I noticed a shift in the first season of this show vs. the latter seasons.. The first season seemed to have only an occasional encounter of what they might consider to be related to the paranormal. The latter seasons, however, it seems that darn near every episode has one. Has anyone else noticed this?</description><pubDate>Fri, 14 Aug 2009 16:45:42 GMT</pubDate><author>zoey7879</author></item><item><title>Hidden Treaasures!</title><link>http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1930402.aspx</link><description>Ok I am a bit nervous about starting this post as I haven't posted a discussion in a long time and have only recently managed to get back on the Lot but you got to bite the bullet some time so might as well get on with it![em]blink[/em]

At the beginning of December our car finally died - it was a sudden death but the car had been extremely ill for some time so not totally unexpected! We got a new (used but new to us) car which I love and which is a far better car than the previous one ever was. The biggest drawback was the music provision - it had a radio and a tape deck! I mean who still has tapes? Sorry p1ke it was a rhetorical question - you can put your hand down now![em]wink[/em]

A few times in the last 3 months I have offered to buy a new cd player for the car but my other half and I decided against it for a few reasons and decided for now we could live with the radio. 

Saturday my other half was cleaning out the car when what did he find under the passenger seat but a 6 disc cd player connected up to the car stereo! lol It works brilliantly and is a real hidden treasure! Not bad it only took us 3 months to find it! I have an excuse as I cannot bend over to look under seats but if I still could I would have found the cd player months ago - no excuse for the other half! lol

So have you ever found any hidden treasure? Discovered something that you love but didn't know you had? I don't want to keep thinking we are the only dim wits on the planet! lol

Talk to me folks please?xxxxx</description><pubDate>Wed, 04 Mar 2009 19:17:02 GMT</pubDate><author>mummymo</author></item><item><title>Where do you buy your beading supplies?</title><link>http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1046792.aspx</link><description>For all of you beaders and jewelry makers out there -- where do you buy your beading supplies? I am looking for some sites online to buy supplies from. Right now I get most of my stuff from Hobby Lobby, Michael's, etc, and sometimes it gets a bit pricey. I can't buy stuff in too big of lots, because I have a somewhat limited amount of space for my supplies (my bedroom is also my beading room. It also happens to be my boyfriends bedroom also). Of course, I am looking for quality materials, and something that hopefully isn't terribly expensive for shipping.

I would really appreciate any info! If you want to take a look at some of the stuff I have in stock right now, my shop is www.tangerinesunshine.etsy.com

</description><pubDate>Mon, 15 Dec 2008 09:44:21 GMT</pubDate><author>chantalgiardina</author></item><item><title>This must be survey month...</title><link>http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1829373.aspx</link><description>because in the last two days I have earned $18 from two sites...$12 from one beig mailed to me and $6 has been credited to my account awaiting another $2 for minimum cashout.

The best sites that I have been with and I actually been paid from I will list so you guys can check them out...

--&amp;gt; Pineconeresearch (you can only join when you see the banner on web pages, there is not referral and they just don't accept people all the time. But I have received multiple payments from them via paypal.

--&amp;gt; your2cents. This site I do not receive many srveys from but on average I qualify for most invites I receive and I hve been paid by thm once this year already and now awaiting my $2 needed for cashout. They also do not have a referral program.

One of my other survey sites I am very close to cash out according to my points. I have been paid by them twice in forms o money and gift card...and I noticed where I barely received invites over the last few months over the last few weeks I have had tons. So if you would like to join this one let me know because they do have a referral bonus of 150 points per person referred. Tey send out product samples and pay you in points for surveys to qualify for evaluations and follow-up surveys. Just let me know.

I am pretty happy with my earnings over the last few days and I have to make sure next year I am more organized around this time of year. December must be very imporant in the survey industry.

Do you notice more surveys around the end of the year?</description><pubDate>Thu, 11 Dec 2008 18:28:36 GMT</pubDate><author>taface412</author></item><item><title>If it's still wrapped, it's still good.  Fact or fiction?</title><link>http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/617111.aspx</link><description>I'm tearing up my living room looking for my remote and I found an old Starburst.  I remember the old commercial where a guy found one in the back of his car and he ate it because it's still wrapped.  I can't remember ever buying Starburst, and I think this might have come with the couch.  But it's still wrapped, does that mean it's still good?</description><pubDate>Wed, 17 Jan 2007 09:18:36 GMT</pubDate><author>ugachaka</author></item><item><title>crocin medicine</title><link>http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/479593.aspx</link><description>CROCIN 1000:-

Paracetamol, an old drug used mainly for treatment of fever, has been in use the world over for several decades now. In most countries the drug is sold as an OTC product and is usually taken with no medical supervision. India and China are probably the two largest producers of this drug. And there are a number of brands and generics of the drug available in the market today. In India, amongst paracetamol brands and generics, the market leader, undoubtedly, is Crocin. Until recently, the maximum strength of a paracetamol formulation used to be 500 mg including that of Crocin. SmithKline Beecham which owns this brand, has recently introduced an extension of this brand namely Crocin 1000 containing 1000 mg of paracetamol in one tablet. Crocin 1000 is being promoted as a pain reliever for chronic conditions like osteoarthritis, rheumatic arthritis, headache, toothache, period pain and muscle pain on the label of the bottle. The label does not carry any warning on the hazards of an overdose or prolonged usage on vital human organs. At the same time the label assures that Crocin 1000 does not irritate the stomach and the maximum daily dose can go upto 4000 mg. The new brand is marketed in a bottle of 40 tablets.

The safety of this high strength brand in the Indian market has raised serious concerns amongst consumer action groups and drug experts particularly in the wake of findings of a recent study conducted by Dr. William Lee of the University of Texas. The study has proved that there is a direct link between paracetamol overdose and liver failure. Dr Lee had tracked more than 300 cases of acute liver failures at 22 hospitals in the US and found 38 percent of these associated with excessive paracetamol usage. The study also found the paracetamol link to 35 percent of the 307 adults suffering from severe liver damage at 6 US hospitals. In UK, 20 people had to undergo liver transplant as a result of paracetamol induced liver poisoning in 1997.The British government, subsequently, had to impose restrictions on the sale of paracetamol preparations as an OTC product. These reports should be alarming to drug control machinery in India with regulatory machinery being weak in several states. First of all, marketing permission for a 1000 mg single dose of paracetamol should have been granted with adequate medical consultation, as it is an OTC product. The claim of the company about the product's effectiveness for osteoarthritis, rheumatic arthritis, etc sound definitely unethical and exaggerated. Karnataka drug controller should have known what claims the company was planning to print on the label of this product before issuing the manufacturing licence. As claims on an OTC product like this can lead to its overconsumption, the product needs to be recalled and should be allowed to be marketed only with all possible cautions in the interest of public safety.

Now a new study says it helps keep the arteries of the heart flexible, relaxed and dilated...thus more healthy. They are not ready to say it will keep you from getting a heart attack or stroke, but it sounds good anyway.
