House Republicans’ cuts to the Department of Education, which will spend over $70 billion next year, didn’t even amount to $1 billion. “Regardless of whether Pakistan gets its way, its impudence in pushing Afghanistan to abandon America exposes the real balance of power in the region.” “It doesn’t make a lot of sense to refer to a government whose intelligence service assists military efforts by al Qaeda and the Taliban against U.S. troops in Afghanistan as an ‘ally.’” Here are five ways to cut military spending today without changing our strategic focus: Monday Links is a post f...

Or, at least, that should be the case. Eisenhower – the West Point graduate, career military officer, and hero of World War II – was one of the first to ever use the phrase, in a televised Farewell Address to the nation on January 17, 1961. Over the years, however, the MIC has become a mantra for progressives and left liberals, usually used in tandem with an assault on private enterprise, writ large, or as part of an elaborate conspiracy theory that equates crony capitalism with market economics. The left’s capture of the term has ena...

(It doesn’t. It’s a made-up B&B on a pretend beet farm outside Honesdale, Pennsylvania owned by Dwight Schrute and his cousin Mose, who are characters on NBC’s “The Office.”) From yesterday’s New York Times: “Not everyone gets the joke. Recently, TripAdvisor added a caveat explaining that Schrute Farms was fictional, Ms. Petersen said. “We had a complaint from someone who had wanted to go there.”   – Christine Petersen, Chief Marketing Officer for TripAdvisor via The New York Times Post from: BlissTree You Know You're Unwell If...

Except at my brother’s old place from where he built me my first PC. And then after that when I met my husband, who is a proud one himself. But out in the wild? It is with a happy note then that I share with you a Houston that has such a dynamic within. Having lived here for not very long, it is wonderful to have these venues to meet with one’s ‘kin’. Meeting folks who will match my very own, “@timeless” with their “@outofbalance” or “@superman” unleashes a smiling butterfly that says, “yowzah!”. The gatherings come in many wonderful names and behind them smiling headshots coming to life as you meet them. “@imelda’s” Twitter Houston and “@laanba’s” Housto... the story of healing blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=1216519 Fri, 08 Feb 2008 07:00:57 +0100 1216519 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=674823&cid=t_424562_117_f&fid=34612&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.thedoctorweighsin.com%2Fjournal%2F2007%2F6%2F12%2Fmore-on-the-stem-cell-act-and-bushs-promised-veto-take-actio.html As I wrote earlier, President Bush has vowed to veto the bipartisan Stem Cell Research Enhancement Act, SB5, when he returns from his European trip. This bill offers hope of a cure or, at the very least, more effective treatments for many chronic illnesses, including Types 1 and 2 diabetes, Parkinsons, Alzheimers and many others.In an eloquent Op-Ed in the San Francisco Chronicle, Dwight Holing, a member of the national Board of the American Diabetes Association, explains why this bill is so important. (I have had the pleasure of serving as President of the SF Bay Area's ADA Leadership council with Dwight serving, until recently, as Chairman.  When Dwight speaks on the subject of diabetes, we all should listen.)Here are some excerpts from his opinion piece [with my comm...
