    Any Google Voice Users Here?

    I have an account and use it frequently. Even though I don't route my calls there it now acts as my primary voicemail and call log. Best thing (in my opinion) is that it transcribes each voicemail in under 10 seconds and sends me an email with the transcript. Awesome. I have two invites, so PM...

    ***Official ISU vs CU Game Thread***

    Key stats of the game: CO ISU Rebounds (Off) 21 (6) 44 (11) Blocks 0 12 Turnovers 4 19 (lost 10 steals) I'm not even watching, but those stats scream poor guard play and a dominant post game for us. Get it to CB and Ham!

    Lucca, Booz and Lee

    Didn't see the Register link yet: ISU's Staiger considering return to Germany, ending run with Cyclones | DesMoinesRegister.com | The Des Moines Register. Sounds like Lee is confirmed to be gone, McD sees Lucca playing a bit more next year, and Booz is still on the fence.

    Suit purchase

    I'll throw in Nordstrom Rack - especially if you know your size and know a good tailor. You can find excellent suits for super cheap. Also, I would recommend going to multiple places and try on different brands. The cut of a suit off the rack may feel funny. For example, I need a thinner cut...

    Why is Valley HS Never Good in Basketball?

    As a member of that team, I see those years as a real turning point for the program and you could feel it in the locker room. I can easily see how future classes would prefer to work hard to dominate in football, track or soccer over basketball. Another key point to be made is that the...

    BCS Worst Nightmare

    I still don't understand how the playoff doesn't happen, and you can't tell me it's about the money because I know the NCAA would make more $$ having a 1v4 and 2v3 semifinal game than playing the MagicJack St. Petersburg Bowl, Eaglebank Bowl, New Mexico Bowl and Motor City Bowl combined. You...

    Climate denier testimony - a good read

    Global policy never works - it's too expensive and never equitable. What were going for isn't a level playing field, it's equitability. It doesn't mean loss of jobs, it means changing jobs - in the long term domestic job levels will remain approximately the same if our GDP and population...

    Climate denier testimony - a good read

    A good read indeed. Although I am afraid that many skeptics read something like this and use it as a basis for inaction. I hope that there are policy makers and innovators out there who read this as a charge to answer his outlying questions and issues. The thing I find that's interesting in...

    Good god, then Keith Murphy will sound like a bad episode of Sex and the City: Keith remarks in dreamy narrator voice while typing on his laptop at the desk "Will this be a threesome to be reckoned with?" alternatively: "Will this threesome go all the way?" UnCut Video - Now Playing...

    Enough of Going Green and Global Warming

    This is where it gets interesting, as I only consider the benefits you list alternative energy sources (solar, geothermal, wind, biomass, nuclear), energy efficiency (buildings and infrastructure systems design) to be the ONLY truly "green" initiatives on a systemic level. Other "green"...

    MLB: Unassisted Triple Play Turned Tonight.

    I turned one in Little League once - similar situation only I was playing first base. I was the chubby kid, so I had to understand what was going on and I didn't trust my arm to throw the ball to second base after catching a line drive and stepping on first, so I ran over and stepped on the...
