Our daughter, in Lafayette, got her power back last night and never lost water or sewage at all. They did get a lot of wind damage in the area, but none to her apartment complex.

So glad you are doing OK

My friends are in Lafayette so happy to hear this also

Thanks Judy

I.K.E......Corrumba!! He is already a Cat.3 and nothing but warm open water to let him get stronger. Aiming directly for Florida.....so I am watching closely to see what this B*s*t*rd is going to do. :angry:

I'll let you know when they get back to 'normal' after Katrina! :rolleyes:

We are really fine, only very minor wind damage.

Last night we had another scare with all of the flash flooding and tornado warnings in the area. A tornado hit just north of here and there was an an emergency evac of a neighboring town, due to flash flooding. These rain bands won't go away and rivers and bayous were topping over.

On a more disgusting note.......The worst things are that we still can't bathe, wash clothes, do dishes or flush (the last being #1 on the list.)

We can flush! Perfect timing, too. I ate some hummus that had 'natural flavors' in it. I am so good about things like that, I must've skipped right over it when I read the ingredients. Boy am I paying for it now. All 10 people here (we are my family's evacuation shelter) have been super careful not to cc me and I did it to myself!

Thank goodness we can flush, bathe etc. We have been washing clothes and dishes all day!

My sister and my brother (plus my sis-in-law and their two kids) just found out their power, water and sewage are back up, so they will clear out tomorrow morning. My parents still do not have power or phones, so they'll be here a while longer.

Oh and, what the bleep is Ike doing?????

Hanna's eye just passed here. It's blowing like a son-of-a-gun with Soundside flooding.

I'm not looking forward to the yard clean-up in 98% humidity. :angry:

We're in CT, waiting for the bloody MONSOON they've been promising. It's rather sunny out, actually, although abysmally humid and hot. I guess it's coming a day or so later than they thought. Freaking weatherpeople. The only profession on earth where you get to be wrong all the time and they still pay you.

Hey, cut the weatherman some slack --- he's also got the only job where you try to predict the unpredictable. :D

Stockbroker's do the same thing. Imagine if they were wrong as often?

It's easy to be a weatherman in New Orleans in the summer. Every day is the same. Hot, 100% humidity and 75% chance of afternoon showers. In September it's exactly the same, but add in....and a 50% chance of hurricane force winds along with flash flooding.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      By yellowstone · Posted

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
