Stargate question

What do they eventually call that critter that Daniel first ate on Abydos and said tasted like chicken?

Don't allow yourself to be drawn in!

It's always difficult when you have to deal with a really stupid person to get information you need. It is also important NOT to let the stupid person lead you by then hand into the stupid WITH them.

Interesting story from NPR this morning about a technique that seems to provide good results in eliminating lower back pain for a lot of people.

For me, a person who basically goes to the doctor if there's something wrong, this was a reminder that you can't always rely on your doctor to have done the common sense thinking for you.

I am totally not suprised that if you teach people to watch out for what things they are doing that are hurting their backs, and show them how to avoid doing those things, then amazingly, they will stop doing the things that hurt their backs and they will feel much better!

The fact that this is not already a standard part of how back pain is treated just hits me in the spot that relys on doctors for my physical health.

My prejudicies, let me show myself them and try to get past them.
