. . ..we spent the rest of the day decorating our office for Christmas, making snowflakes out of tin paper and hanging things. Making a Christmas mural....what a wonderful Friday. The snow falling outside really got us into the spirit.

You snow-bound folks do have some advantages, holiday-spirit-wise.

Nah, the other one. Tennis coach wasn't French? Or was he the Bulgarian .. . ... <_<

Whoa...Well, this piece also claims that yetis are "impervious to all firepower, with the exception of napalm", which we now know is completely false. So the accuracy of these claims must be questioned. Although at times, I have noticed with our yeti a passing resemblance to Oprah...

Gad, here I am, on a snowy Saturday morning, my big weekend newspaper waiting at the kitchen table, and I sit reading uncyclopedia articles on the nature of yetis...

What has become of me? :lol::lol::rolleyes:

well this is the first year that we are having winter weather this early. Our weather has been changing the last few years, milder winters, very little snow. This year it seems like we are going to a winter.

Okay, here are some things to mull over, Jess:

I have spoken with my DH, who is an insurance adjuster. He laughed quietly and shook his head when I told him about the possible insurance claim that could happen with your lab.

He's informed me that in his job experience with the big insurance companies up here, the adjusters and underwriters know well the "BS" claims (bevy of scientists), as they are a group who submit countless commercial property claims without ever reading the company polices.

There are many exclusionary clauses for laboratories, and unfortunately, practically ANYTHING involving a yeti is not covered. Interior structural damage caused by these creatures will be denied, unless a floater is written into the policy (he says with a chuckle, "BSes NEVER think about extra coverage..it ain't about theories or unknowns, so it doesn't make their radar screens".

There is usually an allowable amount claimable for smoke, water and interior damage inflicted by "smoldering yaks, clowns and Big Bird" (I'm quoting directly from the copy of a standard commercial property policy, here), so no luck, Jess...

I HATE being a bearer of bad news... :(

BTW, any new...ears happening?

Ok so I am sitting here with my foot up....seems it is a bit sore from a little spill I took 2 nights ago. So sore today that walking is a chore....we were supposed to be getting a Christmas tree today and decorating...

So here is the background on the spill. The other night I had been in my bathtub reading and I got out and let the water out and left. A little while later in a hurry, I ran in there to take a shower. Well, I must have had water on the floor from before and I literally fell on my butt. I twisted my ankle hitting the toliet and hit my head when I hit the floor. It was a sight....let me tell you.

Uh....Amanda, why the need for a bath and a shower during the same evening, with the shower being something needed suddenly and quite hurried?

What's goin' on over there?...

OUCH!!!! (but I must commend you on your cleanliness! ;) )

Hope it eases up soon.

I too am supposed to be putting the decorations up today <_< .......got the tree out.....but sort of lost interest after that.. :blink: *Yawn*

However, I did share a cup of tea and a chin wag with the people who live in the cupboard under the stairs (where the xmas tree lives the rest of the year)

Bit of a nothing day really.........cold, dark and rainy <_<

I take a shower to wash my hair and that. It is too cold here in the mornings to be taking a shower and then leaving for work.

The shower was being hurried because we were getting ready to watch a movie that night and I didn't realize how late it had gotten.

I don't do showers and baths every night, it was just one of those nasty stormy days and a warm bath seemed so relaxing.

:) I am weird!

Oh! How ARE your lovely friends under the stairs? They must miss Yeti. Did you tell them of the smoldering science mis-hap? Probably best not to........

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      I assume that you already know that genetic testing for celiac disease cannot be used to confirm a celiac diagnosis. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. It can be used to rule out celiac disease with a high degree of confidence, however, in the case where the genetic testing is negative for the genes. Until and unless you are actually diagnosed with celiac disease I would not raise this as an issue with family. However, if you are diagnosed with celiac disease through blood antibody testing and/or endoscopy with positive biopsy I would suggest you encourage first degree relatives to also purse testing because there is a significant chance (somewhere betwee 10% and almost 50%, depending on which studies you reference) that they will also have or will develop active celiac disease. Often, there are symptoms are absent or very minor until damage to the small bowel lining or other body systems becomes significant so be prepared that they may blow you off. We call this "silent celiac disease".

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      If you were off gluten for two months that would have been long enough to invalidate the celiac blood antibody testing. Many people make the same mistake. They experiment with the gluten free diet before seeking formal testing. Once you remove gluten from the diet the antibodies stop being produced and those that are already in circulation begin to be removed and often drop below detectable levels. To pursue valid testing for celiac disease you would need to resume gluten consumption equivalent to the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for at least two weeks, preferably longer. These are the most recent guidelines for the "gluten challenge". Without formal testing there is no way to distinguish between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity since their symptoms overlap. However, celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small bowel lining, not true of gluten sensitivity. There is no test available for gluten sensitivity so celiac disease must first be ruled out. By the way, elevated liver enzymes was what led to my celiac diagnosis almost 25 years ago.

      Then it does not seem to me that a gluten-related disorder is at the heart of your problems, unless that is, you have refractory celiac disease. But you did not answer my question about how long you had been eating gluten free before you had the blood antibody test for celiac disease done.
