Glutes were sore as hell from Saturday. Had to go easy on the squats. 

It's a scam. They tested it on rats in China once and then Dr. Oz claimed it was a miracle product for people.

Good job bierorama!

I hate rude athletes. I'm no runner, but when I'm lifting, I can't stand people who either try to hog 3 machines at once or lift weights where the cable machine is, so you can't use it, even though they're using dumbbells.

After the first time, I would have just pushed her away. Good thing I'm not a runner.

Yes and no. As you progress, you should improve in technique and stamina, so it should get easier, but you should also up the intensity to keep it challenging. I am a much stronger than I was a year ago, but I lift heavier weights now, so I still leave the gym beat.

I do think threads should be locked if they don't get any new activity after x months. 

I'm glad she came forward. She's beautiful, rich many times over, but at the end of the day she's human and she still has the same vulnerabilities that everyone else has. A lot of women struggle with why me, why my family. When seemingly perfect people have the same problems, we can see that we're not alone. We're not genetic screw ups or freaks.

No. Miller was appointed in 2010. He replaced a Bush appointee.

87% is the risk over her lifetime. It's not the risk she is facing right now. As she gets older, her risk increases, so she got the surgery before her risk was going to rise any higher. She's almost 40, so her risk would have sharply gone up. 

Her procedure was an extremely personal decision. More and more women who are younger are making it. Most of them, however, are not and opt for increased screening instead. Until you are actually in this position, and you can actually assess your risk factor and family history with a geneticist or insert other professional you have no business judging people who get it verses people who don't. 

I just got tested for a BRCA mutation because it runs in my family, and I am awaiting the results. If it's positive, I'm not rushing for a double mastectomy. Why not? Currently, I'm young. My risk factor isn't elevated at this point, and by the time it is substantial, 15 years down the line, perhaps there will be better options available. This is why I would wait and see. 

except that the form of cancer we're talking about typically hits before the age of 40, which is why it's so lethal.

No it doesn't. 

The IRS is allegedly a non-partisian entity, but it has been used as a political weapon for decades. This is nothing new; they just got caught this time.
