This is something I did for my own reasons, but I’m talking about it on a mailing list, and posting a table in there is *not* convenient.
Mostly, I was interested in polyunsaturated and saturated fats in various foods, but it’s always interesting to be reminded about some other facts. We’re always hearing about how, [...]
Towards? Children? We’re all doing it!
“This raises the question of whether the physiological basis for eating is becoming deregulated, as our children are moving toward constant eating.”
This is one of those news bits for the day. I heard it on KMOX while I was still in bed – I’m sure it will be [...]
While poking around on the web for info about The Leptin Diet , I saw a lot of people (incidentally, all were women) saying that it was too hard or totally unrealistic to not eat for five or six hours or to let 11 to 12 hours pass between dinner and breakfast. … If you really can’t go that long without eating, you either aren’t eating enough at meals, or your meal choices simply don’t have enough [...]

I use Limewire on occasion, mostly to download things I’m nominally interested in buying or to obtain something that would be on a greatest hits of the [insert decade here] compilation. A few common errors have appeared.
The song “The Boys Are Back in Town” is not a Bad Company song. It [...]
…but this is the funniest thing I’ve seen this week:
This publication obtained audiotapes of two meetings conducted by recently departed ad sales EVP Lisa Brown. In them, she repeatedly launches into obscenity-laced tirades, personally insults senior executives in her group, and at one point, pounds her shoe on the table, Khrushchev-style, when a creative director [...]
On Tuesday, Don Henley, yes that Don Henley, wrote an opinion piece for the Washington Post called Killing the Music. While he’s certainly right that the music business is in trouble, I don’t think he truly understands why. I suppose he could be forgiven for getting it wrong. The music business certainly gets [...]
