Don't want you guys to have to do any extra work or anything, but wouldn't this have been a lot better as a slideshow with the soundtrack running behind it? Having to wait on each still until the tune is over, or cut the tune off to see the next picture leaves more than a little to be desired...

I use the very nice RadioAlarm app, in which I have a workday alarm set for Mon-Fri, and it worked like a champ...

The major difference between the situation in Japan and Chernobyl is that the latter did not have a containment vessel. The fact is that even in the case of a total meltdown, in a modern reactor with standard safeguards, the nuclear material never gets hot enough to approach melting its way through the steel…

The article makes some good points, but one they missed is crucial to me: the snortcackling of the pigs when I fail is a huge incentive for me to keep trying until I beat them. They're such asshats!

2100+ of the nation's best scientists, members of the National Academies of Science, which is chartered to provide nonpartisan scientific advice to the U.S. Government for the past 150 years, beg to disagree with your piles of "no evidence".

Seems to me the people who invented the format get to decree how it should be pronounced: jif.

The one big flaw I can see in the "logic" of amortizing the cost of an SSD over several years of laptop upgrades is that it totally ignores the fact that while it may run you $500 for a 256Gb SSD today, in three years, laptops probably come with a 500Gb SSD standard.

I voted Pulse, even though I like Flipboard a lot... but what I want in a newsreader is a way to quickly scan the contents of a feed, and then get right to the full story on the articles I'm interested in. Pulse is great for that.

VOTE: Pulse

@Ignited_Impulse: Guess it's all in the eye of the beholder... I'm a big fan of cheese-TV, and Spartacus was some of the most cheese-tastic TV ever!

@Arken: mmmm.... Servalan. God I miss her!

@Hearthatvoiceagain has not been compromised: Ummmm... I'm guessing you've never actually seen the iPad version of Wired or the new Project magazine?

@The Werewolf: Tying yourself to one trendy platform is not too bright.
