My father and all of his siblings had heart disease. His three children--me included--also had heart disease. Mackey is apparently too ignorant or too stupid to know that things like this happen. Not that he is in the minority. For my whole life, whenever I tell somebody I have heart disease, they start telling me about diet and exercise. Duh! Three years ago, after completing my usual morning run of about five miles, I sat down and promptly went into cardiac arrest. No warnings at all. Fortunately, I survived, but I'll be in danger my whole life. To believe that if you have the right diet and exercise habits, all of your health problems will be solved is dangerous ignorance. I don't care how many successful companies you start, if you promote ignorance, you're a moron. Period.
I was part of a 25% layoff in a company where most workers were remote. Many of us suspected ageism. The company refused to provide the list when I requested it, because I was the only person laid off in my state. This was a software company owned by an equity fund with a whole army of oily lawyers.
I still can't figure out the problem a Keurig machine is supposed to solve, but it damned sure creates one. You can buy pre-ground coffee, throw it into your French press and have good coffee in minutes without creating mountains of trash. And it will be great tasting coffee too. I see two problems: laziness and the appeal of brand new "gee whiz" technology that looks slicker and costs more without offering any real benefit. And it makes crappier coffee too.
or we'll shoot you!
I'm 62. It doesn't work for me to stand all day. I start to have fatigue from standing. So, I mix it up and that works very well for me. I also run five to six days a week. So, I feel like I'm doing the best I can do to avid being too sedentary.
I find it hard to believe that these guys escaped and then disappeared without a trace forever. Why didn't we ever hear anything from them after the escape?
This topic was being hotly debated when I entered graduate school about thirty years ago. I was at Ohio State and they were concerned that English Department resources were being redirected to teach remedial English to freshmen, who couldn't be turned down if they were from Ohio.
I bake bread on a regular basis. Unless you add lots of other food ingredients like egg or other perishable stuff, it will go dry long before it becomes moldy. So, this "discovery" doesn't solve a real problem.
Seriously. Once a medium is past, you can't pump it up again.
Fort Knox had Goldfinger. Who is Quebec's Stickyfinger?
You need to be clear on what he was charged with. The agency is saying he got transfusions of oxygen-doped blood before races. Since oxygen is not a "drug" there isn't a specific test that can say whether it's present in abnormally high levels. The ADA will tell you this frankly. But if that's what Armstrong did, it was real genius. Oxygen-enriched blood will supercharge any athlete. And oxygen is not a foreign substance.
Science may someday discover what faith has always known.
