What's going on in science: Coming (perhaps) shoes

I know they're expensive and funny looking, but I'm tempted. They are supposed to be a lot like walking barefoot, but without the cuts on your feet. ...

I recently started a running program and I love it. I have had arthroscopic surgery on both knees, left knee 2 years ago, and right knee in 1998 and then again in 2009. I have tried to take really good care of my knees, but really have been wanting to run for quite awhile now so just decided to do it, because I'm 52, I'm menopausal and gaining weight whereas I've never had a problem with that before, and just for my mental well-being. I don't do the high-imp ...

I have a pair of sandals that I love but they sound as if they have flatus when I walk and make the sound of someone with too much gas. I do not care to have any unwanted attention called to me and having people look so asking for anyone who has had a similar problem to let me know what they did. Thanks. ...

Anyone ever buy one of those "designer knock offs", like a purse or shoes? I live in LA and that is the designer knock off capital of the world! I bought a knock off of a Birken purse for 30 bucks! It has crooked stitching on the strap, and the liner inside is shifting a bit, but OMG I think it's so pretty and I love it! I could never ever shop on Rodeo Drive and buy the real one for 3000 dollars! I am sooo glad there are knock offs! BUT!... my si ...

http://www.mainstreet.com/article/sm...s&cm_ven=msIBS We’ve all heard the stereotype that women have more shoes than they know what to do with, but a new study provides some evidence for this claim. According to Glamour, the average woman will buy 469 pairs of shoes in her lifetime. All in all, she will end up spending $25,000 on shoes. So ladies, if you’re looking to cut corners, ditching the shoe addiction might be a good first step. This number comes from a survey of 3,000 ...

I bought a pair of Skechers slip-on sneakers about a year ago. I made the mistake of wearing them for the first time without socks and developed a big sore on my right heel. Flash forward many months...I wore them again, this time with socks, and developed a big sore again. I've tried different socks, moleskin, etc. The right shoe continues to bother my heel. The left shoe is fine. Does anyone know a magic trick or anything to fix this problem? Thank you. ...

My boyfriend's cousin called me his "goody two shoes" girlfriend when he first met me and now he gets embarassed every time I mention it, so as a joke to him I want to make him a goody-two-shoes costume for my halloween party. All I can think to do is take a poster board, put elastic on the back, make arm holes, and glue candy and shoes to the front of it, and write goody two-shoes on it. Does anyone have a better idea??? ...

By Sahil KapurMonday, April 5th, 2010 -- 10:14 am President Obama's most vigorous opponents have gone to great lengths to paint him as a Muslim, despite all evidence to the contrary. At a recent event, a Tea Party organizer pushed those limits even further. "In the yellow cinder-block meeting room of the Munford, TN, municipal building, the Tipton County Tea Party convened on a recent evening to raise money for billboards, organize a tax day protest and encourage attendance at a state con ...

Apparently the asteroid that is supposed to pass very close to Earth today was discovered by a dentist last year who has astronomy as a hobby. Did you see the destruction the meterorite caused in Russia? Do you think it is the job of big government to take care of us? Just wondering. ...

To sum up the article: "We found that in their search for explanations under such uncertain and confusing conditions, people rely partly on projection -- the assumption that others would behave much as they would." *** Some of the truths I have learned in my life: It seems like the ones who "squawk" the loudest are the ones who have the most guilt or are hiding something. Also, the person who most emphatically tells me "I would never do that" is most likely the same pers ...

Yet another (they are countless!) commie "friend" of B.O.'s, and this one serves in an (unconstitutional) advisory position to the interloper. You should pay attention to his ideology because this is the guy whose ideas shape "health care reform," or the socialized medicine/uber state-control GRID that we all are soon to be oppressed by. Holdren, the "science czar," has wrtiten that eventually, once you are ASSIGNED YOUR FEDERAL NUMBER (which will in turn be used to MONITOR ever ...

Proponents say messages could be framed to better appeal to basic instincts. As in, "Climate denier, climate denier, fly away home. Your house is on fire and your children all alone." But pointing out the very serious national security dangers surprisingly just made them angry and dismissive. We obviously have to try, but but I'm guessing many will still be dutifully protecting the Koch brothers' manufacturing plants when they're sitting in public shelters and the Koch brothers ...

We all know the ridiculous predictions about the polar ice disappearing. In the case of the north pole, we weren't told that they were predicated on less than 40 years of data, which in terms of climate trends isn't anything close to an adequate data set, and even now those are looking wobbly. We do have information about Antarctica from carefully recorded logs of explorers 100 years ago...and (I know this will surprise anyone who understands real science) the polar ice ...

Bernie Sanders, Ind/Dem/Socialist, plans to propose legislation that would strengthen Social Security without cutting benefits to any of its beneficiaries. Sanders’ legislation would eliminate the income cap that currently exists in the payroll tax that does not tax income above $106,800:*****To keep Social Security strong for another 75 years, Sanders’ legislation would apply the same payroll tax already paid by more than nine out of 10 Americans to those with incomes over $250,000 ...

by BarbinMD Wed May 12, 2010 at 08:16:02 AM PDT Oh, for the love of [insert preferred deity here] ... just when you thought it was impossible for the Republican Party to careen even further to the right, we now have a gubernatorial candidate in Alabama who is fighting back against the charge that he believes in science. After an ad appeared that said, "on the school board, Byrne supported teaching evolution, said evolution best explains the origin of life," Bradley Byrne howled: As a Chr ...

From the New York Times: Among Nobel laureates, President Obama appears to have won by a landslide. Sixty-eight Nobel Prize winners in the science fields, including the two Americans who won this year’s chemistry prize, have signed a letter endorsing Mr. Obama over his Republican rival, Mitt Romney. “President Obama understands the key role science has played in building a prosperous America,” the laureates wrote in a letter that was released on Wednesda ...

New Study Proves Reaganomics Supporters Are Stupid Science-Denying Idiots!by Omar Rivero April 22, 2013 Economic IssuesAccording to a new study by Psychological Science, those who believe in popular conservative free market economic theory are also more likely to not believe in science. This assertion should not come as a major surprise to any honest observer, but we now have empirical proof to support it.The study found that Americans who endorse free-market economic theories, which argue that ...

You will have to go halfway down the page to read the article. Ads are first. President Obama recently fretted that our politics has become so rough-and-tumble that “facts and science and argument do not seem to be winning the day all the time.” Speaking at a Democratic fundraiser just before the election, the president worried that Americans were so rattled by economic anxieties that they might lose their heads and choose Republicans over Democrats – a fear that becam ...

EnvironmentThe Fiction Of Climate ScienceGary Sutton, 12.04.09, 10:00 AM EST Why the climatologists get it wrong.http://www.forbes.com/2009/12/03/cli...gy-sutton.html Many of you are too young to remember, but in 1975 our government pushed "the coming ice age."Random House dutifully printed "THE WEATHER CONSPIRACY … coming of the New Ice Age."

All that taxpayer money down the tubes. "Obama’s GM ‘Success Story’ Headed for Bankruptcy" http://frontpagemag.com/2012/arnold-ahlert/obamas-gm-success-story-headed-for-bankruptcy/ ...

Whether you like the author or the paper it is from, this story is what I fear is happening to our country. I have had a sick feeling for the last few months as the election gets more and more aggressive and I know that our country will not be better for it after it is all said and done - no matter who wins on Tuesday. Just read it through without thinking about who you support or why. Try to recognize that our country is being torn apart from threats that are being made about what will ha ...

I have copied and pasted something someone wrote that pretty much sums up Scott (slime) Walker's intentions. Diane Ravitch has it in a nutshell. Of Scott Walker, she writes: He expects that over time, most public workers will stop paying dues, especially now that they have to pay more for their healthcare and pension benefits. And thus will he cripple, perhaps permanently, a perennial political opponent. If Gov. Walker succeeds, there will be no organized voice to oppose hi ...

Blogger Urges 'Bullet for Obama' on Twitter Secret Service investigating (Newser) – Secret Service authorities are investigating tweets by a conservative blogger apparently urging "a bullet" to President Obama's "head." Solomon Forell, upset by the impending passage of the health reform bill, noted yesterday that because the nation survived the killings of Lincoln and Kennedy, "we'll surely get over a bullet 2 Barack Obama's head!" reports Jezebel. He later a ...

Prophecies in those generations had not yet come to pass. As of this time, we have seen every prophecy come to pass except the very next event, which is Jesus removing the Church. This is the church age. The time span between the prophecies being written and then being fulfilled is remarkable and speaks mountains. Genesis 49:10 was written in 1440 B.C. and fulfilled in 5 B.C. Isaiah 53 was written in 700 B.C., fulfilled in A.D. 33. Daniel 2 and 7 were written in 530 B.C., which b ...

Ran some errands today. On the way home, I noticed a sign in front of someone's house with balloons that said "LAYOFF PARTY" Go figure . . . ...

Something just struck me today. I have a feeling that the truth about the two major candidates for president lies somewhere around the facts that Mitt Romney isn't as bad as his gaffes and appearances might indicate, and Barack Obama deserves a lot more credit than his opponents give him. Disagreement has always been part of political discussion in this country, but I hate where our political climate has taken us--no one DARES to say anything good about "the other side." ...

That's it for me. I've had it with all you liberals who make this idiocy possible. I'm sure it will be no time at all before Mr. Global President makes this the law of our land. Link ...

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. (TheBlaze/AP) – A suburban New York City newspaper has removed the names and addresses of residents with pistol permits from its website. Publication of the permit data following last month’s school shooting massacre in Newtown, Conn. produced a storm of outrage from gun owners. It also quickly resulted in a new state measure meant to protect permit holders’ privacy. The president and publisher of The Journal News Media Group announced the move Friday. Janet Hasso ...
