I was always curious what the RF eavesdropping tool would look right, and sure enough, it’s creepy.

The next 4 readers that leave me a comment with their email address will get a joost invite!

This makes the second time my readers and friends have gotten an invite to Joost, and I hope to keep doing it. One friend has yet to let me know if he has gotten an invite yet, so I’m reserving the last one for him. If he does have an invite already, I’ll pick a person randomly from the remaining comments to get the invite.

I couldn’t believe this when I saw the headline, but it’s true of course.

These three guys ran all the way across the Sahara Desert

Sure, it took them over 100 days to do so, one even remarked that he wouldn’t do it again.
I’m left to wonder what their shoes looked like after that one?

Well, that’s a good question, one that I’m sure the doctors don’t explain good enough to you.

The point here is that the medicine in Chantix is brought up to an acceptable level, (titration) and begins to activate in your head the little parts that scream for more nicotine. By the 8th day, it’s been working overtime in your head and you should have started to feel like you don’t get that high when you smoke.

For me, and others that I’ve read of, they start to get a feeling of not wanting to smoke anymore by the 3rd day, or at least their addiction isn’t telling them that the cigarette tastes good anymore. By the clinical studies that were performed, the 8th day seemed to be the best median time for all those studied to try to stop the smoking. You could try to stop by the 3rd day, but it could all be for naught: you are still addicted in your neurons.

You just didn’t know for those 8 days that you got no chemical reward for smoking, since it was already activated, and thus on the 8th day you are very unlikely to have the reward system telling your brain to get you to smoke.

In case you haven’t seen the cursing landlord with Will Ferrell, you can over here on Wired.

I’d really much rather leave Wired in the mix, since it was their rss feed that gave it to me.

Let’s say you have a sheet called “Budget” and you have a sheet called “April07″, and you want to include a value from Budget into April07. I didn’t know how and I had to ask someone in a group about how to get the value on there.

I should have just tried this solution, but it ended up being this simple:

=Budget!A37

Now, if I wasn’t afraid of spaces anyway from being a programmer, I would have put a space in April 07. If you did have a space, then you can just put in: =’April 07′!A69

I hope this helps anyone else that wants to include a value from any sheet in another.

There is some research out that states smoking may help a couple different conditions.

Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn’s are both diseases that are calmed by smoking.
I’d suggest that if your stomach problems are related to that, or you don’t know, see a doctor.

If it helps, then you can chew some nicotine gum, however smoking does cause many other ailments, like cancer of the entire system that gets the nicotine to that stomach area. Did I mention smoking can make you have more GERD?

Quite a few people showed up at my site, asking this seemingly easy question.

It’s related to several things, being, what system gets rid of the drug (Chantix is varenicline).

Chantix is excreted Renal, which means your kidneys get it out of your blood, at a rate of 80-90%.
Very small amounts are converted to another substance. The time you take a pill, to the time it’s mostly gone is at a minimum 24 hours, up to 48. This means that if you stop taking the pill you should be able to defeat the craving.
Compared to the hundreds, if not thousands of other substances in a puff of tobacco, you’d be better off with just the one in chantix.

How much alcohol can you consume in one week?

I think it’s best to reference this article I wrote, but didn’t exactly say the phrasing right.

You could read this first, which is a good overall picture.

Then, please remember that 2 per day is not considered bad. Binge drinking… like a 12 pack a day is considered a bad thing.
