So what's the proper Modafinil dosage for a 500 gram kitten?

BOOOOOOOOOOOORIIIIIIIIIIING

Seems more like propaganda than anything, there are myriad health problems associated with coffee. Several significant ones include a correlation (dosage dependant) between caffiene intake and heart palpitations, headaches, tremors and insomnia.
http://ije.oxfordjournals.org/content/14/2/239.abstract
This is not even taking into account coffee's relatively high acidity (i.e. don't drink it on an empty stomach) and the long term effects it may have on the central nervous system. Brain scans do show significant differences in blood flow in the brains of drinkers and non-drinkers.
The major reason I don't drink it is because of its addictiveness, I prefer to choose what I put in my mouth-hole, rather than have some dopaminergic neurons tell me what I should be drinking.

bob, it's time to check your dosage, you're slurring.>> ^bobknight33:

They thinks so little of Palin. They must think Obama is a true piece of shit of a President. I mean really She would have done an equal if not better that the current wipe that is in office now.
Heck He makes Jimmy carter looks pretty good. Now we have a new "but of the joke" to use.

Not a single word of hate for Games for Windows Live? Well I'll add it then.

You know when you've slept with one too many strippers and you get a surprise dosage of Chlamydia? That's what Games for Windows Live is. It's a pestulent boil on the otherwise fine, if large, ass of Bulletstorm. It even wanted me to register on XBOX live, even though I'm playing the PC game, presumably as a sex offender.

There is an UI designer that needs a serious whacking with a mouse. When I started the game for the first time, it said "Press Enter to continue" to the menu, I assumed, but when I did, I had to log into Games for Windows Live or burn in hell. So I did, found my login after some brain wracking and typed it all in. Then Games for Wünderkinds Live wanted to update. Alright, Games for Wonderbras Live, I'll play along. "Restart the game now?" But where? I was stuck back at the "Press Enter to Continue" screen in Bulletstorm, with no quit button. Oh, Pepic Can Fly, you dastardly UI Mavericks, I just have to press enter you say? "Plesae log in to Jims in Wanda Live to continue". "You cannot log in to Jims in Wanda Live right now, since it's being updated with more fucking chlamydia" Not only can I not get into the game and play, I can't get the hell out of it.

Researchers are looking again at controlled dosages of psychedelics, this time to treat extreme cases of major depression...

sure, except backscatter is the reasons radiology techs take the precautions they do with their own bodies and wear lead and stand behind walls. it's not high energy, but it isn't entirely benign either. a 60 year old flying once or twice a year, i would not worry about at all.

but like you said, the cornea's of a child who flies a decent amount and grows up to be a business traveler, i'm more concerned.

you still get exposed to more radiation during your flight.

but since this is a TERRIBLE and EXPENSIVE way to fight terrorism, i hate it. and additional exposure to radiation is one of the reasons.

>> ^joedirt:

You can't compare backscatter to equivalent dosage. This isn't high energy X-rays that pass through the body. This isn't like high atmospheric solar radiation that passes through the body.
Backscatter X-rays work by being such low energy, they only penetrate a few mm into the skin then ionize and scatter X-rays to make the image. There is ZERO studies on what this does to children, corneas, or testicles.

Jimmy lived with his mother, suffered from acute social awkwardness in normal situations, but tonight at the Celtics' Game bereft of his usual dosage of pharmaceutical inhibitors he was king.

Whether you feed lab rats a lot of sugar or feed them a lot of HFCS, they both get fat. It's almost the same effect.


It also comes with the added bonus of -15 ability points to cancer resistance. (I kid, I really have no idea if high dosages of HFCS increase susceptibility to cancer in humans but it does in rats, apparently cancer cells love to nom on fructose/glucose)

Yeah, I think some folks should dial down the dosage on their OCD causing medication today and just enjoy a simple joke for what it is...

Maybe its just how I am, but this type of music really isn't my cup of tea. I do punk, some techno, etc etc, anything with a good hard beat. For whatever reason though I enjoy these guys. Maybe its just the small dosage, maybe its the cutesy face or the editing, I dunno. But one way or another I groove to these guys.

I especially like the references to social security and the fake outrage portion of the video. Has anyone heard of a program in the welfare system where typically single females receiving assistance are required to go to home bound social security patients to help around the house? Things like doing dishes, cleaning up, making sure they take their medications. My parents had a renter recently who claimed she "worked" in the health care field, but the description of her duties sounded amazingly like this program. And then they started noticing 18-25 year old males showing up to her rental house throughout the day and late into the night staying for about 5 minutes tops. So best we can figure is, with these elderly folks these people can steal medications and when the elderly aren't improving they either up the dosage to compensate or switch medications at the doctors office. Leading to a whole other host of problems when the elderly folks don't have someone stealing from their medicine cabinet and their dosages start overpowering them.

It's about the worst possible idea I could think of to have welfare assisted people put in a position where they could steal medications, but Im guessing their back hurt at every other job they tried.

The ADA, NSL and CDC all state that flouride is not harmful to us and advocate it's use in our water supply to help prevent tooth decay. It's GOOD for you!

Ok.. fine what's a little bit of extra toxin in our daily diet... it's not like we're getting this fluoride from a dictatorship-style run country with a health violation record regarding it's products exported.

I mean, we're getting top-grade pharmaceutical quality fluoride from nature (according to the ADA). Our politicians and corporate CEOs overseeing the process would have nothing less because they care for their end users.

I mean, it's not like they're siphoning these toxic chemicals (complete with arsenic, lead and radons) in an unrefined and unprocessed state directly from fertilizer plant smoke-stacks. The same ones where they used to emit these fluorides as gasses into the environment and kill off the animal and plant life in the township near the plants (until regulation prohibited them from this process). Now we have an effective method of discarding these toxic chemicals - by putting it in our drinking water.

Absolutely Genius!!!

We should be thankful they're giving us fluoride. According to the Health Science Channel our daily fluoride dosage is what is keeping our tooth enamel from falling apart. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKgZeeBpBQc

I do find it strange though that this water treatment facility has turned off their fluoride integration and have still yet to investigate why this Chinese fluoride is clogging up their system. The CDC and NSL says it's safe though so we can put away any fears of contamination. Why would they lie to us? That would be scandalous would only serve to harm their reputation on the subject of fluoride. Still, how long would a spectroscopic test take? I don't understand why they haven't shown proof of it being safe. Some empirical data on this batch of fluoride might reassure the public.
