Hoover was a difficult dog. Bassets are genetically narcoleptic, but ours made a case for canine Ritalin. He careered around the apartment possessed by a long-eared, drooling demon. He practiced situational bladder control on our cherry-wood parquet floors. He grew into 60 lbs. of torso with 3-in. stubs for legs, yet he could do a dead leap off the kitchen floor to swipe a pizza off the counter. Plus he bayed--a siren of woo-woos that endeared us to our condominium neighbors. But after every misdeed, he would turn his googly-eyed gaze...
...with this whole new “no underage drinking” thing Harvard’s got going. I’m not even talking about not peeing in a field because the line for the Port-a-Potties is too long for your drunken bladder to comprehend. I’m saying, let’s not fall for any Yale pranks this year, folks. Alumni, I’m looking at you—no undergrads I know were part of that debacle two years ago. Shameful.7. A copy of Basic Vision (Snowden, et al). For those...
...study by Harvard researchers warns carnivores of the obvious and not-so-obvious pitfalls of their diet. Frequent bacon consumption may increase the risk of bladder cancer—and so could the skinless chicken served in dining halls.

...inflammation connection. The most powerful anti-inflammatory drugs we have are the corticosteroids like prednisone. They have too many side effects to be first-line arthritis drugs but many folks have to take them for other reasons. These patients might find them actually too effective against pain. Appendicitis, gall bladder disease or even bowel infarctions can occur in these patients without them feeling any pain at all. This is very dangerous - the pain of early appendicitis is a good thing; it saves lives by bringing patients to the doctor before they start to die of abdominal infection...
