  1. Sporadic update: Nothing new, working on 75 crafting though. (I have the required seaweed)
  2. Oh... It's one of your 10. I haven't even bothered to attempt any of my 10 just yet lol.
  3. Wow Jack you suck at SF, stop playing him. Out of my last 10 games I've won 8 of them [/bragmoar] Albeit I was Jakiro for 3 of those wins :)
  4. You think you want to see it. But trust me. You don't.
  5. Yes. Also, Rox gonna stomp Mouz in the qualifiers. And delicious rares shall be mine!
  6. Good luck with this. It's definitely worth it.
  7. I'm not dead, I'm just busy... Looks like I will be heading back to the mother-lode for a gem bag :P
  8. I wouldn't dismiss starvation diets, they do work. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2466480/pdf/postmedj00373-0059.pdf The article may be 40 years old, but that isn't a reason to dismiss it. :P I think there is that "lighter life" weight loss program too that has been floating around. One of my highschool teachers did it over the summer, none of his suits fit after, he looked too skinny.
  9. B'aww as a Biochemist who has some understanding of human metabolism, I feel what Ring World was saying is slightly off. In regards to the original argument (from what I gather). The statement "I cannot lose weight". Ring World felt that such statement is obviously incorrect due to a thermodynamic explanation that if Caloric Input < Caloric Output = Caloric Loss, thus the body enters a "starvation state". I ofcourse haven't read what anyone else has said on this matter. Human metabolism isn't directly controlled by the caloric intake and physical activity. Hormones mostly dictate how the fuel (The food and energy reserves we have within the body) is metabolised. Humans with leptin resistance (the hormone which signals to our brain that our stomach is full) are prone to over-eating, simply because the hormone is unable to signal to the brain that the stomach is full. On the otherside - Humans that produce an excess of ghrelin would find that they are irrationally hungry despite the fact they may have had recently eaten a substantial meal - and will overeat too. I define obesity as "an imbalance between food intake and energy expenditure". And I strongly believe that majority of all obesity cases (the imbalance) are the result of the abnormal regulation of hormones. Furthermore, caloric intake is controlled by physical exertion and diet-induced thermogenesis. In normal humans, the fat stores remain constant, but obviously as physical exertion decreases the fuel stores will begin to develop. During starvation, the body utilizes these fuel stores, glycogen and fat. After prolonged starvation - protein is metabolised to provide ketone bodies. If *you* can manage a calorie-restricted diet, good for you. But understand that physiologically (endocrinologically) speaking you are likely to be somewhat different to an obese individual. And thus it is likely harder for an obese individual to lose weight. Am I saying all obese people have abnormal endocrines? Sure, shoot me. But yes, Caloric restriction and increased physical exertion will inevitably lead to weight loss. But it isn't as simple as a thermodynamic problem.
  10. And here I thought taking time off to prepare for my own 7 finals, meant "no rs" :P But I am a Biochemistry Major :(
  11. Slow down lol. You are going to surpass me in a week :(
  12. Since you post so lovingly on my blog I shall reciprocate. Good luck in your goals!

    Today...

    What do you call the hole in a donut/ hole in a ring. I need the scientific name for it. I do not wish to use the word cavity.
  14. To be honest I prefer using condoms than bare-backing just because it's easier to clean up (in comparison) afterwards :P, pregnancy + STD prevention are also useful benefits. My girlfriend has had the implant for 2 years or so now. But I still get a mini-heart attack (not quite) every time she says she's missed a period. @RpgGamer, there is nothing wrong in wanting to remain STD and child free. And you can control that (for the most part) with your choice of contraceptive method.
  15. Wow nice luck. Knowing my luck I'll be stuck at both Spirit Mages + Abby demons for well over 1200 kills. Much like I was for cave horrors.
  16. According to a thorough, scientific, Yahoo answer search: No, your balls could still hit her clapper. To reiterate, a condom could reduce the chance of picking up HSV but as it can be passed through via skin-to-skin contact. (according to the Internets) No sexual actorinos for RPGino.
  17. Not a great deal of progress made being honest - other things have been keeping me busy. Nonetheless I am currently Farming up a bunch of my herb seeds (namely the 50 irits) and then I'll have a nice Herblore sesh :33333
