One time I weighed myself at 7am and I was literally 5 lbs lighter than the personal measurement I have ingrained in my head. I was on the verge of wasting away. I paid careful attention and put together personal regulations: I must eat br

I guess I'm confused by the fact that you are repeating step 2 which reassigns Y... Clear on N thanks. An example would make this easier...

I'm sorry, but this is totally unclear (to me at least). For example what are you computing (in part 3) if you know what X and Y are? What is N? What is "the number of decimal places you want"? Can you explain in another way? Do you have a

You have some good arguments. I couldn't find a transcription of the speech they are referencing. But to be totally clear, referring to him as a 20-year-old law student is a bit misleading. In 1890 he joined the executive team at the Veget

I just don't equate that as accessory. What about the valet that parked his car? What if the man had stolen his coat?

Anyone read the wired article on this?... http://blog.wired.com/27bstroke6/2009/04/pirateverdict.html Apparently, the prosecution cited a case from 1963 wherein a man was convicted of a crime for holding his friend's coat while the friend

He used to proudly say that he only invests in businesses he understands. He seemingly lost his mind with his investment in Concoco Phillips. I hope electric cars do well too, but this is another lapse in judgment.
