    Who One Star Rates a Friggin' Birthday Thread?!?

    I am so glad you see it that way. You know what they say, the first step towards change is awareness.

    Who One Star Rates a Friggin' Birthday Thread?!?

    I would say that feeding the fire is the continued 1-starring. It is not feeding the fire to say I know what some people have bragged about and what they have said about them. Do I think that they just said they did and didn't do it? Ummmh, No!!!!! Some people just thrive on...

    Who One Star Rates a Friggin' Birthday Thread?!?

    I agree that people should ignore the 1-star rating but there are several people (Laura being one of them, as is Jonezie) that get 1-starred, no matter what they say or what they do. I think there is a difference between people needing to be more thick skinned because their thread gets a low...

    Who One Star Rates a Friggin' Birthday Thread?!?

    I agree that people get too worked up over the star rating. It's not worth the attention. On the other hand, if people always look the other way, nothing ever gets changed. Personally, I think it says nothing about the person that is being "one-starred" but it says everything I need to know...

    Non-Processed Cheese

    A good book to read is The Raw Food Detox Diet by Natalia Rose. You can get it on amazon.com, I think the paperback is around $ 10. She also has a website/blog. http://www.detoxtheworld.com/ She recommends going in phases off processed food and there are meal plans that can be easily modified...

    Carnie Wilson annoys me

    I guess it depends on what you consider nutritionally superior? I think it is pretty well established that the nutritional value is affected by the growth period and the timing of the harvest. Produce that grows fast and that is harvested before full ripeness contains relatively more water and...

    Turbo Tax

    I have used the online version for the past 3 years. I had a CPA before that but I thought he was pretty useless. He basically only transfered the information that I gave him into his program. I didn't think he was worth the money he charged. With Turbo Tax online, it let's you do the tax...

    Interesting "Whole Foods" News....

    I can see your point and agree to a certain degree. However, should we say because there is so much pollution already, the added pesticides don't matter anymore? And thus not buy organic. I think the head scratching for me in regards to Whole Foods is that if you promote sustainable and local...

    Body Composition Scan

    Before y'all jump on the DEXA scan bandwaggon don't forget that all of these scans do expose people to radiation. It's a 5 to 10 minute procedure and whereas a lot of times the radiation exposure is low, it depends on the equipment they use, this can vary by provider. Also keep in mind that...

    Interesting "Whole Foods" News....

    I had seen this on their frozen produce and been scratching my head about it. But it does fit with the overall impression I have of the Whole Foods CEO, John Mackey. What I really dislike about Whole Foods is the image they project about caring about people's health and nutrition but in fact a...

    Agave nectar

    continued Worse Than Any Sugar: Artificial Sweeteners The worst of all possible choices are artificial sweeteners. They are, without question, far more damaging to your health than regular sugar. While I don’t recommend it, consuming sugar in moderation isn’t likely to cause serious health...

    Agave nectar

    Most newspapers and magazines ask for your email address to be able to see an article. That doesn't make him a weasel! I think there is always a problem with anything that that we eat too much of. I don't think agave nectar or honey are an exception. And just because something is natural...

    Help my dog won't walk!

    Well that sounds like good progress, Janie!!!! You go girl! Just be consistent and it will work out. And get that book :D! I am sure you already know that but I just wanted to point it out. Don't start him on the jogging too fast. It can cause a lot of damage to their joints and bones...

    Foods you're too scared to try?

    :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: Well, I guess there is a reason that the British are not exactly known for high quality of their cuisine :cool: I don't eat meat anymore but I grew up in Southern Germany and blood sausage was relished by a lot of Germans. You would get blood sausage with...

    Dog Bite

    Somehow I expected that you would say that :eek: Although for the life of me I can't figure out how the dog's feeling would be hurt by the dog biting YOU!!! Unfortunately I think you are absolutely right! I don't believe you are the first one and you probably won't be the last one...

    Help my dog won't walk!

    My advice would be enroll in a puppy class asap!!! From what I gather you are a first time dog owner and unless you get the puppy off to the right start you will have lifelong problems with destructive behavior. When I got my first own dog, I did everything wrong that I could possibly do wrong...

    Dog Bite

    This is really wrong on so many levels!!!! :mad::mad::mad: Can I ask what the dog owners did after the bite? Did they redirect the dog, did they even see it? It's always hard to judge the reasons for a dog's behavior if not experienced first hand but from what you have shared it sounds like...
