Not surprisingly, new research continues to debunk the theory that low-fat diets are the solution to our obesity epidemic. More studies need to focus on the evils of carbohydrates, sugars, and processed food in general.
“Our original hypothesis was that children who drank high-fat milk, either whole milk or 2% would be heavier because they were consuming more saturated fat calories. We were really surprised when we looked at the data and it was very clear that within every ethnicity and every socioeconomic strata, that it was actually the opposite, that children who drank skim milk and 1% were heavier than those who drank 2% and whole,” says DeBoer, who is also the chair-elect for the AAP Committee on Nutrition.

“Analysis of the mid-Victorian period in the U.K. reveals that life expectancy at age 5 was as good or better than exists today, and the incidence of degenerative disease was 10% of ours” as outlined by Paul Clayton and Judith Rowbotham in the paper “How the Mid-Victorians Worked, Ate and Died“. How could this be? Hasn’t the common knowledge been that the average life expectancy was only 40 years old? That poor diet resulted in horrible diseases and illnesses? Apparently once again the common knowledge is wrong, and has helped lead to the flawed nutritional guidelines promoted by our government. Not to mention the fixation on high-carb/low-fat diets which are slowly destroying the health of our nation.
If you are concerned about your health, take the time to research alternatives such as low-carb diets, primal fitness blueprints, and a return to our natural diet and physical activity.
A good primer that I can recommend is “The Primal Blueprint: Reprogram your genes for effortless weight loss, vibrant health, and boundless energy (Primal Blueprint Series)”
My cat is a naughty, naughty kitty. She likes to jump up on my counter and walk all over my General Electric induction cooktop. Normally this is not a problem, and just results in various beeps, buzzes, and flashing lights. However, the other day she was up on the cooktop, and somehow she activated the Control Lock feature. When this happens, the Control Lock red light comes on, and none (except the timer) of the other controls work.
The standard response from GE is to Press the Control Lock button for five seconds. This did not work in my case, and apparently also does not work for hundreds of other people. Seems GE is telling them they need a service visit, and they then charge the customer a minimum of $75 to “adjust” the control-lock sensor.
Let me tell you a secret that the General Electric hotline does not tell the customer. The Control Lock sensor does in fact work, it just is not lined up properly. To fix, take your palm and lay it flat across the control lock button, you will hear a beep, and then in 5 seconds, you will hear two beeps and the Control Lock will be off. This may take a bit of fussing with your palm to find the right place, but it does work.
Thank goodness I figured out, I had a pound of bacon with my name on it just waiting to get sizzled up.
I have been using Code Igniter and Ext JS 4 for several months. In that time, I have created a couple basic templates to display MySQL tables and perform CRUD on those tables. In addition, I have wanted to create some basic admin screens for the Core Igniter configured databases. In my configuration, I have multiple databases defined, using Code Igniter’s built-in support for multiple database access. So, given all of that, I have created a controller that will display all Code Igniter configured databases, list the contained tables, and allow you to display and edit those tables.
Right now the basic template supports simple pagination, as well as Adding, Deleting, and Updating records. While fairly full-featured, it does not yet handle remote sorting. In addition, I am sure you will find some minor display issues with data fields that are not your standard integer or varchar. I will look to address these later. As an added bonus, the template references Ext JS remotely, so you do not need to install Ext JS 4 for these admin screens to work. If you are interested in giving Ext JS 4 a try, this is a great way to explore with it.
One feature of this controller is that the panel for the table admin is dynamically generated. This will allow you to save the created JS file, and modify it to suit your needs. You can easily create very custom screens from this generated template.
If you would like to see updates, or have any issues, leave me a message here and I will try to address them.
You can download the zip file here.
To install, just add the enclosed files to your controllers and views directory and make sure you have a valid database configured.
