Cell Phone Exposure May Protect Against and Reverse Alzheimer's Disease
The millions of people who spend hours every day on a cell phone may have a new excuse for yakking. A surprising new study in mice provides the first evidence that long-term exposure to electromagnetic waves associated with cell phone use may actually protect against, and even reverse, Alzheimer's disease. The study, led by University of South Florida researchers at the Florida Alzheimer's Disease Research Center (ADRC), was published January 6 in the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease.
Silencing Brain Cells With Yellow and Blue Light
Neuroscientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have developed a powerful new class of tools to reversibly shut down brain activity using different colors of light. When targeted to specific neurons, they could potentially lead to new treatments for abnormal brain activity associated with disorders including chronic pain, epilepsy, brain injury and Parkinson's disease.

First that study regarding magnetic fields helping people with depression and now this light stuff
Soon, we will be blasting our brains with freely available happyrays!
but there will be a subcarrier signal used for government mind control so the space lizards that are in charge can keep us docile
It goes beyond that. I have incontrovertible proof that the government is not only able to control our
What? Control our motor functions to such an extent that they can make us hit the reply button earlier than we
false-color is so cool
Hmm. I don't recall typing that message. I wonder if it's the government using some of their mind control on me and making me look li
Look, that shit isn't funny anymore. Hah hah, look at me, I'm pretending that the government
You know what they should do
They should print out a ginormous (I mean like, 40 feet) version of this and make it some sort of inlay into the ground that people can just walk around and look at
Suck it, grandpa!
I'm pretty sure they did that with the latest huge picture of the Milky Way, but I can't find a link anywhere.
for the last time, she's a whore not a horse
really? they told me she was both!
Either that or keep me entertained while I fill out 150 screens worth of information to get a requisition number, which then can be used to fill out another 50 screens to get a PO number, which can then be put into the ordering system to request the part from the vendor. Then I can contact the vendor, because the lazy fuckers who do this for a living can't use phones apparently, order the item, and then wait to get ass raped on shipping charges. Someone kill me.

Finally, something I can use!
look, someone needs to keep you in check otherwise you might actually get some work done and then we wouldn't be able to keep you in your place
Whatever happened to the good old days where I picked the item out of an engineering catalog, told my secretary to order it on the company dime, slap her on the ass, and then go have a scotch.

My favorite has always been explaining to purchasing that yes, there is only one manufacturer of these bolts, DC motor, etc in the entire world and no, it's not ok for you to contact other people to see "if they can do it" because they're not certified you silly git.
haha that sounds like my mom
she's always convinced that she can save money by calling someone else and of course they usually say they can because salemen
and then she ends up with a job done poorly or an item that's not really what she wanted and I'm just like, I tried to tell you
That is not a valid reason. Apparently, items can't break in this reality and I must now roll a saving check on a pump. FML.
Wait...broken is acceptable, but I have to explain why. I'm thinking of going metaphysical like we're all slowly dieing or breaking in some way, entropy and all.

Oh yes, so this is where you get to write a whole page email to purchasing, cc'ing your program manager and sometimes even the regional manager with phrases like "end of life" and "amortization" and "future of our business" and "pleasing the customer with prompt and accurate deliverables"
I think I've finally condensed it into a sort of form letter, so all I have to do is change out names, part numbers and prices
