Anyone who thinks German brewers adhere to that these days needs their head testing.
I tested it and it turns out German beer is 100% carbon dioxide!

In America, at least, we usually just keep adding syllables until it not only sound right, but it makes us sound super smart.

Submission + - Pirate Bay case ends in guilty verdict
mazarin5 writes: The owners of The Pirate Bay have been found guilty in their ongoing case:
From a guardian.co.uk article:
"A Stockholm court found the four defendants guilty of making 33 specific files accessible for illegal sharing through The Pirate Bay, which means they will have to pay compensation to 17 different music and media companies including Sony BMG, Universal, EMI, Warner, MGM and 20th Century Fox.
Kolmisoppi commented: "Stay calm — nothing will happen to TPB, us personally or filesharing what so ever. This is just a theatre for the media"
They plan to appeal the decision.

17% is completely healthy. In fact, most health professionals recommend a target BF% of 16%. Essentially, it breaks down like this:
05%BF: Essential fats; don't go below this
10%BF: Athletic range;
20%BF: Healthy range; with a 16% optimum
25%BF: Overfat; but not considered horrible
>25%BF: Obese
(For women, the numbers are 8%,17%,25%, and 30%, with an optimum of 20%)

They were shocked when I introduced them to another tester who tested board games in the 1970's.
Oh wow, so before video games people used to play with pieces of lumber?

I like how you felt the need to provide a wikipedia link, just in case we wouldn't know what that was.

How about if the FBI confiscated the luggage from every room in a hotel, just because 1 of them had 50 kilos of cocaine in their room?
And to make it even more appropriate to this situation, the man with the cocaine hasn't stayed at that hotel for months.

I would pay to watch that. A modernized version of "Twelve Angry Men" (and I don't mean that episode of Monk) might not be a bad thing, if pulled off right.
No, let's not. You know that the year after that they'll release "Thirteen Angry Men" with George Clooney and Steve Martin.

Send up seawater. Don't think there's gonna be a shortage of that in many million years. Hell, everyone keeps complaining about Venice slowly sinking into the rising ocean.
Yea and the huge flood that global warming is sure to incur. It might be a good idea to start bailing the water out now.
A little OT but I wonder if this came about during the same brainstorming session that is trying to figure out how to accidentally push space junk into China's upcoming space stations.
