Millions earmarked for N.L. restaurants a nod to an industry that's 'too big to fail,' says chef
The Newfoundland and Labrador government has earmarked millions of dollars to help right the rocky restaurant industry, a move that a St. John's chef says a sign of long-overdue recognition.

Thought of the day. #billionaires why do you need that much money? I'm having a hell of a time finding a job because they PAY TOO MUCH! I don't want the headaches of a 150k job when I just want to live in a mini house and read books. Books don't cost a million dollars. What the hell costs a billion dollars that you have to railroad people for? #money #greed

Improving Numerical Measures of Human Feelings: The Case of Pain d.repec.org/n?u=RePEc:lan:wpap
"… proposed and validated a new method to measure the experienced intensity of acute pain across individuals. This method proved to be overwhelmingly more accurate and sensitive than standard, established methods for experimentally-induced acute pain which are used in medical, clinical and research applications
… In the case of experienced pain intensity, the mechanism that enables the new #measurement method to excel might indeed be rooted in its well-calibrated scale: #money.
… Money-free standard methods ask people for numerical estimations of their experiences without a benchmark for the numerical scale, which might lead them to choose salient numbers or intermediate values.
… Monetary amounts provide interpersonally comparable references and thereby reduce the intrinsic subjectivity in pain measurements.
… The use of monetary incentives is unproblematic for those applications, as it is already common practice to reward participation in them"
