We lost last night b/c HF Boards was down, you can't convince me otherwise.

They couldn't find the train to the game

Columbia, IL

Ahh I am in O'fallon MO. Was right on the edge of the most powerful part of the storm supposedly. My power flashed and went out for about 5 minutes then came back. How long has yours been out?

 

[Xerloris]

So had some crazy ass storms tonight. Hope everyone is ok. Not very pleased to have the snow blindness back.

About 3 hours now

 

[Memento]

Good news? None of the storms hit me or my family.

Bad news? I’m back in the hospital for a UTI, and I had a vasovagal reaction that caused me to pass out and fall out of the hospital bed (with wounds on my hands to prove it).

Time warp to nowhere on this site.

Serves us right.

After that loss the the Pens we are cooked.

I grew up in O'fallon... went to Zumwalt back when there was only 1 Zumwalt. I Think it's called Zumwalt North now. I'm shocked how much that area has grown every time I visit my brother

Power just came back on.

I forgot how to spell HF.

I can distill this topic down for you.

We have evidence that:
1. High cholesterol (LDL-C) is associated with increased atherosclerosis, which is the process by which plaque builds up within the arteries.
2. Saturated fat increases LDL-C in a large percentage of people.
3. We find lots of saturated fat in dairy products and red meat.

The three statements above are well-established. Often times, public health officials and doctors will take premises (such as the 3 above) and deduce that one should limit their consumption of certain foods (e.g. bacon) to avoid cardiovascular disease. However, we do not have direct evidence that eating a particular food (i.e. dairy or red meat) causes increased plaque in people's arteries.

I will reply in a direct message.
