  1. I'm led to believe and have posted inks in support of the following. 1. Older people need significantly more protein than younger people to avoid sarcopenia. 2. The minimum recommendation is 1 gram per kg of body weight and up to 2 grams for seniors. For a 70 Kg person like me, that's well over 100 grams of protein per day. There is no possible way to achieve that on a fruits and nuts diet. I'm in complete agreement with the other nutrients and I do eat a variety of fruits and nuts, including avocados and pumpkin seeds most days. Just not for the protein which is minimal.
  2. I avo contains 3 grams of protein. You'd need to eat a truck load of fruit and vegetables every day to get 100 grams of protein, which is still a low level for seniors.
  3. The recommendation is still 2 or 3 serves of fruit per day, including for diabetics. The American Diabetes Association reports that any fruit is fine for a person with diabetes, so long as that person is not allergic to that type of fruit. In fact, studies such as one from 2017Trusted Source have found that a higher fruit intake is significantly associated with a lower risk of type 2 diabetes. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/311220#fruits-to-limit
  4. The original claim was rape because Carrol obviously believed it was. If the jury found he committed sexual assault then but can't prove penetration then you think there should be no damages? The motion will join the plethora of frivolous court filings Trump has made.
  5. I believe you do get portability immediately after 2 years in australia before eligibility. OAP is a little over 2k, dole about half.
  6. I'm sure it's pro rata. So it would pay you to do the time before 67 rather than after.
  7. I'm fairly sure it's residency, not working. You can be unemployed and it would not be deducted from this eligibility. I did look it up recently but my memory is shot. The issue for me is many years outside Australia where I worked but did not work in Australia while still counting as resident of Australia.
  8. There is a minimum number of years to live in Australia over the age of 16 before your pension gets pro-rated I think it's 35. If you are close to this number the 2 years living in Australia before entitlement may help put you over it or reduce your deduction if you are under it. This may be true or not true ????
  9. I suspect that the bar with the rainbow colored seats may not have a live band lately?
  10. I wouldn't discount the possibility that Trump was just pumping up the status of that doc or even mischaracterising it's contents altogether, just to brag to his donors. Milley has denied writing it so it may be just like the Biden tapes, all hat and no cattle.
  11. It seems that many of the denizens of those states don't want the vote, they'd rather secede.
  12. I think that "didn't originate" is weasel words to avoid admitting directly that Giuliani wrote the FD-1023. The spurious argument seems to be that the notion wasn't totally dreamed up by Giuliani himself.
  13. I'm not angry. I just can't find anything credible that says a fruitarian diet is healthy. Apparently, neither can you.
  14. I used to be a huge Monty Python fan but Cleese just talked me out of shelling out 2K to go see him, not counting the fare to Bangkok and back to Pattaya. Anybody who is inclined to use the phrase "politically correct", the old "woke", as a substitute for "socially aware" gets a fail from me.
  15. This claim "Great way to heal stomach issues and cleans". I'm not denying the nutritional value of fruit but a fruitarian diet is highly dangerous. Just google it isn't acceptable round these parts. The moon is made of cheese, just google it.
  16. I believe that's true. Last night Tree Town on soi moo cow was packed and most bars along that soi had drinkers. The back bars were quiet as were the LK Metro bars. It did still seem noisy to me just walking along the street.
  17. Link to this claim please? I'm not referring to the difference between sugar and fructose.
  18. If Trump willfully removed documents from a place where they were legally required to be kept them he stole them. It's long been proved that it wasn't inadvertent in Trump's case as it was inadvertent in Biden's case. Mens Rea is a fundamental legal precept that goes to intention.
  19. no. It depends on the context. The advice was given in the context of reducing weight and insulin resistance. I don't doubt that many people have eaten potatoes and rice for centuries. Mainly, however, the potatoes and rice weren't traditionally white. Young people can eat anything if they are active but old people should largely avoid those foods.
  20. If Trump were to drop out or fail to be nominated, both highly unlikely in my opinion, there would be tremendous pressure on Biden to withdraw his nomination. That would eliminate the Kamala Harris problem as well. My pick would be Sheldon Whitehouse who has made it a mission to expose the dark money behind the Federalist Society and the supreme court picks. He's also been highly critical of Clarence Thomas. Whitehouse has a very sharp mind indeed.
  21. The message has been received. Lima Charlie. Retired Major League Baseball pitcher-turned-right-wing commentator Curt Schilling told Fox News host Jesse Watters on Friday that "somebody is going to have to pull a trigger" in retaliation to the criminal charges that were filed against former President Donald Trump by United States Justice Department special counsel Jack Smith. https://www.rawstory.com/donald-trump-curt-schilling/
  22. In a legal filing made late Friday, attorneys working for special counsel Jack Smith notified the court that information they will be handing over to Donald Trump's attorneys as part of the discovery process will contain some information on "ongoing investigations" that could lead to new charges. According to a report from Alan Feuer of the New York Times, those documents also contain information about "uncharged individuals.” Now that the former president has been arraigned in a Florida courtroom on 37 federal counts that include alleged violations of the Espionage Act, prosecutors are pressing forward with normal court procedures and the notice given on Friday puts Trump's lawyers on notice that there is likely more to come. https://www.rawstory.com/jack-smith-trump-2661459240/
