You can read it here. Now I have a problem. Last week, before Blisstree even published my post, after five years of marriage, and without even having had the slightest idea that I was writing about wedding rings, or marriage, or us, my husband did something terrible: He gave me a ring. I’m not kidding. Apparently, he had enlisted a jewelry designer friend of his to make the ring, and they had been covertly in cahoots for months. It was supposed to arrive in time for Valentine’s Day (okay, who are you and what have you done with my husband?), but was delayed by a few weeks. As my husband presented this strange, round, smooth, silvery object to me, he said th...

Don’t. They’re sisters (one’s got the voice, the other guitar skills); they’re from Seattle; they’ve sold 30 million records; and they kick some serious ass.

They go from Somerville to Cambridge's Oktoberfest, a street festival with no particular political approach. Our apartment, near Mass Ave, is equidistant between the two points, and therefore ideally suited to notice the arrival of the Honk! parade. What the Honk! festival lacks in polish--one band's website earnestly stated that it did not discriminate on the basis of musical ability, bless their hearts--it makes up for in enthusiasm and anarchic charm. As someone who grew up on the left, I was always viscerally bothered when people decided to go to protests and behave like a bunch... hemodynamics blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=2883026 Mon, 12 Oct 2009 03:43:00 +0100 2883026 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=2691710&cid=t_117048_132_f&fid=35024&url=http%3A%2F%2Ffeedproxy.google.com%2F%7Er%2FBlindscientist%2F%7E3%2Fvj5BIAQ6hN8%2F I don’t like Facebook, the same way I don’t like Orkut. The only reason for me to use Facebook is contact people I don’t see in years, and that facet of it I appreciate. On the other hand I really liked FriendFeed, which is (was) a great service, but didn’t have a commercialization plan, hence it was sold. Anyway, the best analogy I can make of this purchase is: It’s like when that indie, miniscule band that you love and cherish goes mainstream. In a matter of seconds, the whole world knows that band and you don’t like it anymore, because you “discovered” it, because they were “connected” only to you, not the whole world. Now, FriendFeed is Facebook, and Facebook is mainstream, and we scientists need to stay indie, or at least ke...

This single experience gave me a clear understanding of the importance of helping older clients with not only the physical aspects of a later-life move, but also the psychological preparation for this transition, and what makes the downsizing process the hardest part of any move.Mrs. Jones was quite feisty and a true believer of the school of “waste not, want not.” In addition to several mayonnaise jars full of buttons and every size screw known to man, she had a kitchen drawer full of at least 72,000 red rubber bands. It was an amazing amount of rubber bands in general, but that they were specifically red was astoun...

Do you can often end up sitting on planes for hours at a time, suffer jet lag, and resort to comfort and junk food to survive long flights? Then you could probably do with a Fit Traveler kit from The Fitness Boutique. It’s a fully-illustrated and practical workbook complete with free exercise band that lets you turn your hotel room into a personal gym. And it’s so easy to store away in the suitcase – it even has a pocket within the book’s binding to store the exercise band. There’s also The Fit Traveler: Senior Edition aimed at the growing number of baby boomers out and about on the road. Both editions provide instructions on how to get a decent full-body workout - including upper body and lower body. Diet tips are also...

If you loathe leaving the house to workout, why not bring the gym to the house? Do-it-yourself gyms are easy to put together, and they can be inexpensive too. The first step is determining what kind of workouts you like doing, and once you've established that, you can decide whether you really need a gym membership. For some, getting your heart in good shape can be achieved in the comfort of your own home with a DIY gym. DIY gyms can be expensive, but they don't have to be. A few weights, some resistance bands, a exercise ball and a few fitness DVDs will do wonders for your heart and your health if you can stick to your exercise program.
