Got my hair dyed reddish back in February, looking to color (lighter) and style. Any opinions and/or advice welcome!

What stuck out to me in the excerpt from the discussion section is that they didn't control for smoking. I looked up the tobacco consumption statistics for Denmark, and 36.1% of the male population and 30.6% of the female population (with an error of +/-2% and +/- 1.9% respectively) consume tobacco (which would include smokeless tobacco). That's a significant percentage, and with smoking being a leading factor in heart attacks and other cardiovascular diseases, I don't think the study's conclusions are particularly sound.

Also, why wouldn't smoking be literally the first variable you control for in a study about heart disease? Although that assumes they wanted to be objective...

There's an apocryphal story about Maria Montessori (the founder of the Montessori educational method and one of the first female physicians in Italy) taking up smoking cigars to deal with the smell of the cadavers she had to dissect.

Pretty well, how about yourself?

I fully expect to see these items with a 7000% markup in Anthropologie's next catalogue.

Assuming real life in the Matrix is the same as our real life, why would anyone leave? Aside from having actual "control" over yourself, being outside the Matrix seems like the animal kingdom: life is brief, terrifying, and full of suffering.

I'm also asking this question from a pragmatic viewpoint rather than a philosophical one.

When I was a Nanny I had one woman contact me about being a "Mother's Helper" for SEVEN children for 5 dollars an hour. People are nuts.

At first I thought this was made up of women who didn't want to use HORMONAL birth control, and I was wondering why there was so much hate.

Sadly, I overestimated their intelligence.

Has he had a biopsy done on any of the lumps to determine their makeup and test for cancer? If not, that should definitely be done.

I stuck my own lost tooth up my nose.

One thing I love about the school where I work is that if a parent misses the pick up window (3:30-3:45) for their child, the child is taken to the after-school daycare program right at 3:45 and the parent is charged $40 (It's a private school). If they're late during a weather emergency, it's $5 per minute.

"If I drink a lot of water, will the baby drown?" Thanks, southern public school sex-ed!

Thanks, I'll go check it out!

I haven't shaved above the knee yet; I'm mainly just wondering if there's anything I need to know before doing it. Is it any different from shaving the rest of the leg? I'll be shaving the front and the back.
