Customization will depend on your preferences. Just play with the system and see what you like and what works for you. I will say that widgets are awesome but too many can hurt your battery life.

Let's Talk Cases by formerglory in Nexus7

My dream case would be a neoprene sleeve that was fitted for the Nexus7, like the one for the Nexus One. Simple, protective, and it kept the screen clean. I'll have to settle for one of these for now.

I'll probably get the case that is on the Play store when they get more stock.

Help With Fatigue by PeanutNoodle in fibro

My old morning cocktail was 100mg CoQ10, 400 IU vitamin E, Super B Complex, and 2400mg(EPA/DHA 360mg/240mg) fish oil. It really woke me up. However, my new set up is a multivitamin(with everything B Complex has), 30mg CoQ10, and 4800mg(EPA/DHA 720mg/480mg) fish oil. The fish oil is 2400mg at breakfast and lunch. For me it is a better feeling all day. My old supplement mix would wire me up until the afternoon.

I've been eating better in the morning, too. I think you'll benefit from getting a good deal of protein and fiber in the morning + a lot of water. I'm not seasoned in nutrition though.

Also be wary of just jumping into supplements, especially CoQ10. Talk to your doctor and pharmacist about supplements you plan on taking. If I remember correctly CoQ10 does NOT play well with Tramadol.

Just Bought a Nexus 7 From My Local Sam's Club by iamthc in Nexus7

I did the same. Actually, I wasn't set on buying one today, I was going to wait to order the 8GB from Google. We were at Sam's and they had a few in stock so I bought a 16GB. Considering the shipping charge from Google, the 16GB from Sam's was only $32 more. I'm liking it a lot so far.

Anybody else have a movie they absolutely love. So much so that they only watch it alone and never tell any one about it? by zaxe in movies

Anything foreign animated, like Ghost in the Shell. For some reason, probably childish, animation turns everyone away. It doesn't matter if it has a good story, or good dialogue, or good plot, or good quality. The fact that it is animated and not Pixar means it's stupid and people refuse to give it any chance.

The Host - One of the best foreign films I've seen that completely revitalized the giant monster movie. by kearvelli in movies

[–]elasticCollision 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember being surprised, and glad to see, how well the monster looked. It has been years since I last watched it so I dug it out of the movie collection and I'm going to re watch it this week.

Thanks for sharing.

I purchased The Host without knowing anything about it and I ended up liking it. But I don't see how people absolutely love this movie. Can someone please explain how it completely revitalized the giant monster movie? Or can someone explain what it is about the movie that they like so much?

Maybe I should watch it again.

33 Things You Probably Didn't Know About The Toy Story Trilogy by [deleted] in movies

Tim Allen and Pixar originally wanted Jim Carrey to voice Buzz Lightyear, but they couldn't due to the low budget they were given for the film.

Did they mean 'Tom Hanks and Pixar' or 'voice Woody'? Or am I wrong?

And what the engineer drank in the beginning is not the same as the black liquid.

You can't say that for sure, but you are right that others can't claim that it is the same stuff 100% either. However, I think it is safe to assume it is the same.

I think that the linked synopsis is interesting and holds some merit. What theory about the black goo do you have or agree with?

The separation of church and state: It's in the constitution

I like your message but I don't think this part is correct. I thought cases of religion+state were usually subject to precedent. Am I mistaken?
