The 11 Best Foods You Aren’t Eating

2008-07-01T12:53:49Z

Read an interesting article in the NY Times this morning. Since I eat pretty healthy and am not freaked out often by weird food, I figured I was already eating half of their suggestions. Turns out my smug attitude was way off base. Here are t...

Interesting Op-Ed

2008-06-25T17:19:26Z

Big fan of this Op-Ed I just read in, you guessed it, the NY Times. I definitely agree that tax credits are a way to create incentives for renewables so the market can become more mature and cost-competitive.... don't even get me started on the...

Work Interrupted...

2008-06-23T14:39:27Z

As I sat here, reading the NYTimes and blogging, instead of working, I stumbled on this interesting article about how often we get interupted during work tasks and how long it takes to return to the task at hand.... The average knowledge worker ...

I love the NYTimes

2008-03-30T15:17:57Z

It's Sunday - when we are home, that means, reading the NYTimes, a tasty egg breakfast, and Adam watching Meet the Press (which he is doing now) while I flee to another room in the house.... In the paper today was an article about this blooger w...

Wall Street Gets the Last Laugh

2008-03-10T18:35:55Z

Elliot Spitzer played a large role in making Wall Street folks lives hell..... When he was Attorney General of NY, he launched a very public attack on investment banks. (Trying not to get into too many details). As a result, we have an insane a...

Politics getting interesting -- even to me

2008-01-09T20:55:52Z

Interesting Op-Ed in the NYTimes today by Gloria Steinem. I've found it interesting reading today - everyone hypothesizing Hillary's NH win over Obama. This is one of her most interesting excerpts: So why is the sex barrier not taken as serio...

Good Luck Chuck - No Thank You.

2007-09-21T14:04:48Z

I am an avid NY Times reader and enjoy starting my morning each day with some perusing. The following is part of a movie review for Good Luck Chuck, that was too funny not to share.... doesn't look like this movie is even worth Netflix-ing. Bu...

Feminism and Tennis - A great COMBO

2007-09-20T19:45:36Z

I get a NYTimes email link each day and at the bottom it has "On This Day" which cites something newsworthy that had happened on this date. Here's today's: On Sept. 20, 1973, Billie Jean King defeated Bobby Riggs in straight sets 6-4, 6-3, 6-3...

More US OPEN Thoughts.....

2007-09-05T13:29:31Z

Last night, Henin defeated Serena in the Quarterfinals. This is the third time that these two have met in a Quarterfinal this year, and Henin has won each time.... Henin was serving horribly and Adam and I resorted to yelling at the television ...

US Open Getting Close...

2007-08-23T14:13:53Z

There's an article in the NY Times today about the draw. I must say that I'm a little bummed to see the Women's side so top-bracket-heavy. First, it makes the matches in the bottom half less interesting, but also, it gives Sharapova (and her in...
