We've known for many years that cancer cells cannot survive in an alkaline environment. The problem is our modern way of eating is very acidic.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Really? You are seriously promulgating a diet change to cure cancer? Words fail me...
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

I guess you are unaware. Google it. Don't take my word for it.

The pH of your blood is one of the best buffered parameters in your body. It is kept in a small, tight range (7.35 to 7.45), regardless of your diet. You suffer very serious consequences instantly, if it moves out of this range.

I see you've only read the articles endorsed by the medical industry.

Ordered some strictly limited CD edition by some obscure band.
It came in a black embossed carton sealed with wax (with the label's logo).
I was able to leave the stamp intact, but the carton has some wear now.
It's awesome that this band actually creates a complete package that adds to the magic of buying a CD.
I've got hundreds of jewel cases, I've got only one wax seal 
The music is like none you've ever heard before: (DOLCH) - I & II (lavish CD edition)[^]

Opeth had a similar thing on their Watershed special edition (along with an added DVD that contained a documentary and 5.1 remix of their album). Wasn't real wax though. But the whole thing looked like an envelope, the address was the album title and band name and I think the stamp used was the Lopez's headshot when he cut his hair. But the back was very similar to this one only not real wax and white with red "wax".
Here is a picture of the back.[^]

Very nice!
And speaking of special album cases, how about Tool's 10,000 Days[^].
That one's awesome, the glasses create a 3D effect on the album art

Wow, must look very nice, a bit trippy perhaps? .
Lateralus also has an interesting album case. I mean it's pretty usual but instead of the lyrics there is a little booklet which is made of transparent sheets of paper and has drawings on them. Together they make a picture but looked at one by one they have their own meanings that aren't necessarily apparent when viewed together. Kind of the point/style of Lateralus - little pieces creating a whole.
This is the full picture.[^]

You should get two copies; one to open and one to keep sealed.
That said, I regularly buy CDs that never get played if Amazon provide the MP3 files immediately.
|

Not a bad idea, but I really don't need a sealed copy 
I just bought an LP that came with a download code, that LP is never going to see my LP player either 
I buy mainly because I like collecting and because some bands just really deserve the support

which I read is to be expected and will return to normal height soon.
What the article didn't say was that has to be discomforting growing 2 inches in one year and then going back in reverse.
no link provided. story is on CNN, but I am sure other outlets as well.

who said it was height and not length ? (asked by my GF).
I'd rather be phishing!

Has she sent an application with your name on it to NASA?

So it is gravity after all that kept me out of the NBA

Just curious about his clothes; I wonder if it affected his feet and shoes.

Well, you should be able to tell us. It's perfectly normal for people to 'grow' an inch or more simply lying in bed for eight hours which is then reversed through the day as gravity recompresses your spine while it is upright. We're all longer in bed than we think! So unless you sleep standing up you have this experience pretty much every day!
If the rigid exercise routine that ISS inhabitants go through every day to maintain bone density and muscle and tendon/ligament health has worked it shouldn't be that much different once the whole getting used to there being gravity at all process has been gone through.
I am not a number. I am a ... no, wait!

I'm trying to imagine common sports without gravity.
- Football,
- Basketball, trying make a basket, no gravity induced arc, everybody slam dunks
- Baseball, every kid hits it out of the park
- Hockey, the fans would have to help put the players back
- Track And Field, "Oops, coach, we just lost another one !"
- Ping Pong, eternally changing serve, always score zero

I think boxing would be pretty entertaining as well. A good punch could send you spinning.

I don't know, I've played ping pong with people that put a tremendous amount of spin on the ball. It's obviously affecting the trajectories (by a lot!). You may be able to make it work in a zero gravity situation. I'd be willing to give it a try if someone would pay for the trip!

Yeah, I think there was an episode of The Magic School Bus about that.

I'm guessing the air is not so fresh on the ISS.
