Afifi’s encounter with the FBI ended with the agents telling him not to worry. “We have all the information we needed,” they told him. “You don’t need to call your lawyer. Don’t worry, you’re boring. “ They shook his hand and left. Yep, d

If it were a full book I would pay for it. If there were a donate button on the site, I would donate. The site was great but the sample was amazing, especially the chapter on agile.

I realize this is a bit off topic but how do you feel about disclosure right there in the blog post? Something like "if you follow that link, I'll get some money"? I wrestle with this every time I link to something in a blog post. I've most

Summary: the author of the article speculates that moderate alcohol consumption leads people to socialize and not be lonely. People who are lonely are more likely to die from "just about everything." There's no actual study done here -- the

And how can you argue with those endorsements! I've been balancing on toilet seats for twenty years. I've broken a few, and dislodged my share of toilets from their anchors to considerable expense. The stability, comfort and ease of Nature

I really like that find and/or begin pattern. The if user= User.find never really felt right to me either.

I know I probably shouldn't be surprised by this anymore but there's not a single link to MOG itself in the article, just a link to both MOG and Pandora tags on Engadget. It's quite annoying that this is so common now.

Yes, used to work somewhere. She got laid off but I can see why that would seem funny from a random post on the internet. The point I was trying to make is: you really don't ever truly know what's in your car and that's reason enough fo
