The Crucial Reason You Need More Gelatin in Your DietHealthy Living
I know what you're thinking.
What's with the disgusting photo Sarah? Isn't this post supposed to be about gelatin? I'm eating for heaven's sake. That picture is making me lose my appetite!
Before you click away in haste, hear me out.
I agree. That is one nasty photo.
I decided to use it to help make a crucial dietary point, believe it or not.
The World Is a Toxic Place Even In Places Where It Should be Pristine
The point is that our world has become a toxic soup and the situation is getting worse by the day. I say this not to depress you (I am not depressed about it .. I am deeply concerned but not depressed), but to wake you up to reality if you think you are avoiding toxins in your everyday life.
Dioxin, the chemical by-product of numerous industrial processes that is toxic to the human body, is stored in body tissues and considered a persistent environmental pollutant, has been found at the North Pole. Think your seafood from Northern Waters is clean?
There is a large vortex of garbage roughly twice the size of Texas swirling out in the middle of the Pacific Ocean that keeps growing with each passing year.
The grouper in the Gulf of Mexico are so deformed from the BP oil spill I'm told by fishermen friends that I have decided not to eat it anymore even though I just love grouper sandwiches.
Hike off many country roads in small towns or large – doesn't seem to matter – and you will find garbage and illegally dumped chemicals everywhere that are no doubt seeping into the ground water.
I don't want to even talk about Fukushima – it just breaks my heart too much having traveled extensively in that beautiful country and having some very dear friends who live not far from Reactor #4.
Get the idea?
How do we deal with the toxic soup we are forced to live in everyday? You can certainly reduce your exposure by eating organic foods, clean grassfed meats and dairy and avoiding pesticides and other chemicals in and around your home, but there are still numerous other sources that you probably don't even know about that are assaulting your system on a daily basis.
Now for the Good News
A very simple thing in your diet like lots of gelatin via homemade bone broths goes a long way toward helping your body deal with whatever toxins you are exposed to.
Bone broths help with detoxification?
Yes they do. Bone broth is not just a boon to the entire digestive process. It is a huge help to the liver too!
Never heard of bone broth also commonly known as stock? Click here to see my numerous video lessons on the subject.
Natural Gelatin In Bone Broths Helps the Detoxification Process
The natural gelatin present in bone broths helps detoxify the body because it is loaded with the amino acid glycine which assists the liver with its housecleaning duties. The simplest of all the amino acids, glycine can be produced by the body and is therefore not considered essential, but the ease of the body in manufacturing the glycine that is needed to keep the detoxification process running effectively is probably highly contingent upon whether a person is in radiantly good health!
Since the ability of the liver to do its job sufficiently is limited by the amount of glycine that is available, it makes sense to provide the body with all the glycine it could possibly need!
Glycine in Gelatin Helps Normalize Liver Function
Gelatin not only helps the liver do its job effectively. It also helps the liver function normally if it is having problems.
Dr. Reuben Ottenberg in 1935 suggested in the Journal of the American Medical Association that patients with jaundice or other liver problems be administered 5-10 grams of gelatin per day as food or via a powdered gelatin supplement to supply additional glycine to the diet in order to encourage normalized hepatic function.
Consuming Lots of Gelatin is Must in Such a Toxic World
Given the toxicity of our world today and the high level of chemicals in our air, water, and food, a large amount of glycine in the diet is one very crucial and important way to assist the body with the nearly constant detoxification that is required to maintain health.
The best way to get lots of natural gelatin into your diet is to make bone broths and incorporate them into your diet on a frequent basis with sauces and soups.
If you don't consume bone broths either alone or as part of soups and sauces nearly everyday, however, you may wish to consider a natural gelatin supplement.
Powdered gelatin can be added to smoothies which is a great option in hot weather when the thought of a steaming hot bowl of soup is not very appealing. While protein powders are not a healthy choice due to the high processing involved to make them, powdered gelatin is a wonderful alternative and it adds protein to a smoothie as well as plenty of glycine for detoxification.
Powdered gelatin can also be added to bone broth that hasn't gelled very much to ensure that when the bone broth is used in soups and sauces, adequate gelatin is being consumed with each serving.
Be aware that powdered gelatin contains trace amounts of MSG, so if you are super sensitive you may need to avoid it. I myself am very sensitive to MSG and have not experienced any problems with powdered gelatin provided it is a quality source.
Where to Source Gelatin and Bone Broth
Be aware that not all gelatin is created equal! There are quality sources of gelatin and those that are not as desirable. If you are going to go to the trouble of sourcing gelatin, make sure that the quality is sufficient to truly help you with your detoxification goals.
Please refer to my Resources page for vendors of the highest grade of 100% pure gelatin available that is tested for BSE/mad cow disease. This is the same brand I have in my own pantry and have used for years.
You can also buy organic bone broth if you prefer actual food to a supplement. Click here for a list of vendors who will ship frozen organic chicken or beef broth in BPA free packaging right to your front door.

I don't eat meat… I've been vegan for a while and am trying to heal my gut before adding in eggs/fish/poultry…. Since I'm not getting any real protein source from animal products (I'm not doing legumes or grains either) would taking gelatin/collagen help me or would it cause an amino acid imbalance since it is not a complete protein?
If you are a vegan, you can't consume gelatins of any kind as they are all animal sourced. Beef, pork, fish, etc. You could take veggie gelatin, but that would not serve the purpose you describe. Sorry.
As a vegan yes you can………a lot of vegans benefit from adding the great lakes kosher grass feed beef gelatin. Some vegans become malnurished and quickly feel lethargic and end up with other health issues . I feel very tired when I went vegan and quickly added meat back in . I felt sick tired and my immune system was not as poweful anymore . Everybody is different but if me I would add to diet . It is 2014 we don't have to stick to the old theory . Your health comes first . Do your research with google and you will see viral post about it and youtube too. I say do it.
For anyone else coming along: If you've been vegan a while and you have gut issues that need healing, best thing you can do is put aside the veganism thing and go straight to animal foods. Best way to consume those animal foods is as soups and stews, properly cooked, preferably in a slow cooker for at least 8 hours. You want the meat nice and soft. If you keep skipping the animal foods and try to heal your gut with plants you are not going to get very far. We simply do not have the ruminant's GI tract and plant fibers tend to be irritating, especially soluble fiber (this is why it causes food to transit faster through your gut!).
Look up the GAPS diet for more info. They've got a whole plan set out on their website.
Meat stock will be gentler and more soothing to your stomach. I'd start with that rather than bone broth.

I'm healing from Celiac's disease and have been recommended making bone soups to help heal my intestinal walls by my naturopath. I also happen to have the herpes virus which I see after reading this blog, soups may cause an outbreak. I just started eating the broth two days ago (and 3 times a day because I'm following the intro to the Specific Carbohydrate Diet) , so I'll let you know if I get a herpes outbreak.
Question: Why is every body buying the powdered form of gelatin instead of making your own stock? I was nauseous after going gluten free due to the leaky gut developed by celiac's disease. I got off all supplements for two months and my nausea stopped almost immediately. I'll try making my own broth first. What is the advantage of eating a store bought powdered form??
Second question, it feels like a real energy sucker cooking the bones on the stove for so many hours. How many hours would you cook chicken bones in a crock pot?
You can do bone broth in a fraction of the time using a pressure cooker. I have an electric counter top cooker. My absolute favorite appliance in the kitchen. Though chicken bone stock can be done in about 90 minutes I will reset another 30 to 60 minutes. Beats 8 to 24 hours and gels very very nice. I actually make and consume more by pressure cooking it rather than long drawn out traditional ways of cooking it and an feeling immensely better. Just Google cooking bone broth in the pressure cooker for more info and how to.

This web-site is certainly as an alternative helpful considering that I am together with the second developing an online floral web-site in spite of the fact that I am only commencing out like a result it is truly relatively little, nothing whatsoever similar to this web internet site. Can internet site website link to some from the posts appropriate here because they are fairly. Many many thanks considerably. Zoey Olsen
I submit that gelatin is so processed down to it's basic component, that source doesn't matter. At that level gelatin from even a factory farmed animal should be the same as from a more desirable animal. I mean, the fatty acids are gone, and so is everything else, except the gelatin. All this about detox I don't buy it. Now I realize that the colors and sweeteners in the dessert gelatin are probably not ideal, but from a "getting your gelatin" standpoint, I believe all gelatin is equal. Amino acids are amino acids. If that can be proven wrong, then please do.
Agree, Tom. Amino acids ARE amino acids and you can get the same plus more from just eating meat….which does NOT "detox" anyone. That is what your liver and kidneys do….

Is this gelatin good? http://m.iherb.com/now-foods-beef-gelatin-natural-powder-5-lbs/21258?at=0
I have that but not sure…an it's like a year old now
YES, a thousand times, YES! I had to order my Great Lakes gelatin online, but once I got it, I jumped in with both feet. I started taking about 2-3 tablespoons a day. In less than a week, my skin totally changed, no more breakouts, it's not oily anymore, and it feels like the rest of my skin. But the best thing is that it completely eradicated my PMDD! I used to have an extremely low stress tolerance, and I hated it. It was a thousand times worse the week or so before my monthly. I had been praying for an answer, and the gelatin is it!! I have farm raised beef soup bones in my freezer for broth and I intend to consume gelatin on a regular basis. It's been nothing short of a miracle cure for me! All glory to God!
I'm so glad you wrote about it helping with your monthly stress levels! I am currently struggling with this yet again and would love something to help balance me out! Are you still taking it and is it still helping?
I hope someone can help me with some concerns I have about Great Lakes gelatin.
I've read about the benefits of gelatin and 'everyone' seems to recommend Great Lakes gelatin. I found some GL gelatin locally, but it was porcine gelatin, not the beef variety that is typically recommended. So I went to the Great Lakes site to try to find out about the difference between the porcine and beef gelatin.
The pigs are (apparently) not pasture-raised or naturally fed. This is what I read on the Great Lakes site:
…"What are the hogs fed?
Those hogs raised in farm areas get their daily normal feed (raw corn, pellets, selected waste foods from restaurants, and grocery stores). Cloistered hogs are fed raw corn, selected grain pellets, and a variety of natural foods from various food markets when available."
That sounds more like conventional and factory raised pigs to me. The beef is from South America and (apparently) grass-fed, but it's concerning when the pigs can get "waste foods from restaurants and grocery stores" along with pellets and corn (I'm sure it's not organic, so -> gmo).
Here's what GL says about the cows:
…"How are the cattle raised?
Our cattle are grass fed and slaughtered in Argentina and Brazil which is controlled by their respective Department of Agriculture. These countries have the same type of rigourous tests and inspections as the United States. Beef hides are the only product used to manufacture gelatin in these countries."
I'd like to try gelatin (I want to try to make gummy treats for one thing), but I feel a little hesitant after reading that info about the GL porcine gelatin!
Anyone have any information or thoughts?
Hey fellow Foodsters,
I have a question… I am in the Gulf area (Sarasota, Fl) and just made grouper bone broth. I've been doing research tonight and found it to be pretty high in mercury. Did I just breath in a chemical cloud in my house for the past day? Since it is liquid, am I injecting mercury straight to my blood/organs, BRAIN? ARHHHH! Totally obsessed, I'll relax though. Should I still consume it?
Thank you, I love you all in advance for taking your time helping out a fellow Fish Eating Monster!
Hi, Sarah.
Very informative article (like always). I have a question for you though. I accidentally bought some porcine gelatin (Great Lakes brand) a while back and wondered if I can use it as a substitute for the bovine gelatin. Other than the obvious difference, can you tell me why a person would use one or the other?
Many thanks,
thank you for this info. I have been on a search to find good gelatin for my family. I live in canada and great lakes will not ship beef gelatin here. Do you think the pork is worthwhile? do you know of any reputable makers of beef gelatin in canada? your help is much appreciated!!!
The photo of the refuse pile is not pretty, but upon looking more closely, I see that this may be a hopeful sight after all. The pile is made up of old appliances, like washers and dryers. This looks like one big appliance scrap metal recycling pile!!
So grateful to have encountered the concept of using gelatin in lieu of homemade bone broth when I am traveling and unable to bring nor make broth. I have been on the GAPS diet for six months and I don't want nor need to forego my vacation while on this diet!
Pingback: Homemade Gummy Vitamins
What if you have the herpes virus? Gelatin is very high in arginine. Does this also include chicken broth that you make yourself by boiling chicken? Also, is the skin what's making the gelatin? And if you eat it right away without freezing it or putting it in the fridge will that prevent gelatin from being produced. I know chicken broth is good for you but main question is is it still good for you when you have hsv because I know the actual chicken is?
Lee Torrence
Jon, I just started eating bone soup as part of the intro to the Specific Carbohydrate Diet. I'm drinking it 3 times a day for 3 days. I'll let you know if I get an outbreak because I have the virus.

The nasty picture on this page became a reality to us after hurricane Sandy destroyed our home on the Barrier Island in NJ…that is exactly how the front yard of home looked after the ocean water flooded our house with over 3 feet of water" ocean water" and the smell was unbelievable…although we love the beach the ocean is truly afloat with many toxins…I'm new to your blog and agree with your thoughts on bone broth, it's my favorite drink…I even take all the bones from a rotisserie chicken freeze them until I have 3 or 4 to cook down ad make fresh stock…I then freeze the stock and use it frequently…I always have bone broth in my freezer …thanks for the info …I look forward to using your site often…
Thanks, Sarah. I really enjoy your posts! ..big fan of perpetual broth. My question is, regarding your awareness of how polluted ocean waters are, how can we know if our FCLO is toxin free? I have asked so many traditional diet bloggers this question and not ONE will reply. I hate not having my family take it anymore but there are so many reports of extremely toxic products coming from ocean waters. What do you think?
I also have that big concern and I would also like someone knowledgeable to answer that with some data.
The last time I bought 2 bottles of FCLO I could tell they were different from all the others I bought before. Taste, smell, colour and the liquid itself were very different… not for the better. They were fresh but seemed rancid.
Maybe someone will answer to this.

I was just curious. I followed the link in the article where it was supposed to tell us what kind of getatin you bought when you needed some extra to have at home. I never could find it in your resource list. Thanks for all the great info you give us.
I bought the gelatin brand suggested in this blog. the recommendation on the bottle is 1 capsule 4 times throughout the day. This caused me so much gas. I'm cutting back to one per day to see how my body reacts. So is this resulting gas considered a detox reaction? thank you for your suggestions/feedback
hi to all, well the other day I make chicken stock and add the vinager as Sarah sugested it( I never made it that way ) but I did not like how it taste.
Sarah it is true people with herpes 2 tipe can not have gelatine .my husband is suffering from that since about 2 years( genital herpes) he put some stuff there from walgreens, is painful, but go away but in a couples months comeback, any sugestion please,I'm driving crazy with that stuff( hate it )thanks,maggie
I don't like my broth if I add apple cider vinegar but I have found that I do like it if I use white wine vinegar. Not sure how much this affects the nutrition but I just can't eat it with the apple cider vinegar. Maybe experiementing with different vinegars would make it taste better to you.
I am new here in comments but I have read your blog over year now. My grandmom would be very happy to reat it. I live in europe, Austria and part of my family in Slovakia. I had period of beiing raw vegan green smoothie girl but glad I am back. My grandmom never ever buy anything from store she had her cow fro milk butter cheese, she made her no yeast breat from her grains(yes she growed her grains she had big garden) she never ate spinach salad in winter only in spring summer when she had it in garden the same with fruit that is why you not like it i winter it is not natural to have fruit in winter cause in nature there is no fruit in winter. She had her own hen for eggs in garden and making her own fermented veggies that is different like you make in us, I am glad she teached me how to make it. In that way it keeps whole autumn winter( 4-5 months) without refrigerator. And finally when I was sick she would made me bone broth not green smoothie!!!! Actually bone broth is very traditional here we make it every sunday and keep it till middle of week. Thanks for many posts
Hi, I make bone broth every day for my family. I want to share an experience we had from reading this post. My husband had his mercury fillings removed (safely) last fall. For a while, he felt great, but then his body started to detox, and recently he has felt drained, from the mercury detox. When Sara posted this about gelatin being good for detox, I wondered whether my broth was making my husband detox too quickly. So he stopped drinking the broth a few days ago, and he has felt great! We are so glad, because this detox has been a struggle for him.
So, I am getting two things from this experience: 1. Yes, gelatin *is* good for detoxifying! And 2. be aware that bone broth/soup might not make you feel better, especially if you have mercury toxicity problems. I do not have any mercury, and I love drinking the broth — makes me feel great!
What about Great Lakes' Collagen Hydrolysate. It's convenient b/c it doesn't congeal in smoothies, but is it safe?
So "jello" made with fruit juice or flavored tea is acceptable way to get some gelatin in kids? They love it so I hope so! Thanks for all you do, Sarah!
Sarah, The Healthy Home Economist
Esther, have you read the post? I'm not talking about processed jello junk from the store. I'm talking about natural gelatin from bone broths. Please refer to the post for details which has links to videos showing this traditional cooking method if you are not familiar with it.
I make "jello" from juice and Great Lakes gelatin quite frequently NOT the stuff in a box:-) I guess I just don't know of a better word to call it other than "jello".
john barnhart
But processed jello junk from the store is pretty much natural gelatin from bone broths. That is how they make it. It certainly isn't "artificial gelatin" from some sort of strange chemical reaction. It is either bone gelatin or carrageenan. They do process it to get rid of anything other than the gelatin, so it doesn't taste like meat.
Sure, Jello adds artificial flavors and lots of sugar, but you can get just plain old gelatin at the store. (http://www.amazon.com/Knox-Unflavored-Gelatin-1-lb/dp/B001UOW7D8)
Of course, bone broths have a lot of OTHER nutrients, like calcium.
John Barnhart
Once again, chicken soup is good for you. Didn't you listen to your grandmother?
What about marshmallows? I'm all for eating more marshmallows!
Hi Sarah
We use alot of broth in soups and cooking but we find it really hard to drink. Do you have any tricks on making it easier to drink if it is not your thing.
Thank you again
I was really surprised when I was forced to drink my broth straight when I had a tooth removed surgically. I added some sea salt after I heated it up and put in a.mug and it was delicious. Try adding a little more salt.
Try adding extra fat or oil. I add coconut oil or butter if the bones do not have fat on them. This improves the flavor quite a lot and is a good way to increase the beneficial fats in the diet. Also try adding more salt, as mentioned already.
Hi Sarah
Thank you for this wonderful article. I am just wondering if Gelatine sheets do the same job as powdered gelatine. ie I have a brand pgf bio organic leaf gelatine-which is a german certified product.
Thank you again
Is it ok to can broth?? We raise our own chickens, so when we butcher I cook all the bone-y pieces and make a rich broth. But it always makes so much, we do a lot of chickens, so it fills my freezer up too much. Thanks for a reply.
Home-canned broth is my favorite canned thing! After butchering chickens, I boil them. Then I pick off the meat and put it into a quart sized widemouth jar, covering with the broth. There is a LOT of broth left over, and I put that in separate jars and can it too! Follow your manual for the meat times. Remember, you have to PRESSURE CAN non-acidic foods (meats and broths included). I love canned broths to make everything from rices and pilafs to soups, stews, and casseroles. Enjoy!
Lois…for whatever reason my rss didn't show up. We'll be running a pressure canner sale next week at http://www.pantryparatus.com so if you don't have one, come by and "see" us.
Thanks!! I will have to check it out. I do have a pressure cooker, but an old one and it has quirks about sealing right.:( It gets the job done, but takes a while if it doesn't seal right away. And yes, I pressure can the broth, but freeze the meat after I pick it off the bones, it is just from the backs, shoulders/necks, after I cut the main cuts of meats off. So it's not much meat at all. thanks for answering!!
I finally read all the posts and found your brand. Sorry for the redundancy! =)
I clicked on your link for resources of geletin supplement info and I could not find it. Would you be so kind and give me the link and/or name of product?

@Robin – Sure, pork stock is fine. Just get the bones from pigs out on pasture running around if you possibly can.
Robin Clark Kuppusamy via Facebook
I have never made this kind of stock – on purpose. I got a roasted chicken from a local store that was an organic free range chicken. I used the bones to make stock but freaked out when I saw it looked like gelatin. I made a few calls and everyone said to throw it out those chickens used for roasting at the store were not good for making broth. LMAO today! My father in law, from India, would chew on the bones for the marrow and gelatin and touted the benefits…I didn't believe it but I keep seeing all these kinds of articles. I have am making a pork broth – does it matter what animal it comes from?
Which brand of gelatin do you recommend? I went to the resources page but couldn't find a listing for gelatin.
thehealthyhomeeconomist via Facebook
The testing is a good aspect plus I do prefer to buy things made in this country and shipped as short a distance as possible.
Thanks for this important information. I didn't realize it was a good liver detox, will start using it a lot more now.
Diane | An Extraordinary Day
We started making bone broth this winter for the first time. As the weather warmed and I got busier I neglected to make it. I was amazed that I could tell such a difference in my body. With bone broth/soup – I had no inflammation in my elbows, hands, or feet. Working in the yard, I had more energy and no soreness afterward. This week…I roasted my chicken and my bones are cooking in the slow cooker as I write. I can't wait to have my broth again. I'm a believer.
Thanks for sharing the gelatin resources.
Unless you have the herpes II virus. With that, gelatin is not your friend – it increases outbreaks.
Carol, can you point to studies that discuss gelatin causing herpes outbreaks?
Does powder gelatin mix well with water? Might be a silly question but does it thicken it? If not, I would love to combine it with some protein powder that I consume post-workout. My protein powder is nothing but whey isolate (unflavored) and I mostly use it post-workout, never as a meal replacement.
I clicked through to the resources page and there's nothing showing up under the supplements section. I've tried viewing it through Firefox and Internet Explorer too.
The resource page says the brand "Bernard Jensen" at Radiant Life – I actually had a hard time finding it on the resource page too but it's there.
Sahn Lee via Facebook
Noticed the brand of powdered gelatin you prefer comes from cows that are "primarily grass-fed". I've been using Great Lakes brand which is from Argentinian grass-fed cows. Is the BSE testing the reason you prefer Bernard Jensen brand?
Sara Gordon
Sarah Lee
Where did you see this? On the label?
I've been making small batches of bone broths every 2 – 3 days but did not realize that it has a protective and detoxing effect on the liver. Glad I'm doing something good for both my toddler and myself…..and this article reminds me that I need to drink more of it! =)
Barbara LaRosa via Facebook
very interesting, might try it in the winter until then I will continue sleeping and doing power sessions on my wonderful BIOMAT
Glycine via gelatin is a powerful detox! Some people might need to start slow at first and ensure the bile is thin and free flowing before starting a powerful detox program!
I like the Great Lakes Gelatin brand.
I have been drinking bone broth every day. I started taking 1/16 tsp of gelatin the other day, & now my stomach feels awful. I am very sensitive to a lot of foods. Should I just try 1/16 tsp maybe every 3rd day or so, & see how I feel?
Above all else, listen to your body. If it feels awful (no matter how healthy it is) it may not be best for your body's current state (and could do more harm than good). When digestion is weak (usually indicated by a slowed metabolism (waking body temp less than 97.8), digestive juices are in a sense "dialed down" and foods are not as easily digested. You may also be using a form a gelatin that is more difficult to digest (regular vs. collagen hydrolysate).

Logic just hits you right in the face when you read that one…it's like the biggest "Oh yeah! I know exactly what you are talking about!" Great piece.
I really want to add bone broth to my dog's food every day, to help with arthritis and an elevated liver enzyme (ALT) count. Is there any reason I shouldn't?
I give fish oil (salmon) to my dog for arthritis, he doesn't have any pain. I also give him broth, but not for any particular reason and he loves it. He is a 12+ year old golden retriever and still acts like a puppy. 😉
I have some bone broth in the crockpot as I type.
Will giving your dog home made bone broth help with his teeth? My poor dear dog had to be put to sleep to have his teeth cleaned a couple of times in his life. That was traumatic and expensive. Broth helps with needed minerals and the calcium phosporous ratio. If that is good for people, I assume that it is good for dogs, too. I assume that sometimes their dental problems come from the unnatural food that we humans choose for them. (O…and onions are not supposed to be good for dogs, so I wouldn't put onions in broth meant for a dog)
We give our dog raw meaty bones with the marrow still in them. Good for his teeth and belly, I also open a couple of acidophilus capsules and sprinkle that on his meaty bones as well as I add a little sea salt to his water once per day. When we give bone broth to him, I separate a small portion of it with lots of the fats and we don't add any veggies to his broths, only to the stuff we humans are going to consume. Sometimes I boil down the broth especially for the dog, so it's thicker and more gelatinous. He also loves slightly soured raw milk and cream. My brother is a vet and he said he wishes his kids were as healthy as that dog!
Prey Model (raw meat, organs, and soft bones) feeding keeps teeth clean – raw chicken with bones. The the very hard soup marrow bones can do damage to their teeth so it is not recommended. I normally scoop the marrow out of the bone then give it as a treat.
If you are feeding a canned or a kibble with grains this will cause bad teeth.
Although Prey Model does not allow kefir or broth, I still do it. Just makes sense to me.
Everyday we add either bone broth or kefir to our dogs food.
My son laughs at my never-ending broth pot; I just boil a set of bones till they are good and used up (take them out) then add more bones, water, and seasonings as needed. Sometimes I drink it straight or use it to make whole wheat couscous or mashed potatoes, or I cook rice or whole wheat pasta in it.

Great article which I've shared on my facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Learning-and-Yearning/229256057187940. Sarah, I have a question. I had a nutritionist appointment recently and we talked a bit about fats in the diet. My nutritionist highly recommends consuming fats, especially quality butter and olive oil. Because of the reasons that you have sited in this article – the fact that even the most remote places in the world are polluted – she does not recommend eating a lot of animal fat. Toxins, she says, are stored in fat. Since the time of Weston Price our world has become severely polluted. She does recommend eating meat. Dairy fat does not store toxics like meat fat, she says. I was wondering about your opinion on this. Thanks!
Sarah, TheHealthyHomeEconomist
You MUST eat animal fat to be healthy. All 14 of Dr. Price's traditional societies valued them as sacred foods necessary for health. Trying to avoid toxins by not eating them is a futile task that will lead to ill health. Get the cleanest sources you can and eat up! It's like saying let's not drink any water anymore because all the water is so polluted. There is no logic to the "don't eat animal fats because of toxins" argument. If the only animal fat I could get or afford was SPAM, you can bet I would be eating SPAM.

I'm healing from Celiac's disease and have been recommended making bone soups to help heal my intestinal walls by my naturopath. I also happen to have the herpes virus which I see after reading this blog, soups may cause an outbreak. I just started eating the broth two days ago (and 3 times a day because I'm following the intro to the Specific Carbohydrate Diet) , so I'll let you know if I get a herpes outbreak.
Question: Why is every body buying the powdered form of gelatin instead of making your own stock? I was nauseous after going gluten free due to the leaky gut developed by celiac's disease. I got off all supplements for two months and my nausea stopped almost immediately. I'll try making my own broth first. What is the advantage of eating a store bought powdered form??
Second question, it feels like a real energy sucker cooking the bones on the stove for so many hours. How many hours would you cook chicken bones in a crock pot?
So… she recommends butter and meat, so which animal fats is she warning against? Perhaps you misspoke somewhere in there because what you said contradicts itself.
Susan V
I apologize. As I said, she says that dairy fat does not store toxins like meat fat, so lots of butter is fine. I also love to eat the fat on meat, not just the meat itself, and that is what she recommends not doing.
That makes sense since the fat in the meat has been accumulated over the animals' life. I suppose this would mean tallow and other rendered fats would be higher in toxins. Personally I hate chewing on the gristle in meat, and prefer very lean cuts like sirloin and filet mignon.
Sarah, do you particularly think it's important to eat higher fat cuts of meat, or is eating lean cuts of beef, poultry, fish and cultured raw dairy products sufficient nutritionally in your mind?
I love bacon and sausage too, but have some reservations about eating pork, not only because piggies are so cute (feel the same way about ducks!), but also I don't think it sits well digestive wise compared to other meats, and it is impossible to find pork that is grass fed. I can get milk and whey fed pork, but they feed the pigs corn too… same issue with poultry… near impossible to find poultry that isn't fed any grains.
http://www.eatwild.com is a website that lists suppliers of grass-fed meat and dairy. it can be pricey, but if you get together a group of people, you can buy a whole animal together and cut costs considerably. It's called cow-pooling. I always make sure I get some fat from such animals and render it for use in cooking. Fat from grass-fed animals has CLA, vitamins and other important nutrients.
hi olivia,
sorry for going off on a tangent here, but i just wanted to reply to something you said in your comment (that not everyone is aware of, so forgive me if you already are)…
the reason that you can't find "grass-fed" pork is that pigs are omnivores… they can't survive on grass… they do need supplementation with other foods, and grains (such as corn) are not bad for them, as long as they are not the main portion of their diet… traditionally, pigs were fed (as you mentioned) excess milk and whey, as well as other excess farm produce (including veggies, nuts, eggs, meat, etc), and yes, some corn and other grains….
the same goes for chickens… they are omnivores… so no, their entire diet should not be made up of grains… but have you ever seen a chicken jumping up to reach the seeds on a tall stem of grass? they go crazy for them… and that's what grains are: the seeds of grasses and grass-like plants…
grains do not have the same digestive effects on pigs and chickens as the do on ruminants… and even for ruminants, grains are not an "unnatural" food in the normal amounts you would find in nature (our goats also go nuts for the grass seed-heads, for example… in the wild, that would be a natural part of their food…)
where we run into trouble is when they are fed *excessive amounts* of a food like that, where in their natural diet they would never be able to consume that much…
so, if you feel that you want to be eating pork and/or poultry, that milk and whey-fed pig that is supplemented with corn is probably quite delicious and healthy… same goes for the pastured chickens that are supplemented with grains…
okay, tangent over…
Selina- thank you, that link was most helpful.
Teri- yes I am aware of this. I don't have a problem with milk and whey fed pork and think it is good for pigs and chickens to have supplemental feed. (Though I'm sure they are resourceful and in the wild can live off of what they can find) My problem is that, yes, they're fed much more grain than they should be, and that the grains they eat are pesticide laden GM corn and soy. I would love to find a farmer that feeds a totally organic, nutritionally dense supplemental feed to their omnivores, like flax, chia, kelp, organic food scraps, etc, and mostly just lets them run free in the woods and pasture.
Personally, I get my eggs from a farmer who doesn't feed much grain. I haven't even asked what grains he feeds or whether it's organic because his eggs are obviously far superior to even the eggs I get from other local farmers who do feed organic grains. The yolks are deep orange and delicious. When I live in an area where I can have chickens and raise them the way I want… I definitely will.
Since pigs do not sweat they keep many toxins in their body (aside from what they can exhale, urinate, and eliminate). Also, White Oats Pasture is an awesome beef and poultry farm in Georgia. Their products are sold at Whole Foods (among other places) and can be ordered online.
About how much gelatin would you put in a smoothie?
Sarah, TheHealthyHomeEconomist
Anywhere from 1-3 tsp.
Sarah, the brand you recommend is the one from radiant life?
What about the great lakes gelatin you and your friend used in your pannacotta video?
Sarah, TheHealthyHomeEconomist
Great Lakes is fine but it does come from pork which some folks do not like. I do prefer the beef gelatin as I've used it for a long time and like it better … I used the Great Lakes in that video just because I was out of the beef gelatin at the time and Great Lakes was the best I could find at the store.
I have a can of Great Lakes Gelatin made from beef. It says:
Pure Protein
Beef Gelatin
Great Lakes
Unflavored Gelatin
Collagen Joint Care
Gelatin Dietary Supplement.
On the back it says:
Gelatin is the purified protein derived by the selective hydrolysis of collagen from the skin, the connective tissue and or bones of animals. Great Lakes Gelatin provies you with the highest types of pure unflavored edible gelatins. It is available in type A (porcine), or type B (Bovine or Bone). This consumer package represents a special grade of gelatin that meets the standards set forth by the U.S. Pharmacopeia, regulated by National Formulary. All grades of gelatin are prepared under the most rigid sanitary conditions.
I bought it at Vitamin Cottage.
Kate @ Modern Alternative Mama
Great Lakes has both beef and pork gelatin available. Just look for the "kosher" version to get the beef one.
Late in the game here…..But Great Lakes does have a beef gelatin option. It is what we use. But we order on line. I usually find the porcine one in stores. http://amzn.to/126lhwa

what about 'leaf' gelatine instead of powder?
This is very helpful. I am supposed to go for a colonoscopy next month, and I understand that clear broth is one of the few things I can consume the day before when prepping for the procedure, So, I will definitely be making some high quality broth! Would you believe they also said I could have soda, and that I should have Gatorade or Powerade (to mix with the laxative). Well, I don't do corn syrup or artificial sweeteners, so I'm going to make homemade electroylyte drink (made with cane sugar, salt and other ingredients) that I've made for my hubby for years. If you also have a recipe for Gatorade / Powerade / Pedialyte substitute please share.
Sarah, TheHealthyHomeEconomist
Yes, I do have a recipe as a matter of fact! Must post that.
Mydarlings Forreal via Facebook
That's why I love my croc pot stews & pressure cookers!
Jami @ Eat Nourishing
Yes! Bone broth heals and detoxifies. Truly one of the most important foods to consume. Simple and inexpensive to make. We put it in sauces, soups (obviously) and cook our veggies, legumes and some grains in it. With our highly toxic environment, bone broth and gelatin are a small investment to make for great health.
Very interesting. Truly its difficult for anyone to completely escape the toxins present in just about everything.
My favorite way for consuming homemade broth is by cooking white rice in it. Combine it with some grass fed butter and sea salt, yum!
Nicole, The Non-Toxic Nurse
Reading this makes me glad I started today with a giant bowl of soup made from bone broth! I always do that the day after I work my long (13+ hours), hard, emotionally draining, shifts in the NICU. I had some when I got home from work last night too. I try to eat a bowl per day in general. I just plain "feel better," physically and emotionally, when I eat at least one bowl per day. Bone broth is also the best electrolyte replacer I have found for after a day of hard, sweaty work, and it also settles my stomach when it is upset. Thanks for the article on broth and glycine, Sarah. Thanks also for the wonderful videos that helped me when I was learning to make bone broth!

Gee thanks, Tommy Thompson, you racist dim wit.
Oh, and by the way, working at the Stranger pays bank.
why do we have republicans speaking at the RAC anyway?
Yes, and I think their horns are really quite handsome once you get used to them, don't you?
Jesus.. It's like these idiots just woke up from a 200 year nap and decided to run for president. "President, huh? Sounds interesting! What's involved?"
My cat has more political sense.
"What's involved?" Hilarious.
I let the bank balance my checkbook. I am not a credit to my "religion", apparently.
Well, he knows that our overlords among the Elders of Zion will help him win if he compliments us enough.
I can hardly wait for Tommy Thompson to thank the Jews for killing Christ. You know, because if they were not Christ killers, he never would have been our saviour.
And I am sure Thompson will bring up how sexy the huge Jewish nose is too.
You know what, the more I hear the GOP candidates I just want to laugh and then cry. Remember how we all laughed at George Bush in 2000? Oh yeah, that was really funny stuff. I mean "How could he manage to be the president?"
Yeah, but if you really want to find an anti-Semitic (former) presidential candidate, you need to find a leader in the black community like, oh, say Jessie Jackson who has said that Nixon was less attentive to poverty in the U.S. because "four out of five [of Nixon's top advisors] are German Jews and their priorities are on Europe and Asia"; that he was "sick and tired of hearing about the Holocaust"; that there are "very few Jewish reporters that have the capacity to be objective about Arab affairs"; and of course referred to Jews as "Hymies" and to New York City as "Hymietown" in January 1984 during a conversation with Washington Post reporter, Milton Coleman. Whitey just dont do Jew hate like that any more.
Yeah, Jessie Jackson can be a lame-o sometimes. At least he actually apologized for his 1984 comment (which was later beautifully parodied by Eddie Murphy in SNL) instead of digging himself further into the ground like this Tommy Thompson guy.
Jesse Jackson is a prong, and everyone with any sense knows it. He's also not a candidate for President, and never was a serious one. Ditto Al Sharpton. The comparison to Thompson is meaningless, typical right-wing "yabbut, yabbut" nonsense.
I can't wait to hear Thompson speak out on those other demons of the Klan, the Catholics.
Hitler was a Jew.
Jesus loves you, but not as much as I do.

3 Reasons New Yorkers Live Longer
Published: 4/4/2013
Learn More:
Should I Drink Bulletproof Coffee?
In 2007, the New York City Department of Health released some surprising news: a New Yorker born in 2004 can expect to live 78.6 years, nine months longer than the average American. Add to this that the life expectancy of New Yorkers is lengthening faster than that of other Americans, and it's worth taking a look at some reasons why:
The good news is you don't have to move to New York to avail yourself of these advantages. Anyone, anywhere, can decide to stop smoking, walk more and seek out healthy foods (the number of farmers' markets has doubled in the last decade, making fresh produce more available everywhere).
Find out which vitamins are right for you.
Everyone's dietary needs are different based on a number of factors including lifestyle, diet, medications and more. To find out what vitamins you need, take the Weil Vitamin Advisor.

Comic-Con Trailers: The Best of the Best, Ranked
Film, TV
Whether or not you realize it, you've likely enjoyed the work of comics historian John Wells for several years, given his long-term relationship with DC Comics. More recently, his wealth of comics knowledge has come to the forefront through his involvement in TwoMorrows Publishing's American Comic Book Chronicles. The series tackles comic book history dating back to the 1940s, typically dedicating a decade to each full-color hardback installment. When it came to the 1960s, Wells and series editor Keith Dallas opted to split the decade into two volumes, given the amount of history that occurred in that era.
The first 1960s volume, which covers from 1960-1964, was released early last year. Wells' second 1960s installment, American Comic Book Chronicles: 1965-69, was released in late May. After discussing Wells latest foray in the latter part of the 1960s, the interview shifts to Dallas. In my conversation with Dallas, we focused on American Comic Book Chronicles: 1970s, which he edited with Jason Sacks; it's scheduled for release in late August.
To get a taste of the books, be sure to check out ACBC's Facebook page, where snippets of the series are previewed — and discussions of comic book history are a regular educational occurrence. Kudos to TwoMorrows and the ACBC Crew, whose 1950s volume of American Comic Book Chronicles (written by Bill Schelly) was recently nominated for a Harvey Award.
Given that Monkeybrain Comics just celebrated its second anniversary, on the heels of Co-Publisher Allison Baker joining IDW, it struck me as the ideal time to quiz Co-Publisher Chris Roberson.
In addition to discussing the new status quo for Monkeybrain (which surprisingly stays much the same as before, as Roberson explains), we also delve into Edison Rex – Issue 16 arrives Wednesday — and dig into the writer's first work for Dark Horse, Aliens: Fire and Stone, which debuts Sept. 24.
Lest you mistake Eleanor Davis' new collection How to be Happy for a self-help book, she spells out everything in the opening pages. It won't help a depressed person become less depressed, but Davis does recommend two books that benefited her — a situation we briefly discussed.
I've long had an affinity for the Athens, Georgia-based storyteller, whom I first interviewed in 2011. That affection is partly because we live in the same state, but also because her work often strikes me as the comics equivalent of an interpretive dance. I have no other way to describe the core response that her work elicits from me. I look repeatedly at some of the pages in this collection and still find something new each time.
As a kid, The Phantom was one of my favorite comic strips. So last year, I was enthused when I learned that writer Jeff Parker was collaborating with artist Marc Laming on a miniseries called Kings Watch, starring Flash Gordon, The Phantom and Mandrake the Magician.
Ahead of the July release of the trade paperback collection, I spoke with Laming about the miniseries, and to briefly discuss how the project has opened the door for future work for him. My thanks to Laming for his time and to series editor Nate Cosby for facilitating the interview.
Seemingly every week a new Kickstarter project worthy of support attracts my attention. Last week, writer Travis Horseman made me aware of his campaign for Amiculus: A Secret History. Horseman, who characterizes himself as a incurable graphic novel junkie, clearly relished the opportunity to discuss his original, epic three-part graphic novel series telling a lost history of the fall of Rome.
At the beginning of the interview, I was curious to learn what Horseman meant by quasi-historical, and the discussion took off from there.
When two siblings work together on a comic, it creates a rare interview opportunity. The dynamics of a typical collaboration, with unrelated creators, when successful, means there's a strong rapport between storytellers. But the link between two brothers, as in the case with Shobo and Shof Coker, means a level of candor and communication that I really wanted to discuss with the creators of Outcasts of Jupiter. Their formative years as children in Lagos, Nigeria, and its impact on their storytelling approach, was another area of interest for me.
Thursday marks 10 years since the first 24 Hour Comics Day. In recognition of this milestone, Nat Gertler, who organized that first day and orchestrated the event annually through 2007, was more than happy to share his recollections of its formation. One detail that surprised was that the 2005 collection features the first sold story by award-winning artist Fiona Staples.
In addition, Gertler briefly chats about his work on Kaboom's Peanuts series, as well as his publisher search for Tess Fowler's Jenny's City.
It doesn't matter how many years I've read comics, on the eve for the launch of a new series that piques my interest, I always get pumped with excitement. Such is the case this week, given that writer Cullen Bunn and artist Dale Eaglesham's Sinestro #1 hits shelves on Wednesday.
The series marks a departure in style for Eaglesham as he pursues a darker, horror tone, an approach he discusses in this interview. He also discusses discusses the opportunity to digitally ink his art, being colored by Jason Wright, collaborating with Bunn, and looking forward for the chance to indulge in Kirby dots (aka Kirby Krackle).
Archie Comics is in an unusual position among North American comics companies, as not only is a majority of its titles geared toward younger readers, but a majority of that audience is female.
Curious to learn how Archie maintains that readership, I reached out to President Mike Pellerito to discuss how he envisions the market for the company's core kids line, and how he seeks to expand what it offers. Of course, the recent hiring of Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa as chief creative officer and his potential impact on the line became central to the discussion.
In the comments section, please be sure to answer Pellerito's question to Robot 6 readers.
Few creators would consider drawing inspiration from My Fair Lady to retell the Frankenstein tale, only as one man's quest to construct the perfect woman. Fortunately, there are few creators quite like veteran writer Jamie S. Rich and newcomer artist Megan Levens, the team behind the new comic series Madame Frankenstein.
Ahead of the series' May 7 debut, I talked with Levens about, among many things, her nuanced examination of psychological horror. Madame Frankenstein #1 can be preordered using Diamond Code MAR140478.
If you're not already aware of Garry Brown's art from Brian Wood's The Massive, you'll be introduced to his distinctively eye-catching work on Wednesday with the release of Marvel's Iron Patriot #1 .
The five-issue miniseries finds Brown teaming with writer Ales Kot to craft the new adventures of former Secret Avenger Jim Rhodes (while it is currently a miniseries, as noted in this late January tweet by Kot: " … there is room for more if the series does well. We might just extend if so"). Given that Brown is a 2010 graduate of The Kubert School, I took the opportunity in this brief interview to also discuss that experience and its impact on him.
Typically a newcomer artist to comics doesn't have a background of 25 years of experience in architecture, but United Kingdom-based Alison Sampson is not your typical creator. One realizes that after seeing her one-of-a-kind work on Genesis, her upcoming Image Comics graphic novella with writer Nathan Edmondson about a man who gains unlimited power, only for it to become his worst nightmare.
Naturally, I was curious to learn how an architect decided to explore working in comics; we discuss that among other topics in this interview.
Comics are a visual medium, and some images grab your attention at the outset. In the case of writer/artist Matthew Petz's War of the Woods, I liked the story from the moment I saw a live turtle being used as the otter Phin's helmet.
The digital series, which reveals an alien invasion of Earth from the perspective of an animal kingdom, has completed two seasons (both Season 1 and Season 2 are available on comiXology) with more on the horizon. Petz recently took some time to discuss how the series came into being and some of his plans for Season 3.
It's a cause for celebration any time Greg Rucka launches a new series, as he does Wednesday with Veil, the story of a girl who awakens with amnesia in an abandoned subway station. Teaming with Rucka on this new Dark Horse ongoing is artist Toni Fejzula. I challenge you not to read Veil once you see the eyes of the lead character as drawn by Fejzula — that and so much more about his art instantly caught my attention to the series. With this interview, I aimed to gain insight into Fejzula's passion and approach for this new collaborative project. It's an added bonus to learn he might be listening to Rock Lobster while drawing Veil …
The always-busy writing team of Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray are back with a Kickstarter campaign for Denver, a 72-page original graphic novel for mature readers illustrated by Pier Brito. As with most things involving Palmiotti, there is an interesting angle to this particular project (his sixth Kickstarter) in that the creators have added a soundtrack to the story, written and composed by Hans Karl. Denver comes equipped with a direct story pitch: "… one man going against all odds to get back the woman he loves, all set in the not-too-distant future." With 15 days left on the campaign, Palmiotti was happy to discuss this latest Kickstarter.

Let us pause and give thanks for the Internet, which, in its infinite memeness, has given us this gem: a video remix of the recent police vs. occupier showdowns, but with the cops wielding deadly lightsabers instead of batons.

Last week's challenge: The challenge came from Steve Baggish of Arlington, Mass., the father of the 11-year-old boy who created a previous challenge. Name a boy's name and a girl's name, each in four letters. The names start with the same letter of the alphabet. The boy's name contains the letter R. Drop that R from the boy's name and insert it into the girl's name. Phonetically, the result will be a familiar two-word phrase for something no one wants to have. What is it?
Answer: Brad, Beth/bad breath
Winner: Matthew Leal of San Francisco, Calif.
Next week's challenge: Name a famous actress of the past whose last name has 5 letters. Move the middle letter to the end to name another famous actress of the past. Who are these actresses?
If you know the answer to next week's challenge, submit it here. Listeners who submit correct answers win a chance to play the on-air puzzle. Important: Include a phone number where we can reach you Thursday at 3 p.m. Eastern.

"Museum Brugge.. Arentshuis.." Arents House Museum - Arentshuis Tip by Greggor58
Arents House Museum - Arentshuis, Brugge: 5 reviews and 12 photos
This nice little gallery is housed in what once was a mansion built in the 1700's....and houses a permanent exhibition of the British-Brugge artist Frank Brangwyn...He was the son of a British man living in Brugge at the time and in fact was born here in 1867....hence the dual connection...
In addition to the permanent collection on display here there is often changing exhibits displayed here sponsored by the Groeninge Museum.These exhibits are located on the ground floor...
In 1936 Brangwyn presented the City of Brugge with over 400 works, now permanently displayed here at Arentshuis or the "Arents" House Museum. In return for this donation the city of Brugge awarded Brangwyn a Grand Officer of the Order of Leopold II, and made him Citoyen d'Honneur de Brugge [only the third time the award had been given].
Brangwyn was an artistic jack-of-all-trades...as well as paintings and drawings, he produced designs for stained glass, furniture, ceramics, table glassware, buildings and interiors, was a lithographer and woodcutter and also an illustrator of books...
In fact Brangwyn also produced over 80 poster designs during the First World War, he was not though an official war artist.His poster of a Tommy bayoneting an enemy soldier (?Put Strength in the Final Blow: Buy War Bonds?) caused deep offense in both Britain and Germany.The Kaiser it is rumoured...put a bounty on his life...
Most of his collection is available to see on the second floor of the gallery...in spite of the gloomy and rainy day it was the lighting in the gallery was quite good...
I had the place virtually to myself ...I was there fairly early in the morning...so I was quite able to enjoy what was there to see...
Because I had purchased the Three day Museum Card...I wasn't looking into my pockets every time I ventured into a Museum connected with the "program"...for more information about this look under "General" tips...OTHERWISE admission is 2 Euros....
This gallery or museum is CLOSED on MONDAYS but otherwise can be accessed from Tuesday until Sundays inclusive from the hours of 0930 AM until 1630 PM...
I snuk a couple of snaps inside of the gallery...they certainly are NOT "gallery quality"...

I am working setting up my continuous integration server using Teamcity and I have three steps for my build (.NET/VS2010/MSBUILD)
- Use MSBUILD to build my solution.
- Run NUnit Tests.
- Use MSBUILD to do a Web deploy of my projects.
The issue I am trying to solve is to prevent step 3 from running if any of the test fail. Is this possible?

Yes, folks, people change their positions on issues as the situation changes.
I love flip-flop accusations, like you're never allowed to change your mind on anything ever.
Uh, Annie….here's the problem: you note that he opposed the war before, and now thinks precipitous withdrawal isn't a good idea….and then you say "Funny, he's just about the only politician I can think of who mirrors my opinions both then and now."
Are you joking? That's the position of a sizable minority of the elected members of the Democratic Party!
Charisma? Check. Electable? Check. Decent on most issues? Check.
Substantively better than your average DC Democrat? Sure, but barely.
The hype far exceeds the quality of the goods.
Naive to the point of preposterousness.
Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.
If Brendan Kiley owns Harper's Magazine, why does he work at the Stranger? And why does he scribble in the margins? Hasn't his design staff heard of sidebars?
Elenchos: I think that the copy of Harper Magazine that Annie Wagner was reading was owned by Brendan Kiley, NOT the magazine as a whole.
Let's not all nominate the guy yet--the Republicans all united behind GwB in 2000 because they thought he was a golden boy, and look where that got them.
Obvious: Why would Annie Wagner lie about a think like that? It makes little sense that a magazine mogul would need a job at an alt weekly, but it makes even less sense for the Stanger to claim he owns a magazine when he really doesn't. It isn't like funny or anything, and what would Wagner have to gain by promoting such a tale?
I guess printing magazines with margin notes from the owner is kind of hip. Maybe Brendan wants to liven up the venerable Harper's image. Maybe he got ideas like that from his stint at The Stranger.
Let's not all nominate the guy yet--the Republicans all united behind GwB in 2000 because they thought he was a golden boy, and look where that got them.
Control of Congress and a green-light for all their policies for the next 6 years?
If Obama, a centrist, looked like Clarence Thomas, we wouldnt be reading this post. Im just saying.
Wellstone was wayyyyyyyyy more progressive, but I dont recall this celebrity style worship.
I don't think Obama necessarily changed his position on Iraq. He didn't want to rush headlong into a dumb war, but now that we're in the midst of it, what is the best way of ending it? To him, the answer is not just rushing headlong out of the war, but rather trying to establish a functional government, no timetable, yada yada. You can agree or disagree with his current position, but I don't think it's any kind of a flip-flop or change of position from his first opinion.
Elenchos: I can't tell if you are messing with me or not, so just in case you are having a serious misunderstanding with the language here, I will clarify.
"Brendan Kiley, the owner of the magazine, who was prompted to scribble notes about Darfur in the margin"
When Wagner says "the owner of the magazine" she is saying he purchased and owns that one copy of the magazine, not to be confused with him owning the entire company that publishes the magazine. I do not believe Wagner is lying, I think you are misinterpreting what "owner" is making reference to.
Also, if you pick up a copy of Harpers's, please don't call Wagner a liar when you notice there are no notes in the margins by Brendan Kiley. There are only so many copies of the magazine he can personally scribble in.
I saw Obama this evening. He did a good job. There were something like 2,000 people there. He didn't pander to the obviously enthusiastic crowd with any barn-burning, fist-waving, or anything like that. He was calm and easy-going. He spoke for about 30-40 minutes and then took a couple questions (there was no fancy set-up, just Obama calling on people) and then he signed books for an hour. People LOVED him.
I didn't go last night (had class) but if Obama runs in 08, he has my vote. If he can avoid getting capped, that is.

In his column in The Regional Economist, St. Louis Fed President James Bullard discusses several proposals aimed at addressing the issue of financial institutions that are "too big to fail." He also shares some of his perspectives on the topic.
In St. Louis, President James Bullard discussed how the St. Louis Fed's new approach to near-term U.S. macroeconomic and monetary policy projections differs from the old approach.
Presentation (pdf) | Press Release
Central banks around the world are struggling with inflation rates that are below their targets. According to conventional central banking wisdom, interest rate cuts should increase inflation, but that's not working. Maybe—by Irving Fisher's logic—increasing nominal interest rates increases inflation.
For a long time after the recession, consumers shed debt. But it's growing again – up 2.1 percent from the first quarter last year.
Our main essay focuses on the Federal Reserve's return to normal monetary policy after seven years of abnormally low interest rates, which were brought on by the financial crisis and Great Recession.more

Recurring Role
In the part where the Dung Beetles were shopping at the Camp Store, one of them said "Pizza Pizza, Pizza Pie!" However, when you see them walking away, they had a rake and shorts. They did not get any pizza unless they meant to give Lazlo pizza as a payment.
A running gag is that Lazlo tries to sell stuff for beads, but instead gets something else
Goof: In the episode "Miss Fru Fru", in the part when Ms. Doe teaches the girls about public speaking, the shot that shows their back, Patsy and Nina's tails are missing.
In this episode, we learn that Jane doe was the Ms. Fru Fru pageant winner before being a scoutmistess
The Wheel of Duties is a spoof of Wheel of Fortune.
The episode "Miss Fru Fru" is the first epiosde only appearing the Squirrel Scouts.
Ms. Doe: (on intercom) Attention, squirrels. Attention, squirrels. I thought you'd like to know something very important. This camp is not Fru Fru. It's doo-doo!
Lazlo: Admit it, Raj. You broke the rule and traded nasal spray for ice cream.
Raj: (has ice cream smeared on his face) No, I didn't.
Lazlo: You have ice cream all over your face, and I thought elephants were lactose intolerant.
Raj: I am quickly becoming Lazlo intolerant!
Lazlo: Face it, Raj. You're just like me.
Raj: PIGGLY-WIGGLY! YOU DID NOT JUST SAY THAT!
(after crashing through a roof with a jetboat)
Ms. Doe: (ticked off) You want fru fru your way? Well, I'll give you fru fru your way. (screams) I'M FINISHED WITH ACORN FLATS FRU-FRU!
Lazlo: No bees, no beeswax!
Raj:Did I hear a kaatching?
Raj walks into the door.
Raj:Oooh!Business is really picking up.
The poem that Gretchen reads "Tree" is by Heimlich Mcmusely. Heimlich Mcmusely is Chief Mcmusely
In this episode, Jill Talley did the role of Susie, in which it is a character originally voiced by Tara Strong.
Marks the first time Joe Murray get a line in his show as the baggage handler.
Look Closely: Miss Mucus' magazine that she is reading is "Malls of Atlanta", and Atlanta is where Cartoon Network headquarters is located.
Listed duties on the Wheel of Duties are leaf raking, camp therapist, camp store, security duty, garbage duty, latrine duty, kitchen duty, clean the forest, camp mascot, do nothing, scoutmaster for a day, and shave the Scoutmaster's back. Dredging Leaky Lake is one of the duties that isn't listed on the Wheel of Duties.
Goof: After Raj throws out the items of the store, in the scene when the scouts take them from the floor, the items can be seen in the shelves of the store.
In the credits,Sampson is waiting for Raj to open up the store to get some nasal spray and then leaves.
This marks the first time Jane Doe got all ticked off.
Miss Fru Fru is the very first segment all about Jane Doe and the Squirrel Scouts. Lazlo, Raj, Clam, and rest of the Bean Scouts are absent.
A difference about Pasty in this episode from the other episodes in whcih she is included is that her feet are smaller.
This episode shows how Jane Doe gets into much trouble being with the scouts like Scoutmaster Lumpus.
We learn that there is a Wheel of Duties at camp. Here where each scout got as their duty:
Clam got to be camp threapist.
Raj got to run the camp store.
Edward got to shave Lumpus' back.
Lazlo got to dredge Leaky Lake
Raj: PIGGLY WIGGLY, YOU DID NOT JUST SAY THAT?! / Piggly Wiggly is a supermarket chain that operates in the Midwestern and Southern parts of the United States.
Clam in the role of camp therapist is similar to the therapist role played by Lucy van Pelt in the comic strip Peanuts.
