Yes, I've just suggested that CP should start a web hosting service.
Other than that DiscountAsp.Net were always pretty good (but pricey) and Arvixe have been a little better lately.

I like DiscountASP.Net as well but I am not sure if they support that Word flattening service.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Arvixe looks good, and its rating on every ratings site I've checked is much higher than GoDaddy. I think that might be the ticket, thanks!

I like http://WinHost.com[^]. It's inexpensive,they offer free trial period. Has good up-to-date asp.net hosting and features.
I also think https://www.smarterasp.net/[^] is inexpensive, offers a free trial and offers decent support etc.

I second the Arvixe nomination: I've been using it for a number of years, and not had problems getting technical support or with the service (DDoS attacks notwithstanding, and they mitigated those pretty quickly)

Indeed - the idea of calibrating gravitational lensing is not at all obvious.
According to my calculations, I should be able to retire about 5 years after I die.

For the 25+ years, I taken my coffe with 1 teaspoon of sugar and a few drops of milk; essentially, I drank it the may my mother drank it.
A couple of weeks ago, I thought about the amount of sugar I was consuming via cofee, and at 6 to 8 mugs a day, that started to add up.
I decided to forego the sugar; a week later I decided to forego the milk as well.
However, in the morning, my reflexive action is still to reach for the sugar bowl.
I have changed how I take my coffee, but stopping the muscle-programmed-action is taking somewhat longer.

That is the way it is when quitting any habit. The physical behavior remains after the psychological is gone. You have to replace bad habit with something else, or the old habit comes back.
(of course, I don't think a few lumps of sugar is a bad habit)

The old GDA for sugar was 120 g/day for men: http://www.gdalabel.org.uk/gda/gda_values.aspx[^]
But...the WHO has recently reduced that to 50 g/day: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-26449497[^]
One teaspoon of sugar is 6g: so 6 to 8 mugs a day, is ~42 g/day, and that's before any of the sugars in fruit (10~20%), vegetables (1~10%), milk (5%), and processed foods (variable, can be enormous %)
So...cutting it out could be a good idea - and one I might have to consider myself.

That's funny. I wouldn't have thought about that. But yeah, I suppose the 'making coffee ritual' is pretty well coded.
Sounds like moving the sugar/rearranging the physical routine is in order. (Or get coffee from someplace else where you're not familiar with the layout for a little while, etc.)

I'd reduce the coffee before reducing the sugar and/or milk.
It is better to reduce the quantity of something you like (coffee with sugar and milk) to something you do not really like (coffee with no sugar or mild).
Anyway, I only drink one coffee per day; so your call.
I'd rather be phishing!

Don't be judgmental. Maybe it is a really small cup, to force extra trips around the office, to burn off all the sugar calories.

Now why didn't I think of that!

I like my coffee; milk and sugar are additives, but not essentials.
And since I rarely consume soft drinks/sodas/cokes (pick your preference), I think that healthwise, I'm still better off.
My blood-pressure is low and has been for 30+ years, so the coffee may help uptick it a little...

Coincidentally, I use very little added sugar and salt in my diet. It's a matter of taste, more than anything. But I have to work on my end-of-day chocolate ice cream craving.

CG is similar. He is on a no-sugar diet but consumes large quantities of ice cream

Coincidentally, he's also Aquarian.
