I'm a native Upstater (Plattsburgh) now living in rural Kentucky. I have the opposite problem as most people think all of New York State looks like Manhattan.

The cover alone did it for me. Alien abduction was my biggest fear as a child.

I'm getting ready for two weeks of robotics camps by figuring out some fancy features on the new Lego Mindstorm EV3 Kit. I'm working on collecting data as part of a program and sending the data to my laptop. Ideally, the kids would program the robot through a WiFi connection and collect the data remotely, like a…

I am the one with knockers.

By "list of possibilities" she probably means "actors who are being speculated about on fan forums". I also don't think either actor would fit, but I'm not getting worked up until an official announcement has been made.

Just wanted to share some of this stuff with you guys since I haven't had a chance to talk about the 3D much. Hope you're all having a great day. Hi!

This was going to be my answer too. If I don't have a need for something, then I feel no pressure to buy it.

It's a shame I don't have time to find a rooftop tonight. We've been having some amazing storm clouds come by today. I got this from my front yard this afternoon.

We - my wife, two kids, and myself - did both parks between Christmas and New Years a few years ago. The best single attraction was Harry Potter World, but Disney had the best overall experience. Disney is very expensive, but they really make every part of the parks a quality experience.

I've had more success working out at home. As long as you are not doing any exercise like a bench press or squat that requires a spotter for safety reasons, you'll do fine. Also, your diet is more important than exercise for maintaining a healthy weight, so I'd start there.

This is the best advice ever.

Me too.

I went to graduate school in Milwaukee for mathematics. One Friday evening, some people from my topology class went to dinner, and we were discussing how to define a city to be "locally Milwaukee". Our definition is that every neighborhood had to contain at least one bar and at least one church. I see from this map…

I had forgotten that Atlanta was an Olympic city. I could have had some fun with this challenge when I was there last weekend.

Thanks to Keven Maher, I did know these things.

The problem I had with The Hunger Games isn't the first person, but the present tense. Usually first person novels are written in the past tense.

I gave up on Wheel of Time in two pages for this reason.
