What If You Could Improve Fitness And Stimulate Lean Muscle Growth?
By Farrell Seah
Bovine colostrum is a natural, whole-food supplement that offers enormous health benefits to baby cows and humans of all ages. It is a perfect food source that is high in carbohydrates, proteins and antibodies, yet low in fat and very easy to digest.
Because it is the only form of colostrum not specific to the species producing it, bovine colostrum contains all the beneficial immune factors and growth factors found in all other colostrum sources, and these factors are biologically transferable to humans. This is not only a very interesting cow-fact, but also the secret behind many of the most important colostrum benefits.
Supplementation with bovine colostrum can strengthen the immune system’s ability to fight infection and disease, strengthen the body to increase energy and improve athletic performance, and maintain overall health by balancing the processes in the digestive tract. For these reasons, everyone can benefit from colostrum supplementation, and everyone should take advantage of these many colostrum benefits.
Fighting Infection and Disease
Colostrum benefits people fighting infection and disease by offering a concentrated source of immune factors and growth factors that address both the physical symptoms and underlying causes of several illnesses. The immunoglobulins and accessory immune factors in colostrum make it a completely natural and very powerful antibiotic.
Together, these immune factors can boost an underactive immune system to increase resistance to infection, or regulate an underactive immune system to temper the severity of allergies and autoimmune responses. Both immune factors and growth factors actively restore function to the gastrointestinal tract, preventing the passage of disease-causing pathogens through the intestinal lining, and slowing or stopping the progression of many gastrointestinal disorders and autoimmune diseases.
Staying Fit and Active
Colostrum benefits people who wish to stay fit and active by offering a balanced source of nutrition that helps keep the
body running smoothly. The growth factors in bovine colostrum stimulate lean muscle growth and promote the burning of excess body fat for energy, while its many immune factors work together to reduce the frequency and severity of infections caused by physical, environmental, and emotional stress.
Because growth factors are active in tissue repair, they can also serve to regenerate skin, nerve, bone, and cartilage in the body, making these particular colostrum benefits effective in reversing many of the signs and physical symptoms of aging.
Maintaining Overall Health
Colostrum benefits anyone who wishes to maintain their body’s overall health, or increase its resistance to infection and disease. In addition to immune factors and growth factors, bovine colostrum contains a variety of vitamins, minerals, and essential amino acids, making it a perfect first food for infants, and a perfect dietary supplement for people of all ages.
Through colostrum supplementation, a regular replenishment of immune factors serves to support the immune system by providing immunoglobulins (antibodies) that aid in the everyday removal of harmful invaders like viruses and bacteria, and promote gastrointestinal health.
Because of this ability to maintain a healthy gastrointestinal tract, colostrum may well be the best practical protection available against autoimmune disease, cancer, and other chronic conditions associated with gastrointestinal disorders. Further, it is completely natural and has no known side effects or harmful interactions with other supplements or medications.

The precedence of the factorial operator
Back when I added a factorial operator to my assembler,
the code only applied it to numeric literals because the code that implemented it appeared in the same function as parsing a numeric literal.
I only found the bug when I tried to apply a factorial to a subexpression in parenthesis,
for example,
-(2+1)!.
The fix was easy,
just move the code out of the numberic literal parsing routine rvalue() to rfactor() where the unary + and - occur,
as well as handing subexpressions.
But the fix lead to another issue?how to handle a sequence like -3!.
Should it error out since negative values aren't defined for factorial?
Or should it apply the factorial to ?3? and then the unary minus sign?
I asked the question over on Lobters and a very loose consensus seemed to be that factorial has a higher precedence than unary minus.
I also threw -3! at Wolfram Alpha
(that I forgot existed until I started doing some web searches on the question)
and it also handled factorial before unary minus.
So that's what I went with.
From what little I found on this topic,
it seems that -3! should indeed return -6 as an answer.
It also seems to be the mathematical convention that -32 should return -9 and not 9
(which is that my assembler returns,
as well as Microsoft Excel).
Fixing that issue would require a rewrite of the expression parser.
The Shunting Yard algorithm I use to handle precedence doesn't handle unary operators all that well.
Sigh.

?I am altering the deal. Pray I don't alter it any further.?
I know it was probaby inevitable,
but I still found it surprising and rather upsetting to see that our television updated itself and that we had to accept the new terms of service.
I'm not sure what would have happened had we refused.
Would it have bricked itself?
And what ?service? has changed that required new terms?
Sending back our watching habits to the mother ship?
Watching one more ad ad we turn it off?
Sigh.

A week of appointments
You would think that now that Bunny was home now that we could relax for a bit.
But nooooooooo!
We had to call today to schedule a follow-up visit at the house.
This follow-up visit is for tomorrow,
then a scheduled visit to Bunny's general doctor on Thursday,
and a follow-up visit to the orthopedist on Friday.
I don't think she's ever had this many scheduled medical visits before.
Nor so quickly.
Geeze.

A sprung Bunny
After nearly two months from breaking her shoulders,
Bunny is finally released from the rehabilitation center.
Her arms still hurt and she still has some range issues with her arms,
but nothing that requires her to remain in the center.
After signing a bunch of forms,
we were able to walk out,
and with no help,
she was able to get into the car.
We're home now.
I still have a few observations about the habilitation center.
- Everyday I was there
(and I was there every day)
in the main hall I would see a gentleman in a wheel chair.
He was always wearing a straw hat so he was recognizable,
and every time he saw me,
he would salute me and thank me for visiting.
I would always wave back and say, "you're welcome!"
I never noticed anyone seemingly visiting him though.
- Another gentleman I would see from time to time was a double amputee
(legs, just above the knees).
One day as I was aproaching the vending machines in the main hall,
he wheeled over to me and handed me $5 to get him a drink.
He had a very thick accent,
and it was hard to see where he was pointing to,
and yet,
I still managed to not give him what he wanted.
Twice.
I still feel very bad about that over two weeks later.
- Bunny's roommate was a frail old lady in her 90s, maybe
weighing 90 pounds (40kg) soaking wet.
She had incredible lungs though?every time she had her blood pressure taken,
it sounded like she was being murdered,
and it was loud enough that I'm sure everyone in the facility could hear her,
even on the second floor.
It was both literally and figuratively painful to hear.
- The kitchen staff would gladly give out a second helping if you asked.
Did I mention the food was quite good?
- Technically,
to exit the building,
you have to ask a staff member to open the front door.
I was there often enough to see how they would open the front door,
so I didn't need to find someone to leave the building if the receptionist was not at the front desk.
That did not help me if I was outside wanting to get in and the receptionist was not there.
- In the parking lots of the rehabilitation center,
none of the parking stops lined up with the parking spaces,
making for a rather confusing jumble of parking spaces.
While there might have been enough spots for two or three more cars,
because of the mismatching lines and parking stops,
cars would be parked haphazardly in the lots,
wasting space.

The sounds of silence
I'm at the rehabilitation center where Bunny is rehabilitating her broken shoulders and all the TVs in the place shut down,
and it's suddenly quiet.
Maybe not as silent as Rachel, Nevada,
or maybe when a Las Vagas casino lost power
(talk about dead silence?it was weird!),
but still,
it's eerie.

Extreme abstract staircase, Boca Raton edition
While Bunny was otherwise occupied with a nurse I took the opportinity to look around outside.
While there,
I found this odd staircase off the side of a path:
I'm not sure what the purpose of such a structure could be,
perhaps a place to sit down?
But there were benches along the path.
Perhaps stairs to Narnia?
Perhaps?

It's no surprise that the LLMs confabulate what I've worked on
While I am known to some of the LLMs
(link via Flutterby),
my own score
(or ?strength? as the site calls it) is in the upper two digit range.
It picked up that I'm a blogger,
but it also confabulated that I worked on the Apache module mod_python.
Heh ? close,
but no cigar!

Extreme aviary, Boca Raton edition
Bunny is doing as well as can be expected,
given that she really can't use her arms to get out of bed or a chair.
But she does like looking at the finches they have in the main hall:

Extreme Kobolds, Boca Raton edition
As my tires were being addressed at a local tire shop,
I meandered across the street to have lunch and browse at some stores to kill some time.
At a gaming store,
I came across this little fellow defending this terroritory:
He seemed very keen on keeping this corner of the store to himself.
I let him be.

How many English words to you actually know?
From the video ?How Many Words Do You ACTUALLY Know?? comes this quiz
VocabOwl: The Scientific Word Count,
which claims to measure how large of a vocabulary you know.
I took the quiz,
which asks for the definitions of 100 words
(twenty each from a basic list, intermediate list, advanced, export and grandmaster)
and from that,
estimates how many you know.
I missed 6 out of the 100 words
(two from the advanced category, and four from the grandmaster) and so,
according to this quiz,
my vocabulary consists of some 76,000 English words,
for what it's worth.

Speaking of left-handed people,
here's a video of why so many people are right-handed.
An executive summary might be, beacuse of our brains and how parts of it specialize for certain tasks.
It's worth a watch.
