Robotics update:

Did pretty good today. 10th out of 56 with 2 more matches to go tomorrow. Had the high scor of the day at 90 points but then someone got 96. Had one round where we were down one of the 3 robots, plus the other robot on our alliance didn't run.

We won a judge decided award tonight! The Control Award! Something about the people with the silver hats controlling the game.

I misread the standings of the mushers in the Iditarod a couple of days ago - - thinking Michelle was in ninth, I was over the moon, but she was really in TWENTY-ninth, having started in the 39 spot. Now she's in nineteenth, so beginning to steadily move up. .. .she's still got 15 dogs pulling, which is terrific.. .. .... B)

Fun should always be the goal. Even making it as far as you did is amazing. Those kids are amazing (as is the parental chaperon).

Horrific earthquake on the northeast coast of Japan that has massive tsunami warnings affecting all countries of the Pacific Rim.. . . ..

I'm thinking immediately of our Rah-shyellle, who just got to Hawaii and would have been evacuated a few hours ago... . . ...the waves are expected to hit there within the next half-hour..... . . ..are Soooozle and Jooodie on or near the coast? Don't believe so... . . ....Shrooomie, youse guys are bracing for another bit of earthly sublimity, as are the Aussies....

Gawd, so many potentially effected.. . . . ..

Gnick, you're safe way over and up there! And I am, but my relatives out in Victoria have likely evacuated...

Praying for all of you on the West Coast and Canada (and of course Japan). It boggles the mind how muchdestruction can happen in a matter of moments!!!!!

Love and prayers to all- stay safe!!!!!

Made it to Utah. Went OT the little grocery - no hard cider! No wine! No wodka! Only glutinous beer! Couldn't find a liqour store anywhere. Probably wasn't open on Sun night anyway!

Inconsiderate Hub is drinking Polygamy Porter. It's motto: why have just one?

That's the problem with Utah - you have to find a state-run liquor store ---- when it's open :ph34r: On our trip to the high southwest spent time in the boondocks of Utah, and on the Navajo reservation (where there wasn't even beer - this was in our glutinous days), and got quite thirsty. :P

Jestgar Rising Star

mmm yes. You need to stock up in Colorado before you get there.

We was coming the other way, across US 50, and there wasn't much there either :unsure: - the loneliest road in the U. S. of A ('cept we ran into a traffic jam cos some airforce pilot had accidentally dropped "da bom" on the roadside. :blink: (unexploded)

The Navaho Nation is dry. It covers more than half of Arizona and parts of other neighboring states.

Utah might as well be dry. The laws there are very restrictive.

BYOB.

      Hi I've been told I need a MRI on my bowels , I was booked for a colonoscopy, but because of my sever back issues and trapped nerve it can't be done , the nurse told me I will have to have a manitol drink a hour before the scan , I'm just a bit worried has I have issues with sweeteners like even a little,  I get a weird throat and ears and I've read it is a similar substance , not sure if anyone has had one of these scans or could give me some advise on the drink prep thanks in advance 😄

      Ok thank you.  Me either

      Hi all ! Can a celiac attack be so intense that it causes your entire body to work in reverse? Meaning really bad pain,  neuropathy and muscle,  jaw pain,  the stomach issues , Horrible anxiety and confusion??  I had a Tums and you would think I ate poison. My jaw and stomach did not like it . Not the norm for me. Things that are simple are just out of control. Anyone ever have this happen??  I'm trying to figure out what I ate or did to bring on a celiac like attack. I had an idea before but yesterday I didn't have any gluten unless it was in a medication ?! Any positive suggestions ??  Thank you

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.      
    • trents
      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.
