I tinker around with composing electronic music on the computer (the stuff you just can't make on a synth) and I sing.

I do similiar things... I posted my page a couple posts back..

Unless it was for some secondary bacterial infection, that would probably be quackery.

Apparently, Doctors use the placebo with their patients more than I thought. It is common knowledge that it works, so are there any ethical problems with using this method?

Not really useful information in the form the news article is presenting it. How often? How much? When? In what setting? What was the "placebo"? Can antibiotics for the common cold be considered placebo?

(I haven't read the study, but these are important considerations that the news article does not address)

This is a really easy one that I remember from childhood....

Mountains will crumble and temples will fall, and no man can survive its endless call.

Looks like you need to be using "New SFN Style"...

We really should get rid of the other styles.

I like it!

Except instead of simply reading and/or posting and leaving, I've already found myself waiting in anticipation for something new to pop up............whoops.....there goes another day......

Dave's most excellent calculus thread is a good example of the GUT idea.

What types of threads or posts do you keep in the Removed Thread Holding Area?

I bought myself an MCAT study guide.

This is the first Christmas in a long while I got no books. I got some gift cards to B&N though.

Is his job to teach, or to rant? That's what I thought. He should be fired for not doing his job. If they want to sue him too, that's up to them, and will be very interesting.

I know it made me think.

Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas everyone!

Cancer takes it all.

(Sorry for the morbid post, it's based on actual patient I had today)

The pager beckons:

"Patient is unresponsive."

My wife eats alone.

That's a good project too...are you part of a team?

Anyone here run SETI@HOME (or other @home projects)? Attach to the SFN team

Everyone sits around a circle and think of the household chore they hate the most, and they write down the reason they hate it. Then everone reads their note, but prefacing it with, "I hate sex, because ..."

Mokele is in the jungle somewhere, I presume.

I'm guessing the OP has to take a urine drug test and wants to purify his urine.

I play chess. We should play sometime!

Snail, where'd you get the snowman? I'm working on a logo now - I'd like to use yours and touch it up a bit..

Softened the edges on yours a bit, Snail. If anyone has the skillz to add falling snow, please feel free to do so.

I can come up with something tonight (though nothing animated...just a photoshop effort.) Providing somebody answers the OP
