To be fair, your grandparents come from a time when food sanitation was a bit more lax.

At least post the wobble girl video

So we've gotten prequalification out the way and we're pretty sure which lender we're going to go with. The wife and I have been using a few websites and we're a bit confused. Properties we'd like to look at that we found on zillow and trulia are NOT on realtor.com. Homes we found on a...

I added the Good Eats episode in my response above. I haven't experienced cooked spinach that I deem acceptable, texture-wise. Now that I think of it, I don't much like raw spinach either because it reminds of chewing a sponge. However, I think cooked leafy greens are great additions to...

I don't know if it's NO value uncooked, but he is right that cooking leafy green vegetables will improve the nutritional value. Basically, our bodies have a tough time breaking down plant cell walls, which is where the nutrients are. Heat will damage the cell walls, thus releasing their bounty...

I guess one other question: should I be worried about someone getting a hold of the database file(dropbox has been breached before) and decrypting it eventually? Yes, I could use the key file, but that seems like too much of an inconvenience.

Ok, keepass it is. Does it encrypt the database itself, or should I get a different program to encrypt? Haven't even poked around in the program yet, so might be a dumb question. Now, to only convince my wife to use it too.

Placement of buttons I'm not so concerned about, but I have done what you've mentioned a couple times. Especially when changing songs through my pocket. My only physical requirement for placement is that the headphone jack be on the bottom.

I always get a "try too hard" feeling from Sony's physical design. That round button, I'm assuming is power, is an eyesore.

Anyone have recommendations for secure storage of accounts and passwords? I've looked into LastPass, which seems just to work with your web browser. And I've heard using KeePass with an encrypted database stored in Dropbox folder is a good way to keep the data local while maintaining...

Yes, it's in the dev options. Which you have to enable if you're on JB 4.2: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1989777

You: Might as well say that people getting sick from grain are praying to the wrong god. Just sayin! BTW, think we haven't fucked with animal breeds just as much?

Yeah, I'm going to be that guy... Why not make extra large portions for dinner and then microwave the leftovers another day?

No, it doesn't have any evidence supporting it. At least not any that you've shown us. As I, and Ancient, have repeatedly tried to point out, there are far too many variables, availability of grain being one, between HG and agricultural societies for anyone to point to a specific cause. Your...

I don't know how you manage to type so much while saying so little. Or just repeating what you said earlier. Are you going to address any of the points brought up after that quote? BTW, nothing proven scientifically is THE reason to bash something. Paragraphs, please!

I mostly answered your post in my edit. My apologies for not being clear on my original statement. I didn't mean to infer that anyone past 45 will live for a while. "Elite survivors" was supposed to mean that they got past all the rigors earlier in a HG lifestyle, so it makes sense that the...

I actually really don't give a shit about that. I was more referring to infant mortality rate and what can be inferred from there. But, we can pursue this. The graph does say modal, but the summary article says mean: The data doesn't look highly skewed besides Sweden's woman-on-icy-pavement...

Yeah, that graph pretty much sums up what I'm saying. Look at the earlier parts of the graph and infer from there.

Is that directed towards me? Because I didn't say that, I'm just agreeing with it. The data says HGs that live past 45 have a ~26 year life expectancy after that. Makes sense to me. There's a few more connect the dots for that to actually make sense. But I'm hoping Master actually engages...

I read your link, the blog post, and skimmed the graphs on the actual study. I see no mention of agricultural societies and their data. What I'm trying to get at is that I'm curious what percentage of hunter-gatherers lived to each of those age breakpoints, and what percentage of...

Or you could be misinterpreting data, which I think you are. Got any data on life expectancy AFTER grains were introduced, including periods before modern medicine?

You let your dogs play in near freezing water? http://www.weather.com/weather/right...en+NJ+USNJ0073

No idea why you would add rice to that.

No idea who you're arguing with here. No one is saying you should eat fat free diets. You're citing cases of carb abuse as proof that any carbs are bad. Abuse is bad. It's that simple. Maybe you'll get it this time. Probably not. And yes, 25% of your diet as carbs sounds perfectly...

Of course the hardasses live longer. There are SOOOO many differences between hunter-gatherer and agricultural societies(especially modern ones) that it's outright silly to even suggest eating grain was the culprit. How about agricultural society allowed the better storage of food through...

What do you think TBA means?

You were probably conditioning your body to expect the food at certain times. I know I get hungry around lunch and dinner times, regardless of what I ate the meal before. Doesn't make me tired though. Maybe you need more sleep.

You seem a bit over obsessed with insulin spikes. Is that really all you have against carbohydrates? If I can handle the spikes, and I've honestly never noticed a difference in how I feel based on what I eat(beside being full), why are insulin spikes bad? Yes, doing it far too often and too...

We haven't been in outer space for hundreds of thousands of years until the last ~5 decades! Should we stop doing that? It's really myopic to use arguments like that. Insulin spikes maybe your only shred of scientific evidence. Inflammation of the gut I'm betting is related to lactose...

Is Zillow at least a good way to find homes for sale, regardless of value? I really like their map feature for searching homes based on proximity.

Thanks for the heads up on the $5 sale. Is this website manual only? Submitted my order about an hour ago and no keys.

I'm going to be looking for a house soon too. Similar to McCheese, this will be my first. Hoping I could have a few questions answered because the process seems daunting. Where I live(Ithaca, NY), from poking around on Zillow, it looks like the type of house I would possibly want range from...

I don't see how that is a deus ex. Unexpected intervention, sure, which is even explained a book later. But what part of the plot did it move forward that wouldn't have otherwise?

tecknoe?

Fair enough. I didn't really pay attention to the results post frankish migration. Was just being a nitpicking history nerd.

That's France the geographical region, not France the country. Or in other words, France/Gaul. France as a country didn't really exist until the Franks moved in.

Why didn't you save Wirt or Griswold?

DEM? And you said you just finished Memory of Ice, that should explain where and why the Trygalle Trade Guild showed up. Memory of Ice and Deadhouse Gates take place at the same time.

Uh, what did you want then? And what were you expecting from here?
