		<description><![CDATA[One of the economic shortcomings that&#8217;s more or less obvious in &#8220;just letting the market handle it&#8221; is that the market often doesn&#8217;t include total costs of use. The situation is akin to letting someone buy supplies for a large party, holding the party on common land, and then simply walking off, leaving the trash [...]]]></description>

Both questions are a matter of energy, thus piquing my underlying physicist nature. Glucose to ATP The first question really was really along the lines [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[An episode of Freakonomics embodied the concept that creating explicit requirements replaces prior tacit requirements. In this episode, a day-care center in Haifa imposed an explicit fine for late pick-ups by parents. In contradiction to the expected decrease in late pick-ups, the explicit fine replaced the tacit penalty of parental guilt and the number of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Over the last 15 months, I&#8217;ve been working as part of the Massage Therapy Foundation&#8217;s Best Practices Committee on defining a protocol for creating evidence-based guidelines for massage therapy. Fairly early on in the process I did a draft literature review of existing criteria for guideline creation. Recently, I&#8217;ve been thinking of how to define [...]]]></description>
