Great article about puffed-up health claims about chocolate: Flavanols? Really ironic that main critic is named Prof. Marion Nestle who is not associated with Nestlé foods.



Europe's VAT or Value added tax is refundable by Global Blue. You need the form from the point of purchase, your receipt and finding Global Blue at the airport. Just received my refund, that was quick.

Perfect score!

A landline, it comes as part of my triple-play. My old phone's battery was weak, it was about 15 years old. A replacement cost about $12. My answer: a new system, with a new battery for $32. My landline is mostly robo-calls and requests for money, blood or surveys.



Wow! March is here. March Madness starts soon.
