NOT Live Coverage is why the Olympics suck! 
    Sports are best live. Watching Olympics and commercials pass by.
here's what's weird:
Silhouette of man rising out of water on butterfly stroke looks exactly like ovaries. Hello Leonardo

The USA version of the most popular worldwide brand is built on showing a child AKA competitor self-swaddle in blankie.;

I gave up on NARAL back in 2009 when they rolled belly-up instead of fighting to have abortion covered under 'Obamacare'  Yeah that grand compromise which probably will be rendered moot by the Supreme Court and rallied the anti-choicers to push and win further restrictions on access to abortion.

The abortion conflict has become a way of life for Stave. He’s not just a landlord. The clinic was operated by his father, who was a doctor. Then his sister managed it.
“I’ve been a member of this fight since Roe v. Wade, since I was 5 years old,” he said. The office was firebombed when he was a kid, and protesters gathered outside the family home as he was growing up. So he’s no stranger to the harassment and bullying of doctors and their families.

WTF!  Children's Claritin Grape Chewables-20 tablet box is $25 at different stores in NYC & NJ!  Again WTF!  I found a receipt from April 2011 for grape-flavored liquid Claritin on sale for $3.19.  Not a perfect comparison but I find the discrepancy suggestive of price gouging in this awful allergy season.

Claritin 2011: 4 0z Children's Liquid Claritin = $3.19 on sale = 11 doses (10 mL per dose)

Via the ever fascinating Reddit, a new type of nuclear fuel that is abundant and can be used safely?  I will have to watch this video a few more times to understand.
