all inception, i.e. 15% of all ovum that become fertilised. Those wonderful days occur every month without ovum being fertlised, and 85% of months that the ovum are fertlised. Well, sometimes they can also occur when pregnancy successfully occurs, and other times will not occur even when there is no pregnancy.

    NB: No idea if percentages are correct, following numbers of above post.

  19. Re:Size of the fine... on EU Says Microsoft's Abuses Are Ongoing · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I think I read the maximum they can fine is 10% of worldwide operations. And they usually fine at 2%. This puts the max around $3.2 billion (according to what I read). And so 2% would be a little under $1 billion.

    This isn't about the EU wanting to 'make a difference'. This is about the EU wanting MS to abide by the laws it is trading (in the EU) under.

    It was however outside of UK territorial waters at the time it was claimed. And as such was not under UK law. The UK extender their territorial waters around it when it was claimed. The legal/political position is a little unclear, however a UK judge has previously declared he had no authority over it as it wasn't part of the UK.
