Obama's historic speech on the marriage ruling. Well worth watching if you missed it. http://www.c-span.org/video/?326809-1/president-obama-reaction-supreme-court-samesex-marriage-ruling Jim Obergefell's speech from the steps of the Supreme Court, including the larger connection to the murders in Charleston:…

I guess I was rambling too long and MFP cut me off. Just gonna say, I need to mind my sleep better.

This is a good reminder for all of us, 'specially me. Inadequate sleep has some really bad health effects, possibly even relating to dementia later on in life by not clearing the amyloids from your brain each night. I know that when I don't sleep well I get extra hungry, too lethargic to exercise, need more coffee just to…

I'd suggest getting out to run/walk the actual course you'll be on at least once before the event. This will be helpful for you to know what pace you need to set for yourself and how much energy you should be expending during any particular part of the course. Try to do it at the same time of the day of the event too. Best…

Well let me tell you, I speak for THE MOST POWERFUL FICTITIOUS CHARACTER IN ALL THE MULTIVERSE, and I say, er...the fictitious character says that your debate partner is fulla Scheiße. Seriously, when you strip away the unprovable, sin is merely a repackaged appeal to authority (one of the logical fallacies), and you're…

I'm gonna dress up as a couch potato for SF Pride, just like I have for years. It is so crazy huge that it's just too painful to move anywhere at all. Good views can still be had for the parade without too much trouble, but the celebration area is impossible. You can't even get close to the booths to see what organizations…

Michael Specter, a science writer for The New Yorker, wrote an article that touched on weight gain from antibiotic use as well as one about current treatment protocols for Lyme disease. I don't exactly get all my information from Michael Specter, but coincidentally he wrote articles on each of the concerns you have. The…

I thought I'd share a little news clip from San Francisco earlier today: NCLR director Kate Kendell tells everyone how she really feels about Proposition 8: -- Warning: "bad" language (but very appropriate) -- http://youtu.be/nR96ONNkLts I was watching this morning and laughed as hard as Ed Lee when I heard that.…

Love it! :laugh: :laugh: I bet that outfit makes for some interesting tan lines.

I was looking forward to doing the San Francisco Bay-to-Breakers (12 km), but they want like $50 for registration these days! If I can find a good benefit run that I like, maybe I'll participate soon. My 5k time is down to 27 min, and I'm pretty happy about that. When I started MFP in June of last year, my knee hurt so bad…

I'm proudly intolerant of intolerance. Point it out, call me names, and I'll stand up and say, that's me. And let's not forget that the traditional definition of marriage is one man and as many women as he can acquire. The tradition of women as chattel, payments in exchange for marriage, multiple wives, and concubines is…

Olivia's comments and action are shameful and transparently homophobic. Her cited reason for deleting your post would seem to be a thin veil for her personal feelings, as you were clearly not "Hi-Jacking, Trolling, or Flame-baiting." I note that the post introducing the completely out-of-left-field "anti-christian bigotry"…

Great advice. San Francisco (and Berkeley / Oakland) have many excellent restaurants but few excellent parking spaces. Driving a car is a treacherous thing in SF these days, particularly when it comes to parking. For any given parking space, there are usually no fewer than 3 individual signs, randomly placed and obtusely…

The Nike+ Running app doesn't need anything extra, but the Nike+ Training app needs their shoes to work. Does your heart rate monitor indicate how many calories you burn as a function of heart rate? Do you remember how much you paid for it? Thanks
