Maybe if they were planning that pavement replacement anyway ... they could adjust so that it would fall on the certain date - the date of Wendy's opening.

It's not only "two app stores", it's actually applied to everything - literature, art, movies etc, etc. There's always a "mainstream" which has more mass-market appeal, and then there is something more deep and complex, but it only is of in

No matter what how much damage we do to this planet, we are still the only species who have a chance of making it off the planet before it smashes into the sun. What about animals used in farming, plants used in agriculture, pets, useful

Do you use Intuit software? Have you tried Mint? Everyone I've talked to that has a Mint account and has been forced to use Intuit software in the past is uniformly dismayed and confused by this acquisition. Looks like a business opportun

Let's assume the author is serious for a second; the company he/she is describing is just asking to get fed to the lions by a company that does not embrace mediocrity-as-policy mantra, and shows they actually give a damn about their produc

A "Predictably Irrational" book review. Something both interesting and useful at last. (No "coding" or "horror" involved though, and no cute dog photos).

"Living abroad challenges you in ways that are very hard to find at home." True. On the other hand, who can honestly say that he has exhausted all possible ways to challenge oneself at home?

What about those who were not smoking, had no elevated blood pressure or elevated cholesterol AND ALSO were fit? I would expect them to be better off compared to both groups mentioned. It's not like one has to choose between smoking and obe

"Green" bags have become quite popular in Australia. I think they look pretty horrible [1] though, but even girls carry them around while shopping. And you do not need to keep it in your pocket, just hang it on your shoulder. [1] http://up

The dog does not bring home money, but so do not, for example, overseas vacations or even going to the movies. Would it be irresponsible to spend money on movies or tourism because this money produces no income for the spender? The dog does

"I'd like to hire a Swedish PhD to sit down and do this test, he would get 1 or 2 out of 9" Wouldn't that be the expected result? A PhD is probably not the best suited person for a career in military.
