Dr. Greene s Guide to Holiday Toy Selection
Here is my guide to toy selection. I hope it helps you with your shopping.
Categories of Healthy Toys
Before making your toy selection, let’s discuss healthy categories of toys. Especially in this digital age, it is important to remember the value of play without the use of media or devices. In 2019, the journal Pediatrics published a report on how to select appropriate and safe toys in this digital era. The report discussed the concern that electronic toys were replacing more traditional childrens toys. Although we know there is a place for healthy use of electronics, in this guide we will focus on...

Doubling of the Oil Price Is Always “Transitory”
Alan ReynoldsThis graph compares the year ‐to‐year percentage change in headline inflation (the blue line) with the monthly percentage change in the consumer price index (CPI) excluding energy (the red bars). Because the blue line has exceeded 5% since June and exceeded 6% in October, many are understandably convinced that inflati on was lower in the spring and has accelerated since then. As I recently demonstrated, however, large year‐to‐year percentage changes in the overall CPI have always been dominated byhuge changes (both up and down) in the world price of crude oil. One way to partly correct ...

David Bradley … also a musician
I’m a science journalist by day, a photographer, dog walker and ale drinker most of the time I’m away from my desk, and a musician by night…oh, and there’s usually an ale or a beer then, too…
That is to say, I earn my living writing about science, I tramp around the countryside with my dog, taking lots of photos (mostly of birds, these days), drink a few pints with Mrs Sciencebase and/or friends, and sing and play in a couple of bands, including C5, and a choir (bigMouth). You can hear my latest solo and collaborative recorded music on BandCamp and SoundCloud. Some of my stuff is on Spotify an...

The Perennial Year ‐to‐Year Oil Price Confusion
Alan Reynolds“U.S. Inflation Hit 31‐Year High in October as Consumer Prices Jump 6.2%” That should make you wonder: What happened in 1990 to make that October ’s year‐to‐year CPI inflation rate of 6.4% so much like October 2021’s 6.2%?The first graph compares the 1990 –91 year‐to‐year percentage change in the oil price (79.3% in October) to the tightly linked year‐to‐year percentage change in the CPI. The price of West Texas crude oil rose from $16.70 a barrel in June to $36.04 in October and the year‐to‐year CPI marched up in l ock step to 6.4%. Then the year‐...

Crazy, yes, but exactly how?
Jonathan Karl thinks TFG is delusional, and Tom Sullivan agrees. However, I think that gives him too much credit, in one respect, and not enough in another. The too much credit part is that it lets him off the hook for moral depravity. The not enough is that it doesn ' t recognize the method in the madness.Clinical psychologist Alan Blotcky agrees: Trump is not detached from reality at all. He knows exactly what he is doing. He knows the difference between truth and a lie — he just doesn ' t care about that, if a lie gets him what he wants. He is devious, conniving and hell-bent on satisfying his needs, wants&n...

Has Recent Inflation Been Higher or Lower?
Alan ReynoldsA front ‐page headline screams “Inflation Is Back at Highest in Over a Decade.” That sounds as if inflation recently came back up to a record peak after a nice period of quiescence. Actually, inflation was twice as high from March to June as it has been since.The lower numbers of the past three months are still bad enough, yet the difference between higher and lower numbers seems worth mentioning. Change seems to mystify and elude TV and newspaper reporters because they discount recent news and keep extolling “The Mystifying Arithmetic of Year ‐to‐Year Inflation Estimates. ”Earlier th...

Capital Gains Taxes and the Democrats
Chris EdwardsPresident Biden and congressional Democrats are pushing to raise capital gains taxes. The Democratic proposals are radical and out of step with the treatment of capital gains in other high ‐income nations. I arguehere,here, andhere that higher capital gains taxes would damage America ’s technology industries and entrepreneurial economy.Let ’s look at capital gains tax rates in the high‐income OECD nations. In the chart below, the red bar in the middle is the current U.S. top rate of 29.2 percent, which is much higher than the OECD average of 19.1 percent. These rates, compiled by theTax Foundati...

Blaming U.S. Passenger Vehicles for Climate Change Is Ignorant but Lucrative
Alan ReynoldsA CNN report says, “Making American cars greener is a key component of Biden’s economic and climate agendas… But the transition will be difficult;passenger vehicles contribute 29% of total US greenhouse gas emissions, and EVs and plug ‐in hybrids combined only account for around 2% of the US auto sales, according to a UAW analysis.”Similar claims – that “passenger vehicles contribute 29% of total U.S. greenhouse gas emissions” – have been echoed repeatedly for a decade but are totally false. Theentire transportation sector accounts for 29% of U.S. greenhouse gases, according to the Ener...

Free Universal School Meals: A Crucial Public Health and Social Justice Move for California and the Nation
Expanding Universal School Meals for All is a massive win for public health and social justice. California is now the first state to provide free breakfast and lunch to all public school students for the next two years.

As a pediatrician and a school district food service director, we know that nutritious school food is one of the most powerful levers to safeguard children’s health. Why? Kids can often get 50-1...

Sorry, I ’m fed up. It’s not professional, but I am.
“It’s experimental.” “It alters your DNA.” “It may cause long-term problems.” “It’s too new, too rushed. I want more time.” I hear this nonsense from patients all day. None are docs, virologists, microbiologists, immunologists, public health officials, medical researchers, nor in tensive care docs.
