Many women have regular cycles but not every woman does. For those women, it can be a surprise as to when and how long they are going to get their period. That said, this service wouldn't be for those who are surprised by their period, on t

You know that not everybody observes or cares to celebrate Christmas right? When I worked at a movie theater I loved working Christmas because it was easy money and I didn't care about the holiday, I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels th

This article is just useless fluff. First, how many people care enough to get 100%? Do you get anything for getting 100%? If not, then the number of people who will probably strive for that and are willing to pay for everything is probably

It was an interesting read and I saw a lot of myself in there. Instead of books on science I was reading books on philosophy. My favorites were Neitzsche, Sarte and Kirkegaard. One thing that definitely struck me about this though was how m

Same. I was super excited but then when I saw that no email or anything was sent I felt like a complete fool. I'd still be super excited if this was even halfway legit.

First off, in some areas it is a regulated market which would prevent them from being able to do so (electricity at least). Second, it would be very expensive for very little gain. It wouldn't scale well and they would have a ton of new inf

My frame of mind is that going to college should be for the knowledge, not for a job. If you want to go to school for a job, there are plenty of trade schools you can go to. If college was just for jobs, the majority of majors would be cut.

While I agree that we need to be more sympathetic to those with depression, but I think it needs to extend way past just depression and on to all mental illness. Mental illnesses cause distorted thought patterns and it isn't the fault of th

No, the best way to tell how angry a developer is would be to ask them. To think that one could get any insight into emotional feelings from code is preposterous (with the exception of emotionally charged variable names or ASCII art).

Being a taxi driver has some advantages (especially if you are an O/O), with the big one being you get to set your own schedule. On top of that, it can generate quite a decent amount of money. I had a friend in college who drove a cab in Ch
