Do we humans "mindlessly" stuff our faces? Are we programmed from birth to hoover up as many calories as we can? Or does eating involve a deeper intelligence?

Turns out the answer could be sitting in your collection of gravy-spattered COOKBOOKS!

Know how much an assumed 4% inflation impacts the value of your money 20 years from now?

After-tax income of $150,000 then could buy as little as $68,000 of goods/services in today’s terms.

We need to increase our comp.

We need to invest.

We should not view these as optional.

A survey is only as good as the questions.

Here are 7 tips to make sure you craft effective survey questions:

1/ Start with the goal in mind. Know what information you want to collect.

2/ Be specific. Ask precise questions that avoid ambiguity.

Open access to courts is important in Canada as well.

[Scott Hechinger @ScottHech]

Injustice happens in empty courtrooms. But a growing movement of volunteer court watchers is showing up & documenting what they see. This powerful short film-"The Court Watchers"-tells the story. *Score by Fiona Apple. Narration by Jesse Williams.*

Doubtless you've heard that "we all get the same 24 hours in the day." Of course it's not true: rich people and poor people experience very different demands on their time. 1/

“This idea that we’re kind of a post-class or a no-class society is maybe more dangerous than having some awareness of class”

These are brilliant and so much fun to read through!

I couldn’t get my Uber because of “connectivity issues” so I just started walking down La Cienega until I had more than one bar.

“The clinical act and medicine saved my life.

I cherished it before but now it feels like someone turned up the colour knob on the TV and suddenly things are more vivid and precious.”

One of the many things I like about @jamesmaskalyk is his on-the-ground realism about what ails our health care system (there's lots!) coupled with a glass-half-full enthusiasm about making it better. That comes through in this G&M article https://t.co/CSOBwUseoa @CMAJ

This could be great. It’s sooo important to measure the impact.

We need to be able to say how this has led to improved (or decreased) health for Ontarians a year from now.

[Sylvia Jones @SylviaJonesMPP]

Spread the word! Starting Jan. 1, Ontarians will be able to visit pharmacies across the province to receive treatment for common ailments at no cost.

Expanding the ability of pharmacists to provide care is one way we’re making it more convenient to access care in the community.
