So a few days ago I set you all a Mystery Object of the Week quiz, well today is the big reveal.
While there were some interesting guesses (thanks Adrian), no one got it right. It is in fact a static grass applicator -- an example of the grass can be seen to the left, and I've blogged about static grass in more detail on my railway modelling blog.
Essentially this specific applicator is the handle and electronics from a fly swatter with the swatting bit replaced by a tea strainer and a crocodile clip on the end of a wire. (it's easy to build although I bought mine from eBay) Pressing the button causes a static field to be setup between the tea strainer and the crocodile clip so when the grass fibres fall out of the tea strainer they align vertically to produce the grass. What you don't want to do, however, is let the crocodile clip and the tea strainer touch as the rather large amount of stored electricity, that would normally be used to kill a fly, gets released with a bang and a flash of light -- certainly something you don't want to get too close to!
Tales from an English Coffee DrinkerI drink a lot of coffee (black no sugar), so much so that no matter what I'm doing I usually have a cup on hand. However, this isn't a blog just about coffee -- it's about anything I find interesting!

Midtown Raleigh News
Raleigh City Council panel backs new limits on road races
Streets around downtown and Hillsborough Street could see fewer road races under controversial new restrictions that drew support from Raleigh City Council members Tuesday.
A council committee voted unanimously to lower the annual race cap from 100 events to 95 – just a few more than the 91 already on the calendar. The plan would also ban existing races from closing streets in the same neighborhoods on back-to-back weekends, forcing some races to change dates or locations.
No additional races would be allowed in neighborhoods around downtown and Hillsborough Street: Mordecai, Oakwood, Boylan Heights, University Park and Cameron Park. Businesses and residents there have complained that frequent roadblocks make it difficult to get around and hurt shops and restaurants.
"It seems like we need some flexibility in terms of the access to the streets, or take it somewhere else," said Arthur Gordon, who owns the Irregardless Cafe on Morgan Street.
Sunday morning races often block Hillsborough Street, which creates a hurdle for restaurant customers. Brunch is usually one of the busiest meals for the Irregardless. "It drops the volume of my business by almost a third," Gordon said.
The new policy would still allow up to two street closures a month along Hillsborough and other popular race routes. But many race organizers think the rules are too restrictive because many established charity runs will have to compete for prime dates and courses.
"Having a random drawing, if it cannot be negotiated with the respective race directors, is a poor solution for established races," Paula O'Neal, of RunRaleigh Races, wrote to the council. "I know some of these races are in high-impact areas, but has there even been any research about specific complaints? The majority of complaints about road races were targeted at the Color Run and Rock & Roll Raleigh."
Neighborhood survey
The University Park neighborhood, which borders Hillsborough, recently surveyed 165 of its residents. Almost 80 percent said they've been affected by race-related traffic hassles, but only 47 percent said the area currently has too many races.
Kara Strang organizes the annual Walk to Defeat ALS in April, and her event would lose its date under the policy because it takes place the weekend before the Rock 'n' Roll Marathon. "The other option is you could bump the Rock 'n' Roll Marathon to another route," she said.
Councilwoman Mary-Ann Baldwin said that's not possible because the marathon has a multi-year contract with Raleigh.
Local race organizers want similar contracts to guarantee dates and locations. They say it would help attract sponsors, but city special events coordinator Derrick Remer said contracts are only justified by "significant economic development impacts of major national events."
Increased fees
Other aspects of the new policy have also drawn outcry from race directors. They say increased fees – ranging from $200 to $350 per event – would take a chunk out of charity fundraisers. Remer said the fees would cover about half the $125,000 annual cost of running the city's new special events office.
The policy does offer a reduced fee of $50 for small neighborhood events. Remer said smaller races could also be directed to new 5k courses being developed at the N.C. Museum of Art park and Walnut Creek Park.
The city will also drop the requirement that residents along race routes get notified by first-class mail. The postcard notices can come through bulk mail, which is cheaper. "We don't care how they get there as long as they get there two weeks in advance," Remer said.
The full City Council will take a final vote on the new race policy at its next meeting Sept. 2. Councilman Wayne Maiorano said the restrictions will inevitably create some heartburn as Raleigh balances the growing popularity of races with the concerns of neighbors and businesses.
"There's going to be a little pain in the process as we learn to change and adapt," he said.


text: Wellington - Injured All Blacks flyhalf Beauden Barrett has been ruled out of Saturday's third Test against France in Dunedin, while centre Sonny Bill Williams is in line for his first appearance of the series. Assistant coach Ian Foster said on Tuesday that neither Barrett nor loose forward Vaea Fifita, who also received a head knock in the All Blacks' 26-11 win in the second Test last weekend, would be considered. Flank Liam Squire, who suffered a shoulder injury, was listed as an "unlikely" starter. But on the positive side Williams is in the frame after missing the first two Tests following knee surgery. Foster said the selectors had held a "lively" conversation about the makeup of the dead rubber third Test side which will be released on Thursday. "But we go in with a rough sketch as a selection group and we basically have an idea of where we are going. This has been a good one, sorting this one (team) out," he said. Playmaker Barrett was taken from the field in the 12th minute of the first Test and failed a concussion test after crashing head first to the ground following a mid-air collision with France fullback Benjamin Fall. Fall was sent off although a judicial panel later cleared him and erased the red card from his record, ruling his actions were neither deliberate nor reckless. Williams, meanwhile, was likely to be in the third Test line-up after making a quicker-than-expected recovery and being told at a meeting with coaches and medical staff that the surgery was a success. "The coach turned to the doctor and said 'well, is he a chance of playing in the third Test, or being available for selection?' And the doc said 'yeah, but he has to come into camp'," Williams said. "So he looked at me and said 'you're in camp'."

About the Designer
Eero Aarnio
Considered as one of the most innovative designers of his generation, Eero Aarnio was born in Helsinki, Finland in 1932. Graduating from the Institute of Industrial Arts in his hometown, Aarnio did not take long to cause shockwaves with his stunning vision of Modernist furniture design.
Inspired by nature and organic shapes, Aarnio's designs became an essential aspect of 1960s popular culture. The Finn's chair designs created a unique furniture experience that continues to be celebrated by critics and famous Modern Art Museums to this day. Aarnio managed to capture the psychedelic Pop Art movement of the 1960s and blend it with a cutting edge yet signature style.
Eero Aarnio's designs have taken on a life of their own and heavily feature on the big screen, especially within science-fiction motion pictures. A crowning glory for the Helsinki-born designer was his awarding of the prestigious American Industrial Design award in 1968.

This world is full opportunities. God given us knowledge , talents , gifts , and power over earth. We can have all the knowledge in the world. We could have amazing talent. We could have extraordinary gifts. We could have all of theses things , but what difference would it make if we didn't put it towards God's purpose for our lives.
People at times use their talents and gifts for their benefit instead of God's. We always want something whether it be money or praise for our accomplishments. We don't realize these accomplishments are not ours to begin with .
God gave us gifts, talents , and a creative mind. He wanted all of us to be useful to His kingdom. He wants us to create things that better the world and spread his love.
In our generation we use social media all day long. We constantly scrolling up and down looking at new trends. With the images we find on social media it has us believing that nothing Godly can come from it.
What if we change the images of what people see in a Day?
What if Christians started making the new trends?
What if Christians became as creative as Mark Zuckerberg ?
And my last question…
Why do Christians limited themselves?
We have the power to take something that is of this world and have a positive impact on it. We say the scripture " I can do all things through Christ who Strengthens me" . But do we put it into action? If we can put God's purpose first with our gifts , talents , and the creative mind God gave us we could make a great difference in the world.

An Evidence Review of the Health Effects of Marijuana
Marijuana use can have serious health risks. However, whether smoking or otherwise consuming marijuana has therapeutic benefits that outweigh its health risks is still an open question that science has not fully answered. To begin to address this question, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), along with 14 other sponsors, supported the development of a consensus report through the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine on the health effects of marijuana. To accelerate progress on the report, the CDC Foundation became involved in the project and partnered with the public and private sectors to provide additional support.
The report, which involved a review of existing evidence regarding the health effects of using marijuana, was released publicly yesterday. In the report are nearly 100 conclusions related to the health effects of marijuana use as well as recommendations put forward for an agenda to help expand and improve marijuana research efforts and better inform future public health decisions.
The report by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine provides important perspective on the health effects of marijuana, and the CDC Foundation is pleased to have helped support this effort that can be used as a guide for additional research. We greatly appreciate the donors who through the CDC Foundation provided additional support for this effort.

Forget a haunted house, binging "Halloween" or watching the Jets. The scariest thing this fall is at Six Flags.
The amusement park is seeking six individuals to spend 30 hours each at its St. Louis location from October 13th to the 14th, because...well, we're not sure why. Apparently entertainment is hard to come by in the Midwest.
What do you get for completing such a task? According to the park, "Two 2019 Gold Season passes, a Fright Fest package that includes two VIP Haunted House passes and a ticket for two on the Freak Train, as well as $300. If there is more than one winner, the $300 will be awarded by random drawing."
Can you imagine spending 30 hours in a coffin and getting bupkis? Then again, if you're the type of person to sign up for this type of stunt, common sense waved bye-bye to you long ago.
It's still not clear if this is supposed to scare attendees or the participants themselves. Frankly, the thought of spending any time at all at a Six Flags just sent chills up our spine.

Biorelevant Media
This biorelevant medium simulates the fluid found in the small intestine before a meal. The small intestine is the site of absorption for oral dosage forms.
It is therefore very important to use biorelevant dissolution tests to get a more accurate idea of how much drug is likely to be absorbed in vivo.
This biorelevant medium replicates the fluid found in an empty stomach. It's the first point of contact for immediate release oral dosage forms. Testing in it allows the user to get a clearer understanding of how much drug will go into solution before passing into the small intestine.
FeSSIF simulates small intestinal fluid after food. The small intestine is the main site of absorption of the drug so it is vital to understand how the presence of food may influence its behaviour.
By performing biorelevant dissolution tests the user can get a much better idea of possible food effects on the drug and therefore how much is likely to be absorbed in vivo.
FeSSGF represents gastric fluid after a meal. The fed state compared to the fasted state can massively change the behaviour of a drug.
It's essential to test both generic and NCE test products to gain an understanding of the food effects on the dissolution of a drug.

Hello, Since I got a new laptop windows 7 home pre 64 bit, it's been great, I think since I needed to install software for my nokia mobile, somehow it's been changed to 32 bit and have noticed that the system runs slower, really pivved me off, have tried to restore but will not go back as far as the installation of nokia software, please could someone help me changed it back to 64 bit please.
Software installation can't change an operating system. You have to manually reinstall it to do that. Check to see if there is a 64 bit application for that phone. You can run 32 bit apps on a 64 bit system, so that's not a problem. You can always uninstall the software to see if it makes a difference.
You may just need to do a disk clean up. If you uninstall the software and it runs better, check Nokia's website, they may have an updated version of the software available (32 bit is not a problem, but Windows 7 compatibility may be).
You have to be a little bit crazy to keep you from going insane.
Right click on your "My Computer" icon and select properties. In the system area about half way down the screen what does it say next to system type?

Named GP
Every patient has a named GP responsible for overseeing their care. If you are unsure who your named GP is please ask.
Family & Friends Test (FFT)
PLEASE COMPLETE OUR PATIENT SURVEY using the link below.
Changes to our On-line Services
Out of Hours
To contact a doctor when the surgery is closed at weekends and between the hours of 6.30 pm and 8.00 am Monday to Friday, please telephone NHS 111 (dial 111 from your phone for free) and your call will automatically be forwarded to the Somerset Out of Hours Medical Service
Telephone Advice
If you need to speak to a doctor or nurse on the telephone, please telephone (Williton 632701) and speak to the Healthcare Co-ordinator about your needs. We do not interrupt GP consultations except in an emergency.
Your medical record is held with the GP Practice with which you are registered. It contains general information about you, including your name, address, date of birth and details about the clinical care you have received throughout your lifetime. This record has been built up between yourself and your doctor. Your GP is responsible for the accuracy and safe keeping of your medical record. If you move to another area or change your GP, your medical records are sent to your new practice. The NHS Central Register for England & Wales only contains basic personal details of all patients registered with a GP, the register does not contain clinical information.
It is important that you know your personal data is protected, as your medical records are increasingly stored electronically on computers. The practice uses a remote hosted system called EMIS Web. All patient data is encrypted and sent electronically over the secure NHS N3 network (not the internet) to the hosted secure EMIS data centre which is compliant with rigorous ISO standards. As the record is held simultaneously on the practice server and the EMIS data centre, if either system fails, then the other system will be available and the record will be protected offering greater security and functionality.
The practice controls access to individual patient records and only authorised users within our team can view your personal medical record. In most circumstances patient consent must be sought before information can routinely be shared with any other organisation and more information can be found on that in the following sections.
You have a right to know how we use your medical information and to keep your personal health information confidential between yourself and your doctor should you so choose. This applies to everyone over the age of 16 years and in certain cases, to those under 16. The law does impose a few exceptions to the rule. Very sensitive, personal information is strictly controlled by the law and anyone who receives information about you is under a legal duty to keep it confidential.
Please review the practice's FAIR PROCESSING / PRIVACY NOTICE by following the link below.
Fair Processing / Privacy Notice.
We keep information and details of the care you have received because it may be needed if we see you again. You may be receiving care from other people as well as the NHS and in order to work together for your benefit we may need to share some information about you. We only ever pass on information if people have a genuine need for it in your and everyone else's interests. Wherever possible, we remove details which identify you.
We also use information we hold to help us protect the health of the public generally; to assist with the planning of NHS services to ensure that they run efficiently and meet patient needs in the future; to prepare statistics on NHS performance and activity; to educate medical staff and to carry out health research for the benefit of everyone. We also use the information to review the care that we provide to make sure that it is of the highest standard and to investigate complaints or legal claims.
Your GP is required to share elements of your medical record, including some confidential personal and medical information, with the Health and Social Care Information Centre (HSCIC) and NHS England . Where the NHS deems it appropriate, data will be automatically extracted electronically from the practice computer system then linked with other data extracts from hospitals and social care records, in order to establish amalgamated health data records which do not currently exist. Your postcode or your NHS number will be used to link your records in a secure system. This data can then be used by the NHS for health planning or potentially, where appropriate, made available in an anonymised format to researchers outside of the NHS for health development. Sharing information should improve health and care outcomes for all patients; helping to improve the way that health care is delivered, improving services offered by the NHS and carrying out research into the treatments that can be offered for different diseases and illnesses.
If you are happy for your information to be used in this way you do not need to do anything, as the Practice is routinely required to permit the bulk extraction of this information upon receipt of approved requests. However, individual patients may instruct their Practice to stop the transfer of their practice based data where they are not happy to share this information. For more details, including how to opt out of your information being used for this purpose, please ask the receptionist for a copy of the Health & Social Care Information Centre patient leaflet 'How information about you helps us to provide better care'.
Our doctors, practice nurses, community nurses, midwives and health visitors all have access to the medical records of their patients. Other practice staff have limited access to your medical records. They need to notify the Health Authority of registration and claim details and carry out various filing tasks. By asking for certain information, you are giving your permission for a member of staff to look in your records.
Some information held about you may be shared with other people involved in your health care, eg doctors, nurses, therapists and technicians involved in the treatment or investigation of your medical problems.
We have to inform Health Authorities of patient registration changes, additions (including births) and deletions. We share limited information with them in order to help organise national health programmes (such as childhood immunisations, cervical smears and breast screening) and to report on certain procedures undertaken for which we are paid to perform.
We are required by lay to notify the Government of certain infectious diseases (eg meningitis, measles but not AIDS) for public health reasons. Law Courts can insist that GPs disclose medical records to them. Solicitors often ask for medical records and such requests must be accompanied by the patient's signed consent for us to disclose information.
Social Services & the Benefits Agency may, with the patient's consent, require medical reports from time to time to ensure the continuation of benefit payments or other support.
With a patient's consent, Life Insurance Companies & Potential Employers often ask for medical records from prospective clients / employees. GPs must disclose all relevant medical conditions, unless you ask us not to, in which case the insurance company will be advised that we have been instructed not to make a full disclosure.
You are entitled by law to have access to your medical records. If you wish to see your records please ask for a copy of our Access to Records leaflet or contact the Practice Manager for advice. All requests to view records should be made in writing to the surgery.
We will not disclose any medical information about you or give your test results over the phone unless we are absolutely sure that it is you. We will not disclose medical information to your family, friends or colleagues unless we have your consent to do so.
Please do not ask our staff to disclose any details at all about patients over the phone, they are instructed to protect your privacy. Help us to meet your medical records accurate by informing us of any change in your name, address, or marital status and by ensuring that we have full details of your full medical history.
Everyone working for the NHS has a legal, ethical and contractual duty to protect your privacy and keep information about you confidential. The doctor - patient relationship sits at the heart of good practice and is based on mutual trust and confidence. If you have any further queries, comments or complaints about your medical records, then please contact the Practice Manager or speak to your GP.

Tubes has his first driving lesson with RED
Tubes has had his first driving lesson! Check out some footage from it in the video below.
The popular TV presenter from Soccer AM has taken to the wheel for the first time in a very long while with RED Driving School and his driving instructor, Jean-Pierre, has decided to kick off his training with 'moving off and stopping'.
Hoping to pass his driving test before the European Championships so that he can follow the Home Nations all the way to France next June, and maintaining a 'No Pass, No Euros' policy, Tubes is certain he's got what it takes.
Despite the lesson getting off to a shaky start with Tubes failing to find the ignition, he managed to pull through and master the stop and start by the end.
John Barnes MBE, England and Liverpool legend, accompanied Tubes on his first lesson and provided assistance along the way.
When asked by Tubes for some advice prior to his lesson to calm his nerves, John, who passed his test on the third time, replied: 'You should be nervous – I've played in World Cups and FA Cup Finals but the most nerve-wracking experience I ever had was learning to drive.'
Barnes then went on to reveal that Liverpool F.C.'s worst driver was Alan Hanson, telling of how he didn't even know how to change gear so just drove in fourth gear all the time.
A video of Tubes' second lesson will be posted in a couple of weeks' time. We will announce this on the RED Facebook and Twitter page, so stay tuned!

Nancy Castaldo's incredible The Story of Seeds: From Mendel's Garden to Your Plate, and How There's More of Less to Eat Around the World (Harcourt Brace and Company) is much more than a mere non-fictional account of cross-pollination and heirloom tomatoes (although she does explain these topics in a logical and comprehensive way). Folks, this book is a call to ACTION and we'd best be heeding that call.
Did you know that, throughout history, people have risked their lives to protect seeds? I mean, like, they died for the cause. And, that seeds are being exploited through biopiracy, and that even Hitler was in on the seed wars, and that there is plenty seedy trouble brewing today? Download the guide to get a sense of rich content covered in The Story of Seeds: From Mendel's Garden to Your Plate, and How There's More of Less to Eat Around the World. It's pretty darned amazing, I tell you.
This is exactly the type of text that my upper-elementary Montessori students would have loved. Our class was comprised of young activists, kids that cared about the environment, animal rights, and non-violence. I imagine that, after reading Castaldo's fine work, we'd be joining heads to find a way to make a difference.
We'd become seed defenders.
I'm sure of it.

High Country Fall Foliage Report – Boone, NC
Fall Foliage Report for the High Country, Boone, Blowing Rock and The Blue Ridge Parkway.
Fall Foliage is in full swing here in the high country, with many areas showing brilliant reds, golds and yellows. The earlier part of the change is my favorite time. It seems like the colors are typically more brilliant and even though the valleys haven't quite turned, I like the beautiful greens mixed in with all the colors. It creates some contrast to highlight those brilliant colors.
I take the Parkway home every day after work, even when work doesn't take me in that direction… I see that it does. It's a nice way to decompress from the day and catch the beauty that I call home. Before I give the Fall Leaf Report, I should mention that I've noticed uniformed rangers in marked vehicles at the gated areas on the Blue Ridge Parkway over the last couple of days.
I'm not exactly sure what that means… maybe they know something we don't.
The Parkway is still open to vehicle traffic and the overlooks are all open. Only the manned areas like campgrounds, Moses Cone, Price Park, etc… are closed for the time being.
Now, for that Fall Foliage Report!
Overall, the Parkway is showing good color in the Moses Cone through Linn Cove Viaduct areas. Areas along the road are simply stunning. Showing great fall foliage. Down in the creek bed areas of Boone Fork and Wilson Creek watershed are turning nicely. The areas right at water level are close to peak. Photographers, don't wait to photograph the lakes… one good wind usually will take them down overnight!
The Viaduct area is good, but spotty, my guess is that early in the week will be peak. Higher areas like Rough Ridge, Grandfather Mtn. and the Boone Bowl(Cragway Trail) are in full color. Some of the most brilliant color I have seen yet has been at the Cragway Trail and Boone Fork Creek. Access this from the Boone Fork Parking area and follow the signs.
Areas like Beacon Heights, Crabtree Falls and Price Park will be quick to follow. Around the middle to end of next week, we will begin to loose a little color up top and the winds will take their toll, but the color will begin to make it's trek down the ridge lines into the valleys. This is a favorite time for most as the valleys will be a blaze in fantastic color! Pull up to almost any overlook and get your camera ready for the breathtaking view before you.
We hope your fall is a great one and please don't hesitate to contact us for additional information. Charge those batteries and get on out there. Happy Shooting!

My first two questions when my gastroenterologist told me I had fructose malabsorption were:
- What is fructose malabsorption?
- How did I get it?
I hardly ate sweets and did not drink soda or juices, I more often than not ate home cooked meals made from healthy and fresh ingredients, and when I purchased prepared or processed foods, I made sure they had no added sugar. I was confused why fructose absorption was the source of my problem when I hardly ate it.
The answer to my first question was pretty straightforward. Fructose is a simple sugar found in natural foods like fruits and honey and in processed foods in forms such as high fructose corn syrup and crystalline fructose. Once eaten, fructose moves to the small intestine where through the aid of protein transporters, it is absorbed into the bloodstream, ends up in the liver where it is metabolized and is then used by our organs. Fructose malabsorption, a digestive disorder that affects 30-40% of the population, occurs when fructose is unable to be absorbed in the small intestine and instead moves along to the large intestine. This can lead to the import of water into the intestinal lumen and the bacteria present in the intestine feeds off the fructose and may produce hydrogen, methane, carbon dioxide, and fatty acids. This can lead to diarrhea, bloating, and gas. Other symptoms may include cramping, nausea, joint pains, fatigue, brain fog, depression, and possible malnutrition.
The answer to my second question provided by my gastroenterologist was that the cause for fructose malabsorption is not known. So I started speculating. Was it due to the low-fat diet I was on during college and maybe I instead ate too many carbs, or did my digestive system stop processing sugars properly during graduate school when I was on the low carb diet, and did being vegetarian and eating soy based products which have vital wheat gluten (wheat has fructans = chains of fructose with a glucose at the end) do me in? In the end, I decided to look at the current research to try and gain a better understanding of what might be causing fructose malabsorption.
What is known:
- The GLUT5, protein transporter:
- Fructose is absorbed from the small intestine into the bloodstream mainly through a protein transporter called GLUT5. When scientists remove GLUT5 from mice, there is less fructose absorbed and the mice exhibit symptoms of fructose malabsorption including bloating and gas. However, no mutations in GLUT5 have been identified in patients with fructose malabsorption.
- GLUT5 production is low in infants. The theory is that throughout evolution, infants were not fed fruit until after they were weaned so GLUT5 was not needed until then. The amount of GLUT5 present in the small intestine increases with age, which correlates with the increase of fructose in our diets. One issue is that today, some infants are given fruit juice to drink and the high amounts of fructose without the presence of GLUT5 may result in infants having diarrhea and other related symptoms.
- Our inability to absorb unlimited amounts of fructose may be due to the fact that there is a ceiling to how much GLUT5 our intestines can produce. Studies have shown that 50% of the U.S. may have difficulty absorbing 25g of fructose in one sitting and 80% of the U.S. has trouble absorbing 50g of fructose at once. To provide a baseline, one 16 oz bottle of apple juice and a 22 oz bottle of soda may contain more than 30g of fructose. Today, the average consumption of fructose in the U.S. is 49g per day and 10% ingest 75g per day. An additional interesting fact and an indication of how we are currently eating is that the amount of fructose we are getting from fruit has decreased from 35% in 1978 to 16% today.
- The GLUT 2, protein transporter:
There is a second transporter, called GLUT2, which transports fructose with the assistance of glucose. Eating foods with equal amounts or more glucose in relation to fructose helps with the absorption of the fructose. However, if fructose is present at a higher rate than glucose then it may not be absorbed as well or at all. Fructose is used more than glucose in processed foods because it is sweeter so food manufacturers need less to sweeten their products, which results in cheaper manufacturing costs.
- Additional GLUTs:
GLUT7, GLUT8, and GLUT12 are also present and transport fructose but not to the same extent as GLUT5 or GLUT2. The multiple transporter proteins may compensate for each other since fructose is still tolerated even when GLUT2 is mutated.
- Other possible causes:
Inherited or acquired abnormalities of GLUT5, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), inflammation (found to reduce GLUT5 activity and production), stress (can affect GLUT2 production), celiac disease, bacterial variations or abnormalities in the gut, presence of sorbitol (a sugar alcohol), and chemotherapy.
- Other interesting facts:
Fructose malabsorption is more prevalent in women (a fact I suspected when there were only women present when I was going through my breath tests). Scientists speculate that this may be due to genetic or hormonal factors but other scientists have shown that fructose malabsorption does not seem to be due to genetics or related to ethnicity.
What to do?
Hopefully, the research will continue and we will gain more insight into how to better treat and possibly cure fructose malabsorption. In the meantime, the best way to prevent or limit the symptoms is by restricting fructose, fructans, other saccharides and polyols with the FODMAP (fermentable oligos- di- mono-saccharides, and polyols) diet. However, it is important to first discuss this with a nutritionist. There are many resources available including a shopping list of FODMAP friendly foods created by nutritionist, Kate Scarlata and two helpful apps; Low FODMAP diet by Monash Unversity and FODMAP swAPP by Dr. Kerith Duncanson.

Traditional healers from alcoholism
Alcoholism can be called one of the most significant problems of our time. You can address the question, what is this addiction a serious disease that requires careful treatment or is a consequence of the psychological characteristics of human nature. But is the right decision to help those suffering this affliction.
I suggest healers from alcoholism?
Tales healers with high hopes. It is believed that they can help to deal with their addiction without resorting to medication. Traditional healers from alcoholism often used teas possess a diuretic effect.
In General, their use is justified because they can be used to ensure the excretion of toxins and decomposition products of alcohol. Components of such drinks is quite varied, but the dosage is big enough. You should drink at least 20 cups, so care should be taken so that the tea was pleasant and did not cause disgust neither taste nor smell.
A positive result from the use of herbs in addition to cleansing is the substitution effect. They reduce the craving for alcohol and soothe irritated mucous membranes. This effect and use traditional healers from alcoholism and those katariinanlaakso treatment for a long time have their own recipes. Continue reading
Traditional medicine – alternative medicine
Traditional medicine is one of the oldest methods of treatment. It is part of alternative medicine. What is the difference between traditional medicine from non-traditional? From the moment I became interested in the theme of "traditional medicine", that was the first question which wanted to understand, because some say that it is one and the same, others argue that these are two different things.
I read a lot of literature, leafing through reference books on folk medicine, reached their conclusion. Still, it is a bit of a different direction in medicine, for example about alternative medicine you can not say "grandma's recipe", as it is more complex and broad area. But, everything in order!
Let us consider the detailed descriptions of these methods.
What is alternative medicine
A generic name of methods that claim to cures or prevention of disease. But scientifically not proven the effectiveness and safety of such methods. It approaches to the prevention and treatment of various diseases on the specific tactics that, in contrast to generally accepted medical practice, are based not so much on the study of the causes and mechanisms of disease, but rather on assessment of its manifestations. Continue reading
Properties of medicinal plants
We know that drugs of vegetable and animal origin, by its nature closer to the human body than synthetic drugs, their action is milder, and they seldom give adverse reactions. Why drugs from plants and natural products have always been so popular.
Each plant has special properties that act differently on the human body. The world of medicinal herbs is a kind of living laboratory, which synthesizes and secretes substances that have the ability to restore a person's energy to strengthen his physical health, nervous system and psyche.
How wisely and well we use plants contain healing substances and power of the sun, properties of medicinal plants depends on the condition and the quality of our life.
Agree, the people and sickness in all the times were close, but humanity survived. So, there is a system of healing the body, which can relieve disease, restore health. And this system of traditional medicine known since ancient times, proven over many years of therapeutic practice. The plant Kingdom is a source, from which in ancient times people drew the precious balm from any diseases.
On the Earth there are many raznoobraznymi that have roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits capable of exerting a therapeutic effect on the human body and animals. They can be found everywhere: in forests, steppes, swamps, mountains, gardens and orchards. Continue reading

Learning the Meaning of Wisdom Through Experience and Perspective
The meaning of wisdom isn't about what you know so much as how you use that knowledge. It's the reason the word calls to mind images of older, more experienced folks: The longer you live, the better you know how to live. That's not to say you have to be older to pick up a little wisdom, though. Sometimes, all you need is to live through an experience or challenge and come out of it a newer, wiser person.
Take my example: For a long time, I was very much a "bootstraps" kind of person. When I heard people complain about a bad job, no money, or bills piling up, I always wondered to myself why they didn't just do better by knuckling down, working harder, and trying to improve themselves.
It was easy to think that at the time: I had a high-paying job, as did my wife, and things were great. But then downsizing came, and the rug got ripped out from under me. The 401(k) money I drained went fast. Jobs didn't come nearly as quick. As a guy with a new baby son, it was legitimately terrifying. It's humbling having to do things such as call the bank and explain why the mortgage payment is late again or beg the car company not to send the repo man. I began to see the frustration that disadvantaged people feel, especially those who didn't have the privileges in life that I always had.
I came to understand that, as hard as it was on us, some people had it even worse — and they had no immediate way to make it better. In the end, though, this isn't about money or socioeconomic status. It's about a simple idea: Everyone's the hero of their own story, and everyone's trying their best. It's about giving people a little credit and a little credibility. It might be easy to point out what someone's doing wrong from afar, but that's usually because you don't have the whole story.
In a nutshell, the meaning of wisdom is all about grasping that. I'm still far from a wise person, but at least I understand that I don't have all the answers. My circumstances are different from everyone else's, and that means I really have no place to judge what anyone else is doing — not any more than they have a right to judge me and my decisions.
I can't look back on those down years in a positive light, and I wouldn't wish what we went through on my worst enemy, but from a perspective standpoint, it was invaluable. It gave me tools that I apply to all sorts of situations today.
I think of the meaning of wisdom as understanding that there's no way to understand everything. Instead, wisdom is about trying to fill the gaps with a different sort of understanding: the kind that gives people credit for what they've done instead of dismissing them for what they haven't. I don't have to walk a mile in someone's shoes to understand where they're coming from because now I know their path is just as challenging and valid as mine.

The RFC Editor does, however, has a signed service level agreement and a contractual obligation to try and get things out the door in a timely fashion.

Hello all!!! Sorry I haven't been updating these days cuz life has overwhelmed me recently... But but but!!! I still wanna share with y'all a procedure I did a little while back at The Clifford Clinic! Having a double chin has always been an issue for me ever since I was young (and even when I was rather skinny!) so I was really excited to try out this new procedure called HIFU Sygmalift offered at The Clifford Clinic!
With more than 15 years of experience in Aesthetic Medicine, the doctors at The Clifford Clinic understand our concerns when it comes to aesthetic services. At Clifford, they aim to deliver natural looking results with low down time in the hands of safe and experienced doctors. they understand the needs of their patients and strive to meet these expectations. The Clifford Clinic was born to fulfill the needs and expectations of their patients. Both doctors have been trained locally and abroad in Aesthetic Medicine. The clinic uses only the latest state-of-the-art equipment together with the best quality skincare products. They do not compromise on quality, yet maintains very competitive prices.
Conveniently located in The Clifford Center, which is less than a minute walk from Raffles Place MRT station, The Clifford Clinic is a professional aesthetic clinic that specialises in natural looking results with minimal down time.
* * *
I told Dr Ee my concerns regarding having a double chin/saggy chin and Dr Ee suggested me to try the latest in HIFU technology - HIFU Sygmalift! The Clifford Clinic is the first clinic in Singapore to have Fractionated HIFU.
Me inside the treatment room!
And finally starting on my first treatment session :D
Generally, HIFU Sygmalift is a non-invasive procedure which is painless with no downtime!
Overall, it was a comfortable procedure with ZERO PAIN. I have said it countless times that my threshold for pain is on a one-of-its-kind of level.. so when I say it's not painful, you can trust me on that! I seriously had zero feelings throughout the treatment process!
Here's how instant the results are!
The last step for this treatment is to help firm up and improve the skin tone! I was also required to wear this eye googles to protect my eyes from the bright light coming out from the equipment~
Application of the cold gel
Honestly, I really dozed off during my 2nd treatment. HAHAHA. Told ya that is it comfortable and painless already!
Sadly, I couldn't make it for the 3rd treatment as I had to fly to Aussie~😖
While I think there are still some double chin, but I think overall, my face is really more V-shaped!! And I can really feel & see the difference when I am applying my makeup. I used to always have to contour my jaw lines to make it sharper and all, but these days I don't even find the need to contour anymore! My face also looks sharper in the selfies I took recently!😍👍
HIFU Sygmalift is suitable for anyone of any age! It is safe for all skin types as well!

Jack Ü feat. Justin Bieber – Where Are Ü Now
What do you get when you put two of the biggest EDM artists out there right now with pop's reigning heartthrob? One of the summer's catchiest songs! Where Are Ü Now is Jack Ü's (Skrillex and Diplo) latest offering featuring an unlikely but successful new collaborator, Justin Bieber. This follows another recent Canadian collab for Jack Ü, the big dance anthem Take Ü There featuring Kiesza. The music video for this new track stars Bieber who does his signature pouts and poses and even breaks out a few dance moves, but is completely covered in animated artwork that flashes on the screen throughout the clip.
Shawn Mendes – Believe
Just last week, we shared Shawn Mendes' latest single Believe (from the upcoming Disney Original Movie, Descendants) and now we have a fun and uplifting new music video to go with the song! The music video features people filling out the phrase "I believe…" with their own unique answers like "I believe in making new friends", "I believe there is good in all of us" and "I believe in balance" — all while other people go out and do various acts of kindness. It's pretty much impossible not to feel good after watching a video like this.
Son Lux – You Don't Know Me
Indie artist Son Lux released a new music video today for the sinister sounding track You Don't Know Me off of his newest album, Bones. Fans of Orphan Black will immediately recognize the video's star, Tatiana Maslany. According to a statement by director Nathan Johnson, the role was written with Maslany in mind. "She's such a phenomenal actor and she brings something so compelling to the role," he says, of the video which follows a woman who lives a double life. "This powerful figure who is stuck in the vacancy of routines that have lost their meaning." It's no clone drama, but Maslany does rock this role with the same tenacity as she would with Sarah Manning or Allison Hendrix.
Pia Mia feat. Chris Brown and Tyga – Do It Again
Earlier this year, we introduced you to Pia Mia, a rising singer who calls the Jenners and Kardashians her friends. With these powerful friendships, it's pretty easy to see how her latest single Do It Again features two of hip hop's biggest names right now, Chris Brown and Tyga (the latter being the rumoured boyfriend of Kylie Jenner). Do It Again is a bubbly, flirty song about a one night stand, but the music video is less romance and more beach-side hangouts.
Mark Ronson feat. Keyone Starr – I Can't Lose
Following the massive success of Uptown Funk, Mark Ronson returns with another infectious single, I Can't Lose featuring singer Keyone Starr. The music video for this funky synth number is a throwback to old-school gangster films with gambling, drinking and a dance-off that would make MJ proud.

I wrote this piece two years ago for another blog site. Consider all that has happened in the last two years, consider the now very real damage and physical/emotional/economic pain that has been deliberately inflicted on the American people by Obamacare.
America has been and still is under attack, the bullets are bad law imposed on a Nation that was founded on the rule of law, the wounds caused by those bullets are now to be treated by the same small group of elected weasels that have conspired to destroy the rule of law by using the rule of law.
We are no less under attack today than we were on this date in 1941, the question is, how much longer will this Nation be willing to sustain wounds inflicted without bleeding to death – or fighting back?
"…But when a long train of abuses and usurpations pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. "
Ask yourself if those words from our Declaration of Independence are applicable to the events of the last few years, ask yourself if the people elected to federal leadership are actually honoring this oath - "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God."
Are they?
" The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people. "
"….or to the people." That`s US, we are the ultimate holders of power, we`ve simply not exercised it.
2014 is 2010, if this administration gets control of both houses of Congress again, Obamacare will seem like a picnic in the park compared to what this President has on his to do list.
** Here is the original article **
Today we remember the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor, we honor the dead and offer our thanks to the survivors for their service. Ironically, America is under attack again, and from one who call`s Hawaii home. The President of the United States of America is in deep political trouble in this re-election season, it seems the majority of the population is refusing to simply give him what he wants, and as he has reminded us on several occasions, mostly because we just hav`nt been listening closely enough to his speeches to grasp that he knows what`s best for us – we just don`t understand the complexities of his intellect. Here`s how I see it – He is showing his true colors, and they are not Red, White, and Blue. The President is traveling the Country telling everyone who they can get to show up, and trumpeted by a complicit and in my opinion, treasonous media, that the Republicans want to block the payroll tax extension simply to take money out of the pockets of the middle class. Do you believe that? Ask yourself why, in an election year, these folks that want ONLY to be re-elected would stand up and vote to take away money from working folks. Does`nt make sense does it? What the President, nor the media is telling you is the ONE YEAR TEMPORARY EXTENSION of the payroll tax will be paid for with a TEN YEAR PERMANENT tax on the folks that provide the vast majority of the jobs in this Country. The President speaks of this in deliberately general terms such as " the rich", and "ask them to pay their fair share" well, try this on for size – the top 1% of taxpayers in America pay 37% of the taxes – the 'occupiers' either don`t know, or won`t acknowledge that fact, but the President knows, and it is despicable that he is simply employing this tactic to divide the Country and take the spotlight of failure off of himself and his policies. There is one very good reason that the economy not getting better -Barack Hussein Obama. The President`s policies and his appointment of regulatory czars have had the result the President intended, bring America down to the level of other countries to make amends for what he considers America`s past transgressions. How else to explain stopping all deep water drilling operations in the Gulf after the BP spill because of 'safety concerns" then giving BILLIONS of dollars to Brazil so they can drill in the SAME DEEP WATER LOCATIONS and sell the oil to us -do you think Brazil is better equipped to deal with a spill than say, BP – remember we gave Brazil billions to start drilling operations, care to guess who would pay for the clean up? There are many examples of actions the President has taken, and NOT taken that has what seems to be a deliberate attempt to cause hardship instead of restore this Country economically – it is this simple, A homeowner will not build a new deck on his house if he see`s a wildfire just over the hill – Mr. Obama can put out the fire, but seems to be pouring gas on it and charging the homeowner for the gas.The President would seem to be putting his socialist / marxist ideology ahead of the oath he swore when the American people entrusted the power of the office of President to him – Frank Marshall Davis would be proud of you Mr. President.
