As someone who is pretty active in the health/fitness community I HATE n=1 studies like this that get so much press. All this does is give people yet another excuse not to eat a healthy diet and it gets quite annoying. Of course if you star

I'm sorry but in the Health and fitness community this has been disproven time and time again. Someone can fix their sleep and eat at their bmr with good foods and still lose heaps of weight. See good calories bad calories by Gary taubes

In AU, my first year in my mechanical engineering degree was a complete waste of time. They call it a "common first year" where you do little bits of every type of engineering. It was a complete waste of time and money. In theory it sounds

Vienna was a total 'woah' city for me. The history, the culture the beauty of that city is amazing. I remember feeling like my head was swimming the few days I was there. For me it was easily the most beautifully amazing city in Europe. I a

I have used nearly every todo system on the planet, but the best and easiest for me is the good old todo.txt 1) Place todo.txt into your dropbox folder. 2) Create a shortcut on your taskbar to the file. 3) Set the file to open on startup.

The way I understood it was that the average life expectancy was low, due to the high rate of infant mortality. But the mode of the age data is up in the 60's-70's. I.e those who didn't die from infection, or being eaten alive actually live

we do accelerate this cellular replication however with the diets we are currently consuming. As we put our bodies into hyperinsulinism through eating the plethora of carbohydrates we do, we are essentially accelerating the amount of cell r

Full disclosure. I am one of those "crazy people" who think grains and complex carbohydrates are killing us, and that a high fat diet, moderate protein, low carbohydrate is ideal. I really believe cancer IS a modern world disease, however m

Just because they are obviously calling it "Lion" doesn't mean it wont be just another iterative update (Although it might not). Look at iTunes 10. They had the chance to do something huge with revision number 10 (like make it work on Windo

Mining equipment is very fun and generally huge. What I am sure most people don't realise is the amount of safety is built into any design constructed (especially here in Australia). There are safety factors upon safety factors upon safety

Also not to take anything away from NASA (they are the reason I became an engineer) but they only assisted in the design by suggesting improvements etc. We sketched out the original capsule shape right here.

What they use these machines for normally is to drill shafts for ventilation or egress in mines. Generally there are two ways to drill shafts, top down (blind sinking etc.) or bottom up (raiseboring). Top down shafts used to be predominate

I helped design the drill (raisebore) used to get to the miners. It was by pure chance the rig was in the country at the time this happened. Today is one of those "I did something that matters" moments for me.

I don't agree with the author here. I think the social media websites do little or are actually detrimental in a way to causes such as the ones shes outlined. Sure they allow people to quickly 'donate' or shoot out a tweet, or change there

I honestly would have paid $5-$10/month for Instapaper. It is by far the most used app I have on my iPhone. I wish Marco the best of luck, and can't wait to see what new features he comes up with.
