Re: turkey — Chicken, beef, pork, soybeans, and other foods contain as much or more tryptophan as turkey does per serving, so turkey isn't particularly special in that regard. And the causal relationship between tryptophan-rich food and sleep is dubious at best (even when eaten on an empty stomach as the article…

Don't let the somewhat clumsy "last-resort" example pictured above discourage you from reading the article, which is excellent. It's an interesting read even if you don't need to design a logo at the moment.

Wow, Simmons called this one, right down to the nature of the 8th arrest (DWI). So, Simmons got something right. One sign of the apocalypse down, six to go.

Yeah, Dr. Venture, I noticed that, too. So add identity theft to the list of Thurman's woes.

The MacRumors Buying Guide is a useful way to find out where Apple's product lines are in their typical upgrade cycles. Although by MacRumors' own admission, their buying recommendations should be taken with a grain of salt (as Apple's timing is never entirely predictable), it's a convenient way to see if the product…
