  1. I Had an Affair With a Co-Worker. He Betrayed Me. Now What? 

    I think I am not guilty. 

    Sooner is better.  As soon as you can is best.

  2. Nine Reasons Not to Buy Time Magazine 

    Good reasons.
    My parents discontinued Time ~ 1949

  3. No-Recipe Smothered Pork Chops 

    I can do that.

    Sooner is better.   As soon as you can is best.
     
  4. Real Life Can Be Raw, in Marriage and Death 

    Sooner is better.  As soon as you can is best.

    Life is raw.  I do what I can.
    The room mate is 94 and in poor health.

  5. ‘Beetlejuice’ Musical Is Heading to Washington, Then Broadway 

     Tim Burton is a favorite of mine.
    I have seen nothing of his but trailers for The Nightmare Before Christmas and Beetlejuice which ran on television.  
    Charles Addams is central to me.  
    The cartoonist not the television show.

  6. David Leonhardt And Ian Prasad Philbrick

    The Case Against Stevia 

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stevia
    The authorities have not found a toxicological mechanism.
    My suspicion is it maintains the sugar response without providing glucose or fructose It lacks the five element ring of fructose so it is not
    an active toxin.
    It does not trigger the hormone that signals fed. 
    So if it is not combined with a starch there is no end of hunger.
    I would avoid it.
    It will lead to overeating by not killing the appetite.


  7. Jacob’s Pillow Dance to Honor Faye Driscoll 

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NAuoEA4VE10

    Grandfather would treat us to a day at the festival.
    I did not understand the performances.

    Faye Driscoll has made art of porn.
    The film is discrete.

  8. Those 2-Minute Walk Breaks? They Add Up 

    Understood.  I would not dare to stop walking.
    New York has been a walking city.
    People on Myrtle Ave. are not fat.

     


  9. H&M, a Fashion Giant, Has a Problem: $4.3 Billion in Unsold Clothes 

    Another bankruptcy.
    Amazon is taking over the world one industry at a time.
     
  10. Tech Tip

    Starting Fresh With Firefox 

    I like FireFox
    My home equipment uses an older version.
     
    A better plan is opening a private browsing window.
    Find the icon under the icon that looks like horizontal heavy lines at
    the far right of the task bar.  Drag it on to the task bar and drop it where you want it there.   Clicking it the icon will give you a private window that is said to leave no trace when closed.  Reopening it with the icon means starting again on content.
     
    The new one still has bookmarks. 
    Find the pull down menu at the top of the list that falls from the  icon that looks like the spines of a few books on a shelf.
    You will probably want to shut down Top Sites. 
    Perhaps pinning other sites to the page would be a better plan.
    Follow the instructions from the Times (below).

     
    "The first row of the New Tab page displays icons for the “Top Sites” you visit frequently or have used recently. If you have specific sites you would like to pin to the page or remove from view, you can customize the Top Sites collection. Just move the cursor over the top-right corner of an icon and click to get a menu of options."
     
     
    Sooner is better.     As soon as you can is best.
