Captain Atopic is this week's host of Grand Rounds. You can read it here. He calls it the “Grand Rounds 5:45 - Le Tour de France Edition!”
Where Grand Rounds is the Grand Tour of Medical Blogging, the Grand tour of Cycling is undoubtedly Le Tour de France, which concluded on Sunday in Paris. After three weeks of cycling, nearly 3,500km at an average speed above 40km/h, the peleton will ride up Paris' Champs Elysee's to the finish. Throughout the race, certain riders and teams will have reached their goals, revealed their future potential and achieved great triumphs. This week's Grand Rounds features some sterling examples of writing, all capable of Stage Victories, and some, much more. Welcome to the Tour...

Several bloggers come to Dr Regina Benjamin’s defense. I agree with them. It is much more important to look at her impressive qualifications.
- Dr Rob – Stone Throwing
- KevinMD -- We should not care about Regina Benjamin’s weight

I’d like to direct you to Buckeye Surgeon’s post “The Meaning of Life.” Be sure you read the comments.
Our purpose, our meaning is driven by the concept of "life"--- making it better, richer, less intolerable. If we admit this, then we are obligated to define what we mean by "life", because that is the fulcrum upon which we operate. What is life? What is it exactly that we are trying to save, to alleviate, to improve?

Interesting NPR interview of Michael Ruhlman on cooking and his new book, Ratio.
His new book, Ratio, is about learning basic ratios. For example: 3:2:1 — three parts flour, two parts fat (like butter) and one part water — makes a basic pie crust. Add a dash of salt, and it's a savory base for a quiche. Add some sugar, and you've got a shell for cherries, chocolate cream or fresh peaches.
