Sugar High (or is that low?)
I remember way back when… the saccharine study was all the rage. Right before it was basically outlawed. One of the statements made was that if sugar were not a natural substance and subject to the same testing as saccharine, it would have been eradicated from the market. Because the same dose of sugar in pop was far more harmful to humans than saccharine.

Murray of Peter Bent Brigham (now Brigham and Women’s Hospital), who won the Nobel Prize in 1990 for developing the first living transplant, sharing the honor with Dr. E. Donnal Thomas, who pioneered bone marrow transplants (who died just one month earlier).

Take the time…
I don’t know why we think some of things we do. I know I am aging and that the rest of mylife is going to be shorter than the past of my life. But, when someone I know dies (I do hate the politically correct term “passes”), it strikes me- sometimes hard. Those feelings also get amplified at various times of the year. Right now, I am over-stressed with the tax season, client concerns for new products and processes to take advantage of the change in the marketplace, clients’ divorces (financial and business considerations), and one of the biggest holidays of my year (not necessarily in religious fervor, but in the preparations thereto… it’s where the concept of Spring cleaning arose- but that is chicken feed, when compared to the regulations and stipulations of this holiday). The good news is that my children and grandson, my ersatz family (I chose my own relatives ◊ ), and friends will all be joining the Seder. But, I digress.

Remember those “death panels”?
There was a great deal of controversy two years ago about the supposed imposition of “death panels” in Obama’s health care plan. Yet, there seems to be no controversy whatsoever about the “death panels” that are implicit in the more than 10 states’ plans to slash Medicaid funding in their states. Dealing with (real and purported) budget shortfalls, these states are slashing their budgets for Medicaid. The end result is that indigent and lower middle class patients will simply be told that there is no money for their care or for care for their children.
