K.I.S.S. - Damn his hypocrisy, damn it to Hell
Via Consumerist
This was caught by so many people, but I'm ticked off at Clint Eastwood's response. He is a fool if he thinks his message was 'just about job growth'. As an actor, I would assume he knows how to read a script and understand subtext in order to get it across to the screen. Well the pro-bailout (that he was previously so anti) subtext of this commercial is clear. It's the old pee on my shoes and claim it's the rain problem, Clinty-poo; but you probably think that phrase is about spaying and neutering your pets...

CDC dishes on sodium
Via the CDC website
I've been talking about this in drips and drabs on the podcast. The problem is that food companies are afraid to drop sodium because it is such a huge component of taste. I'm all for the reduction, however. Taste be damned, I'd prefer healthier food.

Difference between HFCS & Corn Sugar
Via Consumerist
It's an interesting find and can easily lead one to believe the opinion (as I have) that high fructose corn syrup is not only not the same, but perhaps a bit more dangerous than, corn sugar.
I agree with the researchers who say that a long-term effects study is required, they need to also greatly enhance the selection size; 40 individuals is not enough and this is a study that should be easy to get a large population involved in.

This week I suffer the results of a week without working out thanks to an injury and a quick overhaul to my weight lifting program/schedule.
