Today Google celebrates the 71st Anniversary of The Wizard of Oz. This 1939 film is an American musical fantasy film directed in part by Victor Fleming from a script partially written by Noel Langley, Florence Ryerson and Edgar Allan Woolf. It was based on the 1900 novel of The Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum who died twenty years before the film was released.

The Wizard of Oz features Judy Garland, Ray Bolger, Jack Haley, Bert Lahr and Frank Morgan, with Billie Burke, Margaret Hamilton, Charles Grapewin, Clara Blandick and the Singer Midgets as the Munchkins.

Today we celebrate the 71st Anniversary of this incredible movie, The Wizard of Oz, which has changed and influenced the lives of many ,and will continue to do so for years to come.

I received an email from my dad this morning. There is a lot of good information in the links at the end!

Several people have asked me for a list of Internet sites that talk about Fructose and the problems associated with it’s consumption. Here are a few good ones.  I have lost at least 11 lbs of swelling from my abdomen by eating “zero” sucrose (table sugar)  and High Fructose Corn syrup or foods containing them AND ADDING  lots of Glucose to foods that have nutritional value that I would like to eat, with no bad side effects as of yet: Actually it seems to help. Adding enough Glucose to any food seems to make it workable for me. For instance I can drink a soda with added Glucose and it will not bloat me….I am not saying to do this as it was just an experiment to see if the Glucose would facilitate the absorption of Fructose and the proof was positive. So, if our intestines are having trouble absorbing digested sugars from our foods we eat, then supplying additional sufficient Glucose along with the meal may help with 1) better absorption of nutrition, 2) reduce bacterial over growth ( which can affect TNF levels).  Of course if we could get all of the swelling down in the intestine perhaps the problem would not exist in the first place.

Take a look… even Broccoli is higher in Fructose than Glucose … hence gassy for many people ;but, we need the nutrition! So, I sprinkle a generous amount of Glucose on my Broccoli to gain the nutrition absorption. You will see on the Nutritional Values site that you will need to go through several pages before you come to a food that has the ratio of Fructose to Glucose in the order that is healthy… like sweet potatoes #287, page 6. Stay away from Burger King: Most of their burgers contain “zero” glucose and are loaded with HFC!. MacDonalds  has a healthier ratio but still have more Fructose than Glucose.  Plain old baked potatoes and raw corn on the cob have the right ratio;even better, sauerkraut  and the best Avocado. Think of all the food you like to eat and look them up. Elimanate the high fructose ones if possible or add glucose to these to correct the balance for better absorption.

Of course meat doesn’t have any sugars and is probably why the Atkins diet works for a limited time…. until the body is starved of nutrition.

Any way here are some sites:

General info on Fructose Malabsorption.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fructose_malabsorption

Very thorough study that is still understandable on Fructose Malabsorption. Explains clearly that Fructose usually causes a secondary bacterial growth in the intestines and the following havoc upon the body. If pdf can’t load, re google the page link.

I received a question from my brother today. He was looking to make a page on a website have no address bar, as well he wanted to resize the window and a few other things. I just feel like sharing the answer. This code doesn’t seam to remove the address bar in firefox though. I have not tested this in other browsers or anything so I’m not entirely sure about how IE will interpret this:

<a href="#" onclick="window.open('http://www.google.com/',null,
'height=200,width=400,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,
resizable=yes')">Open Google</a>

As you can see, the onclick attribute function takes over and opens a new windows with the window.open function. The href=”#” may actually effect the URL of the page you are on by adding a “#” to the end of it. That’s really all there is too it.
