  1. I think it is not so simple to fix the health care system. However to start with Hospitals should not be obliged to treat patients without insurance or payment (unless life threatening situations). But I don't think this is going to happen anytime soon.
  2. I beleive the quality is going down.. But walmarts in my area are expanding. New ones are being built and regular stores are being converted to superstores.. But I hate to see there is no one with the "May I help you" tag around here. There are a hundred cash counters but only one or two have people in them. It seems as if there are just 4 people running the entire store. Out of which two people are at the entrance greeting.
  3. The medical system is broken. And the problem is no one seems to understand that is is. Here are a few things to do.First thing is to kick out insurance people from the medical world. You go to a doctor,you pay up. The middleman (insurance) does not add anything productive to the system but leaches on it.Second kick out lawyers and lawsuits. It is these lawyers who don't add anything to the GDP of a country. Nothing against them, they are needed in several areas. But should be minimized in health care. Unless the doctor really screwed up, one should not be allowed to sue the doc. Docs are paying about 30K a year in Malpractice insurance. They take this money from the consumers.
  4. It is fascinating to see the death clock only once after that it gets boring. I did input info about people who are dead (famous people) and the death clock still showed their death day. Of course it did not come to me as surprise. I just wanted to see how it went
  5. 3cm of thermal grease does not seem to be correct ! Usually even gap pads are not that thick.Usually companies that make laptop have a limit of touch temperature to be under 50C. So if you are touching the laptop and it is hot then possibly something is wrong with it.
  6. I think it will be a reality soon. Google benefits from it. Here is how it makes money. Every time people search for content, it is an opportunity for a search engine to shove down advertisements. Just like youtube. So, google wants people to spend as much time as possible doing stuff like this.
  7. I believe that collaboration between multiple smaller websites is better than the sites being by themselves. For instance, say you have a gardening website and there is another cooking website if both the websites are merged then the combined strength of the website will be much more. Google and other search engines will give it a higher ranking because the website has more content in it and the website is likely to be linked from more sources. The only issue can be "Who is the real domain owner". If people get beyond that, (possible at least in family and friends). Then the collective worth of the website will improve. May ad based websites advertise only in sites with higher traffic. So this might be helpful there too.
  8. The reasoning I was given about not drinking water while eating was that, the stomach generates bile juices to digest food. These juices get diluted if you drink water during food. As a result your digestion suffersI however, feel that this might not be a correct
  9. Poker Sites are Illegal Beware. The CEO of Party Poker.com (one of the most famous poker site) was sent to jail for 5 years. Moreover, when you deal with a business where there is a lot of money circulation, it tends to be very risky. Any hack or any any system crash can lead you into trouble.
  10. Racism will always exist in several forms.Every race is racist up to some extent. The true test of being non racist is when none one can tell which race you are from based on your statements and actions.
  11. Yes, myopia can be cured naturally with exercises. However, it might be really hard to do so. I know my friend was able to get rid of his glasses -2.0 by taking care of his diet and exercises. However, when I tried to do the same it did not work for me. I tried a lot of things, like eating carrots daily to doing a bunch of acupressure exercises. Nothing worked for me. The power did not even reduce a bit to give me some encouragement. I gave up hopes after about one year. There are a bunch of bogus websites all around which claim that they have exercises that can correct your eyesight. but I don't trust any.
  12. To be frank, when you start learning any martial art the first thing to do is exercise. keep exercising! for at least 6 months. Initially when I was learning martial art, our instructor did the same. It was really annoying to go to a martial arts class and just do some exercise and get back. But soon we started realizing that martial art is not magic it is how you mold your body based on exercises
  13. I am still looking for a good website font. I think CNN and Google do a good job with that. The issue is, whenever I go for something that looks nice, it makes the site look childish. One thing I always wonder is, why do all these discussion forums all around internet look the same (or more or less the same).
  14. I almost got a headache.. I wonder how you stumbled across this one ?I did not know they thought web design in kindergarten I think I can volunteer and help them design a better website.
  15. The best and fastest way to loose weight I have seen so far is "SKIPPING Rope" or "Speed Jump Rope". You can start doing it for a couple of minutes in the morning couple of mins in the afternoon and again in the evening. You can see results in one week. Just remember that like any exercise you have to start off slow. i.e. 30 seconds the first day and slowly increase the time. You may feel a bit of pain in your calf the first week. But soon you will get good at it. This method is for people who are under 40. Beyond that it can hurt your bones.
