  1. Celebrity chef and Food Network star Paula Deen is teaming with drug maker Novo Nordisk to launch a program that aims to help people live with Type 2 diabetes and promote a Novo diabetes drug. The program is called Diabetes in a New Light and offers tips on food preparation, stress management and working with doctors on a treatment plan. Recipes and tips can be found at http://www.Diabetesinanewlight.com. Deen, a paid spokeswoman for Novo Nordisk, says she was diagnosed three years ago, but kept quiet about her condition until she had advice to offer the public. "I wanted to bring
  2. This is from a thread I started on p.com yesterday:
  3. Here's an old commercial with Euell Gibbons: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_XJMIu18I8Y
  4. Here's a description from amazon.com of his latest book, Breaking Addiction: A 7-Step Handbook for Ending Any Addiction: Book Description Publication Date: March 1, 2011 Finally—a road map to recovery from the nation's most original thinker on addiction In his revolutionary book The Heart of Addiction, Dr. Lance Dodes examined the underlying emotions that drive addictive behaviors—whether drinking, gambling, sex, or eating. Now, in Breaking Addiction, Dodes presents a comprehensive guide outlining seven critical steps to overcome addiction, based on his findings. Through
  5. Here's a link to the book, The Heart Of Addiction, at google books. It looks like you can read quite a bit of it there: http://books.google.com/books?id=Do_jqXDd61YC&printsec=frontcover&dq=heart+of+addiction&hl=en&sa=X&ei=5G4UT6a9KYro2QWxm7GDCg&ved=0CDYQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=heart%20of%20addiction&f=false
  6. More resources can be found on Dr. Lance Dodes' website: Welcome! This website is designed to introduce the new understanding and treatment of addiction I've developed over the past 20-plus years, starting in academic journals then in two books, "Breaking Addiction: A 7-Step Handbook for Ending Any Addiction" which is just out this year from HarperCollins, and my earlier book, "The Heart of Addiction", also from HarperCollins. Breaking Addiction describes a step-by-step approach to treating addiction based on the ideas in my first book. Many people have written to let me know of their s
  7. So many families are effected by addictions of some kind: http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/the-heart-addiction His first book was The Heart of Addiction: Editorial Reviews: Synopsis: Lance Dodes, M.D., a psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, is Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School, where he is a member of the Division on Addictions. He is also the Director of the Boston Center for Problem Gambling. He has served as the director of the alcoholism and substance abuse treatment unit of Harvard's McLean Hospital, and as the director of the alcoholism un
  8. Where is there a Publix in Hiram? If you use the store locator on the Publix website and put in Hiram none show up with a Hiram address. There are 3 located in Dallas and 2 in Powder Springs. Where locally are the organic food store and the organic produce store located?
  9. I don't understand why Hiram doesn't have a Publix. I'd like to see one close to where the Food Lion is on Hwy 92.
  10. It's interesting that she found support online in a political chat room. Here's a description of her book, 703: How I Lost More Than a Quarter Ton and Gained a Life: Book Description Publication Date: April 15, 2010 A moving, funny, tongue-in-cheek, and deadly serious story about how one woman lost and found herself by going online. Nancy Makin weighed an astounding 703 pounds in May 2000. She was forty-five years old and suffered from diabetes and other obesity-related maladies. Thanks in equal parts to shame and logistics, she'd been homebound for a dozen years. But
  11. That was a creative idea. How old is your son? Did he say anything about your laptop being on his note?
  12. I wonder if Tyler is the one that shot Daniel on the beach? A couple of episodes ago they were taking him away, but maybe he later escapes? Of course, the shooter could be someone who is unknown at this point. Emily may get some of Daniel sister's DNA and have it tested using hers as a match. Someone else could learn of the results. There are a lot of possibilities.
  13. Please explain that a little: making a "profit based on ownership of the property." What prevents other grocery stores from doing the same?
  14. What Clark Howard says: http://www.clarkhoward.com/videos/clarkhoward/cars/get-the-best-used-car-for-your-money/vFW6m/
  15. The only one I have ever been in was located in a small town. It was in a well kept quiet neighborhood. I never saw anything dirty. It reminded me of an Aldi's. I guess other locations are different. Several years ago when I lived in Douglas County I went to a couple of grocery stores there that have since closed. Once was enough. To put it politely they were dated, rather rough, and overall unattractive. I decided to shop elsewhere.
  16. Did any of you take this route? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-s_jz96H6Us&feature=related
  17. I had a HP Photosmart all-in-one c4180 that worked well that recently stopped working after several years. I'd like to find a new printer that uses cartridges that are available re-manufactured. A new c4180 would be an option if I could find one. Does anyone have any ideas? Also, I looked at some ads. What do the ppm numbers mean? One number is listed for black and another number for color printing.
  18. I hope they did something about those stores. Here's a photo of the produce dept. at one of the Save A Lot stores in Ohio:
  19. I googled images for Save A Lot. All the stores that came up looked bigger than the one I have been in. Here's one photo where you can see that the lighting, floors, and furnishings are plainer than Kroger or Publix:
  20. The Wall Street Journal's website says that the company decided to close 113 "weaker" locations. This is posted at www.southernsavers.com/: Unfortunately, I’ve got some sad news for Food Lion and Bloom fans. The company that owns both of them, Delhaize America, has decided to close 113 Food Lion stores as well as retire the Bloom banner. Many Bloom stores and Bottom Dollar Food’s will be converted into Food Lion stores. You will see this happen within the next 30 days according to their news release.
  21. I've never been to Acworth. Is the one there in an older building? They have almost 1,200 stores. Some must be nicer than others.
  22. Where are these stores located that are so bad? How do they stay in business? The one that was close to where my Mom lived reminded me of Aldi's. They were a smaller sized grocery store with mostly basic items.
  23. Well, I'm surprised and disappointed to hear that. The only one I've ever been in was in another state---not GA. Where were the stores located that you've been to? They have a lot of stores. From their website: 1,200 discount grocery stores nationwide and growing Save-A-Lot is one of the nation's leading extreme value, carefully selected assortment grocery chains, operating nearly 1,200 value-oriented stores in all types of neighborhoods — urban, rural and suburban. We deliver our customers terrific savings, up to 40% compared to conventional grocery stores. Our Save-A-Lot g
  24. I think Save A Lot stores would do well in the locations where Food Lions are located now. My Mom used to live close to one, and it got a lot of business. It was smaller than Kroger or Publix and stocked basic items at discounted prices. The lighting and design was plain. I've never been in any except that one. Has anyone shopped there? I looked online and the closest location to Hiram is Bremen. I looked at their sales for this week and noticed that they have 2 lbs of carrots for $1.00 and 3 lb. bags of onions for only $1.00. I plan to email them and suggest that they consider locating a stor
