If this was presented by the Council for Peanut Butter & Jelly Research, it might be written off as mere propaganda. Instead it’s one of the few times you’ll see cow farts under serious scientific and environmental discussion.

OPEN LETTER TO AZZIZ
From former ASU President Shirley Strum Kenny. The sad thing about this letter: it’s dated January 9. In it, she says “considerable fence-mending” will be required to help the community heal after the hostile takeover engineered by Azziz. It has been more than two months since he received that letter. Where is the fence-mending? Azziz refused an interview request from …
Changing the clocks
According to the National Sleep Foundation (NSF), changing our clocks shouldn’t mean losing an hour of sleep. “The Sunday that marks the return of Daylight Saving Time is a shorter day. Make it a shorter day with fewer activities, not a shorter morning with less sleep,” says David Cloud, CEO of the National Sleep Foundation. The effect of that lost …
Azziz: The Week So Far
Well let’s see… on Sunday he was compared to Stalin in a bit of artistic hyperbole wrought by the inimitable Rick McKee in The Augusta Chronicle’s Opinion section (below). Today Dr. John Salazar writes, in the Chronicle’s Letters to the Editor, of his disappointment with the collapse of the “Save the A” movement, throwing in a subtle, between-the-lines reference to …
Thank you, Glynn Moore

Here’s to our hearts
What you’re seeing below is an actual image of a working heart on this, the final day of February, the traditional month to observe heart health awareness. So starting tomorrow, we won’t have to worry about taking care of our hearts until February 2014. NOT! Our hearts work for us around the clock, 24/7/365 (except during leap years). The least …
CROTCHES KILL!
What, you didn’t know that? As you can see, that is the message of this week’s Public Service Announcement from Canada. Sure, texting while driving is illegal and presumably not practiced by law abiding motorists. But nobody ever said anything about reading texts while driving. That can be just as dangerous. It distracts you from driving. It causes you to …
