San Francisco 49ers Colin Kaepernick Is Just A Lousy Employee
Both the left and right have it wrong. I’ll explain both. The left is easiest, so let’s start there. They’re suckers for anything and all things that have any shade of besmirching the inventors and creators of all and everything you are: the white male of the human species. There’s no contest and apparently, even…
Read MoreHow SaneBox Saved Me From 20 Years Of Email Insantity
It was about 20 years ago—1996—that I really began to use email more widely, taking it from more of a novelty thing to what became a mainstay means of communication, both in business and personally. It really didn’t take long for it to consume enormous swaths of every day. It’s a double-edge sword kind of…

At LewRochwell.com: There is one decisive reason for conservatives and libertarians to vote for Trump, but it has more to do with the Trump candidacy, or what Ilana Mercer calls “the Trump process,” than Trump the person. For decades, there has been a virtual consensus across the political spectrum that “Washington,” or “the System,” is…
Read MoreAHS16 – Stephan Guyenet – Calorie Intake – A Cornerstone of Ancestral Health
This is an excellent talk by Dr. Stephen Guyenet at this year’s Ancestral Health Symposium held recently in Boulder, CO. It’s all about how caloric intake trumps all other things we believe are important factors for health. Even in the first five minutes of the talk, he shows how calorie intake even trumps junk food…
Read MoreYou Probably Ought Be Done With Nora Gedgaudas and Lisa
A comment on a Facebook post: #AHS16 was rather fantastic, overall – or at least an obvious improvement from the low carb BS peddling that it was early on. Stephans presentation has to be one of my favorite this year. But the question is: Have you, by any chance, had a “clash” with this years…

Gloves off. Here’s the new Europe, homeland of my father.
Read MoreRoundup: Obamacare Death, Trump, Journalism, and Tax My Kids
Morning readings today. ~ Obamacare has gone from the president’s greatest achievement to a ‘slow-motion death spiral’ (Bob Bryan, Business Insider) My oh my.

And those of us in possession of such competencies said it…

On this episode, you’ll learn: A simple way to eat well on $10 a week Why adding vitamins to wheat might actually make it more fattening Why all carbs are not created equal A…
Read MoreBraised Beef Short Ribs
I think there may perhaps be no finer, tastier, more succulent food than a nicely done braised beef short rib with the proper straining and reduction of the braising stock to a thick consistency. So let’s get started. For a review of the various ways and cuts I’ve done in the past, see here, here,…
Read MorePork Chops and Fruit, Home Chef Version
Well, for now, I think I’m a bit burnt out on the politics (to those who’ve been following the last couple weeks of posts). I’ll look for more opportunities to poke fun of the ridiculous in the lead up to the election to come. I thought I’d do an old-fasioned food post for once, and…
