    Weight Loss Thread

    It's not genetics, it's lifestyle. The areas of the US with lower rates of obesity tend to be urban, where people don't necessarily spend two hours a day commuting in a car. A lot of the obesity epidemic can be explained by the built form and commuting patterns of cities. The most overweight...

    Holy shit was Dubnyk ever awful tonight. The Oilers dominated the Jets and still lost because of 3 terrible goals against. I have been a supporter of his, but jesus christ, he has to get those shit goals out of his game in a hurry.

    Meh, that's splitting hairs. Over the entire term of their contracts they're making virtually the same average salary as Kessel, but are much better players. I guess we'll see where the market starts coming in for equivalent stars, but I certainly feel a lot better about the Oilers locking up...

    Yeah, you're right about Crosby's cap hit. But let's compare instead to Malkin, Perry, Staal, Getzlaf, or Nash. None of those circumvent the cap, and all of them are far superior players. I think you're crazy if you think that Kessel would have gotten more than that in the open market. edit...

    Grand Theft Auto V

    So, I'm no network analyst whiz kid, but isn't Grand Theft Auto Online going to be basically be unprecedented in terms of the number of concurrent players? Is there another game that is even close (that's not just a matchmaking service like Starcraft or whatever)? I just don't think that there's...

    That's true for mid-level riders. I find though that the high level and semi-pro guys at Whistler just wear a helmet and gloves, very little body armor. Not sure about the logic behind it. As far as being "humbled" and relegated to green runs goes, the other thing I've found with downhilling...

    Meh, you at least have control over being picky. You don't and can't have a crystal ball to see if your first love at 21 is going to be the same person in 10 years. But you're also much better off financial by the time you're 30+ than you were in your early 20's. If you're not, you're doing...

    How many sneakers you got?

    Yeah, that's my issue here. Sneakers casts a pretty wide net. I have a pair or two for running, but I consider those running shoes. I suppose a few other pairs of my casuals shoes might be defined as sneakers, but I don't really consider them to be nor do they look like running or skate shoes...

    Well, I find with downhilling that stamina isn't really an issue. It's mostly core and grip/arm strength, not necessarily legs or cardio. But it certainly can't hurt to be in good shape. I've never taken a "skills" course for downhilling, and truth be told other than downhilling in the past 5...

    A decent looking guy in his 30's with a good job/career can have his pick of women in their mid to late 20's. Why pick one with the baggage that a kid generally entails? It's not that they're not "respectable", I don't judge the women as being bad people or anything. But there's obviously a past...

    For some reason I thought that Fleury was signed to a way longer contract than he is. They might actually be able to get rid of him if they found someone else to replace him with. I thought they were going to be stuck with him for another 4-5 years.

    That's why when you hit 30 or so, you start looking for a nice 25 year old who is just getting themselves established but mostly out of their crazy/party phase. That way you have at least a couple good years to get to know each other and be really sure that she's "the one" before you get her...

    Pretty sure that lithium ion batteries don't really have "memory", therefore you don't necessarily have to worry about draining it down fully before recharging. Draining them totally dead I believe is actually bad for them.

    That shit just happened to me over the weekend. But it wasn't a jackass friend, it was a shitty strap clip on the ancient golf cart I was on. Jimmies were extremely rustled. Most people can't, a 3 iron is a really tough club to hit. Hence most sets now not coming with 3's and sometimes even 4's...

    That's the scary part about downhill biking when you're doing your first run down a line, though. They're designed to be done at a certain speed, and if you hesitate at the wrong place right before a big jump/drop, you can really fucking hurt yourself. Dude going first should have known where...

    Beginner/casual golf clubs?

    Yup, my swing from a good to bad round putting wise is 10-15 strokes. The secret to putting, by the way, has little to do with the line you pick or the slope of the green. It's all about weight. Even professional golfers are something like less than 50/50 on putts much past 10 feet. But you'll...

    I dunno, irons wise he might be better off with a "beginner" set of more forgiving clubs. I don't profess to be any sort of an expert, I'm a solid 20 handicap, but he definitely shouldn't be running out and grabbing a set of R9 TP irons unless he really wants his hands to hurt every time he...

    That's because you're teeing up with the driver, so you don't have to worry about the height that your club comes through the ball at nearly as much as you do with any other club. The driver also has an massive sweet spot compared to the other clubs. Really, in all honesty, modern drivers are...

    Your golf clubs will determine approximately 1% of how you golf, especially as a beginner. Maybe less. Just buy a used set as others have said. Make/brand/model isn't something to worry about, unless they're knock offs or something.
