Shake a Leg

I suffer from mild RLS. My mom has it pretty bad. My grandmother had it really bad.
It’s good to know that it’s finally getting the research attention and press coverage
it deserves. Before it was a common diagnosis, doctors told my mom it was all in
her head – in a psychological rather than neurological sense.

“TRENTON, N.J. – About one in 10 people suffer weekly from a syndrome that causes
leg discomfort and leads to sleeplessness, and few are properly diagnosed by their
physicians, according to a drug company-funded study to be released Tuesday.”

Woohoo! Someone has decided my blog’s interesting enough to read regularly. 🙂 I
should probably clean up the design one of these days and make a link back page.
Stupid real life, be less busy. 😉

I just found out about this link so I haven’t had a chance to read it. Still, I
thought it’d be polite to plug it.

As a person of Welsh descent, an appreciator of dying tongues, and a supporter of several underdogs, this is a matter of some importance to me.

Trouble in the Motherland:
Impending Death of Welsh as a Community Language

“According to the evidence submitted to the United Nations on May 27 – 31, 2002 in Geneva, Wales is currently experiencing a cultural crisis of such severity that they fall under the United Nations resolution Article 27 of The International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. This protects threatened minority languages and cultures. The problem is that during the past 200 years, England has never bothered to develop this vassal past agriculture and mining.”
