It may not at all be both of the added fats but more likely
as well as an omega-6 fat also found in mother's milk, arachidonic acid, otherwise known as ARA).
I'd put money on the omega-6...it's a dicey supplement across the board
and we get tonnes of omega-6 stuff in the diet.
And almost no omega-3s....unless the tot's GI system is simply incompletely tolerant.
In which case kids will have been shown to get sick on fatty fish..doubt.
Needs study and reflection, I'd bet, before we get nutz.

11-Mar-2008 - The typical North American diet consisting of large amounts of meat and little fish is deficient in omega-3 fatty acids, posing possible risks to infant neurological development, says new research.
It's a good piece.
Musta been about 12.
Eventually owned paperbacks of every Nebula and Hugo novel and novella
from day one...even the very first Hugo (2 copies) which got so hard to find and...
is one for which I no longer remember even the name
It was BEM schlock....but it was the first.
Gave them all away with some modest regrets but knew even then that
they had absolutely shaped my cognitive processes, my imaginations...
I think altogether for the better.
Miss them some but no longer do any sci-fi.
Sigh.
This guy dropped or shot harmful things onto a pretty defenseless population.
Onto a lot of very small figures far below... UNOPPOSED, too...
Who never had no air force no how [had a few antiaircraft stations].
He never set a foot on the ground. Never ever did the Grunt thing.
He was almost exactly the same sort of warfighter
that's currently doin' hellfires outta preadators.
From Nevada.
THEN he got shot down.
His experience was apparently in surviving several miserable years in a prison camp ...and doing so with honour, I believe.
But that's no kinda foreign policy 'sperience.. NO~how.
So..Let's get to putting a stopper in that particular neo-iconic bottle.

-Given this intensive preparation phase-
About when it gets important or just really appropriate to get laid?
[or maybe they've not bothered, or if they have
how many "dollars" it takes to buy some of that action.]
Just wondering, naturally.
And if the cost of chivalry is a 25 percent STD rate for girls and more unwanted pregnancy, ...
When I worked Baragwanath Hospital outside Soweto in days-long-gone-by the rate for gonorrhea among parturient women was 25%.
Today in that same [I think] demographic I was surprised by something I ran across giving the rate for HIV as...you guessed it. Twenty-five (25%) percent.
[These women -across Africa- are contracting HIV almost entirely -as I understand it- from their men.]
It's an epidemiological thing obviously....in any population. Hmm?
Please Lee...
Please don't make us have to endure another Warren Commission...thing?
Lots of folks would say...coverup.
A forty-plus year hiatus, they said .....to keep us from being upset(?).
You've just come out for Barack -- my sense is that he would not hesitate
a single moment to get this Mukasey thing scrubbed and honestly so.
In this time...and particularly in this very time
America can simply not endure another body blow to an institution
we once loved...rightly or wrongly..
A standard bearer for upright behavior and moral compass - the right stuff.
I reference of course Our Own American Government.
You still have a reputation for moral probity...we'd hate that gone.
So much of our essential American character has already been lost...
or sullied.
Please...not again.

if you define "diversify risk" to mean "spread contagion faster than the Ebola virus."
...over epidemicity."
"I'd rather that everybody (ALL the coal-miners were)
was sick instead of being given a diagnostic alarum...
sort of canary in the coal-mine sort of warning system."
Medieval days when the walls were finally breached
and the women and probably the children were just plain...fair game.
Only difference is 500 years.
We are SUCH a brutal species.
About 80 per cent of the potato crop can be used for human consumption, significantly more than for cereals like corn and wheat.Farmers can also produce a much bigger potato crop on the same amount of land as cereals, and in less time,...

Isn't is nice that he's not on the ground...
Expectant, hesitating at the urban corner...
For the subtle snap`ping sound that waits for him...finally.
And terrific...not that , in this day of the ephemera and the quickie,
I'm a fan of long posts.
But's`o nice to be regaled by good sense both all at onct
by Mr Phillips AND HTWW.
so, thnx... then.
["Disclaimer!", he cried "No, I haven't read it yet, but will, Boss soon...soon!."]
is ABOUT and illustrates people who are hypocrites,
to describe them...in whatever gory detail..is essential and in no way
otherwise ad hominem . So that's silly.
2)Detail, quibble:
Put another way, where someone advocates "Principle X," one can either (a) contest the validity of Principle X or (b) insist that Principle X be applied equally to its advocate.
I think that the first advocates verb should rather be something like applies or uses. It makes better application for and brings balance to the argument.
