Hmmm...seems like the "free market" is its own religion nowadays, complete with unrealistic expectations for personal salvation.

Maybe similar to people saying, "I dont mean to offend you, but..." and then go on to do just that.

I sweat out all of my hormones at the end of my cycle every month. For those few days, I will go through 3 different pair of pajamas and several towels to cover up the literally human outlined soaking wet spot on the bed. My 2 pillows get flipped over so I have 4 dry sides. It's ridiculous the amount of laundry I go through on those 3 nights.
Then my hormones are all gone for the month and shark week begins, for which I am ever so grateful.
If it happened more often than that, I'd be extremely miserable.

A lot of times things change when kids are involved and there is huge pressure to get them involved and indoctrinated while they are young

7 million have signed up for the ACA, matching original projections.
I have been able to keep my private insurance, but it is a benefit of my husband's job. I have a preexisting condition, so it is nice to know that insurance is available if I ever need it.
And, you young people who are thinking of skipping it altogether, think about how one car accident could have you owing tens of thousands in medical bills. You would never get established in life
True, it's a conservative idea (thanks Mitt Romney) and single payer would be better since it would be available and affordable to everyone, but this is the best start that could be negotiated politically.

I'd be damned if I'd attend. If he can't bother to invite you himself, then why would he be surprised that you didn't show up?
I'm really big on forcing family members to follow normal social conventions. If they can't bother, then I can't bother.

First indisputable link between aluminum and alzheimer's
by EndofMysteries inhttp://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2014/02/140212093300.htm.
elevated brain aluminium, early onset alzheimer's disease in an individual occupationally exposed to aluminiumdate:february 12, 2014 source:keele university summary:research has shown for the first time that an individual who was exposed to aluminum at work and died of alzheimers disease had high levels of aluminum in the brain.
while aluminum is a known neurotoxin and occupational exposure to aluminum has been implicated in neurological disease, including alzheimers disease, this finding is believed to be the first record of a direct link between alzheimers disease and elevated brain aluminum following occupational exposure to the metal.

Unfortunately this is only one case study. It can show correlation but not causation.
What is needed is a statistically significant number of people and a carefully designed study that controls for (rules out) other factors.
More research needed.
