Finally, the answer to why TMers try to portray John Hagelin'sIgnoble Prize as a positive.

Drinking too much water can kill you. It strains the kidneys, decreases the salinity in blood, which makes it difficult for the kidneys to excrete the water out.

Nobody said it was an academic forum or a journalistic one or that you were anything but another poster. I think I read this in the book You're Not Sick You're Thirsty. And that's your some people in the health care industry?? A book by a quack? It was first published many years ago so I'm not surprised that new findings are available. And heaven forbid you check to see whether there are new findings rather than spewing out the old ones. Just too much bother, says Share to herself. Instead I'll cite some people in the health care industry to make myself sound all authoritative and all. I notice you carefully deleted what I said about the new findings, along with the URL to a story about them. Think you could be just a little bit more dishonest, Share? Sorry to spoil your ploy, but here's what you deleted again: As it happens, I'm challenging you. Recent studies in the British Medical Journal appear to show that the notion that if you're thirsty, you're already dehydrated, is false. Thirst (as one might expect on the basis of common sense) turns out to be a finely sensitive mechanism for determining one's degree of hydration. It seems that the meme you repeat was started by the manufacturers of sports drinks (GatorAde, etc.) in an attempt to increase sales, and has now become common wisdom.

Buck sez: Now there is hope because a proven technology of consciousness to create peace is available. This novel approach establishes a filter of coherence and order in collective consciousness in the present, which is capable of transforming the flow of negativity from the past into a more harmonious future. This technology is group practice of an advanced form of the Transcendental Meditation (TM) technique. Over 600 scientific studies show that TM practice reduces stress in the physiology, mind, and behavior of the individual. Even a small fraction of individuals in the population engaging in its advanced practice has been found to reduce stress in cities, states, nations, and the world, as seen by reduced war deaths, terrorism, and crime and increased cooperation, cultural exchanges, and creativity.

Discussion Tips: 1. Use bold or italic to emphasize words or phrases, or for quoting, but avoid using bold for the entire body of your message. 2. Some discussion group readers don't read rich text formatting such as bold, so compose your message for the lowest common denominator. 3. Try to use plain text to compose your messages - don't use fancy typefaces with words or letters in color. 4. Indicate quoted text with a right angle bracket. 5. Don't post flame-bait to the discussion group in an effort to start a war of words over how much water to drink every day.

[FairfieldLife] DHMO, was Drink More Water
Share Long: punditster wrote the other day: 3. If you're changing the subject, post it on a new thread. So, it's all about Share. DHMO is water - it is used in the TM initiation ritual, but I'm not sure if you're supposed to drink it after the initiation. Go figure. Judy obsesses on Share and is clueless that someone might simply be funning on FFL. GF! Maybe it's time to review some of the basic rules of netiquette. The Basic Rules of Netiquette: 1. Try to avoid funning around on a discussion group. 2. Try to avoid obsessing on particular respondents who might or might not be funning around on a discussion group. Note: Do not post any comments on a spiritual discussion group that would make the claim that DHMO plays any part in the TM initiation ritual.

If you're a fan of Ricky Gervais you'll probably like Derek which debuted last night on Netflix WI.

[FairfieldLife] Rules for Iowa
Maybe it's time to review some of the rules for Iowa. Rules for Iowa This list of rules should be handed to each person as they enter the State of Iowa: 1. That slope-shouldered farm boy did more work before breakfast than you'll do all week at the gym. He doesn't need your respect, but he sure deserves it. 2. It's called a 'gravel road.' No matter how slow you drive, you're going to get dust on your BMW. I have a four-wheel drive because I need it. Drive one or get your girlie-car out of the way. 3. We all started hunting and fishing when we were nine years old. Yeah, we shot Bambi; we got over it. 4. Any references to corn fed when talking about our women will get your butt kicked...by our women. 5. Go ahead and bring your $600 Orvis Fly Rod. Don't cry to us if a flathead breaks it off at the handle. We have a name for that little 13-inch trout you fish for ...bait. 6. Pull your pants up. You look like an idiot. 7. If that cell phone rings while a bunch of mallards are making their final approach, we will shoot it. You might hope you don't have it up to your ear at the time. 8. That's right. Whiskey is only two bucks. We can buy a fifth for what you paid in the airport. 9. The Hawkeyes and the Cyclones are as important here as the Lakers and the Knicks...and a dang sight more fun to watch. 10. No, there's no Vegetarian Special on the menu. Order steak. Order it rare. Or, you can order the Chef's Salad and pick off the two pounds of ham and turkey. 11. You bring Coke into my house, it better be brown, wet, and served over ice. 12. So you have a sixty thousand dollar car. We're real impressed. We have a quarter of a million dollar combine that we drive two weeks a year. 13. Let's get this straight. We have one stoplight in town. We stop when it's red. We may even stop when it's yellow. 14. Our women hunt, fish, and drive trucks-because they want to. So, you're a feminist. Isn't that cute. 15. Yeah, we eat catfish-carp, too-and turtle. You really want sushi and caviar? It's available at the bait shop. 16. They are hogs. That's what they smell like. Get over it. Don't like it? Interstate 80 goes two ways - I-35 goes the other two. Pick one. 17. The Opener refers to the first day of pheasant season. It's a religious holiday. 18. Yeah, we have sweet tea. It comes in a glass with two packets of sugar and a long spoon. 19. So every person in every pick-up waves. It's called being friendly. Try to understand the concept. 20. Yeah, we have golf courses. Don't hit in the water hazards. It spooks the fish. 21. Pull your pants up. You look like an idiot. Now, enjoy your visit to Iowa. Oh, and one last thought The s on the end of Des Moines is silent.
