...which took some getting used to. Stairs were not easy. Neither was picking up my toddler. But both made me sore where I was hoping they would. The $110 EasyTones were cheaper and more normal-looking, but I preferred the $245 MBTs, in part because they have the added benefit of making me stand up straight.

...always good and more is always better. For decades, patients have been steeped in the notion that frequent screening is not just beneficial but also essential to the early detection of cancer.

Proponents say the studies are essential to ending medical treatments that juice up fees without adding much benefit. But it is far from clear whether Congress would allow such studies to affect health care costs. Opponents say they are a precursor to medical rationing. Indeed, both the House and Senate bills explicitly prevent this research from being used to decide which services Medicare would...
