Insights On Progressive Thinking From The Climate Action Council Public Hearing

"THE SCOURGE OF SENTIMENTALITY POLITICS" IS REALLY THE SCOURGE OF FUTILITY POLITICS
Gawker's John Ganz writes about "The Scourge of Sentimentality Politics," but I don't think he really understands the problem: ... while the conservative movement has pumped out loyal foot soldiers who understood that the cause was the main thing, liberals have gotten caught up in the hagiography of their leading functionaries, making everyone involved forget that they are part of a larger movement and not the ends in themselves.

Not All Breads Are Created Equal. One of the Healthiest Breads is Easier to Digest, More Nutritious, and Better for Blood Sugar Balance
Bread has been a staple of the human diet for thousands of years, with a recent study dating it back nearly 15,000 years to be exact. Made from different types of wheat, grains, and fermented starter cultures, bread has long been known as a gourmet food or health food in certain circles, but it has gotten a bad rap in recent years. Instead of being made, fermented and baked from scratch, most store bought breads are now packed with preservatives, genetically engineered ingredients and oils like soybean and canola, and dough conditioners like DATEM, sodium stearoyl lactylate, ammoniu... read more
