Obama declares swine flu emergency

I think the only reason they endured longer than the pink flamingoes it that they performed better when you needed something to lock your bicycle to.

Now, if someone could come up with one that had a 130 degrees of motorized jawing, set off by vibration, noise, motion or camera flash detection, you might have a resurgence in the product, especially if an uncorked example of American Iron had the same effect that they do to parked cars....

The real reason the big O has declared a "National Emergency" is simple. Some huge nurse's union is going to strike on the 30th of October. The union will effectively cripple California (the main base of the union), although the union has members throughout the USA. They will strike over safety concerns regarding face masks (to protect them from H1N1), and about the practice of understaffing of nurses at hospitals. Now then, once(or rather if) they go on strike, all the big O has to do is deem it illegal and/or nationalize the nurses---forcing them back to work. In other words, a large segment of healthcare will instantly become federalized---a back door to nationalized healthcare?

“That’s an interesting possibility. I was also wondering if he would use it to prevent people from gathering in church.”

Nothing that Rohm 0b0z0 does will surprise me. It is about seizing more power and control over Americans.

I would not recommend doing anything that your doc does not approve of, so if your doc is telling you 2000 per day, I would stick with that. That being said..here is the information:

“1.Take enough Vitamin D3 to get your 25(OH)D level above substrate starvation levels (50 ng/mL or 125 nmol/L). Levels of 50 ng/mL usually require at least 5,000 IU per day for adults, some adults will require more. Children should take 1,000 IU per every 25 pounds of body weight. After taking this dose for 3 months test your 25(OH)D level. Individual variation in dose response is great and natural 25(OH)D levels (50–70 ng/mL) are not assured by these doses. For reasons I will discuss below, I think it possible that Vitamin D levels of 30 ng/mL, which are often obtained by people taking low doses of Vitamin D (1,000–2,000 IU/day), may increase your risk of death from a 1918-like influenza virus.”

I recommend going to the site and reading through the information. I am only going to do it for a few months and then have my levels tested. Hope this helps.
