Happy Birthday, bonny!!
{{Fred Pete}} Honey, you absolutely deserve to take care of cats. No question about that.
It's my estimation that... every man ever got a statue made of him, was one kind of sumbitch or another.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Huh on the Osteoporosis. Was told this by a leading researcher. Though I said "weight bearing" not exercise in general. That is you can build muscle mass through things other than weight bearing exercise. (Isometic) It is widely believed that for Osteo "weight bearing" is better than non weight bearing, and I think that is what has not been verified. Though maybe in that google some test of specifically weight bearing are included.
Offhand can find some on exercise and on weight bearing but not one that compares weight bearing to non weight beraing. Ok on second google, yeah they have compared. It was a major research center in Oregon that told me that, so interesting.

You have had some bad luck with some unhealthy beasts lately, Fred, but I don't doubt you did everything possible and then some.

I shall now attempt to find the studies, and work out what they were using exactly.
There was a good rundown of some of it in the New York Times health section a while back--they had a whole series on migraine, but I think one blog post in particular that went over some of the things like feverfew, magnesium, and suchlike. My neurologist had encouraged me to take magnesium, but apparently I'm very sensitive to it--if I take too much (=the recommended dose by those studies and my neurologist) I get crazy itchy all over my body (not allergies though!).

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
(Fred and Hubs and cats, especially Victor) And yes, Fred, you are a dedicated and effective cat-carer.
Birthday Felicitations, Bonny! Will there be cake? Is there somebody there to set it on fire?
What?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
not one that compares weight bearing to non weight beraing.
In my ten-second review of the literature, it looks like the terms used are "high impact" and "low impact" rather than weight-bearing vs non-weight-bearing. I'd have to ask a sports medicine expert what the exact overlap is among those categories.

It looks like some of them use proxies that measure weight bearing. I was taking an authorities word for it instead of double checking and I was wrong.

Thanks friends!

No cake, but I just stuffed myself with my favorite neighborhood lunch. Bartleby has a bully stick. We are both chillaxin' in a major way.
It isn't an important bday, despite it's cool prime numberage. So. Lowest of keys.
