Reminds me of “Sunrise Earth”:

Yeah, that’s kind of my point. There are alternatives, but there’s no major competitor for Office. These are minor players that don’t present a real alternative to Office. There’s no Android to compete with iOS in this case.

Well, this is my point, really. You like Office, I don’t care for it. That’s fine. If this is the solution for you, then more power to you.

It continuously amazes me that Microsoft Office is still the only game in town. From an end-user experience, the product has never been very good. Sure, they’ve made improvements, but the workflow has never been fantastic. It’s a mediocre user experience and I have no idea why someone else doesn’t have a competing…

Duh.

He does realize that this is just a big invitation for someone to do it again?

I thought it was great. I loved Jon Stewart, but it’s great to infuse the show with new blood. I’ll tune in tomorrow (you know, when tonight’s show is on Hulu).

Don’t mince words, Albert. Tell us how you really feel.

Personally, I'd go with telekinesis for the simple reason that it can be the basis of other powers- such as flying. If you can use your mind to throw a Buick, why not yourself?

True, but I think you are taking the Earth's stability for granted. The solar year and solar cycles that you mention are regular celestial events that can be accurately measured and predicted. If Westeros has an eccentric orbit or wobbly tilt as the article suggests, then that regularity wouldn't exist, and using…

Well, that's partially true. We currently measure years by the Earth's orbit around the sun. However, before our "ancients" discovered astronomy, they measured time based on more down-to-earth methods. For instance, time was based on growing crops- when to plant, when to harvest, etc.

This plan is pointless. The Earth's core will have cooled long before any of this is even a concern. Without a molten iron core spinning around the center of the planet, the Earth will cease to have a magnetic field. No magnetic field, no protection from solar radiation. The Earth gets roasted anyway.

If memory serves, Gordon Gekko was the antagonist in Wall Street. Just saying.

"Plus, take a look at America now, many are living like peasants. The middle class is shrinking, many moving into poverty levels. And the poorer are getting poorer."

Dude, if you didn't post this, I was going to. And I make the same "gesture".

One of the big problems with weight loss is the obsession with weight loss. We shouldn't be worried about how fat we are, we ought to be worried about how healthy we are. You can be unhealthy being skinny as well. People starve themselves to get skinny- and it's insane.

If you eliminate a lot of things from your diet, you will lose weight- including carbs. That doesn't necessarily mean it's a healthy choice to make, nor does it address the underlying causes of obesity. We eat an insane amount of fat and carbs in this country.

I'm sorry, but Myth # 2 said nothing about diabetes. It said that eliminating carbs won't make you lose weight. I doubt they would disagree with the connection between consuming carbs in excess and diabetes. Carbs in moderation are fine.

I agree. What HFCS does is make sugar cheap. Cane sugar is a lot more expensive by comparison. Sugar sells because it tastes good, and removing that economic barrier means it gets into EVERYTHING. It doesn't help that corn is subsidized by the government, whereas sugar cane isn't (I don't think, I could be wrong…

When it comes to corn syrup, I don't think that it's any worse than any other sugar out there. The problem with it is that it makes sugar cheap. That makes it easy to add into EVERYTHING.
