Interesting revelation of Boehner's involvement in the Keystone XL pipeline

2012-01-15 Thread Larry C. Lyons
John Boehner the republican speaker in the house has quite a lot of money invested in the Canadian tar sands or the Keystone XL pipeline project. I don't know about you but this really sounds like a significant conflict of interest - he stands to make quite a lot of money based on legislation

my question is whether we even know that fat kids become fat adults. Both of my kids were pudgy when small and emphatically are not any more, having added some height a couple of years later. Diet might be a better measure to track. Or, if there's science behind the correlation at the age where

Yes I am very well aware of how much oil is in the Tar Sands. That's not the issue. The issue is the apparent conflict of interest. So you have no problems with legislators advancing bills that will result in their receiving a substantial profit? I think you need to read up on the definitions of

Sure, it's a lifelong skill. But my point is that reporting BMI may not be the best measure of whether the skill needs work, particularly in pre-adolescents. Apart from the examples given in the article, some kids are skinny for a while then fill out, and others are chunky for a while then have a
