There is no doubt that if this continues the Chief will have a heart attack, although he hasn't had one yet. This is getting worse very rapidly, and today I could not get his blood pressure down at all. Plus his heart was pounding and his heart rate was going up and down very erratically; I ...

This is my hell. Diagnosis unstable angina, SuperDoc told me to be very worried. The Chief was at the hospital all day into late evening (we got home around 11). New angiogram. No blockage, but low blood flow to the lower heart. The hospital prescribed Imdur; SuperDoc told me that because of ...

Through a series of flights, drives etc, my immediate family all managed to end up together for Thanksgiving in the Ne. That was the great part. The weather was not great. The difficult part was that my brother the TechnoBuddha was scheduled (while he was in the area) for a checkup with the ...

Among those climate "science" files hacked and distributed were a bunch of programming files. WUWT has a set of comment segments. My favorite " What the hell is supposed to happen here? Oh yeah - there is no 'supposed', I can make it up. So I have :-)" The loneliness of the long distance ...

Yesterday's GDP update for Q3 was more in line with what I had, and it implies that Q4 should show continued growth, and perhaps more growth than Q3. So why am I so relatively pessimistic about 2010? Well, the first reason is compounded of some of the signs from Asia, which is improving. But ...

See Shrinkwrapped , Watts Up , The Reference Frame . ClimateAudit is unobtainable, but will have lots good. www.climateaudit.org. I'm still reading the healthcare bill, so I can't really read this massive group of files, but this is hawt: From: Tom Wigley [...] To: Phil Jones [...] ...

Patient Protection and Affordable Health Care Act, now substituted for the original text in 3590. You can read it here . I copied the table of contents below. I am going to concentrate on the revenue section first. I highlighted all the sections I'm going to read with special attention. ...

Treasury yields . Look at 'em. Scream. Pass out. Wake up. Get off floor. Stagger weakly to toilet. Vomit. CF Economics . Zero Hedge . I have come to have such scorn for Geithner and the rest of them that I can't even write about this stuff. I don't watch TV. All I read are articles about ...

I think I owe you guys an explanation, and let me know if this does not serve. I am doing my best, and now trying pretty pictures. The operative forces hauling the economy back down in the short term are energy prices plus lower incomes for a large portion of the population plus underlying cost ...

1) That really nice third quarter Japan reported? That's the real number. Nominally speaking, Japanese GDP shrank. This is the thing we call "deflation", and when your national debt is rapidly approaching 200% of GDP, it kind of makes matters worse. A Bloomberg article that covers the high ...

It's worth taking a look at the actuarial analysis on HR 3962 done by CMS (Medicare/Medicaid agency). The report can be found here , and is relatively concise. The first 17 pages contain the analysis, and the rest of the 31 pages are basically tables. The analysis I did looks at what will ...

As we get closer to the end of the year, this data gets ever more astounding. Inventories of all classes are above the upper bound of the average level except for propane, which is in the upper half of the average range. On a YTD basis compared to last year's YTD, domestic production has ...

On Veterans Day, which began life as Armistice Day, we celebrate all our armed forces personnel who have served or are serving. Obviously this year's celebration is a rather somber one due to the worries over Afghanistan and the Fort Hood massacre. But this should only serve to highlight our ...

I'm not uncurling until I can read Lockhart's speech and laugh until I cry instead of just crying. See CR . Oh, our inanity is transforming into insanity. There were contributing factors; I unwarily took a look at Treasury yields. The news of the ultimate fate of the Kelo condemn-the-unblighted ...

I'm stil dead on my feet, so I won't be posting again today. My work on the understanding banking series was rudely interrupted by Friday's Fort Hood massacre and then the dog's death. But one item I normally follow is the RBC CASH (Consumer Attitudes and Spending by Household) index. The last ...

The House, that is . Soon the country will be sick as a dog. See the CBO letter at their website . The bottom line is that an awful lot of money is supposed to be transferred from Medicare to the program; but what is not included is that those changes would force up the cost of health care to ...

I don't know if anyone can help. Since I woke up from an afternoon nap at about 4:00, I've been going through this. RD's last regular insulin was at 11:00 AM, and his total morning dosage was about 12 units lower than normal (35) because his blood sugars have been running lower. At 4:00 the ...

I am not surprised by the seemingly high rise in official unemployment from 9.8% to 10.2%, but there are other aspects of this report that are wincingly painful. Report. Table A-5. Table A-12 . Basic summary for household: 589,000 jobs lost (which is an improvement over recent months). ...
