From a home schooling mom to everybody... oh, oh, I'm on the wrong forum :huh: - what the heck. You all will have fun with this too :lol: .

Here's a link to a map of the Middle East - can you put the names in the correct place?

This reminds me of what is happening over there.

:o Say yes to civil liberties, human rights, democracy and justice for all!

(and if you live over there... you have to do a map of the 50 states)

(and, yes, I'm a Canuk and no, I couldn't do the whole 50 either)

As a side.. Prayers for Japan.. there just are no words..

We sat around in a coffee bar in New Zealand one night when I was 19, trying to come up with the names of all 50, let alone where they were :o

Well, I sure had fun doing this Middle Eastern map..thanks, "Mom"!! I put in Armenia, since my grandparents came from there, and the big countries I knew, for sure first...then had to struggle a bit, but can proudly say I did it in about 4- 5 minutes...yippee for me!!

....as for the US, I probably would have a struggle with the states in the middle...LOL LOL

and yes, I am American.... :unsure:

thanks for the brain exercise, Etta!

I found a countries one, you have to type in the names and it puts them on the map for you, so it's more remembering than knowing where they are: Open Original Shared Link

(I got 103 out of 195 - lots of room for improvement!)

And this one for US states: Open Original Shared Link

And yes, I spent waaaaaay too much time improving my speed on the states one. I am such a nerd for quizes. You created a monster, posting the Middle Eastern one :-)

      Healthy diet leading to terrible bloating

Grains can contribute important nutrients to the diet and are a relatively inexpensive food energy sources.

      Osteoporosis: Does the body start rebuilding bones after starting a gluten-free diet?

      While it's true that lifting heavy weights is a good bone builder, it may not be advisable for those with certain medical conditions like heart disease, arthritis and for the elderly or for those who don't have access to the equipment. Bone building drugs like Fosamax slow down the disposal of worn out osteoclasts (bone cells) and so help maintain/restore...

      Healthy diet leading to terrible bloating

      By cristiana · Posted

      Quick update.  I saw the title of this thread and forgot that I'd actually started it!  Oh dear! It seems my new healthy diet was the cause of these symptoms,  I had a clear colonoscopy, thankfully. Now I know what it is I shall try to resume the healthy diet - the symptoms are annoying rather than painful, and I think it was doing me a lot of good, I certainly lost some pounds around the waistline (pity they piled back on again at Christmas!)

      Stegosaurus, One size doesn't fit all. Most celiacs do fine with oats and other non-gluten cereal grains. Grains can contribute important nutrients to the diet and are a relatively inexpensive food energy sources. I don't agree with the position that all celiacs should eliminate all grains from their diet. This line of thinking has been promoted for years by books like Dangerous Grains which make the case on logic rather than actual real world data. Like many biological phenomenon, what would seem to be logical doesn't pan out to be true in the real world.  But if you are one of those in the minority of celiacs who cannot tolerate cereal grains at all, I'm glad that you were able to sort that out.

      While it's true that lifting heavy weights is a good bone builder, it may not be advisable for those with certain medical conditions like heart disease, arthritis and for the elderly or for those who don't have access to the equipment.  Bone building drugs like Fosamax slow down the disposal of worn out osteoclasts (bone cells) and so help maintain/restore bone density as seen in scans but because the retained cells are no longer healthy, the process may contribute less to actual bone strength than healthy cells would.
