Gee, they’re actually going to do some real science on nutrition, and not just accept the foolish folk-wisdom thermodynamics theory. What a concept.

ObamaCare And Small Business
OK, now those racists are saying that it’s forcing them to cut workers’ hours.
Harry Reid
Just how devious is he?
I’d go with the “arrogant and honest” theory myself. That would seem to be what’s happening here.
Caffeine Addiction
I started drinking coffee a few weeks ago, primarily for medicinal purposes (a couple cups in the morning). I don’t really enjoy it, and I’ve never noticed any mental effect from doing so. If I didn’t make a pot for her every morning, I probably wouldn’t bother. When I skip a day, I don’t notice anything, either. So maybe I’m sort of impervious to its effects. Of course, that could also mean that I’m not getting any of the hoped-for health benefits of drinking it.
Kickstarter
Is it anti-science?
I think it needs more competition than just Indiegogo.
The Mandate From Hell
Kevin thinks it will be easy, but I don’t see it. Do we get rid of the employer mandate, which will be super expensive? Do we raise the limit to 35 hours a week, which would probably result in somewhat less dumping, but would still cost a bunch of money? And which program would Democrats like to cut to pay for the extra expense? Because Republicans would definitely not be on board with raising taxes for it.
This isn’t just politically hard; it’s actually hard.
One of the many reasons the legislation is such a disaster.
It’s like squaring the circle. Of solving a Rubiks cube that’s been taken apart and put together the wrong way.
Cryonics
“…is critical-care medicine taken to the next step.”
Standing Orders
I really should get or make a standing desk.
[Update a few minutes later]
On the other hand, while I can walk for a long time, my back hurts if I stand for very long. So I’d really have to get a treadmill.
Heart Surgery
Try to avoid it. It hurts.
Good advice.
The Failure Of ObamaCare
No, despite the illogic of the Democrats, it’s not the Republicans’ fault. There is no responsibility on their part to attempt to implement an atrocious law that they rightly opposed, or to stop trying to repeal it when it’s clearly going to be so damaging to the nation’s economy and our personal health and freedom.
