[ Fox] If you are interested in using shortening, you can go to

the lye calculator at www.the-sage.com/services/calculator to figure out

how much lye and water to use. this is a good idea so that you don't get a

recipe from someone that might have typed in errors! if it is soy

shortening, just put it in as soy oil (it has info on the page). if it is

crisco US style, I've been told to use safflower oil as an equivalent for

the lye calc.

good luck!

Subject: Mica & Coconut oil questions

Hey list buds-

Second, I got a gallon of coconut oil, but I expected it would come in a

pail... It's actually in a jug. So there it is, this solid coconut oil,

in a one gallon jug with a skinny little hole at the top, and the

inaccessible oil down under. What's the best way to go about this? I'm

thinking about melting it down and pouring it into mason jars- just

setting it in a pan of hot water til it melts down. Seems like melting

the whole thing each time wouln't be a good idea.

Also got some monoi de tahiti, the jasmine scented- Oh! It's heavenly!

Marie

[ Fox] I put the jug into the sink full of hot water. it

works.you can melt it down each time or melt it and put it into mason jars.

The only box of Borax I could find is: 20 mule Team

Borax Laundry Booster. It does not state it is 100%

borax...the only precautions on the box are:

~Contains Sodium Tertaborate Decahydrate

~Not for drug use.

Did I get the right kind???

Thanks,

[ Fox] that's the same kind I got!

" Read an extended interview with one of the researchers

working on BL22, which has yielded excellent results

in hairy cell leukemia. "

" The drug was tested on CLL patients, but since those

cells exhibit a lesser expression of CD22, the

response was less. "

Interesting... my husband's BMB showed that he had higher expression of

CD22,the target of BL22 (78%) than CD20, the target of Rituxan (57%).

I assume that this would suggest he may get a better reaction from BL22 than

from Rituxan?

His diagnosis was SLL/CLL (more SLL). He had many lymph nodes that are

slightly enlarged and a very enlarged spleen (which was removed in March).

A positive prgnosis for those of you facing THR, and answer (in part) to

the ceramic queries:

First, I am three weeks (Tuesday) post-op. I am writing this from my

office, to which I drove (only 3.5 miles, I admit). I am using a cane, but

only because my doctor and wife urge such prudence.

I have previously suggested that one positive step was that I used the

extra several months of awaiting my delayed surgery to do some extra leg

exercises at the YMCA which strengthened the leg, etc. Also, I had been

forced to stop long runs (Maras, then even 1/2 maras) then stop running at

all last fall because of hip.

The delay was to get the newly FDA approved ceramic hip.

the two manufacturers--and FDA approval and studies are linked at

activejoints.com

I was impressed by the study results, and the frustratingly meticulous

FDA process that led to the conclusion these ceramic hips were the wave of

the future.Because approval was only this year, there w

as a backlog--at least out here in the hinterlands of Olympia,

Washington.

For me, we'll see whether running is in the future, but the recovery

process has been remarkably quicker than expected, and naturally I project

results analogous.

When reviewing the post-op x-rays with my Dr., I noticed a " split " in

the leg spike part. He explained that was one of the refinements that

followed earlier testing. Some books, etc. refer to long-term thigh pain,

and the problem was with flex in the " spike " The visible " split " is the

solution.

Digest Number 102

[Guest guest]

Hi guys:

Went to the orthopods yesterday. I had the sutures removed. I couldn't

believe what I saw. He only put 3 sutures in each knee and steri-strips. The

wound doesn't look new. It looks as if it is at least 6 months old. No

newness whatsoever. He said when I see him on June 24th, I will be able to

use a cane. He also said that I would be able to use knee hi supports at

that time also. He is very pleased with my progress.

Today, I hit 116° on my right leg. The left leg is stuck at 103°.

I feel like I am ready to take off. It is going too good at just 3 weeks.

God grant me the Senility to forget the people I never liked anyway, the

good fortune to run into the ones I do, and the eyesight to tell the

difference.

Congratulations! I hope you continue to make rapid progress. You must be

pretty ecstatic at the prospect of actually USING your knees again. (8-)

Like they said in this medical article I just read, you don't even know you

have knees until they hurt.

Hi Ed Kasper, I have been trying to make an intelligent decision, which

water is best. Mostly thinking that distilled has to be the cleanest.

Minerals added in springs or nature would be useful if the water also

did not pick up pollution.

One can never win an argument. Listen and learn. I find I learn as much

or more from the person I disagree with. More firmly establishing what I

learned before.

I appreciate your explanation. I drink and cook with filtered mineral

water and make kombucha with distilled. First brewing the tea and then

adding the sugar dissolved in part of the water boiling. Takes 2 pans

but I feel it makes the best tea.

I hope we all can make allowance for each other not to feel our best at

times and for the other to have a different understanding. I appreciate

your input and everyone elses too. Regards, Virginia D.
