The little robot, a trashcan on wheels, rolled down the street in the late hours of the night. When it found a piece of trash, it squatted over it and sucked it up — reverse-defecation, Patricia’s dad called it. Adrian watched it from across the street, a slight smile on his face. Patricia didn’t like Adrian in general, but she especially didn’t like him when he smiled; it made him look mean and angry, or at least meaner and angrier than usual. But Jason liked Adrian, and Patricia liked Jason,

Last week, Stacey Rhymes from Derby, who died from alcoholic liver disease at 24, appealed from the grave for steps to stop enticing vulnerable young people into addiction, when her mother released harrowing photographs of her daughter’s decline. Hers is the human face of a huge statistical problem – research published yesterday foresees more than 90,000 lives lost to alcohol over the next decade. As a practising gastroenterologist, I regularly see patients whose lives have been wrecked by alcoh

Bill MuehlenbergWe have plenty of examples of green Chicken Little’s insisting that the sky is falling. The trouble is, when we listen to them, heed their advice, and implement their policies, the solutions are usually much worse than the perceived problems. One classic example of this was the worldwide scare over DDT.This story is of course quite well known. Indeed, I have written it up in earlier posts as well. So let me here simply repeat what I have said elsewhere:When DDT was patented as an

Or should that be sick poppy? George Bush (#43, not to be confused with the gibbering idiot with misplaced delusions of grandeur that he sired), speaking at Texas A&M last week to celebrate the anniversary of his laughably weak “thousand points of light” initiative, took the opportunity (when not apologizing for his “ ass e-mail ” promoting the event), to lash out at the reckless incivility of left-wing pundits like Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow. Which, naturally prompted the following

That means future centenarians born today could have a “physical” age of 50 at a calendar ag

It has been a jam-packed couple of weeks for the Cream Puff. Work has been incredibly busy and there’s been lots going on with family and friends between the Thanksgiving holiday and other events. This is going to be a quick Magazine Mondays post but I definitely wanted to take the time to share with you a pasta dish that I made quite some time ago. I’d actually forgotten about these little beauties until recently, when I read a beautiful book that I’m looking forward to talking about very s

In Florida, local eggs, unpasteurized local milk, and cheese made from that milk are all verboten for human consumption. Thankfully, the state has much higher regard for its animal companions than it does for its citizens, which means the legal sale of that healthy, nutritious contraband is just a pet food license away. Look for the stuff at local natural food markets, or even the occasional farmers’ market or roadside stand. We at CL are not advocating that you seek out the farmers who offer l
