Agreed— diabetics would probably be the most affected by changes in glucose absorption.

I wasn’t trying to suggest that it fully blocks it— grapefruit juice doesn’t fully block drug-metabolizing enzymes, but it certainly inhibits them enough that you could conceivably end up with a far different dose than what you expected.

The effects on sugar absorption is fascinating— I wonder if there are any safety concerns given that it might be blocking more than just sugar.

Checked-in at the hospital at 135lbs and bottomed out at 120lbs by the third week—which is definitely not ideal, but relatively common among patients.

We did, actually. We even pre-washed the plates by hand because we were old-fashioned. No solid food waste, no cookware. Just cups and plates.

Same. Our dishwasher didn’t clean and it eventually culminated into the dishwasher overflowing and leaking out onto the kitchen floor. Thankfully, it was pretty clear that we didn’t overload it or anything, but still such a huge hassle to fix.

Yes. Virtually every Asian family (mine included) used their dishwasher as a drying rack, at best.

SF/Bay Area. PG&E doesn’t offer tiered pricing for EV plans, so we’re on a time-of-use, without a separate meter. We pay $0.13/kWh during off-peak hours, $0.26/kWh during “partial peak” (7A-2P and 9P-11P weekdays only), and $0.49/kWh during peak hours (2-9P weekdays, 3-7P weekends).

Most PHEVs sit around 20-40 miles of electric-only range. I’ve had a Prius Prime since March 2017 and put 36,000 miles on it (80-mile daily commute), and it’s saved us quite a bit on gas money. If my commute was shorter, it’d save us even more because at current gas prices, it costs twice as much per mile to drive on…

I went on a 28-day juice (well, liquids) cleanse recently called the Double Jaw Surgery Diet. I would not recommend it for anyone who has a functional jaw.

It’s also a little concerning that they would talk pregnant women out of cesareans, too. I’ll admit naivety on the matter, but how many of those are actually medically unnecessary (when I search for statistics, the top hits seem to be from pregnancy blogs and opinion pieces)? It doesn’t seem like something a qualified…

Real question: shred the brussels sprouts perpendicular to the stem (so you get a round core), parallel to the stem, or at a jaunty angle? Or do I throw caution to the wind and shred them all differently??

A single gas station can easily service 100's of cars a day. A charge station can probably serve 10 a day?

My dream is to have a Mazda-styled BEV/PHEV with Toyota reliability (disclaimer: I’m not picky about driving dynamics). Given their partnership, the possibility is certainly there, but it can’t come fast enough.

Sure, why not? Pretty much all of OW’s white characters have a distinct nationality.

(cause the darker skinned females don’t count as black enough apparently? I’m so very white so I don’t understand. Sorry.)

The augmented reality models and animation on display at the opening ceremony were definitely inferior to the ones in the video. I suspect they were done by a different studio.

I think Ghost and Titan failures have made Blizzard very reticent about announcing any projects until they’re near completion.

Common ingredients will often give you a volume and a weight measurement in the nutrition facts. For example, on my bag of flour, one serving is 1/4 cups, or 30 grams, so one cup of flour would be 120 grams. Otherwise, there are conversion charts online for common ingredients.

Yeah, LAX sits on a hellmouth or something. Everything is somehow slow, crowded, and/or under construction.
