@seven5suited: North Korea looks almost pristine, should be fun, too.

@DigitalSciGuy: Thanks, I'll give that a try too.

Nice article, would definitely try it out. Question though, what happens after you wash it? Wipe the liquid up with a sponge? Paper towel? Reusable cloth?

@SpudDude: LOL, thanks for the advice. Another time it was at a large clothing store, my gf went, tried stuff on, waited in line and they looked at the my card and said: "Do you have a card with a magnetic chip?" "I'm afraid not" "Then you'll have to pay cash" "... What?!" "Sorry that's how it works" [manager comes…

@SpudDude: Yeah, it seems that way, but some stores just told me outright they won't do it, not even try. Just letting people know what could happen. You got better luck than me.

@Sikbug: My folks told me if it gets cold at night, the environmental factors may cause Bell's palsy "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell's_palsy" and paralyze some parts of your face. I'm not sure if leaving the windows open when sleeping is a good idea but I keep them closed.

When traveling in the UK, you US issued credit card might NOT work. Last time I was in London, they asked for a security magnetic chip credit card and refused to take my plain old US credit card (ironically I was trying to buy some KFC).

@ffejie: Mind sharing your solution? Or are you just on 24/7 when that happens?

On the chart, when they say an oven uses 2.3kWatts, it's an electric one right? LOL @ Incandescent bulb(60W) - 60 Watts.

I've found logMeIn a good application but very intrusive on my PC. There are various services (besides the logmein service and some updater) running in the background and an uninstall does not remove all components. Thus I'm a little scared to install their client on any machine. Am I crazy?

@Guard: Thanks. I never knew the difference between sleep and standby but I guess I'm using too much xp. My shut-lib behavior has been changed so now standby is my top choice too.

@Guard: I do, however, experience battery drain on hibernate, it could be close to the amount when completely shut down. Having a cold start faster than waking up from hibernate is a first for me, although theoretically, reading a couple of gigs can take a long time.

From my experience:

Is that person washing blood off of his/her hands?

Why would Google give it up as a free app when Eric and Steve are not at best terms? I'm still impressed with Nokia's since their app does not require a data plan.

@theamazingpete: Agreed. I'm more against the way Apple closes down their OS, produces computers on only their hardware and claims their computers are better.

While this is a good tip, I use ominibar instead. It does the job and combines ctrl-k and ctrl+l together.
