Where did they get an arbitrary 154 calories for a pint of beer? Calorie count is closely tied to style and alcohol content. A few examples: Bud Light: 109 calories in 120z. Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA: 294 calories in 12oz. Weyerbacher Me

Somewhat boring to watch (expected to take 12 hours total), but definitely a feat of engineering.

It'd be cheaper for Netflix to poach AMC's top talent and invest in new original shows without buying an entire network.

Exactly. My brother cut short his PhD and got a M.S. when he realized the life of a professor was basically being a manager with employees that were harder to fire. If he wanted to be a manager, he'd have gotten an MBA.

I'd definitely pay more for a bus ticket if it was more spacious and had 2-3 bathrooms.

On the Media did a great story on this [1]. If you've got 13 minutes to spare, they discuss the copyright issue and the actual construction and delivery of the speech itself. [1] http://www.onthemedia.org/2012/jan&

I used to be in the same boat when I was self employed. My solution was to rely heavily on email (when possible). In cases where a phone call was necessary, I would mentally plot out the first 30 or so seconds. I found that 30 second pre

That was my exact thought when I read this headline. My Yahoo usage from January-->Mid July is no existent. Mid-July--> December is 4-5 times per day.

Did you have any access to Musk and/or family/friends or is it mainly compiled from already available sources? Either way, it looks like a good read.

I agree completely. I can cook my own food, but I don't do it all the time. Also, just because you own a car, doesn't mean you have space to change your oil or the storage area for the (few) tools required and the 5 quarts of use

If you quit to work on your own stuff (and have a nest egg to fall back on), have at it. If you plan on working for someone else, that employment gap would be a red flag.

That line caught me off guard. In New Jersey they do charge sales tax. All contractors (plumbers, remodelers, electricians)are required to charge and file sales tax on services that are done as maintenance. There is something called &quot

To some extent, yes. You need to know where you spend your time (not down to the minute) in order to free up time. Knowing calorie consumption helps if you want to lose weight.

Not sure if that last part will work. I can definitely see Comcast allowing speed test to work to it's fullest and then buffering youtube and other sites where performance matters.

Most (probably all) of the Federal government requires password changes every month or so (not completely sure of the timeline) and you can't use previous passwords. This leads to shitty passwords just so people can remember something

Does the vibrate wake up feature work well? Do you feel you are able to wake easier? That is pretty much the only feature I care about.

I can't figure out why anyone would want to go this route. Phone cost will be on top of the normal plan price and AT&T gets your old phone when you upgrade (so you can't sell it to make back some of the cost). I assume AT&am
