Motorola Moto Q



Yes! They have finally announced it! This was code-name Franklin, but Moto is going to market it as the "Q". Not sure if I approve of the name, but they didn't ask me to name it, just help design the interface for it!

Testosterone Nation - 7 Habits of Highly Effective Nutritional Programs:

"1. Eat every 2-3 hours, no matter what. You should eat between 5-8 meals per day.



2. Eat complete (containing all the essential amino acids), lean protein with each meal.



3. Eat fruits and/or vegetables with each food meal.



4. Ensure that your carbohydrate intake comes from fruits and vegetables. Exception: workout and post-workout drinks and meals.



5. Ensure that 25-35% of your energy intake comes from fat, with your fat intake split equally between saturates (e.g. animal fat), monounsaturates (e.g., olive oil), and polyunsaturates (e.g. flax oil, salmon oil).



6. Drink only non-calorie containing beverages, the best choices being water and green tea.



7. Eat mostly whole foods (except workout and post-workout drinks)."



God, I'm never going to get in shape.

Let's be honest, my interest in science has diminished rapidly since I stopped taking classes. I guess that not being immersed in at least some aspect of the field has caused that portion of my brain to atrophy. I used to read New Scientist, Scientific American, Discover, etc every month and now I'll be lucky to catch a news article about NASA on Google News.


Nevertheless, this article off Fark caught my eye: The 125 big questions that face scientific inquiry over the next quarter-century. Intriguing, really.
