The amount of blood sugar may be high or low.which is more dangerous?

Saturday, June 28th, 2008


Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) is more immediately dangerous. Deterioration can be very rapid, leading to a life-death situation in minutes.

I guess, as this question was asked in the diabetes section, that you’re talking of someone that’s diabetic. There are treatments available for someone that is severely hypoglycemic but these are generally only available on prescription.

High blood sugar (hyperglycemia), although dangerous, sometimes fatally, is generally a slower process. All the time blood sugar levels remain high, damage is being done to internal organs.

Treatments for someone that is severely hyperglycemic includes being admitted to hospital, where they will be connected to a pump delivering a ’sliding scale’ of insulin, with frequent checks made on the blood sugar level.

My doctor and I actually had this conversation many years ago when I was first diagnosed. She said although high blood sugar can damage some of your bodies organs, and make you feel bad, low blood sugar is much worse because it can kill you quickly. High blood sugar takes years to possibly kill you, but low blood sugar, just one time if it is bad enough can put you in a coma and lead to death very soon afterwards if you don’t do something about it.

 

 

There is or was a radio show.?

Friday, June 27th, 2008


The gentleman who hosted it would always tell you how to fix your plants using dish soap, beer, coffee grounds etc. Who was that?

 

If it was in the Houston area the show was and is called garden line. Randy Lemoned is the current host but it will go way back to John Burial and Bill Zack and before that Dewey Compton. It’s a great show and I hope I got all their names correct. http://www.ktrh.com/pages/gardenline.htm…

 

Windows Vista ReadyBoost Question..?

Thursday, June 26th, 2008


I have a 4gb turbo micro memory card, with a USB plug for it. I use it for storing files though. If I delete the files, and use the card and ReadyBoost how much will it speed up my computer? If I want to unplug the memory card and use it for storage will it work again (mainly game storage for my Nintendo DS)? Will it hurt my computer if I do this?

 

ReadyBoost will make your computer slightly faster. It’s often recommended for computers that don’t have much RAM but the user wants to experience a slight boost in speed. I’d say go for it. You can always unplug it, reformat it and use it for whatever else you’d like.

I’m a Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist in Windows Vista Configuration (MCTS)

………………

You wont see much of a difference in speed with ReadyBoost. Think about it, the physical location of RAM is right on the motherboard next to the CPU. The speed in which these things run is in microseconds or nanoseconds, USB drive speeds are measured in milliseconds and sometimes just seconds. You won’t notice any, if all, speed boast on your computer.

A+ certified, CCNA certified.

……………

If you already have 2gb or more of RAM the effect from readyboost will be less than if you were running it on a machine with 512mb or 1gb. I’ve tried it on a machine with 512mb, 1gb and 2gb. The first showed an improvement, the second a slight improvement and the 2gb machine showed no noticeable difference

Raising pigs?

Wednesday, June 25th, 2008


Does this gilt look like she has good basic structure to be a good sow? Im planning on possibly starting a breeding project (in the future) with her and a good boar from my area. I just recently got this cross from a good breeder…Im planning on possibly breeding her next year and using one of her offspring for a show pig.

 

ya can tell by seeing the muscle built up along the spine, and built up higher than the spine so you get that M shape going looking down the pigs spine.

Just remember , and this can be vital , u might no this but ill tell ya anyway, its just a key fact that i know, to do with piglets

iron is essential to the structure of hemoglobin ( the pigment of the red blood cells ) and many enzymes. Iron deficiency results in anemia. Anemia occurs in piglets unless they have access to dirt have good access to soil, or receive an injection of iron shortly after birth
——-

 The pigs that you raise will get only 1/2 of its genes from your sow, equally important is the boar that you breed her to. Again going back to a known good breeder to breed her will be your best bet. He/she will know what you need to get good show pigs.

 

Views on a 2000 rm 125?

Tuesday, June 24th, 2008

I had one……good bike, but I ended up getting a 250 so I could do more trail riding. With the 125 I really had to wind it out to get it in the powerband and it wasn’t always easy to keep it there going thru unfamiliar woods.

I tried trail riding with it but I kept fouling plugs because I couldn’t rev the piss out of it on the trail.

Well, I’ve riden many bikes in my 32yrs of life and love 2 strokes. If you like to ride balls to the wall, this RM will be fine. This bike is a nice size and power ratio! I’m riding a KX 500 and wish it was a 125 at times. A 125 won’t slow you down in the tight trails and has enough speed for the open area. If I were to get another two-stroke it be a 125

……………….

great bike, i still ride my 99 rm125. basically same bike. only the 2000 was made 2 lbs lighter.

What are the trendy new cuts for MED length hair??

Monday, June 23rd, 2008

My hair is blah.. whats in fashion? And not emo, or scene.. like preppy / classy / expensive looking hair.

trust me on this one. you don’t always need to follow the trends. ask your hairdresser to tell you what will look good on you. if you have a good stylist she(or he) will know best! seriously i really dont know how hairdressers do it! ask what they can do, look in the magazines, and make sure if u dont like it in the end ask how she/he can change it. its what you want, not anyone else!

……….

u know a lot of people are getting that bob buttt i was thinking of getting bangs like that go straigth across and then just layering the front just whateva u feel hope i helped and give u a visual.

…………..

If you have seen Ashley Greene’s hair for the role of Alice Cullen in the Movie twilight, that would be good for you maybe

Dallas DWI Attorneys

Saturday, June 21st, 2008

You can be charged with Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) if you are in control of a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcoholic beverages, chemicals, or controlled substances to the extent that your blood alcohol level is above the legal limit. DWI and similar offenses are regarded as criminal law matters which could possibly result in felony conviction with a prison sentence. This is why you need to contact a Dallas DWI lawyer as soon as you are facing charges.

A professional DWI attorney will carefully review your case for defects. This can include a review of the calibration and maintenance records for breath machines, and having blood samples independently analyzed. They can negotiate for a lesser charge or reduced sentence and find expert witnesses for the trial. Your lawyer will also cover many things that an individual may overlook. A skilled lawyer can debate if the blood technician received adequate training, or if laboratory staff handled urine samples properly. Because the prosecution relies heavily on the results of breath, blood and urine tests, any discrepancy in the execution of these tests can bring them into question. For quality legal representation, contact one of the finest Dallas DWI attorneys today.

Saturday, June 21st, 2008

Tax Services are available to those in need of assistance in the preparation and filing of their tax returns. Many of these services are actually available for free.

Free Services from the IRS

The IRS can be contacted either by phone, through their website or at their local offices. Materials and information are readily made available for free to taxpayers in need of clarifications or guidelines.

In addition, since the implementation of the Free File Program, federal returns and tax returns in certain states can easily be filed online. The IRS website has a list of affiliated companies included in the Free Program, and the taxpayer can avail of their services. Do take note that if you are not considered eligible to avail of the Free File program, companies usually charge a fee.

Taxpayer Assistance Centers

A more personalized approach is provided by taxpayer assistance centers. Should you wish to consult with a person instead of going on line or listening to pre-recorded voice messages, professionals in the TACs are available to render assistance in the preparation of your income tax returns and to answer any other questions you might have.

Community Volunteer Resources

Programs such as the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance and Tax Counseling for the Elderly, in cooperation with the IRS, offer free tax preparation services in various communities. These services are available to taxpayers with low to moderate income.

What’s the best way to encourage children to take up sport?

Saturday, June 14th, 2008

Encourage them from the time they are young, start them early. Lead them from the front - don’t tell them they should take up sport, spend time with them in playing outdoor games. But, most importantly, don’t ever force them into doing anything, else they will take dislike to sporting activities.

While you can start them off with swimming (one of the sporting activities) at a very early age, once they join school, encourage them to participate in school sports. Be there to cheer them when they are participating in any school sport activity and if they don’t win any prizes, don’t discourage them by critcizing them.

i think encouraging children to get into sports should come from the home and the school i feel that the schools here in britain dont do enough for the kids when it comes to sports and is really important that we as parents encourage them to play sports for example i have a little 2 year old boy and i play ball games like football with him because i want him to be active and to stay fit and encourage him to take up other sports when he gets olders.
The schools should have more sports and after school sports clubs available available for children thats the big problem children get bored and that is why they are sitting in the house playing computer games and getting up to mischief because there is not many after school clubs it would answer all our problems to childhood obsesity. for girls though it would be very hard to get them into sports such as football , rugby the schools should set up after school dance and aerobics classes.
There is also not enough p.e classes during school either and this is very sad because p.e can be enjoyable so there should be more p.e classes and also gives the kids a break from studying and exercise will help their brains too.

If you are a parent, it’s to do it yourself. When they see you doing it and enjoying it, they’ll want to do it. Then, when they take it up, take an interest in it. Go and watch them, cheer them on. Take winning and losing in your stride and get them to do the same.
