    I don't know how old you are, but Osgood-Schlatter disease is a common cause of knee pain amongst active teenagers.

     

    Sjogren's syndrome should be excluded.

     

    TC is not very useful. HDL should be high, LDL should be low. Diet and exercise will improve this, alongside reducing your risk of heart disease in general, which is the only reason we care for cholesterol.

     

    Indy. I looked up Sjogrens. I got a lot of the systems... dry mouth, dry eyes, trouble swallowing, but i don't have the dry vagina, How do you diagnose it? Do i go to the doctor and say i think i have sjogrens or what? thanks.


  2. Here is an update

    This is the mount for the idler pulleys. I was using printed abs but after a month of tension in the belt the abs want really holding up, plus, i had to use long screws because the abs was thick...

    A view from underneath, showing some pocketed fasteners.

    This is the base of the motor mounts. The slots are to allow sideways adjustment of the motor, so that i can keep the belts parallel and at 90 degrees. I will cut slots in the aluminum tubing to tension the belts.

    Just another view from the underside...

    I really enjoy milling,  got a lot to learn but there is something satisfying about shaping metal into something, 


    Got a few pictures of the mill set up with dro as well. A lot of chips..

    I think ebay. is the best bed to get tooling, I got some nice end mills that are much higher quality than the grizzly set i bought for about half the price.... i want to get a corner-radius end mill set and maybe a face cutting end mill asap, but maybe after i get my small lathe.

  3. i don't know... 

     

    im glad you got the mri though...

     

    i have ave been feeling with severe neck aches that reoccur ever week or so as well as persistent dry eye and the doctors don't do anything. I think you have to visit a few times so they can get there money, but i don't have time to do that... a doctors visit is like three hours of my day... 


  4. I had a small delay. I decided to get a milling machine. It will increase the skookemness of my 3d printer as it will make all the parts more precise.... 

     

    i finally got it unpacked and unloaded :)

    Finally got the mill home and in place.  I still have a lot of set up to do. I need to extend an existing 20amp 240v circuit so I can power the thing... and need to install the digital read out. 

    The mill and stand weighs around 1000lbs ;).


  5. Honesty

     

    Attrition:

     

    Of words bounced off
    me and on to you.
    We aren't aren't saying playing
    until we do. after.

     

    We've crafted careful outs -
    snarky innocents.

     

    We are always right-
    I've asked her and she asked you.
    We all agree we are clever.

     

    Your words bounce off me
    and into your skull 
    like a bullet.

     

    Pull the trigger.
    But it's not about you.

  6. Emmy-winning documentary series like "Intervention" and "Born This Way" illustrate A&E Network's commitment to provocative, culturally relevant programming. Fitting perfectly alongside such projects is "Live PD," which shines a light on the hot-button issue of policing in America by presenting a transparent look at law enforcement on duty. Incorporating dash cams along with fixed rig and handheld cameras, the series captures the work of a mix of urban and rural police forces on a typical Friday night. As host, veteran journalist Dan Abrams gives insight into what viewers are seeing in real time.

     

    It comes on friday and saturday 9:00-12:00... anyone watch?


  7. Which shows did you have in mind, that the network forced the writers to keep writing... or got replacement writers?

     

    breaking bad? Sons of anarchy? Dexter? Was it Lost? Mmmmm

     

     

    In general, writers get paid to write... they aren't the ones who decide to end a series for that reason... not because the network wants to keep paying them to write hackneyed material..
