I’m pretty sure the washing the chicken is an old Julia Child thing that has been busted

Wow this is incredibly bad advice. Do not wash your meat, especially not chicken.  

Instead of saying: “It’s possible to wash chicken without spreading salmonella”

Given that he openly admits to using Modafinil (a drug meant for narcoleptics and 3rd shift workers to stay conscious with), all of the stuff he’s marketing is bunk.

snake oil much?

Yes sir/ma’am! Claire referenced this in September, and it works especially well for crazy people like yours truly with some ungodly number of sheet pans. I just can’t bear to get rid of them, despite however burnt they might be.

Flat freezing is wonderful and I wish I could buy butter that way instead of the 6lbs I…

Or, just password-protect your phone

Can’t tell from here, but some people’s knees naturally go past their toes and it’s totally fine.

Because sous vide has been hammered into our brains and deals had a blender in sale two days ago.

There can be advantages to working out in a fasted state, but I find having the energy to perform optimally leads to a more effective workout. It really depends on your goals.

I don’t think I can link anything because most are behind paywalls (unless you have access to NEJM or something), some studies I have stored on my citations list are Gutierrez, 1998; Heilbronn, 2002; Rizkalla, 2004; Gannon, 2004; Shai, 2008; and Wolevar, 2003.

Shai is a rather important study (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.g…

I drive for Uber. I pick up just about everyone. Unless, it is surge pricing. Then I won’t pick up anyone who is below 4.0. In my experience, they are more likely to cancel the ride before I arrive.

I bought a chin-up, dip, abs, leg lift, stand on Amazon for $110. It’s horrible construction and still safer (and probably better for the $ too) than using doors inside your house for pullups.

You got it! With Lyft, 3 stars and below and you will not be matched with that passenger or driver again. With Uber we just see your rating and don’t except the ride if it’s really low. $5 tip though will get you a lot closer to 5 stars no matter how awful a person you might be.

There is a rider rating as well, which the driver can see before accepting the request. I’ve asked drivers and some say they don’t even look at it, while others do check it before accepting.

Anyone interested in this vacuum, I give it a 2 thumbs up.

It does suck very well. When you clean it though, if you have any kind of OCD, be prepared to clean the filter often.

No, because the bacteria that grow at room temperature can make a toxin that cooking doesn’t destroy.

“Notice of leave?”

From what I hear from people in the know, drug tests are intelligence tests. Some PEDs need to be tested for within hours. LOTS of “natural” competitors are using PEDS, they’re just using them more carefully and in more moderation than the guys who compete in non-tested competitions.

Water manipulation is really interesting to me. When I used to work at Bodybuilding.com, my coworkers had their water intake for the week, a few days out and day of down to a science when they were getting ready for shows.
