It then seems that if an animal is dead, and you are simply picking up small traces from a grill, vegans ought not to have an issue.

The fact that you disagree with "traditional" gender stereotypes does not mean they have not held true for large parts of history. The reasons for this are debatable, as are its merits, but it is still a part of history.

Many activities popular among men involve danger or risk. I would postulate that after the death of utilitarian and military horse-riding, the connotations of it changed. It became more of a leisure activity, and was largely supplanted by

I think it has more to do with the ethos of Apache vs., say, Gnu. Namely, Apache tends to be much more permissive and not really view commercial, proprietary software as a "bad thing" like Gnu tends to.

It's not a bad question. Does it have to be cardio? Isometric exercise? I've heard a lot of buzz about high-impact interval training; does that work? The questions do need answering, and though mice may not provide the full an

As you said, not all studies can be done on humans, and some that could would be cost-prohibitive. My hope is that the ability to "print" organs will give us some increased ability, though we would not be able to see impacts on t

Carrying around a straw will cause you to end up with a sticky mess if you drink anything but water. I guess the option is to carry it to a bathroom and wash it after every use? No thank you.

I have used paper once or twice (albeit not in Florida, just some random place), and it didn't take long to get soggy. Drove me nuts. I feel like businesses will love this; forces people to drink quickly.

I'm not sure I like this trend. Who really wants to carry around an empty coffee cup wherever he goes? Or a metal straw? Or re-useable bags? Utensils will be next. There is a reason we have so much disposable stuff: unparalleled c

I fail to understand the root of the controversy here. I do realize that sixty-six million dollars is massive pay, but it is insignificant on a broader scale. Are some overcompensated? Of course. But a great CEO deserves great pay for h

Lard is still good to cook with. Cook bacon and store the grease in jars in the fridge, and it can last for ages. Wonderful for scrambling eggs, and pies crusts made with anything but lard just don't compare.

I think this has great potential for content creators and their use of royalty-free music. It might just help a lot of the big copyright issues, and distinguish each person's work with a distinct score.
