Things got off to a good start late last week, but donations slowed down over the weekend. I’m a little less than a third of the way, at $2160, with a three and a half weeks to go. That’s plenty of time, but I fear that I’ve already plucked all the low-hanging fruit, so spread the word, please.
I’m flying to DC tomorrow to go to the Global Exploration and International space Development conferences, so I may try to get face time with potential larger donors for matching donations. It also might help if folks would comment over there to entice new donors who come across it.
What our “self-esteem” movement and the public schools have wrought. It’s been over thirty years since that commission on education issued the report that said that if a foreign power had imposed this educational system on us, we would rightly consider it an act of war. It’s true today more than ever.
Interesting, and slightly dismaying. If true, the HDL/LDL ratio isn’t really important; all that really matters is the absolute LDL level. Still, a high ratio and reduction of total would reduce LDL. But the most important takeaway from a dietary standpoint is that you are not what you eat — there is little correlation between cholesterol intake and serum cholesterol. A failure to understand this over the decades has resulted in a lot of terrible dietary advice, including the kind that probably killed my father in the seventies.
I’m also referring to the barbarians in public office there (and DC, and New York) who defy Constitution and the Supreme Court, and the age-old right of the law-abiding to arm and defend themselves, because they willfully enable the barbarism.
So here’s my question. How does this differ from the usual Marxist/anarchist violent asininity that generally accompanies G-whatevernumber or NATO summits? It’s the same moronic thugs, and nothing new. Well, except for the fact that Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and top Democrats endorsed them.
