Wish I had a nickle for every time Patteigh posted :rolleyes:

Me too :P

<_< My son said that, at about the time of the momentous post, he had a welcome phluid event.

Maybe after a certain point, the phlipover causes a helpful phluid event instead of a destructive one?

I'm loving that Pads' paramount phlipover became an Event.

Not that we have the authority, but if jerseyangel were promoted to jerseysaint it'd've been a real St. Paddeigh's Day, complete w/ sanctioned, neigh, encouraged synchronized imbibements. :lol::wub:;)

:lol: :lol: :lol: Pataughmn!!

When r the commemorative coins due out from Franklin Mint? :)

March. :rolleyes:

Patteigh, I think that's YOU on our pennies!!

I'm the Loon B)

Makes cents to me! :P

<snoooooooort>

Last year we had the world's most annoying sumbitc* of a snow storm two days before Halloween.

We did too, followed by the mildest winter in years.

New Jersey. Yep, the same storm :)

I'd rather have a snow storm then unbeareable heat any day.

Not when it takes your power out for eight days in the freezing cold! Probly not as much of a problem in CO though is it?

That's what log burners and gas cooktops are for B)

If I had either of those, I'd be good!

shadowicewolf Proficient

Sometimes, but where i live the power lines are burried so... no random powerouts.

I miss wooden stoves though :(

Though CO doesn't deal with it as well as MT does. We'd get two feet over night and still had to go to school and the buses still ran. None of this 3 inch crud.

Two feet overnight? Pah, a mere dusting.... . . ...

There were times when it was really difficult to open the front door to let the poodle out. Not to mention the poor car would be buried.

Clocks go back in the UK this weekend. So while some people look forward to an extra hour in bed Sunday morning, I get 2 kids who will be up at @5am instead of 6am for at least a couple of weeks

:(

Aside from that I love this time of year. 10 degrees and sunny here :)

jerseyangel Proficient

Happy Birfday Karrighnne!!!!!!!! :)

shadowicewolf Proficient

i'm looking forward to setting the clock back in the US :)

i'm looking forward to setting the clock back in the US :)

I thought we did that already? Wish we would put an end to that practice for good!

Not till after halloween :)

The shift is disruptive--no question.

The problem is that mid-day (noon) is not the middle of the day for most people, just as midnight is not the halfway point in their sleep time.

There is one place that has it right, IMO. Saskatchewan does not observe DST. Instead, they observe Central Standard Time year-round. But geographically, they belong in the Mountain zone. So, in effect, they observe Mountain Daylight Time 12 months a year. See the province just to the west on the time zone map:

There are a couple places in America that do not observe it either.

shadowicewolf Proficient

Arizona I believe is one of them.

jerseyangel Proficient

Parts of Indiana.

psawyer Proficient

Yes, Arizona (except for the Navajo reservation) and parts of Indiana. But they ignore it. Saskatchewan, by using a time zone east of where they actually are, effectively observe it year-round. Solar noon occurs around 1:00 every day of the year. The middle of my waking day is closer to 1:00 than it is to 12:00. It is actually much later than 1:00.

Which is the only sensible thing. :)

      Celiac Disease causes more vitamin D deficiency than the general population because of limited UV sunlight in the winter and the little available from food is not absorbed well in the damaged small intestine.  Taking 10,000 IU a day (250 mcg) a day broke my depression. Taking it for eleven years.  Doctor recently said to not stop.  My 25(OH)D is around 200 nmol/L (80 ng/ml) but it took about six years to get there.  Increasing vitamin D also increases absorption of Calcium. A good start is 100-gram (3.5-ounce) serving of salmon,  vitamin D from 7.5 to 25 mcg (300 to 1,000 IU) but it is going to take additional vitamin D supplement to be effective.  More importantly salmon has an omega-6 to omega-3 ratio 1:10 anti-inflammatory compared to the 15:1 infammatory ratio of the typical Western diet. Vitamin D and Depression: Where is all the Sunshine?

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts.  I respectfully disagree.  You cherry picked a small section from the page.  I will do the same below: The agency is seeking information on adverse reactions due to “ingredients of interest” (i.e., non-wheat gluten containing grains (GCGs) which are rye and barley, and oats due to cross-contact with GCGs) and on labeling issues or concerns with identifying these “ingredients of interest” on packaged food products in the U.S. “People with celiac disease or gluten sensitives have had to tiptoe around food, and are often forced to guess about their food options,” said FDA Commissioner Marty Makary, M.D., M.P.H. “We encourage all stakeholders to share their experiences and data to help us develop policies that will better protect Americans and support healthy food choices.” --- end quote Anyone with celiac disease is clearly a stakeholder.  The FDA is encouraging us to share our experiences along with any data to help develop future "policies that will better protect Americans and support healthy food choices".  I see this as our chance to speak up or forever hold our peace.  Like those that do not participate in elections, they are not allowed to complain.  The way I see it, if we do not participate in this request for public comment/feedback, then we should also not complain when we get ill from something labeled gluten-free. Have a blessed day ahead, Known1

      Here is a link to the spreadsheet I kept to track my nutrition intakes.  Maybe it will give you ideas. It is not https so browsers may flag a security warning. There is nothing to send or receive. http://doodlesnotes.net/index3.html I tracked everything I ate, used the National Nutrition Database https://www.foodrisk.org/resources/display/41 to add up my daily intake and supplemented appropriately.  It tracks about 30 nutrients at once.

      Hello @catnapt, That's so true.  Every person with Celiac Disease has different symptoms.  There are over 200 that it mimics.  Too many still believe that it is only a childhood disease you outgrow.  Or it's psychosomatic or simply a fad.  Idiots.  It's easy to get angry at all of them.   You just have to pick at the answers until you find the ones that work for you.  I too suffer from not being able to take the drugs that work for "everyone else".  SSRIs make me twitch ane feel like toothpicks are holding my eye open, ARBs cripple me.  Statins cause me intestinal Psuedo Obstruction.  Espresso puts me to sleep.  I counted 19 different symptoms that improved from GFD and dealing with my nutritional defecits.  I couldn't breath through my mouth until I started GFD at 64 years old.   My son was born with celiac disease, biopsy diagnosed at weaning.   So why are we the one-percenters.  Why, after being silent for so long, does it suddenly flare? There is the possibility that you have both Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity.  NCGS was not established as a diagnosis until 1980.  NCGS is diagnost by first elimating Celiac Disease as the cause, and showing improvement on GFD.  Nothing says you can't have symptoms from both.  Wheatbelly: Total Nutrition by Dr. Davis was helpful to me. We come to the forum to share what we've learned in dealing with our own symptoms.  Maybe this will help someone. Speaking of which if you don't mind; what is your 25(OH)D vitamin D blood level?  You mentioned a mysterious Calcium issue. Vitamin D, Calcium and Iodine are closely interactive. It is not uncommon for postmenopausal women to have insufficient intake of Iodine.   (RDA): Average daily level of intake sufficient to meet the nutrient requirements of nearly all (97%–98%) healthy individuals; often used to plan nutritionally adequate diets for individuals You are a one-percenter.  You may need higher intake of some essential nutrient supplements to speed up repairing the damages.
