How to Deal with Pre-Meal Blood Sugar Spikes
 
Diabetics all have those challenging days and hours: What do you do if it's getting close to your meal time and your blood sugar is above 240 mg/dl?

High blood sugar before a meal tells you that your liver is making too much glucose and needs to be told to slow down, says the American Diabetes Association (ADA). The signal it needs is insulin.

Because it takes time for insulin to be absorbed from the skin, and additional time to reduce the liver's glucose production, the ADA suggests that you take your usual dose of insulin and wait 60-90 minutes to eat (instead of the usual 30-45). This will allow your blood sugar level to fall toward the normal range before you eat, giving the insulin a "head start."

The goal is not to become low before eating, but to regain control over high blood sugar.

An alternative is to take lispro insulin 15-30 minutes before your meal, which should lower your blood sugar more rapidly than regular insulin.

This group is called "Peckers Pics."  The English -  slang definition of "pecker" is to pluck at the truth. Therefore, we peck at items such as Gay Men's Health, Male Fitness, Gay (LGBT) Politics & Issues.  In this section you may peck at each photo in order to decide the winner of the "war of the fittest!"  Whereas, who is the model that may inspire you to exercise and "get fit?"  Warning: This may stoke you!

Pawlenty would support reinstating 'Don't ask, don't tell'
 
By Michael O'Brien - 01/13/11 - The Hill's / by Igor Volsky
 

Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty (R) would seek to reinstate the military's ban on openly gay and lesbian service members, he said Wednesday.

Pawlenty, a possible candidate for president in 2012, said that he would favor reinstating the military's "Don't ask, don't tell" policy.

"I have been a public supporter of maintaining "Don't ask, don't tell" and I would support reinstating it as well," Pawlenty told radio host Bryan Fischer in an interview.

Reinstating the ban would require an act of Congress, since the House and Senate voted late last year to end the policy. That legislation made its way to President Obama for signature with the support of some congressional Republicans. That means that even if Pawlenty were to win the White House in 2012, he'd face a tough time winning the votes to reinstate the ban.

One critic of the "Don't ask" repeal, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), has already pivoted on the policy. He said last week that he "will do everything I can to make it work."
