It's interesting to see what other cultures eat for breakfast. I've been places where rice and soup was a normal breakfast.

Wow Denise, it's really wonderful of you to share your research and experience on this. I'll try your recipe for thicker, denser hair! Many thanks!

Thank you Katie, I was trying to tweek the humorous side of seriousness, I think I might have succeeded a tiny bit.

Hi Denise, didn't know pumpkin seed oil is good against hair loss. I'll get some for myself too, and mix it with olive oil, and, perhaps, some nettle tincture? Would that work?

Oh Jo, this was a fabulous article! I read it with bated breath. I, too, saw a mug with Keep Calm and Carry On here at Whittard's. It did sound rather strange; I couldn't make head or tail of it. I imagined it was meant to sound funny, and yet it managed to sound so ominous. Now I know why.

Good you wrote this article, Katie! I also wonder about plastic containers in the freezer. Our ice cream over here is in plastic containers -- I wonder how safe those are; and of course, people save those (instead of buying something like Pyrex) and reuse them to freeze stuff.

Of course!

we are having a Lalaloopsy party for my soon to be 4 yr old in 2 weeks ... thank you for the addition ideas

I appreciate the response JoHarrington.

I actually copied those comments over from the Runescape Official Forums. Someone on there told people to google search 'Will Capitalist Horing Be Jagex's Downfall?'. I found this as quickly as I had typed it in the computer.

Unfortunately, the post that gave out the title was made hidden. Jagex must not want people spreading the negativity.

The sad tragedy in all this is the money men going over to a lot of video game companies and liquidizing them. Especially on Runescape where I've spent a significant amount of time into developing my character.

It wasn't uncommon for me and many other players to play Runescape during the summer on a day in, day out basis.

You may of not noticed it, but in the months and years after Insight Venture Partners first stepped foot into obtaining shares from Jagex, the game started it's downhill path.

It was more of a tricking effect though, not quite at the accelerated speeds this game is experiencing today. Hard to say when and where the declines started to happen, but in short, they became noticeable shortly before the Trade Limit was imposed.

Thank you for mentioning that Insight is not only after Jagex, it's after every company it can get it's hands on. By the time they own a portion of the shares, people notice the changes pretty quickly.

Hello Mira, thank you for your kind comments. I'm glad that you found the piece interesting and educational. I wanted to link to the Harvard study, but was unable to find a complete copy online; just snippets from other sources. I will keep looking, though. And if I find it, I will add it in. Thanks again.

Hello WiseFool, this was a super interesting article, with that analogy with the natural world (other animals that don't drink milk past their weaning age), with animal-derived calcium being eliminated in your urine, with that Harvard study (why not add a link to it?) linking animal milk and brittle bones, and with all the useful information on where to find calcium in veggies and fruits.

Oh, that soup, with the beans and garlic and ginger sounds delicious! I will see how/if I can get mung beans here.

My sister is left handed and I made a mug at Zazzle for her (a left-handed mug of course!)

It's good to know how to run the most challenging of races, I always wondered how an athlete would approach succeeding at such an intense race. I'm loving the Olympics.
