Oh Mama I wish I could find the link now :(

I was reading earlier about a new treatment for Type 1 diabetes that they are saying is looking damn near an actual CURE. It involves stem cells and they figure it is 2-3 years from market.

Keep your chin up there is always hope.
Translation:
"It should take only 2 to 3 years to claim it was bogus, and use the info to come up with a million dollar maintenance regime so we can make lots and lots of money from it. And if any valid doctor or scientist dares to contradict us by saying there is a cure, we will wipe his/her name in the mud until he/she cannot get a job as a Janitor. "

Sorry for not following proper protocol.
That's a little mean, implying that my reason for not responding was because of protocol. The reason I didn't respond was because I didn't know what the question was, and wasn't even positive that it was addressed to me. I suppose you could define that as protocol-related but to me it was lack of clarity.

Here's the link to the video, my friend:


Edit: hmm, just found out it isn't necessary to use the "media" icon to embed a Youtube video. All I did was post the URL, and the video showed.

Ohh I got pain all the time. My lower back has bulging, hernaited, thin, etc discs.
But I have been off of work taking care of my wife who was injured in an auto accident. I have been back to work for a week and this is a day off from work but not slavery on the home front.
Still doing laundry, groceries, dishes, vacuumed today, etc. Now I am told I have to repot some plants and work on a water issue for my SIL for a house she does not even live in.

Depression can be for valid reasons...
Tell your SIL to hire someone or take a hike. Sounds like your plate is already full. Priorities my man, priorities. I have foind myself that saying no is one of the hardest things to do for our type of folks. ;)

I'm not only avoiding going for a walk, I'm not even approaching my car to get where I was supposed to be this afternoon.
It is a long sustained rain here!
Been raining for two days straight here. Just got up and I'm not even going out to get the paper. Morning Gracie aand everyone else. Other than rain lets all try to have a good one today. :)

I dont know if it'll help anybody here but, I too have Type 2 diabetes. I take 1 metformin every morning and evening. I also am on Victoza, 1 shot daily. It is great stuff. Doesn't replace insulin for those who really need it but, if your only using a little bit of insulin like I was, ask your doctor about it. Damn, I sound like one of those stupid commercials. :lol: My A1C has been 5 or under since I started it and I eat any damn thing I want. Probably should eat better but, it's working really well. :)

Hoo boy, a priceless 145 year old Martin guitar, borrowed from the Martin museum, was destroyed beyond repair during the filming of "The Hateful Eight", thanks to Quentin Tarantino not informing Kurt Russell that the particular guitar was the original, not the copy that it was supposed to be for the destruction scene.

Thank you.

At :24, the white area at the top of the screen. It shows at various other times, but nowhere else quite as well.
From the left top corner of the screen until about two-thirds of the way toward the right top corner of the screen, what you see is farmland that's on the other side of the creek from me. This part of the screen appears as dull green on my computer. The remainder of the top of the screen shows winter-barren trees.

In the middle of top of the screen you can see an irrigation ditch on the farmland.

Here's a video from a couple of months ago that from :48 to :58, the quad is flying forward in the same direction that it is pointed at the spot in the video that you mention. Then, at :58, the video below cuts to a place another half mile further in the same direction, where the manmade lake is that I referred to. I don't think that manmade lake is actually visible in yesterday's video, but in yesterday's video, that lake is out there in the same direction that you're looking at :24. At 1:05 of the video below, the quad has turned around, headed back to me, and the irrigation ditches are visible pretty clearly. Please let me know if I've only muddied the water.
