I like how the scientist worries about industry influence and not his own bias. At the local demonstration public garden, which is all about science, they have swathes currently planted with “cover crops” and discuss crop rotation. This seems like a cousin to their practice.

I believe Bangladesh did a push for nasal sprays during COVID and had great outcomes for the populations prior to getting the vaccines.

Some of the best Cosby moments involved his character. He said one that his mother would take her with him when she met with the financial advisors handling his paychecks. He hated it as a teenager, but learned the business side of things and how to handle money.

The French did a version of this with horse manure and cold frames in the 19th century. Some sources say they started doing this as early as the 16th century.

Years ago a pharmacist told be that the most abused OTC was Preparation H because so many people used it so often for reducing redness and puffiness in the face.

These are creative people. They can find a way.

My art business is supported by my day job. Not only do I take funds from my salary to invest, some of my best customers have been my coworkers. Part of it is that the love knowing the artist personally. That was unexpected, but it totally works.

There is that, however, Senator Paul is also worried about the mistrust of health-related institutions. Before Covid someone close to me was wary of the medical establishment. COVID radicalized them into be so anti-doctor they died of an illness, mid 50’s, that could have probably been prevented and definitely mitigated if they had gone to the doctor.

I think we will see all sorts of damage due to this mistrust.

I make them and keep them. In fact, I am continuing last year’s as it became a habit that has really helped my overall health. My favorite was the year a friend and I committed to getting together once a month instead of “whenever.” There were a couple of tough months, but we did it.

This year, I resolve to eat in my kitchen or dining room and read the daily mass readings when I am at home instead of on the couch in front of the TV.

The other part of this is that at some point I will fail. I did a couple of times with last year’s. Missing one night isn’t an excuse to give up.

Interesting that they can release this, but are so behind on their Form 990’s that the charity can’t be rated at Charity Watch or Charity Navigator.

Some of the wasteful positions will go away with rollbacks on some of the dumber federal regulations. Whole positions are created to make sure colleges are compliant with DOE regulations. That doesn’t even cover some of the software used to document compliance, which is also a huge cost. There is a whole thing going on about degrees that lead to licensure in a profession and if someone gets the degree from one state it may not qualify for them to be licensed in a different state. Because some people can’t figure that out on their own. Or something.
The administrative time this one takes is astonishing.

Read this. Great article.

In the montages of people upset about the election, there was a man that tore his shirt off in anger that Harris lost. The overacting was so bad I thought he might be a conservative plant.

He got the views for the dollars, that’s for sure.

She tapped perhaps the world’s most genuine sports dad to be her running mate.

Don’t forget “only a few” apartment complexes.

Plan to be at the polls at 6am on Tuesday for Trump

Twitch has a view count. The good gamers get sponsors, etc similar to other media platforms because so many people are actively watching. I’d like to know the view count for this.

In all seriousness, I think this goes to the lack of spirituality and oneness of nature in this country. There is a lack of a presence that helps us understand there is a time for everything. People want to elongate the use of material goods, not necessarily focus on the birth of our Lord, the souls of the departed or time to have true gratitude for what we have.

I took some to a Labor Day barbecue as a joke. I couldn’t believe it was in the store already.

Isn’t she part of the current administration? Why wait until January? She COULD have been working on this for the past 3 1/2 years.
