    ***The official health and fitness thread***

    Protein wise, a good target is 1g per lb of bodyweight. At 62kg that works out around 136g/day. That should be achievable without protein powder, but most people (including myself) find it easier and cheaper to use it. I personally don't really like drinking them in shakes, I make my own oat...

    ***The official health and fitness thread***

    +1 for Starting Strength as a beginner. It got me to my PB on Squats (105kg 3x5) which I still haven't gotten back to. Just remember, what you actually do in the gym is way down the list of importance. Diet and consistency is key, its better do a bad program 4 days/week for 6 months...

    Storing and Sharing Photos Online

    Make a separate Facebook account for your kid, and upload all your photos there. Friends and family can choose whether to 'friend' the account and get it all or not bother. It gives you very easy control over who can see what in an interface you presumably already understand. It drives me...

    Mom lets 7-year old son walk to park alone, arrested for child neglect

    I agree with the general tone of the thread that this is a clear overreaction but I disagree with this paragraph, I don't think the result of a choice should define whether a choice itself is acceptable or not. Put simply, the legality of the decision to let a child of 7 walk somewhere alone...

    Why are people so intellectually challenged?

    I think you're taking the internet a little for granted, Wikipedia is a perfect example of a revolutionary resource to rise from the internet. While it's not exactly a single invention, I think the internet will go down with the things like the steam engine as one of the most important...

    Miliband, what a dweeb...

    That's just not the world we live in. Image matters in every walk of life and every profession. Good looking, confident, charming people are more successful, period. The problem with Ed Miliand is that the medias portrayal of Ed Miliband is quite actually a fair reflection of his image. If...

    Why are people so intellectually challenged?

    I'd have to disagree with the sentiment that life is dog eat dog. With the way our government supports our population from cradle to grave, from child benefit to working tax credits to pensions, I can't think of a time when we have ever been less 'dog eat dog'. Nobody is being eaten, the...

    Political Issues

    Gove moving as chief whip may supposedly be something to do with having a loyal Osbourne supporter in the Whips office if the Tories lose the election and need a new leader. Honestly, I can't think of any bigger own goal if Cameron leaves than giving Osbourne the leadership. The Conservative...

    Students

    I think a lot of the problems when it comes to bad parenting stems from the big government approach. In our society whenever there is a problem it is expected that the government fix it. Its a case of 'something must be done, therefore the government must do something'. People are often...

    Politics, politics, politics

    Re: European Elections, UKIP Tops British Polls I for one would be quite happy to see UKIP win a few seats in next years general election. I agree with their goals in relation to the EU, if not for the same reasons. Immigration doesn't bother me and I accept the economic benefits for the...

    I've listened to the clip, he just mumbles. I don't think he said anything.

    Subway.. What no bacon!?

    Don't see a problem with this. I expect these are mainly in Muslim areas, or areas where there are two Subway shops close by. There are two in my town, I imagine it would be smart for at least one to be Halal as it would be able to have its own section of the market even though I don't believe I...

    What's your favourite U.S. sports team?

    San Antonio Spurs, their logo in my avatar, for what should be obvious reasons. I kind of follow the Packers but really don't have an NFL team, I just like to see exciting games. I actually have started liking the Patriots more recently because they are very similar to San Antonio in terms of...

    ESPN 30 for 30: White, Blue and White

    For those who don't know, ESPN's 30 for 30 is a series in which each episode focuses on a different sporting moment or event. I just watched one on the '83 NFL 'Quaterback' draft when Elway and Marino were drafted for example. Anyways, they've started a series dedicated to football stories...

    Garden - My Allotment.

    Looks great mate, very nice. Do you have a blog going? I'd love to keep an eye on it from time to time, something about having an allotment really appeals to me. Why the blood and bones?

    The Cricket Thread

    This 3 run loss is a bit deceptive. Bresnan hit something like 16 off the last 3 balls when Steyn was just concentrating on not bowling a no ball. It was close but the score line flatters England a bit

    The Cricket Thread

    Dernbach has cost England a number of games recently it seems, always gets slogged all over the park. Clearly England miss the presence of Swann and Pietersen in this format, pretty sure Anderson played 4 years ago too.

    Running Thread

    I find running painfully boring. If I do run, I'll do intervals in the gym. 20 second sprint (~19kph) then 40 sec rest, for 10-12 minutes depending on how masochistic I'm feeling that day.
