Concrete with a hardener in it generates it’s own heat, doesn’t it? Hardening time is just extended.

{scratching my head}

Well, I don’t know. Winter is LONG in northern Russia. How else are you supposed to patch potholes in December?

Someone will probably jump in here and suggest a flamethrower to melt off the snow first...

There’s a technique in the Midwest where we pack a kind of crumbly stuff in the potholes, then…

“Abortion as a tool to keep the black population in check” is ridiculous.

Abortion is a personal choice. Every person makes that decision on their own.

As the choice is available to pretty much everybody but the extreme RED States, it’s not a TOOL.

That would imply the people getting abortions were being coerced, and…

Okay, what’s with the lantern?

yeah... how long do these laptops last for you?

My previous Macbook lasted six years before I gave it to my Mom. Still works.

Look up “Return on Investment Macintosh”.

eh. It’s an easy fix.

And wires HAVE to bend. There’s no real alternative unless you go with a magnetic charging pad.

The FIRST iBook had little metal contacts on the bottom, so a third-party manufacturer could make a charging dock.

Drop it on, charge it up, use it while on the Dock.

Nobody was interested.

Actually, it’s because of the Magsafe connector that prevents you from tripping on the power cord and damaging the power port on the laptop.

THAT’S expensive and I know people that have done it.

When my Magsafe finally wore out after six years, I got a repair kit off eBay for $17.

Now, for sad little people that can’t…

When you put oil in your car, you’re “supporting” your car’s lubrication system.

If you don’t, your car will wear out faster.

Supplements that “support” the immune system simply ensure that you have the trace nutrients you need for it to function.

Without B1, for example, you get Beri Beri; your body strips the myelin…

Gluten intolerance is caused by inflammation in the gut; the author has the entire thing backwards.

So, no.

Since that “45 year lifespan” was entirely due to infant mortality, your logic fails.

That was only 150 years ago, BTW.

Uh, no. Cannabis doesn’t need fertilizers or pesticides.

That’s why legalizing Hemp is so important. It’s drought resistant, highly productive, and a cash crop.

No, GM Wheat is illegal. Wheat that’s been hybridized has much higher levels of gluten than 100 years ago.

Wheat used to be 4 feet tall. Now it’s 2 feet tall because the plant has been modified to feed all energy into increasing the size of the wheat kernels.

Yes, it means the product is either Gluten Free, or I’m gonna smack somebody hard.

The new Corn Pasta is pretty good too.

I’ve worked out a GF pizza crust. It tastes fine, but I recommend eating it with a fork like Deep Dish. Unlike super-high gluten pizza dough, the crust is soft and tasty, not like cardboard.

In my own baking, I’ve had good results with unflavored gelatin powder and Psyllium Husk powder.

My chocolate chip cookies are better than ever.

“That means, Case continued, going gluten-free can potentially increase your risk of developing a micronutrient deficiency, especially if you rely on hyper-processed and fat/sugar-packed, packaged foods rather than the nutritionally stable and vitamin-packed fresh fruits, vegetables, and gluten-free grains (like…

I just want to put this out there.

This is the SECOND anti-gluten free article I’ve read this week.

The first one had me puzzled, as it was from an allergist claiming there’s no such thing as a “gluten allergy”.

Well, I used a nonstick spray with flour in it this Sunday and was sick for two days. The guy’s a quack…

I believe that’s an outright lie the author slipped in.

If you stop eating wheat, and get violently ill when you start again because wheat is so hard to digest... why didn’t that happen when you were a baby and they put you on solid food for the first time?

Parents WATCH their kids for allergic reactions these days. A…

Back during the Tom Baker Era, Doctor Who was GREAT.

And the Doctor right before him and after him were good...

#6 was so-so, etc..

But something changed in the writing with the 7th Doctor, who BTW, drew heavily on Tom Baker and was pretty damned good himself.

The “Jump the Shark” moment was “The Psychic Circus” episode.
