Then it Must be True

In my ignorance, I thought this practice had been ditched somewhere around the time when the phlogiston theory of combustion went out of favour, but the students put me right.

Asthma, David Beckham and me

The football star was photographed using an inhaler this weekend. Who knew we had anything in common? Me and David Beckham: who'd have thought it? It turns out we have a lifelong affinity. That small plastic object in the pocket, wherever you go. You could reach for it instantly, though you might not for weeks. You tell a few close friends where you keep it, in case of a sudden attack. But hardly...

"Hair Implants"

A few days ago Emily Browne at NHDP probed the dark underbelly of the GOPer idea of health care "reform," and made a pretty powerful and salient point (in part, from an email release): Ayotte is pushing a GOP establishment health care plan that would do away with essential state-level consumer protections that hold insurance companies accountable to New Hampshire residents.
