Weight Loss Bets at Work - Can They Go Too Far? {That's Fit}
Feb 19th 2009 3:13PM when did having the big bowl of chocolates on her desk be removed become labeled as "intense"? That seems to be a pretty reasonable way to help lose weight, to have the free chocolates sitting out in front of everyone all day be removed. If she thought having chocolates sit out was a a great idea and all of her co-workers voted otherwise then it seems to me like she really didn't fit in at that job and it's better for everyone that she's gone.
Now if they forced her to park a quarter mile from work so she could walk off some lbs, THAT would be intense.

Jun 24th 2008 5:45PM I was watching this video thinking "god that's slow and it's probably $1,000+!" but then I thought, so were computers ;) Don't think I'd want the model in the video but it'll eventually get faster and cheaper and who knows, 15 years from now maybe...
Antro Solo gas-electric hybrid promises 150 mpg {Engadget}
Jun 24th 2008 5:06PM i don't understand the $18,000 price.
Weighs 600lbs so it's using just a fraction of the steel and materials normal 3,000 lbs cars use, and getting 150mpg means it's probably using a $100 retail 5hp lawnmower engine for power, so exactly why should this thing cost as much as a real car when it's just a glorified recumbent bicycle?

Teen Drivers Ignoring Cell Phone Laws, Study Finds {Switched.com}
Jun 11th 2008 4:27PM "I have never driven while talking on my cell phone. I use the speaker."
That's considered a "hands-free device", and the article specifically states the "difficulty of spotting a hands-free device" which, apparently, is also illegal. So how much should you be charged? And please call your carrier and have your phone shut off immediately.
