No, because the height and weight chart is just a very rough estimate and isn't used beyond that. To get a much better determination a caliper is normally used, along with accurate waist/height/weight measurements.
When you use cash it hurts (taken from Dave Ramsey). Using a credit card diminishes that 'hurt'. He talked of a study that when McDonalds put in credit cards the average sale went up by 47% (Source: http://www.daveramsey.com/article/the-truth-about-credit-card-debt/)
Waving or scanning your phone diminishes it even more.
This is more about getting you to spend more than it is about just providing a new way to pay.
Ok, lets assume you get a space ship and cyro sleep going and set sail. In 10 years, the technology has doubled. Another ship is launched that can overtake yours and beat it there by 10%. In 10 more years, tech technology doubles again. Another ship is launched that beats your arrival time by 15% and the second ship by 10%. In 10 more years...
You get the picture, and it bring up a zillion other questions to answer. Like the biggest one, who's going to ok a fund for such a massive expensive project in the first place if they know a faster ship will be able to beat there later?
If you have played SC1, and you got bored of it, don't bother with SC2. I figured it would be a massive upgrade in gameplay. Something radical in terms of the game.
Its an expansion pack. Seriously. New maps, new vehicles. Everything else is the same ol thing. In some ways, its more boring than SC1.
I uninstalled the beta after a few days and won't be buying it unless I hear that the single player game is just (somehow) amazing.
"As in, he has fMRI experts read his mind as to whether he's actually more turned on by his young wife or Angelina Jolie. The results, unsurprisingly, are both geeky and hilarious. Would you subject yourself to this kind of reality check?"
Depends on how cute his young wife is - but I'd give it a shot.
1) Don't let anyone mine/pick anything that there skill level makes gray to them. So I take herbalism and level up. Now I pick alchemy. Well damn - now I can't make anything to level it because with your moronic idea I can't gather any of the needed mats.
2) put some random drift into movement. So my character is constantly drunk. Are you thinking before writing this drivel?
3) limit the price you can sell something for on the AH to 10 times what a vendor would pay So BoE epics epics that sell for 2k now are capped at 85 gold. Gathered items for professions (which are intentionally set low to deter chinese/bot farming) that sell for 20-40g a stack now go for 1g. Brilliant brain!
4) don't allow the transfer of more then 100GP a time. Maybe a one time unlimited amount per month. So now in order to send 1,000g to my alt I have to sit at my mailbox.. or code a bot to do it... to send 100g 10 times.
Any other great ideas there Nostradamus of Warcraft?
I was raised in a military family, I've been to more parties than I could count. The miltary probably spends a hundred times more per year. And where does the money go?
Caterers bringing the food get paid. They got their food from somewhere, so whoever that is gets paid. That food was trucked in by someone, who gets paid. Farmers supplying the food get paid. And thats just the food.
People seem to think its a total waste of taxpayer money.

Republicans.

Thats not the point. Look again why the tax is being put there in the first place.
The article didn't mention a thing about curing cancer. It even specifically stated it could help in the treatment of it. Reading ftw.

Samsung Omnia i910 (might be a new version out by now). Mine rocks. The wifi in it is top notch.
Its a great machine and all, but I can't imagine trying to use it on a plane for any real length of time.

...to answer this question.
Probably about 25 million years.
He was attempting to be funny.
Yes, and they obviously don't see into the future when the system pays itself off and actually begins to save money...
How much would that have cost to put on his roof?
I think he's stalking me.

How about heating the air/water in front of the hurricane? Who says this tech has to be made for good intentions?
Ok I've been watching '24' too much.
Trivial? Yes. Stupid? Yes again.

The inverter doesn't add that much. You can get grid tied inverters for as low as $300. $1500 is around average.
Focus your attention to the US - not overseas. HERE is where we need development in solar.
* There are ZERO nuclear plants in the works to be built.
* There hasn't been an order for a new nuclear reactor since early 1970s.
* The last nuclear reactor to be built was completed in 1996
Never underestimate he magnitude of lemmings who blindly follow those who talk the loudest yet have no clue what they are actually talking about.

Roommate who was a math major in college said the same thing, I agreed. Then one of my good friends in Aikido won 1.2 million later that semester.
I don't think he gives a !@#$ if you think he's bad at math...
Bravo! :)
"300 and 400 GB.
(Wish I could say it was for something good and I was downloading warez and pr0n -- it was all for work)"
300-400 GB!?
Thats up to 20 GB a day for a normal workweek. If you do that much for 'work' your employer should be footing your bill for a business line.
Just what exactly do you do that requires you to download that much data in a single day?
...be going against a very fast typist that is manually recording the exact same thing with a pad of paper and a pair of $12 binoculars?
"To me, wiping out the little-guys was never an option - there is just no way that we could hope to kill all diseases."
I disagree. I have no doubt there will be a point in the future where you will tell a nano machine 'this is a virus' and it will go kill/remove it.
