Where's your editor?

From the San Francisco Examiner Parenting blog:

The best baby grinder.

Now, I know San Francisco isn't kid friendly, but I had no idea. But really, it's a story about making your own baby food, but I guess the title was just too good to change.

Long time gone

Was out on paternity leave. . .but, wanted to pose this question:

Perhaps this is the reason why Senator Kent Conrad is holding up health care?

Despite their denials, influential Democratic Sens. Kent Conrad and Chris Dodd were told from the start they were getting VIP mortgage discounts from one of the nation's largest lenders, the official who handled their loans has told Congress in secret testimony.

Conrad, hoping to get re-elected, is trying to make good with his constituents, who likely oppose government-run health care. If he can water it down enough to make them happy, perhaps they won't vote him out when he's up again. Sen. Dodd, on the other hand, has no idea what you are talking about ("Dodd still maintains he got no preferential treatment.").
