Fans of the CBS post-apocalypse drama Jericho upset about the untimely 
cancellation of the series this year, which ended on a cliffhanger, 
are sending nuts to the network in order to get them to renege. 
Thousands and thousands of pounds of nuts! Says the ingenius fan 
campaign:

  Why nuts? In the final episode Jake Green (Skeet Ulrich) borrowed 
the historic phrase NUTS in response to a final offer of surrender 
from a hostile neighboring town. CBS decided to cancel the show, and 
fans are uprising to save Jericho by sending, you got it, NUTS to CBS 
executives.

To participate, spread the word, read more about it, or just to see

Awesome!

christian nuts trying to force IA supreme court to accept 10C plaque

State court rejects gift of Ten Commandments 
A group of Christians plans to rally today in support of the display of
historic documents.
By SHIRLEY RAGSDALE
Register Religion Editor
09/18/2003 

Iowa now has its own Ten Commandments debate involving the state's
judiciary building. 
A group of Christians will rally on the steps of the new building today
to urge court officials to accept a gift of what they see as historic
legal documents - including the Ten Commandments.
Court officials said they initially were interested in accepting the
gift, without the Ten Commandments. Later, State Court Administrator
David Boyd said he declined the framed display because it could be
viewed as an unconstitutional endorsement of religion by the state and
would therefore likely embroil the Iowa judicial branch in controversy
and possibly a lawsuit.

...

Just like what Nazi Germany did to the Jews, so liberal America is now
doing to the evangelical Christians. It's no different. It is the same
thing. It is happening all over again. It is the Democratic Congress, the
liberal-based media and the homosexuals who want to destroy the
Christians. Wholesale abuse and discrimination and the worst bigotry
directed toward any group in America today. More terrible than anything
suffered by any minority in history.

For the sake of your health, I think you are going to have to force
yourself to eat chocolate ice cream with nuts.  I know, it will be
like taking an old fashioned, bitter medicine, but however much you
dislike it, eating it  Will Be Good For You. :-)

Maybe I should eat it myself

If I'm going to eat nuts and chocolate ice cream, I'd like the two
separated by a couple of hours.  :)

Now, ice cream with whipped cream, that's another story altogether. 
(But I'm getting enough fat in other ways, and need to worry more about
protein, so that's not a terribly likely thing for me to eat anytime
soon.)

[Listref] FDA Approves Marketing of Nuts As Heart-Healthy

2003-07-18 Thread Deborah Harrell
Nuts as part of a healthy diet has been mentioned
before; now the FDA will allow some products to be
labeled as such:

http://my.webmd.com/content/Article/71/81253.htm?printing=true

This week the FDA approved the first qualified health
claim for almonds, hazelnuts, pecans, pistachios,
walnuts, and peanuts for use in advertising and
package labels. Packages of nut products that meet the
FDA's requirements will now be able to carry the
following claim: 

Scientific evidence suggests but does not prove
that eating 1.5 ounces per day of most nuts, as part
of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may
reduce the risk of heart disease. 

An ounce and a half serving of nuts is about a third
of a cup or a small handful. 

Only nut-based food products, such as plain nuts and
some nut butters, that meet the FDA's fat and
nutrition requirements will be able to carry the
label, not items such as chocolate-covered nuts or ice
creams with added nuts. 

In approving the qualified health claim, the FDA says
there is good scientific evidence to support the claim
that eating nuts reduces the risk of heart disease,
but the evidence is not entirely conclusive. It's part
of a new FDA program that ranks scientific evidence
behind health claims of food products... 

...Although the unsaturated, good fats found in
nuts probably play the most important role in nuts'
cholesterol-lowering effects, researchers say nuts
also contain several other ingredients that may also
reduce the risk of heart disease, such as fiber,
arginine (an amino acid), magnesium, antioxidants like
vitamin E and selenium, and phytochemicals... 

But I'm gonna have to disagree with 'em about the
chocolate ice cream with nuts...ya got yer calcium,
yer chocolate, yer magnesium, AND yer
phytochemicals...

 Nuts lower diabetes risk, not fattening
 Thursday, 28 November  2002
 Nuts can dramatically reduce your risks of
 developing type 2 diabetes
 
 Eating nuts substantially lowers the risk of
 developing type 2 diabetes and 
 does not lead to weight gain, a large-scale American
 study of women has 
 found - a result that is likely to also apply to
 men.

And an article I posted for our office health news:
http://my.webmd.com/printing/article/1671.53518

...Compared with men who were not big nut eaters,
those who ate nuts at least twice a week were about
half as likely to fall victim to sudden heart death.
And the nut eaters were 30% less likely to die from
heart disease, according to researcher Christine M.
Albert, MD, MPH, of Brigham and Women's Hospital in
Boston, and colleagues...

...Lichtenstein says it's most likely the omega 3
fatty acids found in nuts that provide protection
against the heart rhythm problems that can lead to
sudden death. 

Researchers say walnuts contain especially high
amounts of these fatty acids compared with other types
of nuts. Nuts are also rich in magnesium, potassium,
and vitamin E, all of which have the ability to
protect the heart, according to the researchers. In
addition, nuts contain substances known as flavonoids,
which have recently been shown to reduce the risk of
heart-related deaths. 

Flavanoids are also found in green and black tea.
