I've seen some of the poor sods keep on writing comments (that people who did not switch on "show dead" cannot see) for over a year. I switched on "show dead" and immediately came across a guy who seems to be hellbanned 463 days ago and s

This is what I've been thinking since I've first read that willpower is depletable: "Isn't it just a self-fulfilling prophecy? Don't I feel out of willpower just because I'm convinced that it should be depleted by now because of all things

There are huge numbers of claims, but who among the multitudes has the evidence? If any Buddhist monks or temple has Buddha's teachings, they should also have the ways of life from the problems to the resolutions. But they don't have them

I have read this article just yesterday: http://healthcorrelator.blogspot.com.au/2012/06/lowest-morta... This is basically a reference point to support the opinion that was stated here: BMI is not the only thing that matters. Take a look

Maybe she could draw lunches ... then take photos of drawings and post them. There would be a short caption under each photo, saying that the actual photos are not available due to the council policy. Win-win: keep on doing what you love

That really isn't that much weight- imagine bench pressing 60 kilos. A more general rule is Bench Press = 3 x 1 dumbbell weight. Pressing dumbbells is harder because it involves more balancing, so it is harder to press 30kg dumbbells than

I started blogging about 375,000 words ago (about three full-length novels… crikey). I think it's time. You definitely should get a book out - there's plenty of material. I would preorder.

During the Nazi regime in Germany, lots of people were sentenced to death under a jurisdiction that today is considered inhumane and criminal (and was by other nations at the time, too). Same applies to many of those who have been prosecu

From the comments, made my entire week: They were obviously homeopathic bombs. Security found no traces of explosives, which had been diluted to the point that it wasn't present - thus making the devices even more effective.

Just a few days ago I read a book called "Convict Conditioning". In essence, it's about bodyweight exersices. You won't need a gym, but you'll need a place to hang from. Copying a part of a book review: Convict Conditioning is a book of bo

I really, really don't get this. I'm all for making my life more simple and more relaxed. But I just can not agree from the very beginning, so the rest gets lost on me. Most good things happen without a plan: friendships, falling in love

Driving out of a deep squat is always the hardest part for me. I find it just requires so much more willpower than a press or the like. It probably also requires recruiting more muscles at the same time and coordinating them all, and more

According to the theory of decision fatigue, the simple act of making any decision depletes us of a limited store of willpower. I'm a bit worried about this theory becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy. Ever since first reading about it, my

I'm trying to kick as little as I possibly can, as in 2-beat kick. But I don't have years of practise, so if I try to swim without kicking at all, I'd just start sinking very, very soon. :)

Or you have the 'official' salary of $50/month, and you get the rest paid to you in cash in the envelope each month. Well, at least that's how things were about 10 years ago when I left - it could have changed a lot. There was some economis

Sort of "meta", but interesting: http://andorjakab.blog.hu/2012/01/03/hungary_not_funny_anymo... That blogpost made me kind of like a celeb, a bloghero or something. Fact is, that single blogpost generated half a million pageviews, 91141
