Given that they measure "success" by response rate I'm not sure I put a whole lot of faith in the below quoted analyses. Perhaps the low "success" rate is because people reply w/ an outside service that OkCupid can't track? "#4 – Don’t try

FYI - Cal Football has a home game that day. Parking is going to be difficult to come by and expensive. Public transportation will also be pretty full so plan accordingly. http://www.calbears.com/sports/m-footbl/sched/cal-m-footbl-s...

IMO the sex offenders list is crap as it lumps a large range of offenses together. Caught urinating in public? Had consensual sex at age 17 with your high school sweetheart^? If you got caught doing either one you end up on the same list

I have no idea how it'll help and suspect the author is confused about what a fraud alert actually does. A fraud alert is simply a notice put on your credit files that creditors (before loaning you money, giving you a credit card, etc) will

My insurer (Anthem Blue Cross) will give me prices if I give them a procedure code and a billing zip code. Getting the procedure code and a billing zip code is another story though. When I call hospitals and doctor offices they often have

Sorry trapper but your entire post here wreaks of someone trying to "bully" the reader. You throw out a lot of esoteric terms w/ little to back it up. That said - are we even arguing about the same thing? You responded to my post that add

Sorry but the body doesn't burn just-eaten food that quickly. If you eat at 2pm instead of 11pm you're still going to be burning those calories when you go to bed at night. Ask any serious runner and they'll tell you that they do their ca

Yes, it is a myth. Calories in versus calories out. It's as simple as that. There may be some small differences in how efficiently your body digests food at night than during the day but 2pm vs. 11pm is an incredibly minor optimization.

Yup. I do the same though I only end up annoying myself, much like the above select-and-deselect-text posters when they're on nytimes.com, when I'm on the scratch buffer and I keep getting the "File to save in:" prompt.

You could say that about a lot of things that people spend a lot of time on. "Hard to cook when you're coding." "Hard to cook when you're playing soccer." "Hard to cook when you're decorating the school gym for the homecoming dance." I'd a

Who moderated you up here? You give away the ending of a movie and then figuratevely give me the finger with a too-bad-for-you response and you get applauded for it. Sheesh. Would it kill you and jacquesm to put a courtesy "spoiler alert"

Dude! Why do you have to post spoilers like that? Yeah it's far from a new release but still! I haven't seen it yet and it's on my Hulu queue. Thanks! Argh!

Excellent point. In many ways I think the networks get a bit too much credit for Hulu. I thought a bit about it think and I think the accolades are largely because people didn't expect much after the fiascos of the RIAA and the MPAA. How

Excellent point but I think it may still be useful to see a list of profitable sites that don't charge. Perhaps some common patterns can be found and we'd all learn from it. That said: I mostly agree with you and I think we'll take a look

I use namecheap as well and have one complaint. They don't allow you to specify the order of your nameservers! Regardless of the order you input your name servers the primary, secondary, tertiary nameservers will be assigned randomly with
