  1. No there is no restoration in the sence you are talking about.
  2. Well think of it this way. Assuming your not some serious fat ass... If you let out all the air in your lungs you sink. If you breath in you float. That means that somewhere in between you body density is the same as water density. And since there is no standard on lung inflation for body voluem you can accurately use 1g = 1cm^2. (water density) Its just as accurate as the bathtube water method, as there is no standard on how inflated your lungs have to be for you "true" body volume. ta. Thus unless you have a specific definition for "body" volume the two methods are equivalent in accuracy.
  3. I can't stand these what if programs. What a waste of time.
  4. dogs and a like.
  5. Okay way back when I was a little kid I put a penny in some vinegar. Later some blue crystals formed. Is this copper acetate? probably copper(II) acetate hydrate? thanks that's about it.
  6. Hey I've been listening to your show every week for the past half year or more without pause (well except for that spell when your online servers were screewed). It rocks. Keep up the good work!! (I highly recommend it to everyone!)
  7. This has to be the stupidest thing I've been exposed to in the past 5 1/2 months.
  8. I don't know if I'd agree with that. Maybe for the broad range of materials engineers, however thermodynamics especially chemical thermodynamics can be extreemly important in nanotech. Anyways I'd say go with Nanotech, It's a new emerging field with far more varried directions to go in.
  9. I'd recomend ConvertXtoDVD. It'll do exactley what you need. Plus it maintains quality and aspect ratios very well. Half of the programs out there stretch or compress the screen. :?
  10. Apparently I like power because it increases my sexual options...
  11. It was common practice for many optometrists to prescripe slightly under perscription lenses for a long time. They held this incorrect belief that it would train your eyes a bit and prevent worsening or even fix vision. It was later realised that they were full of shit, and it just put more undo stress on the eye and could potentially worsen vision. Some still do this, you should try to get as accurate a prescription as possible.
  12. ...yeah sure Just make sure to get a nice long warrenty. And that it will be compatible with any specific software requirements you'll have.
  13. That's true. I never really thought of it before, but after I eat a meal just full of veggies I do feal a bit weak. Esspecially the next morning. But on the other hand I wouldn't call them junk food. Like It's alot easier to get too much sugar than too less. If you eat to much you get fat. If you eat to little you feel really weak and maybe a little depressed, which makes you want to eat more... But then again I don't really eat just veggies. I just add alot of extra veggies to a normal meal to make sure I'm not hungry after I'm done eating. Typically I have my source of meat, alittle bread/potatoes and a lot of veggies.
  14. Yeah pretty much. Mushrooms too, and those have lots of protein. You can basically eat all you want when it comes to veggies and still loose weight. All it takes is some minor skill in cooking to get them tasting really good. The main sources of calories for people are things like bread/rice/pasta/potatoes and fats. None of which are very nutritious. (Though you do need some fat). Basically if you cut back on those, and eat more veggies to fill you up you'll have a hard time not loosing weight. To put in in perspective 1 chocolate chip cookie or a slice of bread typically contains more callories than a full bowl of mixed vegetables! And if you consider that a large bowl of veggies is more filling than maybe 20 cookies you can understand why people have trouble loosing weight. They just make really stupid choices in what they eat.
  15. Geeze just eat more vegetables. They're so filling and so low callory that even if you ate them non-stop all day you'd probably still die of starvation!!! Like 100 grams of mixxed veggies is 30 calories a grown man would have to eat about 80 times that a day to maintain weight! Try eating 8 kilos of veggeis a day. Seriously if you just eat low calory filling foods you can eat all day and still loose weight. No need to take drugs to make youself eat less. Just change what you eat and you can eat all you want! Plus filling low calory foods tend to be packed full of nutrients.
  16. A bonus about the lemon juice too. It makes spinach taste 1000x times better. Has a way of smoothening out that overpowering earthy taste.
  17. Actually your probably shouldn't tell someone their wrong if you don't know the answer yourself. The genes are linked being placed in close proximity of each other on their chromosome. They're not the same gene, eventhough both code for a melanin modifying/producing protein. Melanins are actually fairly complex widley varying irregular molecules. They are produced from different combinations of different subunits in different amounts. Thus there is a wide array of genes that code for the proteins required to produce them. So not only do the genes matter but so does the level of expression etc. Like their might be a gene that leads to what we recognize as blue eyes, but as you'll notice there are many different types of blue, brown etc eyes. This gets even more complicated for skin colour. Many people seem to believe skin colour is due to the level of melanin, which they consider as a regular molecule. But the truth is far more complex. You can have different shades at different or the same intensity.
  18. Did you make that avatar all by yourself?
