I think you're right about her having personal reasons for this. I watched her video on GAC after writing the comment above. I think what it has in common with the capitalism video…

These are fair criticisms. No matter which side of the 'capitalism is good' debate you are on this video was so bad, with errors of history and even of definition, that I was left …

On the back of his Ambient 4 album Eno gave instructions for a cheap way of getting a sort of surround sound using a third speaker. I did this as a teenager with my mediocre record…

Nah - I think they're daft kids and Shakespeare is showing us that. The play begins with Romeo utterly in love with Rosaline - what's that for if not to show us not to take his fee…

I train three times a week - as little as twice a week is enough if you're pressed for time. My back problems gradually improved over two years of training. I had a disk that had s…

I've had my bodyweight (110 KG) stuck on my chest with no ill effects other than embarrassment. As the parents say, simply slide the weights off, or ask anyone nearby for a hand. O…

Same here - literally life changing. I tried free weights a few years ago after reading the article - loved them - bought the Rippetoe book and didn't look back. I'm 46 now, before…
