I was surprised to read recently how breast reduction for men has become big business in the US. Guess it is all the sugars we eat that might be behind the growing problem. "Bosom buddies" http://www.trackyourplaque.com/blog/2010/10/bosom-buddies.html excerpt:

Along the same lines of stronger bones and increased testosterone, recall this study on Dr. Cannell's sight. I suppose the larger skeletal man might be the one that hangs out in the sun frequently...

Aw, thanks guys for the follow up. Sounded too good to be true.

Thought this was interesting, so thought to post. http://nephropal.blogspot.com/2010/08/hilter-had-jewish-and-african-roots.html

I guess on the weight lifting boards vitamin D3, the sunshine vitamin, has become a popular supplement for raising testosterone levels. D3 is misnamed as it is really a hormone or maybe better said a pro-hormone. I'm not sure how it works at increasing test levels, but remember this article...

Good luck to your wife Aristander. Hope she does not have cancer! I was just reading last week one possible reason why men develop man boobs. Men's lingerie is on the second floor http://heartscanblog.blogspot.com/2010/08/mens-lingerie-is-on-second-floor.html

Maybe along the same lines as Italy - in America, with our melting pot, there are discussions about what causes differences in test scores for school. Thomas Sowell had a nice article on this topic yesterday concerning a New York school that selects top students from the city. The make up of...

Even Nigerians are scammed! :grin:

That would suck. I don't care much for the cold. Then again the frozen north is not sounding so bad right now. Our new place is in Florida, located on the gulf, soon to be touched with oil and maybe a hurricane or two. I almost feel I should apologize to America. I buy an ocean front place...

That's an interesting idea, planting trees for a family child born. I can handle that. Just bought a new home with decent room for trees.

I see the FDA has now decided they are going to regulate genetic testing companies like the 23andMe. Great - that is all we need, government making the tests more expensive and difficult to get...

Thanks, my jewish brother in law had a good time looking them over too.

Discover Blog has an interesting, more detailed write up on Jewish genetics this morning. http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/gnxp/2010/06/genetics-the-jewish-question/

Ah, interesting. Yeah, in my genealogy work, I ran across non jewish family members getting hitched. I think in general that was more common in the past, in western society. I'm guessing there wasn't the taboo that there is today. Thinking about it, I remember discovering that a great...

Strangely, in America what matters, if a racial joke is funny or not, is your political persuasion. Some will be attacked and vilified for racial funnies told, yet someone else could say the same joke, and receive laughs. There was a good example of the double standard this week when a...

My brother in law is Ashkenazi Jewish and when my first nephew was born as a gift I researched our family tree. Of all the trees done, my brother in law's was easiest. Many relatives of that family married each other. As I joked with him, it was the tree that did not branch! :laughing:

Didn't seen anything about the Phoenicians. I just saw that article about German Jewish genes and though it interesting. I have family members that are Jewish, one is staying with us on vacation this week, and it was on my mind.

Nice video. I'm not sure how much Americans are happy about Europe being focused on. We live in a world connected together economically. I think most Americans realize that we are in the same debt boat as Europe. But, yes, much like Europe, we certainly have big debt problems here too...

Saw this and thought it an interesting article written by an American foreign policy expert. Thought to post. http://blogs.the-american-interest.com/wrm/ Posted on May 21st, 2010 How Britain Can Stop Eating Toads Posted In: Anglo-American Project, Economics, Europe, History, U.S. Foreign...
