FRACT | An Indie Adventure Game by Phosfiend Systems Free Classic AudioBooks. Digital narration for the 21st Century Men's Journal Magazine - Men's Style, Travel, Fitness and Gear I hate the gym. At least, I hate "the gym" as imagined by the modern American health club: the mindless repetitions on the weight machines, halfhearted crunches, daytime TV during the treadmill. Such a sad, unimaginative excuse for a life, when I could be out rock-climbing, surfing, or, hell, even just scrubbing the bathroom floor. First, I realized that we all live in a kind of Fitness Fog, a miasma of lies and misinformation that we mistake for common sense, and that makes most of our gym time a complete waste. Muscle withers away if you're not constantly building it, and muscle withers faster as a man ages. Not that I haven't wasted time at the gym like everybody else, sweating dutifully three times a week, "working my core," throwing in the odd after-work jog. We're not innocent. My own epiphany actually hit me in a roundabout way, over the course of a couple of years – humiliation at the hands of a special-ops trainer, being told I was unfit to bench-press by the 1999 Mr.

Normal Stuff - I, Cringely » Blog Archive » Which domain registrar is best? Which domain registrar is best? I have domains from Network Solutions, GoDaddy, and Register.com, but there are many other registrars — some of which must be better than these.

I am thinking of consolidating all my domains with one registrar. Where should I go and why? Interactive 3D model of Solar System Planets and Night Sky
The Loom The Science Tattoo Emporium continues to thrive, long after I first wondered aloud in August 2007 whether scientists had any cool tattoos of their research hidden under their lab coats. I continue to get photos at a regular rate, and as I post new ones, they continue to get noticed anew by places like Digg and Boing Boing. Initially, I was so stunned by the influx of photos that I posted just about anything that came my way. But as the emporium has grown, I’ve become choosier about which ones I post. So if you are considering sending in your own scientific ink, please read these guidelines: 1. 2. 3. 4.
Intellectual Capital Part Three This is a Part Three of a collection of the columns I wrote for Intellectual Capital during the all too brief years that publication existed. Published by Pete DuPont (former Governor of Delaware), it was a splendid collection of ideas and thoughts. It was also a victim of the dot bust. These are presented more or less in the order they were written. Part One Part Two Part Three January 1999 -- AL Gore and Science Policy January 1999 Jerry Pournelle Sunday afternoon (January 24) At the 1999 annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science Vice President Gore predictably came bearing gifts. Gore has always had a particular devotion to the Internet. This is a really poor idea. I don't say this from dogmatic opposition to government funding of basic science; indeed, there's really no alternative, because there's no one else to look out for the future. Private industry isn't going to help with long term plans. Government science funding has a spotted track record.
