    Any Hockey Fans?

    I miss watching the Leafs battle in the playoffs. The last time I was able to watch them in the playoffs was 2004. I can't believe it's been 5 years. I didn't even know the playoffs started. I've completely forgotten about hockey ever since the Leafs started losing. Please Leafs, make the...

    Internet Browser?

    Thanks for info ISAWHIM. 3. Woopra - "Offers free and real-time web tracking services." We can group this script with in with GA. 4. Facebook - Do you know what this does exactly? I'm not sure how this one works. 5. Chuug - is I think "twitthis.js" for Twitter. That's a good example you...

    Internet Browser?

    Yikes! I thought it was just Google Analytics running. Going to have to research those other ones after I eat. I never imagined all those things would be going on for just this page. What in the Sam Hill is chuug.com :confused: lol

    Internet Browser?

    If you're talking about the "NoScript" extension for Firefox, it should block something like Google Analytics (GA) which is written in JavaScript. People use GA on their websites to collect information about the visitors, such as page hits on certain days, how long you stayed on the site, who...

    Internet Browser?

    *update* After researching, I found that when you install Google Chrome it assigns Chrome a unique ID to relate to the tracked data that is harvested. Pretty sneaky with their Google Analytics...I remember seeing Google Analytics in my Firefox loading bar in the past. I'm guessing this is from...

    Internet Browser?

    Oh no! Me pr0ns! :D But seriously I wasn't aware of that. Glad you brought that up though. I wish they would give us an option to opt-out of google tracking. There's Chromium which is open-source. Looks to be written in C++. Could comment out the code that tracks usage and sends the tracked...

    Internet Browser?

    I use Chrome now. I was Firefox loyal for years though and I still think it's a great browser. When I first tried Chrome out awhile back I found the speed in searching and bringing up webpages was the same, so I went back to my trusted Firefox 3.0. By that time I had gotten so used to...

    49% made in China & 51% made in Canada = Made in Canada Label

    I was digging around on Google and found an interesting article explaining how the things we consume, including medicines, can have a significant portion of the product originating from China. The product can be labeled as made in Canada or the U.S., fooling the consumer into believing the...

    E-smoking could be worse than real cigarettes

    I like your way of not coming off as preaching or forcing anything down anybody's throat. I also like how you share your truthful personal experience with non-vapers, instead of speculating. Not only can arguing about the health aspects of vaping be a lost cause, but also arguing with certain...

    Figurehead vs. Walrus

    Dammmn... Ok I had to vote for Figurehead. I haven't seen anybody do that before and I personally would never attempt that. I can somewhat relate though. The best I could manage was a 40 of Absolut in 6 hours. I was still in my late teens and probably weighed 125lbs at the time. I was hungover...

    What countries are banning/limiting?

    Well PVs and e-liquid should be legal too, once they figure out how to tax the hell outta both of them.

    E-smoking could be worse than real cigarettes

    Just for the record, I'm the OP. And I'm not against e-smoking in any way. The title of my thread may indicate that I'm condemning e-smoking, but I am actually totally for it. I simply just wanted to get the reactions and opinions of you good people to what people have been saying to me when I...

    analog delema

    I just dove right into vaping. Ever since I got my 901 I haven't looked back. I think stopped smoking analogs March 12th. Then bummed a few from a friend at work on March 17th. Didn't smoke on March 18th. Got 901 on March 19th. I think I quit analogs for a good 5 days. I think I could have made...

    E-smoking could be worse than real cigarettes

    Thanks for the information everyone. The e-cigarette interview with David Sweanor was interesting. I've been searching google for Propylene Glycol in cigarettes and you guys are right. leaford was pretty accurate, as PG is claimed to be used to keep cheap reconstituted tobacco from drying out...

    E-smoking could be worse than real cigarettes

    JustJulie I can see what you're saying. When I smoked analogs and somebody mentioned something about quitting I would kind of tune out of what they were saying. I simply did not want to quit, so I guess I didn't want to listen to anything that involved quitting. So I can see how people on the...

    E-smoking could be worse than real cigarettes

    Really? Propylene Glycol is already in analogs? If I would have known that one yesterday, I would have had a better chance in the debate/argument. Yes I do try to seem honest to people by telling them to quit smoking altogether and those problems will be gone. I'm not really trying to persuade...

    E-smoking could be worse than real cigarettes

    What's worse than cancer? Not much disease wise I'd say. But the counter attack to this one is, "Well what if e-smoking has a higher rate of giving cancer?". As for the atomiser argument. I think he was referring to the atomiser releasing small bits of whatever it happens to made of into our...

    E-smoking could be worse than real cigarettes

    Basically when I said analogs are proven to give cancer, he said e-cigarettes could be 10 times worse. And that's not the first time I've heard something like that in a face to face conversation with a smoker.

    E-smoking could be worse than real cigarettes

    I get the impression from a lot of anti-esmokers that I talk to, that they are expecting some sort of major flaw with e-cigarettes. That there is some of sort doomsday element hidden in e-smoking that is going to send all of us guinea pigs to an early grave.

    E-smoking could be worse than real cigarettes

    This is one of the first things people (mostly smokers) say to me when they see my 901 or I bring up the subject of e-smoking. These days I'm getting kinda peed off, because of the "I told you so" attitude I'm getting from people when I mention how e-smoking is being cracked down on in Canada...
