Canada's Remembrance Day - Remembering my Grandfather: Charles Roy Tilley - RIP Grandpa - http://www.artillery.net/new...
Canada's Remembrance Day - Remembering my Grandfather: Charles Roy Tilley - RIP Grandpa
Canada's Remembrance Day - Remembering my Grandfather: Charles Roy Tilley - RIP Grandpa
"The 29th Battery remained with the 11th Army Field Regiment throughout the campaigns in Sicily, Italy and Northwest Europe, where they claim to have been the first Regiment of the 1st Canadian Corps from Italy to be in action on German soil." - T. Brent, technopeasant from Bookmarklet
After a sketchy period in the 1920s and 1930s, when he worked undercover among Canada's first narcotics agents, my maternal grandfather Charles Roy Tilley served with the Royal Canadian Artillery in WWII. He saw action in Italy and Germany. He survived, marrying a young British girl -- my Nana Doreen Gunn Tilley -- and returned to Canada. He died, though, while I was still an infant. - T. Brent, technopeasant
We have his War Records: there are months and months of records that have been blacked out. We know he was in Scotland during that time, and that this was shortly after the Army found out he'd worked undercover. To this day, the Canadian Government will tell us nothing of his actions during that time. - T. Brent, technopeasant
bump... for Grandpa. - T. Brent, technopeasant
another Salute for your Grandpa !!! - Peter Dawson
Thank you, Peter. :) - T. Brent, technopeasant

Flying squirrel? - Glen Campbell
I need that for the cats and dogs around here. - Anika
I am ashamed to admit how much I like this. - Ha3rvey (more more more)
i wish i could rig up something like this for the people who ignore the large "NO SOLICITING" sign on my front door. - Joe Silence is not dead
Ahhh, good times at the Squirrel amusement park. - ‘-.-’ Tutivillus Grift
That's awesome! - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)

Dame Edna has a similar emergency mechanism she can use if certain guests on the show have to be preemptively aborted, although I believe hers is a trap door in the stage. - Kittyburgers
I need one of those! Dang squirrels constantly mess everything up in my yard! - Jeff P. Henderson
Your lucky, I have raccoons, their messes are 3-4 times bigger. - Ed Millard
seems to be an SPCA problem here ..Entrapment ?? enticement ?? whatever ..the squirrel got butt kicked on this round ! - Peter Dawson
So awesome. Would love to see an armadillo take off like that. - Josh Haley
Woah! - Holly Rae, FFer
Are armadillos pests? Because part of the reason I don't feel bad about seeing this GIF is because squirrels are such awful pests here and there aren't enough predators to keep them in check. - Spidra Webster
I would launch ANYthing in that thing, pets, wildebeasts, you name it. - Josh Haley
*waits for Josh to launch his gummy-worm minifig in that thing* - Micah Wittman
Whew, when I finished PML watching the astroskwirl, I thought A) pity we don't have them in the wild here in Australia and B) cats do like skwirls, and I have two cats, maybe that's why no little furry rodents live near me... - Ted Russ
I like how it has to walk up two boxes to get to the goodies and it gladly obliges. - Will Higgins™
The best part about launching an armadillo would be seeing how far it rolls assuming it rolls up in to a ball in flight. It could replace pumpkin cannons and frog jumping as a sport. - Ed Millard
Sonic Heroes, Texas Edition! - Josh Haley
Hmm, should show this to my Mom and see if she can rig something up to her bird feeders so the squirrels don't try to get to the seed. :P - Mol, Time Warping

Well M. -- the Anti-Clique it does imply your soul purpose in life is to become a production cog in a great machine. That's worth protesting don't you think? - Todd Hoff
And what about, 'When you feel drowsy, a competitor may have drugged you.' - Micah Wittman
That's gotta be a joke, no? - Joel Webber
Why is it in English though? - ronin
Or "When you feel drowsy Freddy is waiting in the dark"? - ‘-.-’ Tutivillus Grift
The best part is that the Korean says "Sleepiness Prohibited". - Darren
I actually meant that I was picturing American parents protesting that this was pitting students against each other. But yes, in the fight-the-man feeling, it does seem like a noble cause to protest about - Maxamad
yes , just shows that Teachers don't take crap from kids in Asian Countries !!.. and I might as well add their Governments too !! - Peter Dawson
WOW, no pressure, right? Sobering message for young minds - Susan Beebe
Given the national scores and drop out rates, I think American kids could use some pressure, something to remind them that they are in fact, competing in the global market, whether they like it or not. - Ray Cromwell

Meh, it is what it is. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

Sending good juju towards SC! - Derrick
Thanks for the well wishes and good juju, all, but the interview was a bust. There was no mention of the job for which I'd actually submitted a resume (contract property photography for new insurance policies). Either they lied about the job, or I applied for the photographer job and coincidentally got a call minutes later saying they'd gotten my resume and would would like to setup an... more... - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

The real question isn't whether FriendFeed is dead or not. It's very much alive. The real question is why is Louis Gray using a dead product? More...
The product? Google Reader. It is dead. Be back in a second to explain why. - Robert Scoble
Here's why... - Robert Scoble
Speaking of Reader, Friendfeed doesn't seem to be getting shares on time. Tweets are late too :( Still using Reader but thru Feedly :) - RK
...The new lists feature is totally making Twitter FAR BETTER than Google Reader. The only thing Twitter doesn't have yet is full text. But I've gotten over that. So, why is Louis Gray still holding onto Google Reader, even though Google Reader is slower and lamer than Twitter is (combined with FriendFeed)? - Robert Scoble
Cause people use what works, not always what is new... - Johnny Worthington from iPhone
Off topic question on Twitter lists: Sometimes when I try to add someone to a list of mine using the dropdown, I click the checkbox, the little icon spins, but the click doesn't take and the person isn't added. This happens a lot but not always. Anyone else getting this? - Bob Morris (polizeros)
Reader and Twitter are very different tools. Virtually every blog and news site has RSS/Atom feeds. Most don't have their own Twitter feed. And 140 characters, with URL shorteners? Get real. - LogEx
You are comparing apple and oranges. Using twitter as an RSS reader is almost as bad as following everyone back - Edwin Khodabakchian
I still bookmark websites. Cause it works for me. But what do I know? - Derrick
I still use Google Reader all day long, love the state save between mobile and desktop. I use it for the "hard news" stream, sans crowd commentary and noisy/redundant mashup of "friends'" likes. Great for following a multitude of obscure blogs. - Allred
I see a pattern here: Tomorrow's provocative tweet is going to be: Ok, Google Reader is very much alive. The real question is when will Robert Scoble get back to blogging! - Edwin Khodabakchian
Edwin. Twitter is my RSS, has been for months. I have not gone to Google Reader in months. - Paramendra Bhagat
Dear Jesus, here we goez again! WHEEEeee, would this be it's 3rd Life or reincarnation if you're a practicing Buddhist? Or maybe see what's up, give em call... - sofarsoShawn
Scoble - Have you tried to use Email notifications or their Adobe Air desktop notifications? They are sorely lagging by 15 minutes or longer. No longer "real time" - joebrooks
Ok, that's just a bit too provocative -- I can't think of a single major service that Twitter can claim to replace, and Reader, one of the best apps on the web, certainly ain't one -- maybe if Reader had a "random crap" feature, that's where Twitter would encroach - Christopher Galtenberg
I agree. Google Reader *is* dead. It's certainly been very dead for me. I use it basically only to post articles to Twitter and FriendFeed. Lately I've been doing less GReader sharing and more favorites on Twitter. - Dennis Jernberg
Or rather, GReader's dead as a social network type thing. It remains very good at what it is: a Web-based RSS reader. But I do like the fact that you can share articles to Twitter, FF, Facebook, etc. - Dennis Jernberg
Hmm? Google Reader and RSS are fantastic. I am not impressed by Twitter favorites. Also not impressed by comment bait. :) Carry on. - Louis Gray
Twitter is only a meta-stream. You give up comprehensiveness for sheer popularity and randomness. - Christopher Galtenberg
I will stop using Google Reader when blogs and Web sites start publishing, replaced outright by Twitter. - Louis Gray
Poor Louis - he keeps getting picked on today :-( (sorry - I started it) - Jesse Stay
I want a better tool for the job - nothing does what Reader does for me right now. I wish Reader would focus on that aspect and not the comments or likes or such. Build a solid (not slow) platform for sharing and reading the news. Make the UI less confusing. Then maybe they could socialize it. Regardless I won't switch because there's nothing that gives me news and lets me share it like Google Reader does now. I just wish it was better. - Jesse Stay
Now Twitter is better than Google Reader? I guess I'm using all these technologies the wrong way because I use Google Reader waaaay differently than Twitter. I'm starting to wonder if someone brainwashed Scoble at the last Twitter event or something... it's getting a little bizarre. - Jan Ole Peek
Welp, I'm using it so it's not dead to me. - Shawn Farner
The recent spike in the 'dead' meme is just plain odd. Is it an expression of having too many things to do? The need to have some losers, and hence a desire to be on the side that does the killing? Would we prefer a Microsoft-like monopoly, or a limited Microsoft/Apple/Linux-like menu? Is attention too frazzled to tolerate and even enjoy a wide ecosystem of tools? - Christopher Galtenberg
Christopher, it's just a slow news week I think. As Scoble said, we're kind of in an in-between period right now and it's frustrating. - Jesse Stay
I still use Google Reader the same way that I've been using Google Reader for months - namely, to share items of interest to my Google Reader and FriendFeed followers (and now, my Facebook followers who see my FriendFeed entries). Perhaps it's worthwhile to note that I don't use Google Reader as a social network; I can't ever find the comments that are attached to Google Reader items. - John E. Bredehoft
Big shrug. Feeds are feeds. I don't love any of the interfaces. Growing fonder (sigh) of FB, though, as a hub for all of it. (No pink sheep though. Please.) - Kathy Fitch
I never really use the Google Reader interface. But integrating with feedly is great. - Nils Sandin
What are your guy's thoughts on bloglines.com? - Eric Vreeland
I consider that del.ici.ous should move towards twitter-like or friendfeed-like functionality. Or perhaps google's equivalent of del.ici.ous (could never figure out what that is actually called and how to get back to it each time) should blend in a jaiku layer. - Ian Tindale
+ to Louis G calling it...approximately, more accurately though: load deflection disguised as link bait, - sofarsoShawn
Consider how "retweeting" would have turned out if "twitter favorites" were listed in your own twitter timeline/feed. Twitter favorites are the greatest example of a feature that never was. - Andy Bakun
retweeting has found me many folks to follow I almost never check favorites counter intutive use of time an attention as the flow of tweets go by and I'm holding a conversations - WarLord
Of course you never check twitter favorites, it's has like zero social utility on twitter, they only ever show up if you click on someone's favorites list. - Andy Bakun
well as long as everyone agrees ff is alive :D - Mike Chelen
Another question: Why are you using Louis Gray as a model? - Amit Morson
Amit: Because we all agree that Louis Gray is our perennial model. Obviously. :) - Christopher Galtenberg
Google reader is an information option for me as well. Different channels give me diverse looks on the stream. 2D plots are dead because 3D plots exist, not in this reality Robert. - Mark Essel from iPhone
I find this interesting that Scoble wonders why people use an RSS reader, but wants more human curation. People need to seed the sharing, and those people are using RSS readers. Twitter would be helpful if there are a group of people curating news for you, then the most popular items continue to get shared. - Rob Diana
@Diana, I totally agree. There's not enough information density on Twitter when compared to the compact layout of Google Reader. I can see which feeds have new items, I then select a feed and scan headlines, drill in and read one or two stories from each, mark the rest as read. Twitter is just a pile of noise compared to the organization that comes with RSS. I do share a ton of links out of Reader into my Twitter stream though. - Crutis
Robert, Not everyone cares so much about real-time .. some of us actually want to find something other than what's hot today or last week. We might even want to have a "conversation" that's semi-organized. - Chris Myles
It's not about information density for me. It's also about quality of content. There are a lot of great writers who aren't on Twitter or FriendFeed. - Steve Lynch from twhirl
another one of those incredibly naive " x technology/service is dead article". Sure the social aspect of Greader may be "dead" but that wasn't Greader's real focus...Greader will keep on going because certain people use it in a way that can't be replicated by twitter/friendfeed or facebook...and people will keep on using twitter, friendfeed and facebook because as similar as they are can be they can be used in very different ways. - David Rodriguez
Chris: me too. But I've been watching how Louis uses Google Reader. It's EXACTLY how I use Twitter (and we often find the same kind of stuff. Only I usually beat him in speed. But you can't see yet what I'm talking about because you don't have Twitter's lists feature.) See my favorites at http://www.twitter.com/scoblei... -- a lot of what is there is what shows up in Google Reader too. But only Google Reader is slower, harder to deal with on the iPhone, and doesn't have a lot of stuff. - Robert Scoble
Amit: I used Louis Gray as an example because I like his Google Reader shares the most. They are very much like mine. Plus he's the guy who got me to come to FriendFeed so he usually is early in seeing things and it's fun to debate early early adopters. Just look at this thread! - Robert Scoble
Robert, I was early adopter on GReader, then got bored.. once we get the low downs on a new software then it becomes boring and (a) we look for other stuff elsewhere ; (b) create community around the S/w component or just (C) just drop the product / software - Peter Dawson
Unrelated question,sort of. Robert, why does your Twitter profile show friendfeed.com/scobleizer as your web page? - Kenton
Seriously? No one's even mentioned the fact that Twitter lists don't work for many of us? We don't have that feature available, and, what's more, when we try to view someone else's lists, we get a 404 error. Hmm. Google Reader works for everyone. Maybe that's why people are still using it. - Curtiss Grymala
I haven't explored much of the social interactions of GReader. If I comment on or like someone's shared feed, it's most likely through FriendFeed. I don't see myself using Twitter for what I use GReader. - Arlan Koizumi
"No one's even mentioned the fact that Twitter lists don't work for many of us?" - LISTS are still in pvt beta mode only. - Peter Dawson
Exactly my point, Peter. - Curtiss Grymala
Kenton: FriendFeed is still the best aggregator in the business. That's why. - Robert Scoble
Curtiss: that's why I specifically called out Louis. He has access to the new list feature. So, it will be interesting to see if it changes his view of Google Reader. - Robert Scoble
Arlan: I think you will, especially when you see lists. I have a list of just major news brands, for instance, and it's a better RSS reader than Google Reader is except if you want full text feeds. - Robert Scoble
Of course many people want full text feeds. I get very irked at partial or headline-only RSS feeds, they usually get booted from my Reader subs. Twitter, with or without lists, has different purposes and different use cases than Google Reader. - LogEx
omg. UNFOLLOW - Joel Bennett
LogEx: I used to be like that but then I freed my mind and got over the full text stuff. Mostly because Google Reader got to be VERY SLOW for me. - Robert Scoble
Joel: see ya! - Robert Scoble
Joel: people who unfollow just because they disagree just seem to be weak souls to me and I'd rather not hang around someone so weak. So, have a good one! - Robert Scoble
Google Reader isn't a good social tool now, but it's the best tool for me for getting feeds from many sites, many of which are not represented on Twitter. - LogEx
It's already done. You've stopped providing valuable previews of cool stuff and are now providing nothing but silly arguments about why x is better than y - Joel Bennett
I didn't unfollow ya because I disagree with you (I *never* thought Google Reader was interesting), I unfollowed you because lately your signal:noise ratio is the wrong way up. - Joel Bennett
Joel: bullshit you are wrong. http://www.kyte.tv/scobleizer is where I show off Twitter lists just this afternoon. - Robert Scoble
Joel: and over on http://scobleizer.blip.tv you'll see me talking to PayPal about their new functionality (among many other companies). - Robert Scoble
Twitter Lists. I don't even have them yet, and I'm already tired of hearing about them :-p - Joel Bennett
Well Robert, maybe I'm just following you in the wrong place. - Joel Bennett
Joel: and over on http://www.building43.com I have a ton of videos where I show off new things and new ideas. Tomorrow Tapulous, who has the #1 iPhone app. - Robert Scoble
Robert, Tapulous has my kids' favorite iPhone game - Jesse Stay
Joel: all this stuff comes to my FriendFeed account at http://www.friendfeed.com/scoblei... (only one out of about 1,000 things I bring in there is negative). Oh, and the best value stuff is my Favorites: http://twitter.com/scoblei... -- no noise there. - Robert Scoble
Joel: I just went to your account and all I see is noise, no signal. So? Should I unfollow? No. Because personally noise is important. - Robert Scoble
Heh, follow, don't follow - either way, makes no difference to me: I'm no social media "influencer," just a plain old dev. I follow people for news or because I know them, and I post to share or converse... - Joel Bennett
I'll just put you on my noisy dorks list who threaten to unfollow because they are too lazy to look for the signal that obviously is there in the first place. ;-) - Robert Scoble
It wasn't a threat, it was a done deal :-P Maybe it was lazy. Maybe it was just annoyance at the way this whole dead-not-dead crap is burying all the signal on FriendFeed lately. - Joel Bennett
Robert. I just watched your kyte video. Good Q&A. I see how the lists can generate interesting metadata about people and sources, leading to a new "authority" race. To be fair how ever, I think that delicious has a lot of the similar metadata/tag information/count when it comes to sources. Do you mashable vs techcrunch comparison on delicious and you will see. So I guess you are right... more... - Edwin Khodabakchian
Robert, this is fun watching and listening to you about the Twitter Lists but actually without being able to make a list, it's like a carrot... http://www.kyte.tv/scobleizer - Myrna
OK, so, I looked over your feed ... and I've realized that YOU don't actually cause the noise, per-se ... it's just that lately, the stuff that seems like noise to me are the ones that get bumped over and over with likes and comments from people defending FF against ya. Maybe I need to find a client that doesn't show the "bump" effect. - Joel Bennett
Yup, he causes it alright, measured reaction ensues - sofarsoShawn
Joel: that's called Twitter. OK, I'm outta here now! Running... - Robert Scoble
Robert: maybe GReader is slow because you are attempting to feed too much into it? Funny, I have been a bloglines lover for a long time and finally 'got' GReader only to be told it's dead. Say it ain't so! :) - Sheryl
Sheryl: I feed a LOT more into Twitter and it is a lot faster than Google Reader. - Robert Scoble
LOL. Robert, when I was personally impacted by divestiture in 1984, I observed that AT&T was dead. I also said, like a shot elephant it would run for miles and miles before it fell over. That's proven true. That dead elephant is still trying to escape. But it is a dead elephant. If GR is dead, it won't keel over any time soon. - Ken Camp
Robert, you may feed more to Twitter and it's faster, but you're the metadata guy. GR and the GOOG have horsepower, momentum, computing and network resources that Twitter can't match for several years. They have the ability, like any real 800 pound gorilla, to overcome that. - Ken Camp
Robert - All that said, I do agree that RSS readers like GR, are a phase that is on the way out. It's peaked. - Ken Camp
I like the 'more...' to comment approach. - Holly Rae, FFer
I don't agree Robert. Google reader fills a need for some people when it comes to consuming content. This is not saying that Twitter isn't a good consumption too. - Seth Goldstein
i wish there were a "disagree' button :( - zʍıɔ

Internet's Tad
How do you feel about prime numbers?
They make me feel vaguely more comfortable than non-primes. #nerd - Internet's Tad
I love prime numbers. Whenever learning a new language my first exercises to learn the syntax are to implement a brute force, Eratosthenes sieve, and Bradly algorithms to find prime numbers. - Sparky Crocker
Primes rock. - LogEx
I feel dirty betting on non-primes in Roulette - Internet's Tad
Tad, if you were gay, and lived in Seattle, ,and were single, and I were single then I'd totally date you. - Sparky Crocker
I love them! Clearly teh gayz and teh nerdz are on to something. - Derrick
LOL Sparky. :) You'd have to shave the beard though. Oh, and I'd have to be gay. - Internet's Tad
I started it with "if you were gay". The beard stays though. STAYS. - Sparky Crocker
I don't like them. They make me uneasy. They aren't divisible by anything. - Rahsheen ™, Coach of FF
When confronted by a non-prime, the first thing I do is factor. - LogEx
They're divisible by 1. Oh and themselves. That's 2 numbers. 2 is prime. - Internet's Tad
Not as good as I feel about prime rib. - Spidra Webster
Me too LogEx. It's like they're cheating. - Internet's Tad
Tad: http://codeforfood.org/code... - does this let me keep the beard? - Sparky Crocker
I'm with Spidra. *HIGH FIVE* - Ha3rvey (more more more)
Since I'm straight Sparky, yeah. - Internet's Tad
Bah, you people love too many numbers, I love only the unique numbers, which I may occasionally cheat on with the primes, because they're my second favorite as a group. - Jimminy
Yeah - 1 prime rib is great. But not 4. - Internet's Tad
Beards and Prime Numbers for everyone! - Sparky Crocker
"They're divisible by 1. Oh and themselves. That's 2 numbers. 2 is prime." Oh hell nah. Not only are they selfish, but cliquish as well. none for me, thanks. LOL - Rahsheen ™, Coach of FF
7 and 11 can kiss my ass - Rodfather
Mike, that's hot. - Internet's Tad
When I play roulette, I only bet on 2, 3, 5, 17, and 23. - Internet's Tad
23? As in chromosomes? The only respectable numbers in that list are 2 and 5. The others can #suckit...LOL - Rahsheen ™, Coach of FF
Ha3rvey - GOOOOOOO MEAT! - Spidra Webster
I'm not a fan of 5, but 2,3,7,11, and 17 are all cool. - LogEx
Um, guys, the irrational numbers are making fun of you. - Ha3rvey (more more more)
And the imaginary numbers laugh at the irrationals. - LogEx
i approve - Internet's Tad
41 is my favorite. - Steven Perez
41 is a woody number. - LogEx
GO BACK TO YOUR OAR, 41. - Steven Perez from IM
Don, but it's not as pretty and perfect in binary(1011). I like 3(11), 7(111), 15(1111), and all of the other numbers of 2^nth -1. - Jimminy
I like number theory. - joey
I think they are odd. - Steve is older than ever
Steve not all of them. I find one to be quite even. - Jimminy
I'm down with the prime numbers. I do not like repeating decimals. - laura x
Yeah, but even that is kind of odd, isn't it Jimminy? - Steve is older than ever
Love their music - Citronella
I feel like a "transformer" :)- - Peter Dawson
17 is my fave. - Joe....
7 is my favorite. - Laura B needin' waders
I only like numbers divisible by 2. - Alex Scoble
I generally agree with this subject, but disagree with its motives. - CW™
I like the idea of lone wolf numbers. :) - The Archangel ωαřмaiden
I actually prefer non-primes for their composite nature. (I would attribute it to how I am from/between two cultures, but I don't think I could BS at length that way.) - Andrew C

American Big Brother Winner Arrested In Drug Bust - http://www.imdb.com/news...
'The champion of last year's U.S. reality TV competition Big Brother [Adam 'Baller' Jasinski] has been arrested in a narcotics bust, after he allegedly used his $500,000 (£333,330) winnings to fund a drug-dealing business.' - Akiva Moskovitz from Bookmarklet
Thus spawning the next big reality show: Big Brother goes to Prison. - Cristo
I didn't watch this season. - Derrick
This, to me, is the most fascinating bit from the article: "oxycodone pills ...are also known as "hillbilly heroin". " I did not know that. - pea ♥ fierce as a woozle
[cue The More You Know jingle] - Akiva Moskovitz
@patricia.. "hillbilly " will take cow dung ..make a cake and will call in " hillbilly Marijuana Cake" too ! - Peter Dawson
This is the guy who was going to give all of his winnings to autism research. - Rochelle
Rochelle, I'm sure he was just trying to raise *more* money to help with autism research. ;) - Cristo
Cristo, either that or he thought that oxycodone itself was going to cute autism. - Rochelle
Ballah...always knew he was trippin' on something. - Josh Haley
yes, good catch Rochelle ;) .. he's also the one that called autistic peope r****** - Tim Hoeck
Shevonne
I am thinking of doing a Whole-Body Cleansing. I am looking at GNC at their detox kits. Has anyone ever tried one?
Most people in the medical field view it as outright shameless quackery. - Wirehead
Detoxing? - Shevonne
the husband of one of my wife's friends used to manage a GNC. resigned from the company over some of the stuff they sell, including the so-called detox kits. - Joe Silence is not dead
Ugghhhhh - Shevonne
I've heard the same thing quite frequently. Sham. - Bren, Photophobe
I thought the best kind of detox was fasting - Lindsey is Fierce!
There are cleansing spas where you stay there and they gradually move you onto a juice diet over several days. They use some other cleansing techniques, and the results seemed pretty dramatic in terms of skin tone and weight loss. - Cristo
To get rid of toxins? - Shevonne
Have you considered a sweat lodge instead? - Todd Hoff
Yeah, detoxing is pretty much considered bs by most medical experts. - Aram Zucker-Scharff
@Todd After seeing the news about the death in some sweat lodges, no thanks - Shevonne
My guess is that Todd was joking, but not sure. - Cristo
oh - Shevonne
There are do-it-yourself diets that are suppose to be cleansing, like the lemonade diet. It uses a salt flush in the morning. - Cristo
I'm starting to get those painful stomach cramps again, so I was thinking detox might help. If it's BS, then I guess Ill make a doctor appointment. I hate doctors! - Shevonne
I don't think detox in general is bogus, but the products you buy from GNC and other places might be bogus. The general concept of detox seems pretty obvious to me. You stop putting certain materials into your body, and there are other things you can do to flush out the toxins that remain. - Cristo
I wasn't Cristo but that would have been a good one :-) An accident or two doesn't mean the whole thing is bad. Or nobody would drive anymore or eat hot dogs. - Todd Hoff
@Cristo Lemonade diet? Ill have to google that - Shevonne
In case you didn't find it yet: http://www.everydiet.org/diet... It's difficult to stay on. I think I did it for 5 days, but you're suppose to do it for more. - Cristo
=) - Shevonne
Also, I wouldn't recommend any of these solutions if you're have severe stomach cramps, as they might just make them worse. If you have other flu-like symptoms, you might have Norovirus, which I unfortunately experienced this summer. - Cristo
@Cristo I have been battling this stomach ailment for a few months, so I think it's that. - Shevonne
Have done a juice fast supplemented with P & B shakes and it definitely works if you see it through. - Eric Logan
Shevonne, take a look at Dan Buettner's Blue Zones http://www.bluezones.com/ and read this NPR piece on what he found on the island Icaria. http://www.npr.org/templat... Detoxification is not an event, it's a lifestyle. - Christopher Harley
Ok serioulsy..whats a "Whole-Body Cleansing" ?? does it mean you sweat out your Toxins and then jut go back to eating a big Mac' and all is ok ? Oh like the old style , cut a vein and let the blood out ?? Like why are people so obssed with this type of BS ? - Peter Dawson
@Shevonne, the former is just a general statement. If you have an aliment go see a doc. A speclist to boot, !! - Peter Dawson
BTW, "Whole-Body Cleansing." in IMHO is physical, mental and spirtual cleansing all together !! Do some Tai Chi, Play Chess, meditation, go to chuch. Help other people, do a good turn.. all this contributes to one's state of body ! - Peter Dawson
Well, I just realized I was typing everything that Jill had said, so...yeah, what Jill said! ;-) I hope you feel better soon. - vicster
I think cleansing is fine to do, but not with any type of crap you might buy from the store. Maybe fasting or going on a juice diet. A laxative. There are even herbal teas for that purpose. Anything less natural than that and I'm raising an eyebrow. Most of those types cleansing products clean *everything* out of you, which is not necessarily a healthy thing. - Rahsheen ™, Coach of FF
I don't trust detoxing either. It sounds like it would do more harm than good. Doesn't the body do a good job of it already? I've been reading about probiotics lately. Maybe that'll help with your stomach issues. There was a nice discussion around one of Kamilah's posts. https://friendfeed.com/kmeelah... - Rodfather

one thing i wanted to ask how you guys manage passwords like Scoble: how do you do it, using lot of services, logging in each time or using some passwd manager?
use shared authentication systems like openid and google account with strong memorable passwords, and also password managers including passpack (web based) lastpass (ff addon) and weave (ff addon to sync saved browser passwords) - Mike Chelen
I use http://www.xmarks.com/ to sync passwords and http://keepass.info/ for safe keeping. - Willem (@wim66) ☠

Rochelle, you just gotta be l33t about it: 5c0b1e. There we go! - Micah Wittman

agree about keepass, it is intuitive and reliable - Mike Chelen
also google/gmail 's passwd strength meters are better than the worpress' , wordpress' and many others like it use number of characters while gmail's check them against dictionary and known names also - ffcode
I wrote the WordPress password strength meter code. It doesn't protect you against using dictionary words or other silly things like that, but it is effective in terms of a bit-strength meter (using length and character sets used). - Otto
KISS method :)- - Peter Dawson
so Otto you work for wordpress? - ffcode
I contribute to the WordPress code, yes. "Work" implies "payment". ;-) WP is open source, anybody can contribute: http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ - Otto
yeah i have seen you on wordpress forums at wordpress.org/support so you aren't a part of automattic? - ffcode
No, I'm not part of Automattic, though I have done part-time work for them before. - Otto

Large Hadron Collider is 'being sabotaged from the future' | News | News.com.au
"SCIENTISTS claim the giant atom-smashing Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is being jinxed from the future to save the world. In a bizarre sci-fi theory, Danish physicist Dr Holger Bech Nielsen and Dr Masao Ninomiya from Japan claim the LHC startup has been delayed due to nature trying to prevent it from finding the elusive Higgs boson, or "God particle"." - Johnny Worthington from Bookmarklet
Dear Scientists... If I was from the future and had the power to effect things in the past... I would probably sabotage the thing before they started.... NOT FRIGGIN ONCE THEY FARKING FINISHED BUILDING IT.!!! - Johnny Worthington
yes but in the future they are far more subtle and elusive so nothing overt like messing with the concrete... - WarLord
Might want to check these guys for drugs. Clearly on the laffy taffy. - Mo Kargas
LOL I don't think drugs would make a difference for Holger Bech Nielsen. His thinking is so far out that not many can really follow him. He's super intelligent but also very awkward. Try and look up the name on youtube :-) - Rasmus Lauridsen
Reminds me of my second quantum physics lecturer in uni a few years ago. Brilliant, but a few really really oddball ideas - Mo Kargas
Yeah, I'm still reading it as Hardon Collider... *sigh* - Mellissa Jane
@Mo: oddball ideas are usually the best ones. ;) - Anthony Citrano from BuddyFeed
Aaah but Johnny, who knows if there is a purpose behind the subtle sabotage. Maybe what the future geeks are trying to do is make the present day geeks work harder and 'solve' the riddle themselves, rather than make out like they have affected the timeline. Maybe we are meant to have the Large Hardon Collider (@Melissa), but its purpose is actually different from what the present day... more... - Travis Koger
I am sure there was a film about this... something like the only way they could communicate with the past was to make really subtle changes that made the present day people think more about the issue. If there wasn't a film, there must have been a Star Trek episode about it (pick any series, NG, Enterprise, Voyager, DS9) - Travis Koger
Although I am sure that Will Wheaton must have been in it. =P - Travis Koger
That sounds like a brilliant Big Bang Theory episode :) - Roberto Bonini from iPhone
This sounds like an episode of Fringe. Are there any mutilated dead bodies lying around in the basement? - Gilbert Harding
Boy, how did these guys pass their psych tests before being let loose on that thing... - Jan Ole Peek
eh ? Angels and Demons story .. same shit different Collider !! - Peter Dawson
