does anyone know what those things are called that you cook the coals in, and then you flip it over and they are all well lit. I wrote that into a search engine and couldn't find anything. I also put "coal cooker" and it gave me searches for grills.

My advice is it may be best to start with a vegetarian diet. My second advice is DONT SEEK MEAT SUBSITUTES. Tofu stirfry is one thing, but immediately on trying vegetarianism, my friends would try tofu burgers and it would turn them off. Look toward indian cuisine. Use Eggplant and lentils. Rice, beans, peppers, and lime are your friends. I've just seen that the quickest way to failure is typically the "What's the vegetarian answer for a burger" even though black bean burgers are pretty dope. But you could also start small by trying pescatarianism.

What's the odds of getting your phone hacked? The fact that this is fairly routine in Japan leaves me hopeful this is something that can be overcome.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ May 24, 2011 -> 08:46 PM) bad comparison, an e-reader isn't a tablet and a tablet isn't an e-reader. Different markets for different purposes. I went with the nook because it allowed me to read open-source books, like stuff off of project gutenberg and borrowed library books. The Kindle doesn't (or at least didn't). But their "ereader" is a lot more expensive than the kindle, but they justify it with more features.

I don't, really. Last game a lot of things on paper were okay: james + wade in check, boozer scored, bogans with +6 pts, and we weren't even close to winning the game. We won't be able to overcome the heat if they get to the line 30+ times, and they weren't even driving and were getting that many calls. I don't think the bulls can overcome that.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 23, 2011 -> 03:52 PM) It's truly amazing how much travelling is allowed in the NBA. The Bulls do it sometimes too, but no one does it as much as LBJ & Wade. There was one play where James took a step, made a jump stop, landed on two feet, and then took two more steps towards the hoop. If that's not travelling , I don't know what is? that drove me nuts. and it lead to 2 pts!

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 23, 2011 -> 03:35 PM) I really just want a level playing field. That out of bounds call on Luol Deng was inexcusable. I just can't get over it. Also, on the news this morning they showed 5 baskets that LBJ scored on where he took FIVE STEPS! Five! It's just depressing... on a level playing field, the Bulls are up 2-1 at worst. Anyway, I hate being that guy, but it's f***ing true. I don't like being the blame the refs guy either, but this is the exact reason i did not want to play the heat. Every time the bulls started to make a run, and get a stop, then an offensive foul call would come against them, miami ball. Then shooting foul aginst the bulls, two free throws for miami. Rose has to get hacked on his hands on the shot, not on the drive, to get a foul called. It sucks, and it's hard to win with that s***.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ May 23, 2011 -> 02:19 PM) I don't know if it's overvalued or not, but LinkedIn has a very strong chance of becoming essentially Facebook for business, a market that Facebook will never be able to capture and a market that has no other competitors. 5 years ago if Facebook had gone public with a high price like this I'm sure your reaction would have been the same. Yeah, I think LinkedIn's opening was ridiculous, but there are many things different than the first tech bubble. First, that most of the big tech companies are profitable and have real business models, and are not just doing fundraising rounds and spending it as quick as they can. LinkedIn's b/c of their business angle has a lot of opportunity for profit growth. They are just tapping into that now. But they are a lot further along than twitter.

i suppose if you are going for 1 day you are correct. So clearly secondshare can be a good indicator for anyone looking to make a quick turn around on an IPO

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ May 20, 2011 -> 02:51 PM) I just kept watching that stock rise and rise on google finance, if I had paid attention enough to know it was going public I would've jumped on the wave early on. from what i read the first real purchase of it was at $83. Which at that point, I'm not sure i'd be confident I'd get a good return. But I DO think LinkedIn is a solid company, with real revenue and chance for growth.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 19, 2011 -> 05:38 PM) IN the first quarter especially. They were all open looks based on ball movement but the shots wouldnt fall. Right, but if you are keith bogans or kyle korver and you get a wide open 3 look, we need them to take those shots. Korver has to make an impact on offense to have any sort of value. He's driving me crazy with this cold streak.
