Today [10]

[tom982]

I was under the impression that BMI is a terrible method of calculating whether someone is obese?

 

[CB]

True. As it doesn't see differences between fat and muscles. But here we (health care services) are left with no better option until WHO release more reliable method.

 

[tom982]

Ah okay, isn't body fat percentage more reliable?

 

[gregrocker]

Muscle weighs much more than fat. I was always 5' 11" 175# 32" waist with lean muscle but have increased muscle just slightly and am now 190# with 31" waist.

 

[CB]

Yes. As fat (oil base body parts) has less weight than muscles (water base body parts). It is common if men and women with equal body weight will have different appearance in which women look bigger (having more fat than men). Men tend to use more muscle in daily activities (unless getting caught by sedentary life style ).

Just came back from school musical performance. Kids between 7 and 12 only been playing instruments for a year, and they strung together Queen's "We will rock you", and "Another bites the dust" using violins, drums, bass, keyboards, flutes, cello's and saxophone. Freddie would have been proud - it was actually pretty good!

I'm testing out Opera, as it has a much lower memory usage than Chrome for the same number of tabs and webpages being displayed at one time, however, it is struggling to handle some of the HTML documents on the forums, so trying to gather if it's my Internet connection or the browser itself.

I quite like Opera already though.

I have been walking Gracie as usual to-day.

Well I was panicking earlier, Internet connection was down and BT went through all the tests with me disconnecting things and fitting new filters and still no go. After all the tests he did tell me it was nothing wrong with my end or my equipment but they'd had a major incident this morning and although it was fixed they were still stabilises lines and I'd have to wait 24 hours before anything else could be done.:shock:

Yippeeeeeeeeeeee got it back about an hour ago. Even had to go next door, she still had a connection, so I could book a Tesco slot. In some ways it's frightening how we've come to be dependent on the Internet and feel lost when it's down, for me it's age and circumstances that make it essential I have a connection.

 

[x BlueRobot]

We have become very dependent on technology and the Internet, without computers and networking, businesses would struggle to run and the world would be at a stand still.

Opera is running really well since I've enabled the Opera Turbo Boost feature, I like how the browser kept prompting me about my slow network connection

Today I got new keyboard-mouse, logitech mk 220.

 

[Hopalong X]

Archie

I have the 320 keyboard and love it. It has a few extra buttons over 220 but the feel of the keys are the same.

Battery life of the keyboard is over two years so far. The original battery is 28 months and still strong.
Enjoy.

 

[Arc]

Two years? Great!!!
Took it coz I just loved the sleek interface ... so compact it is. Just one thing I am afraid now, it may increase my typos

As it is very compact, it is not properly adjusting with my finger settings, but, will not I be habituated with it ?

 

[koolkat77]

Sure it will ;p

I'm filling out MVP application MS sent for third year re-award January 1st. This is a spreadsheet that wants me to list all of my publications, speaking engagements, etc. into various columns. It is nearly impossible to communicate my contribution of 6-8 hours a day in these forums, and it looks very insignificant on a huge spreadsheet.

It is also frustrating because I learned that for third year re-award they want to see a huge social media presence and 7F also provides all the social media I want - although I added Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn just for them.

And since the company's changed focus entirely to Win8 I don't know that I'm even eligible any longer as a 7 guy. But I've done more this year than the past two so I'll fill out their application. :huh:
