Being fat is hard; being fit is hard too. You get your abs in the kitchen, not on a treadmill. Also, exercising so one can get away with indulging a higher caloric count sounds dangerous and reads like "exercise bulimia." Sweating

I think the error in the report is that enemies would go for city centers rather than military bases and centralized power grids. Destroying millions of people and valuable assets is not going to make an attacking country wealthy or win any

San Francisco has been a boom/bust town since the gold rush. San Francisco's economic focal point, which has lasted there for a century or so, is tourism. Have you heard about that sinking luxury condo skyscraper in S.F.? The terr

Nonetheless, $200-billion has been added to the money supply. (See FRED M2 Index link below from September 19 to the present) $200-billion could have been implemented for more worthy projects than the repo market. In my opinion, the FED nee

The question that should be asked is what technology companies bought that information and was that info sold to human resources departments?

Fire needs a flammable source, heat, and oxygen. I suspect the enclosed cannister space hampered the O2 and the mud hampered the combustible material. Mud does seem plausible.

That is a good question, I found a video where someone is using a Swift trainer and at the 2:52 mark they are out of the seat: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-3-6KDu1fY

Perhaps a better investment would be to buy a road bike for $2,000. Spend $245 on a trainer and gear. Finally, get the subscription to the classes, and now you have both Peleton classes and a road bike.

What would be the "ne plus ultra" of irony is that a hyper-advanced civilization had a policy of leaving us alone because they greatly feared us due to the fact we were thousands of times taller than they are.

The trademark "Grindr" does not exactly resonate that goal. Sexual Lexis defines "Grinder" as #4. A man in the act of copulation. http://www.sex-lexis.com/Sex-Dictionary/grinder

For the Hong Kong protesters to be successful perhaps they have to "export" their values and demands to be applicable for the rest of China rather than their microcosm. I suspect Guangzhou, Shenzen, Dongguan may have no sympathy f

I could only see this working in a safe harbor or a port. The ocean is not a serene place for a floating platform unless the platform is elevated above potential water lines such as a wind turbine or offshore oil rig.

Paraphrasing Jean-Paul Sartre here: We are condemned to have a free will. Everything we do, we own and are entirely responsible for the cause and the effect. But more importantly, what we do shows other people how they should act. Ipso fact

Thank you for the photo; this is the best one I have seen. I suspect the ropes could not secure each of those rudders in place for a transatlantic crossing even in moderate seas.

It's hard to believe that a stern mounted oar-rudder would be a viable steering mechanism to make a 5,700 nautical mile trip from Rome to Rio de Janeiro especially since the "New World" is 1,000 miles closer. Europe had to wa

I did not appreciate modern architecture until I bought a home. I get it now. A dream home is a house you can clean with a squeegee; especially the kitchen and the bathroom.

Of the three I would say Facebook is the most destructive. I don't see articles on Live Science or Science Daily decrying the mental health effects of Amazon or Google, just unfair monopoly implications at Bloomberg and other business
