 I am very lactose intolerant and that seems to be the connection !

I lack the enzyme to digest any dairy products ( Yogurt helps only in small amounts)then it also becomes a problem.

I’m currently trying Kimchee with some good results,may add sourkraut later!

Degrading calcium oxalate in the intestinal tract before it can move into the kidneys holds a lot of promise  !
Are Probiotics a Potential Treatment for Kidney Stones?

There is growing evidence in scientific literature supporting the use of probiotics to help reduce kidney stone formation. People who naturally carry a probiotic bacteria called Oxalobacter formigenes are 70 percent less likely to develop kidney stones than people whose dietary tracts lack that bacteria. This probiotic is believed to prevent kidney stone formation by breaking down or degrading calcium oxalate in the intestinal tract before it can move into the kidneys. Other studies have demonstrated that probiotic supplements containing lactic acid bacteria that included Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus brevis, Streptococcus thermophilus, and Bifidobacteria infantis can reduce urinary oxalate excretion by 24-40%.  This helps prevent kidney stone formation. Some probiotic products on the market that contain some of these species of probiotics include Accuflora Pro-Biotic-Acidophilus from Northwest Natural and Align Digestive Care from Proctor and Gamble.  The exact mechanism by which these probiotic bacteria might reduce kidney stones remains unclear and more research is required to fully determine this mechanism.  However, these findings are of great importance and point towards the use of probiotics as a less painful way to reduce or prevent kidney stone formation.

 I wish that I had become a dentist like FGC.

the usdx made a rpw up and a close today above the high of the low day would be a buy signal. it is currently trading in an area to trigger a buy signal. this is not investment advice just a mechanical trading system that works on a percentage basis if applied correctly.

In Canada, the word gets around that one way to pick a good dentist out of the yellow pages is to find out first whether she or he uses only premium gold-plated FG diamond burs for tooth preparation . I have heard that FGC puts his dentist hands only onto dental instruments that are gold-plated (see link below) Equiz.

Chinese warplanes make Mid East debut in Turkey and Iran
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report October 12, 2010, 3:33 PM (GMT+02:00)

Tags:  China   Turkey   Iran 

Chinese Air Force Su-27 warplane

The arrival of a new Middle East player startled Washington and Jerusalem: debkafile’s military sources disclose that when Turkish Prime Minister Tayyep Erdogan met Syrian president Bashar Assad in Damascus Monday, Oct. 11, they talked less about the Kurdish question and more about the role China is willing to play in the military-intelligence alliance binding Syria, Iran and Turkey.

Erdogan took the credit for China’s unfolding involvement in the alliance in the role of big-power backer. Two recent events illustrate Beijing’s intent:

1.  From Sept. 20 to Oct. 6, the Turkish Air Force conducted its regular annual Anatolian Eagle exercise, this time without US and Israeli participation. Israel was not invited and America opted out. However, their place was taken by Chinese Sukhoi Su-27 and Mig-29 warplanes making their first appearance in Turkish skies.

Our military sources report that the Chinese warplanes began touching down at the big Konya air base in central Turkey in mid-September for their debut performance in the Middle East and Europe.
Konya has served NATO and the United States for decades as one of their most important air bases.

2. Our sources add that the Chinese planes refueled only once on their journey to Turkey in… Iran. When they touched down at the Gayem al-Mohammad air base in central Iran, their crews were made welcome by the Iranian air force commander Gen. Ahmad Migani.

It was the first time Chinese fighter-bombers are known to have visited the Islamic Republic.

The Gayem al-Mohammed facility, located near the town of Birjand in South Khorasan, is situated directly opposite the big American base of East Afghanistan near the Afghan-Iranian border town of Herat.

The Turkish prime minister painted the military alliance binding Tehran, Ankara and Damascus in rosy colors for Assad’s benefit as more central to the region and more powerful than Israel’s armed forces after overcoming the IDF’s military edge.

AAPL tues I think. They will of course beat estimates.

The stops were hit, the bloodbath is here, top callers — you got ‘em all selling, great job.

Just wishful thinking on my part or reading to much into what Reggie is saying?
The Gov can TRY and do and end run around foreclosuregate/robo signing to freeze out the little guy out of the legal system with that sneaky bill they tried to get through under cover of night. It’ll go through after the election or something worse. Will it stand up in court though?
Can they do it for all those iron clad contracts the pension funds and REMICS have that allows them to punt the hot potato back to JPM etc? I don’t think so. Either way all that crap is going to land on JPM and BOA and there isn’t a damn thing they can do about it. Throw in the lawsuits, Credit default swaps etc and it’s going to get ugly fast.

My understanding when BOA took on Merrill Lynch and Countrywide was that they were told to buy them. Did the Fed tell them they would backstop them?

at Olympus, attaching your “credentials” email to me. The intro was made, my friend…sometimes things do not work out, but it appears you are happily shooting with your new equipment and having a great time. Go, GB, go!!

suggest that one can question the value of charts going forward. There is presently no craving on my part to see a fractal TA proponent of where silver or gold price is heading. I do not think that the price of USA.V in the days, weeks and months ahead is going to be predictable by any chart analyses. For the months ahead I am very comfortable resting with our position in USA.V without charting the outcome - and I am sleeping well. Cheers all, in the waking hours of a new trading week for the PMs. Equiz.

Im not sure that you should have posted the article on the monoply set things of golden value one of a kind items seeem to disapear and end up in a canadian dentel office. I am not going to mention any names.

STOCKWATCH »BRCHBrach’s $.32 $7.95 (up 3%)Stock prices jumped today on word that the confectionery company had landed lucrative subsidies from the federal government to convert surplus candy corn into biofuel.

JPM down the tubes?  Not a chance.  They are the largest shareholder in the FED (I’ll have to check that for accuracy, might be #2) and they are one of THE puppet masters.  They will go down only when the economy collapses…and that might happen, but it will be the bank only — not the elite — not the crooks.  BoA?  They are a bastard child, but so integrated into the fabric of our financial system, they will be bailed out again and again.  It is a much more corrupt bank than it was before it was bailed out.  They have sold off the valuable chunks of the enterprise — w/o gov’t or taxpayer approval — you know, the owners.   They have become a toxic paper septic tank similar to Fannie and Freddie.  The banksters are busy at this time writing the bill that will “solve” foreclosuregate, busy while the politicians are out trying to get reelected.  The politicians will pull another “Hank Paulson moment” and approve anything to prevent the potential cayaclysm.  Yes, we are eff’d.
