Are you drinking all your calories?
2009-10-25 22:48:00 If you're a busy person on the go you're probably consuming a popular beverage at least 3 times a week (if not every day). Starbucks has taken over every corner of the city, Jamba Juice is ever so popular and energy drinks such as; Monster, Red Bull and Rockstar are go to drinks when people are tired.

One problem is that many people will fore go a nutritious meal for one of these drinks. Or consume...

NASA Purified urine to be drinking water
2009-09-15 20:41:00 Purified urine to be astronauts' drinking waterAs NASA prepares to double the number of astronauts living aboard the International Space Station, nothing may do more for crew bonding than a machine being launched aboard the space shuttle Endeavour on Friday.It's a water-recycling device that will process the crew's urine for communal consumption."We did blind taste tests of the water," said NASA's Bob Bagdigian, the system's lead engineer. "Nobody had any strong objections. Other than a faint taste of iodine, it is just as refreshing as any other kind of water.""I've got some in my fridge," he added. "It tastes fine to me."Delivery of the $250 million wastewater recycling gear is among the primary goals of NASA's 124th shuttle mission, which is due to launch at 7:55 p.m. EST on Friday from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.Meteorologists predicted a 70 percent chance the weather would be suitable for launch.With no technical issues, NASA managers told the launch team on Fri...

PowerPoint Drinking Game
2009-08-11 19:54:00 What good are the many pleasures of alcohol if they can not serve to relieve the tedium of a PowerPoint presentation? The Booze The most difficult part of any office drinking game is consuming alcohol without raising suspicion. If you have an opaque container, your choice of beverage is unlimited. If you've got a clear water bottle, vodka, (strained) Goldschlager or Everclear will work. If you're limited to a coffee mug, add a little coffee to a hard liquor of your choosing to pull off a convincing look. Always remember: Kahlua is for pussies.

Stop Drinking Alcohol
2009-05-26 17:44:00 Whatever people tell you, alcohol is one of the most addictive drugs ever invented, and possibly the most dangerous. Alcohol abuse has been a problem for practically as long as alcohol has been around, and it is a worse problem than with any other drug.Many people struggle in vain for years to stop drinking alcohol, even as the drug destroys their bodies and minds. Drinking rehab is much more popular than any other sort of drug rehab program, and it will only keep growing.In my particular case, my problem drinking was related to drug control. Originally, I used to smoke pot, but it was much easier to get wasted on alcohol.I don't blame the drug policy for my alcohol addiction, but I do see it as a contributing factor. If alcohol is the only way you can get legally, than people who are prone to alcoholism are much more likely to get addicted to it instead of using safer alternatives.There is more to it than that, however. Otherwise, I could have managed to stop drinking alcohol much...
Amazing FLUID faucet doubles as drinking fountain
2009-05-14 17:52:00 Get rid of that toothpaste-encrusted cup, and get ready for FLUID, the faucet that turns into a drinking fountain with a simple flick of your wrist. Twist the knob on the side to adjust the water temperature, and move the "nose" to a level position to stop the water flow. The farther up or down you move it, the faster the water flows.It's a concept from Köhler Design, a German group of designers not to be confused with the all-American Kohler Company, toilet makers to the stars, and creator of faucets that qualify as works of art. Maybe the two should team up and get this unique faucet into bathrooms across the world, pronto.Either that, or we're getting one of those toothbrushes that also gives you water-fountain capability. Because really, how do you rinse after brushing? Put your mouth on the faucet? Use a messy cup that invariably gets caked with all that toothpaste on your mouth? Or cup your hands under the faucet? --If you like this post, then please subscribe to my Also yo...
A Drinking Life
2009-05-04 00:30:00 I have a few friends who really, really dislike Trader Joe's. One of the things cited is that everyone's so happy and nice there. It is a bit weird -- once I got sushi there, and it sucked, and I drunkenly wrote in a (very polite, and drunk) complaint. The next day I got a call from the manager, who was almost suicidally apologetic, offered me free sushi, and a free shopping spree if that wasn't enough. I felt so awful about it all that I never took them up on either.Anyway, I don't have a problem with the happiness and I shop there often. But one thing I found out today: it's really the worst place on earth to go shopping when you're severely hungover. God.On a happier note, I went out drinking bloody marys (in an attempt to subdue said hangover) with the Elk, and at the bar we attended there were several posters indicating: New Belgium beers are coming here soon. Which means Fat Tire. Which means that problem drinking is about to get a lot better.* * *I actually forgot to po...

Boil Drinking Water Order
2008-06-07 20:13:00 Yesterday our town issued a "boil order notice" because the town drinking water supply tested positive for contamination with fecal coliform or E. coli bacteria. According to town officials:Fecal coliforms and E. coli are bacteria whose presence indicates that the water may be contaminated with human or animal wastes. Microbes in these wastes can cause diarrhea, cramps, nausea, headaches, or other symptoms. They may pose a special health risk for infants, young children, some of the elderly, and people with severely compromised immune systems.The symptoms above are not caused only by organisms in drinking water. If you experience any of these symptoms and they persist, you may want to seek medical advice. People at increased risk should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers.It is also important to note that Escherichia Coli (e-coli) is a specific species (subgroup) within the coliform family.
