planefinder.net is similar. I live in south-eastern Canada and I can confirm it's very accurate, big jets to and from Europe constantly rumble overhead.

A farmer from my region had a red notice issued by INTERPOL, it sounds impressive. What did he supposedly do? He is a potato farmer and was accused of selling low quality potatoes to Algeria. He spent more than a year in a jail in Lebanon

Here in Canada the channel called Showcase airs their popular new sci-fi time travel cop show called Continuum soon after it airs. It takes a while though because Canada is so big, six time zones, only after it airs on the west coast plus

All any fad diet boils down to is "how can I eat like a pig, not exercise and stay thin?" and sell books about the diet.

FYI over at Reddit http://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/ysty8/windows_8_sh... It seems shutting down just "mini hibernates" it does not shutdown Windows 8, you need to choose restart when installing updates.

I'd say different is anti-Apple when you're Microsoft and Apple is your primary competitor your goal is to gain customers, being the same doesn't make sense since it already exists. A great quote I heard once (not sure who) to paraphrase:

I'm in Canada so I may be OK I freeze my balls off each time I have to shovel the driveway before work :P But seriously yeah maybe, or get a girlfriend/wife asap.

I can see the anti-Apple mentality of this. Apple icons are glossy this is flat. The icons on an iPad/iPod are small glossy "chicklets" but on Win8 they are flat and large tiles; no black space. I like the look and the design it's a nice c

Too late for me at 43 but it was the first thing I thought about too. But I wonder can freezing sperm long-term cause degradation just as bad as it is for a man over 40 years-old?

Or something like the Ardrone2. Adding to what was said above the craft looks like a powered parachute type not a wing and rudder type ultralight aircraft.

It makes sense now that ticket-in ticket-out is common, tokens are ancient, and most of the industry is moving towards server-based gaming. No longer is a terminal where all the logic is they are just dumb terminals that display the outcom

I have to admit I thought the same thing. As to why anyone would think of this as others have asked in other comments below? You don't see many pro-meat groups (are there any?) fire bombing vegetable stands but PETA, ALF and other extremis

There are DNA samples from 5,300 years ago Otzi the Iceman from the Italian/Swiss border, the bogman is half his age. It would be fun to compare the two. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%96tzi_the_Iceman

Maybe the container which holds the gas has to be small so helium would require a smaller storage container which is able to fill the volume of the device.

No, it isn't. Read the posts for a while and you'll see a pattern of certain groups who have an absolute view of what they perceive is right and aren't shy to say it. Maybe the mods are better now but I gave up reading anything there after

"Carbs" is such a vague word there are complex carbohydrates and simple carbohydrates, a blanket statement calling both "carbs" is generalizing.

Reddit's /r/fitness is like the 4chan of fitness I stopped reading it due to the bickering and posturing, I'd say a wee bit of roid-rage is leaking through.
