Too much red meat shortens life
The largest study of its kind finds that older Americans who eat large amounts of red meat and processed meats face a greater risk of death from heart disease and cancer. The federal study of more than half a million men and women bolsters prior evidence of the health risks of diets laden with red meat like hamburger and processed meats like hot dogs, bacon and cold cuts.
I just need to comment on the headline on that article:
Study links high intake of red meat to greater risk of death
Of course it's qualified later, but doesn't everyone have a 100% risk of death?

Yeah, unless you're gonna be Raptured up.
Ha! Hec's ideal world would be a sandwichocracy! It would be sandwichtastic!
If I can win the Reuben vote in New York and the torta vote in LA, I just might be able to finesse this electoral map. It's the pulled pork sandwich vote that will make or break my candidacy.
Don't forget the crucial New Orleans muffaletta vote.
Komodo dragons kill man
The man, Muhamad Anwar, 31, was found bleeding from bites to his hands, body, legs and neck within minutes of falling out of a sugar-apple tree on the island of Komodo and died later at a clinic on neighbouring Flores. The giant lizards had been waiting for him under the tree, according to a neighbour, Theresia Tawa...
The carnivorous Komodos, which live for up to 50 years, can grow to 10ft in length and weigh up to 200lbs. Though they rarely attack humans – and had not previously killed an adult for more than 30 years – an eight-year-old boy died after being mauled in 2007 and attacks are said to be increasing as their habitat becomes restricted. Their diet usually consists of smaller animals, including other members of their own species.
I read somewhere else that the guy had been trespassing and stealing fruit....
I could eat less bologna and such, but living to 100+ without eating a cheeseburger seems to not be worth it.
Oprah's show is repeated after Craig Ferguson late at night, and last night there were these people chirping "I only eat 1900 calories a day, and I feel terrific! I only eat apple peels and a few nuts and salads! I could live to be 200 years old!" And I thought, "Why bother?"
If I can win the Reuben vote in New York
Next time I make corned beef in the slow cooker, it will strictly be to eat it as leftovers in Reubens.

Instead of "kills man", it should be "shows man the logical conclusion of his actions."
It turns out it wasn't just Lexis that is not working. It's pretty much any electronic product connected to either Lexis or Westlaw.
Today is making the baby Jesus cry.
