		<description><![CDATA[This past Monday, Diane was out house-hunting. She checked out a listing for a house that was interesting in part because it was close to a park. After looking at the house, Diane went over to the park to have a look at it, too. This was Sawgrass Lake Park in St. Petersburg, Florida, near [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes editorials are just a way to prevent a few blank column-inches. Certainly the editors of the Investor&#8217;s Business Daily would have been better off with blank column inches than with the screed they actually published. After all, if you are making an argument and cite an example that not only does not work for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, the Texas State Board of Education had a hearing on the science curriculum. As expected, the big issue was over evolutionary science and how it would be taught in Texas K-12 classrooms. Kathy Miller Dan Quinn of the Texas Freedom Network and Steve Schafersman of Texas Citizens for Science did liveblogging from the hearing [...]]]></description>

This evening, I came across another alternative, oral appliances (OAs). These are structures applied in the mouth that are supposed to provide an open airway mechanically, [...]]]></description>

I brought this up with my primary care physician, who set me up to take a sleep study. This isn&#8217;t a new thing; I was experiencing daytime sleepiness back in high school, where my Spanish teacher was confounded [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This New York Times article talks about a modern work hazard, the stress of blogging for pay. Apparently, a couple of high-profile technology bloggers have kicked the bucket in an untimely fashion. One of them left an email that may stand as his last words: &#8220;Have come down with something. Resting now posts to resume [...]]]></description>

I got a flu shot a couple of weeks ago, and until last night I had no symptoms. But within the space of a couple of hours, I went from nothing to severe shivering [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The proposed science standards for Florida are different from the old standards. One way in which they differ is that the word &#8220;evolution&#8221; appears in the proposed standards. There were four previous public meetings for comment on the proposed standards, including one in Orlando. Well, now there is a media advisory out that just one [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ELEMENT OF SURPRISE At the University of South Florida, Professor Jay Dean has equipment that synthesizes two exotic technologies in order to examine something very basic indeed: how oxygen interacts with tissues. The two technological bits are a hyperbaric chamber and an atomic force microscope (AFM). This allows Dean and his colleagues to examine, at [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been a while since I discussed what&#8217;s up with my medical condition. That&#8217;s actually been good news. I&#8217;ve been doing pretty well, with a good deal less pain than when I still had my colon. But because I no longer have that large intestine, there are some things that become a matter of maintenance [...]]]></description>
