With the Mango update of Windows Phone, QR codes became much better. I had used some of the free readers previously, but they weren't very good (light had to be perfect, centered, right size in the image, etc.). But now that it's built in to search, the reader is fast and accurate and will even read in lower light…

Not that I think it's real, but I believe it's brain-dead easy to get a student copy of Maya (or 3DS-Max).......sometimes you just make do with the tools you have. If I were pretending to make this, I probably would have used Maya (or 3DS-Max) because when I think 3D, those are the first two that come to mind…

His nemesis.......

I tell my daughters to ignore weight and focus on inches. Inches around the thigh, waist, chest, arm. I'd be happy with my weight if I were ripped......since I'm not, there's still work to be done.....but my belt is more telling of where I am than the scale is.

You should sell this little jingle to Bayer......they probably even have enough money to license the song from Disney.

Would you be able to prep a pitcher using your own exhale (slowly, likely).....a lidded pitcher similar to the one pictured might help, too.

I don't see these as defining positions so much as defining ROLES. A good team is going to have a big man who can score and a big man who can rebound depending on what the game currently needs.

I actually like that WP7 can't be screwed up by the manufacturer. I've bought in to the OS. Now I can focus on buying the best phone for the platform each upgrade cycle and not care who makes it. It should mean that the manufacturers will have to be competetive on hardware design, price, and specs because the skin…

There should be some ad categories that an author can use that are kid-friendly. I believe "family" or "kids" are typical categories.

Money you put in is ALWAYS yours. Company-match money may have a vesting schedule. The first company I worked for vested 20% per year over 5 years....so if I had left after 3 years, I would have received 60% of the money that had contributed......I actually waited until I had been there 5 years before changing jobs,…

But they could have just paid with cash (and left a decent tip).

VOTE: My Windows Phone 7 with Zune Music Pass and Unlimited Data.

You don't think that animals based their decisions on mountain ranges, rivers, and lakes? Migrating animals would need to avoid similar obstacles as a human in a car. Laying road in a valley is easier than flattening a mountain. A bridge over a narrow in the river is less costly than a bridge over the widest…

[nethack reference] Mmmmmm. Slime Molds! [/nethack reference]

Plus, your kids can mess with your grocery list on your WP7 phone while you're shopping.....

I love my WP7 device as well. I think Nokia is helping the image.....

I've solved this problem by informing my family of my preferences and not relying on a tick mark on my license. They always ask the legally responsible person (spouse, kids, etc.) if there is no marked indicator. Sure, I want to donate my organs when I'm done with them, but if there's a chance I'm not done with…

If it includes money, it needs to include the other motivators (it already includes some, so I'm not in disagreement with you about compensation). Does this job give me the flexibility to enjoy my personal life? Do I have enough personal time (vacation or work schedule or what have you)? etc.

This would be a great time for Pepsi to try their Crystal product again. [en.wikipedia.org]

They have a limit of 120pts per week (per account). That's 40 drinks per week.
