Man, I haven't thought about Black and White in a long time. I wonder if I still have the disc floating around somewhere...

Which recliner did you go with? I've been shopping for one for a while and haven't had any luck finding one I like...

What's the issue with Nord? A buddy just recommended it to me, but I rarely see it mentioned, so I've had a hard time understanding why not to use it.

Ergonomics/workplace safety officer here; you're quite correct. The idea that sitting is the new smoking ignored the detail in the epidemiology: Inactivity is the real problem.

Yes it is, and that's the problem. I work my butt off to identify mechanisms to reduce musculoskeletal injury risk, and then to maintain my employment, I have to hand the rights to that work to a private organization that profits over it. To make matters worse, I then do the work to ensure the quality of other publications for the journal through the peer review process and am not compensated for it.

Sign up for the trial and see. I was really worried that I'd blast through the base sunscription's number of monthly searches, so I started counting the number of DDG searches I did a month. It was barely within Kagi's, so I signed up. The awesome thing is that their results are better to the point that I use fewer queries now.

This might be the best citation I have ever read! Take my upvote!

I actually teach my students about this strategy that the WHO employee in Micronesia in my sport nutrition class. It's less about the iron fish, and more about that dietary iron can come from cast iron cooking sources instead of supplementation (as the latter often causes digestive distress).

Sorry, perhaps this is a disciplinary difference. In engineering, physics, and biomechanics (my doctoral specialization), and from a unit standard perspective, the pound representing both mass and weight is a false equivalency born out of convenience. This is why the Imperial standard for mass is the slug, allowing for gravitational acceleration of a mass to equate to a force.

Kilograms are mass, but pounds are weight. Therefore 0 kg = 0 slug, or 0 N = 0 lbs

Secular homeschool graduate here. Parents homeschooled my brother and I because the public school system was drastically underfunded and we were in quite an education desert. I always hate articles like this, as folks tend to paint broad strokes about homeschoolers... But there's a reason we never had other homeschooled friends growing up; there were a lot of crazy ones, especially in Michigan, as there is virtually no regulation.
