Yes, but once again . . . hair in the butter. Plus, how often are you in the chest freezer and how often are you in the fridge? He's was just in the way, too many freakin' times. I don't care where he's more comfortable, if he wants to stay at MY house, he'll stay where I put him!!!

Oh, by the way, would anyone like to come visit . . . we've just had a new bed of nails installed in the guest bedroom!

Haven't even seen her reading . . . hopefully she's busy in a good/fun way.

Richard, I find your new avatar more disturbing than the one with everyone in the tub . . . just the expression on Susie's face . . . it doesn't LOOK like she is enjoying her kiss from Del Toro.

:huh::lol:

What?!

NEWSFLASH!

MYSTERY WOMAN REVEALED! :o

I guess her night out turned out ok after all. I think "the look" is the direct result of the wine glass in her left hand (not pictured).

I could use some photoshop too, but how would I convince the hospital that it is required for my job...ideas anyone?

Thank heavens the yeti wasn't leading when my boss walked in two minutes ago. Fortunately I was looking up EBV transformation of lymphocytes and not frisking the wookie.

There aren't many exceptions to the rule that DM-PK expansion is methylated in the native lymphocytes and unmethylated in the lymphoblastoids, are there? :blink:

Let the Yeti Lead! :rolleyes:

damn blastoids!

Actually I need to induce apoptosis in EBV transformed B lymphocytes, which, of course, are resistant to apoptosis, otherwise they wouldn't be transformed.

You have to be nuts to study DM-PK expansion.

hmmm, latent membrane protein....

I believe that's expressed by nepalese yeti and used as a mechanism to shed water/snow/sleet from the fur. But how that relates to EBV....

Lymphoctye spill Aisle 12...we need a clean up!

Naples, Florida, but as far as how excited ... very! It's a beach and that's about all I'm up to ... and did I say it was a business trip? That means fancy hotel, fancy dinners, :) Adam "works" during the day, I hang out at the pool and spa!

Yay! This'll be grrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat!!!

.... I have a picture of my great-grandmother in a July 4th parade dated 1904!

I'm not sure it's ethical to make such statements on Avatar Day, and not make yours a granny-tar for an hour or 2. :P

All right, must go, heading to the pub with the girls. Ho hum. The girls will be fun, but there are pretty much almost NEVER any cute guys.......harrrumph. :angry:

Am I deja-vu-ing or was this said a while back?

Ahh yes it WAS said and was counter-predictive!! that's a word isn't it?

:lol: "EXTRA!EXTRA! DelToro Spotted with MYSTERY WOMAN! " :lol::lol:

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
