JANH TO PERISH TONIGHT!
by The_Bad_Seed intonight at the stroke of midnight*, the one who calls herself janh will be eaten alive; via an attack of a bag of savage, demonic, multi-colored kraft marshmallows that i have cast a powerful spell upon, for repeatedly accusing me in the chatroom yesterday of a bearing a multi identity on this site, as also being the one you have all come to know and love, father naeblis, the greek god of desire.. all i can do now, is hope to, and look forward to this much anticipated event!
tickets can be purchased directly through ticketmaster, or, given to you free of charge provided you do some sort of random act of kindness, without one, an event of such evil (albeit deserving) magnitude could very well throw off the balance of the earth.
transportation the responsibility of the attendee.. not responsible for lost or stolen socks.. in the words of my apparent 'alter ego':.

Time to Change Soon to Someday
by Undecided ini've been reading the publications of the wt society for 55 years and my grandmother many years before that and the term "soon" has lost it's meaning.
it's time to use "someday" in it's place.
if someone says that i will be home soon, and you die of old age before they show up, i would think they had lied to me.

that's when they come to the door i tell them to hold on and that i'll be back "soon". i then go back to whatever i was doing. "soon" being a relative term for them they quickly realize that i'm not coming back "soon" at all and they eventually leave.

Is Anything Worth Dying For?
by HildaBingen ini often hear people here talk about the horrible jw willingness to die for blood transfusions.
maybe jws are mistaken when it comes to the bt issue; maybe not.
however i wonder if there is anything that is really worth dying for in this life.. for me, to live is christ and to die is gain.

Bill Bowen "Kidneys"
by HildaBingen inas a mystical christian, i am just as distressed about child molestation as is mr bowen.

i skipped the sandwich entirely, riz, and went for a nice can of vegetable soup.
and that's exactly what scares me about clowns! you never know how they're feeling on the inside. a homocidal killer dressed up as a clown could walk unhindered through a park giving balloons to passer-by's, and no one would have an inkling of what he's really about.
:shudder:

The ketogenic ratio
Food can be rated as either ketogenic or anti-ketogenic dependent on their
conversion to glucose in the body. Dietary fats are the most ketogenic
item, converting to glucose with only 10% efficiency. Proteins are in the
middle, converting to glucose with about 58% efficiency (this is due to the
fact that some dietary amino acids are ketogenic in nature, meaning that
they convert to ketones, and others are glucogenic, meaning that they
convert to glucose) (2). Dietary carbohydrates convert to blood sugar with
100% efficiency making them completely anti-ketogenic in nature. To
rapidly establish ketosis, a minimum ratio of 1.5 grams of fat for each
gram of protein and/or carbohydrate is recommended. This would provide a
ketogenic ratio of 1.5:1. While higher ketogenic ratios are used
clinically, this author can see no need to use a higher ratio of fat to
protein and carbs for a healthy athlete. (5)What exactly does ketosis mean?
Ketosis simply refers to a metabolic state where the concentration of KB's
in the blood builds to higher than normal levels. As will be discussed
below in further detail, this should not be equated with the ketoacidosis
which occurs in diabetics.
The presence of ketosis through whatever means implies two things (15):
1. that lipid energy metabolism has been activated
2. that the entire pathway of lipid degradation is intact.
Normally, there is fairly tight control on the production of KB's. Except
in pathological conditions such as diabetes, excess ketones will simply be
excreted in the urine (1). This allows an individual to check for the
presence and urinary concentration of ketones by utilizing Ketostix.Metabolic effects of ketogenic diets
Establishment of ketosis, even in the short term, has the effect of
increasing the body's ability to utilize fat for fuel. After adaptation to
ketosis, there is a decrease in fasting RQ (an indicator of relative fuel
metabolism with lower values indication greater reliance on fat metabolism
versus carbohydrate metabolism) (7). Also, there is a decrease in glucose
oxidation during ketogenic diets as KB's are providing much of the body's
energy needs (18). Additionally, adaptation to a ketogenic diet increases
fat oxidation during exercise even in trained individuals (14, 17).
One point of contention regarding ketogenic diets is the supposed protein
sparing effect when compared to a eucaloric diet with a high carbohydrate
intake. Due to methodological differences, some studies have found a
decrease in protein utilization while others have found an increase (8).
However, available data seems to support the idea that ketosis spares
protein from being used for energy. Since there is essentially an
unlimited supply of fat which can be converted to ketones, and since
ketones can be used by all oxidative tissues, there should be little need
to oxidize protein to generate glucose through gluconeogenesis. There is
an obligatory protein requirement which must be met of about 30 grams per
day. And, to be safe, an intake of 60-75 grams of protein is recommended
(7).
