I didn't think of that, but aren't latex allergies contact related? Latex doesn't give out nearly the amount of fumes that memory foam does. The stuff stinks.

Be aware that Memory Foam can cause allergies. They give out fumes for quite a while. I'd bought one and started getting a runny nose and sneezing. I didn't attribute it to the mattress. I mentioned the great mattress I got to a friend and he told me about his allergic reactions to one he'd bought. I slept on a…

Aren't these just yellow tinted polarized glasses? Do they do anything more than polarize and filter out blue? The markup on these is very high. I'd love to see online discount eye-glass stores like zenni optical offer alternatives.

I wrote a little utility that shows the various lock state and it doesn't stay in the system tray (I use auto hide)

Great recommendation, thank you. I used to use GridMove, but it's overkill for me.

Skip the defrag. Get an SSD.

Try seeing a good TCM (traditional Chinese medicine) doctor. I've seen some amazing results.

I'm acrophobic too. I pushed myself to go mountain climbing. It was scary, but I did it and enjoyed myself as well. I do go on ferris wheels, roller coasters and vertical drops (whatever they're called), I still get scared, but I do it anyway.

I use nircmd and the task scheduler to accomplish the same thing.

What I'd really like to see is a light-weight windows applications that shows the reminders without the calendar page open in a browser. A toast like notification in the bottom right would be ideal.

Yes, you can. On the left side, click the down arrow next to "My Calendars" and click "Create Calendar". You can then check and uncheck which calendars you want to see.

You can use a halogen table lamp. But most of the eye strain is probably coming from the monitor. Try using a black background if possible and dimming your screen.

Anyone know of local places that take used batteries to recycle/dispose of properly? I'm in DFW if it matters.

One of the dumbest articles posted here.

What's a good place to get reasonably priced Ceylon White Tea? I don't like Chinese White Tea, I find the Ceylon one has a fresh more invigorating taste. I used to buy Bentley's unflavored white tea many years ago and it was superb, however they changed their supplier, now their white tea is from China and it's awful.

Here's a little timer I wrote. It's small, very light-weight and free.

The interface is pretty good right now. Quick and Stable. I use the web version and the Android one and both are great and I haven't looked back at evernote since. Evernote supposedly offered OCR on the photo attachments, but it hasn't worked for me. So Evernote doesn't offer me anything more.
