Birth
Month Seen Linked to Multiple Sclerosis Risk

LONDON (Reuters) - People born in May in the northern hemisphere have a higher than
average risk of developing multiple sclerosis, researchers said on
Tuesday.

"If you are born in May, your risk is higher than any
other month and if you are born in November your risk is lower than any
other month," Professor George Ebers, of Radcliffe Infirmary at the
University of Oxford, said in an interview.

Although the scientists
cannot explain the correlation between birth month and MS, they suspect it
could be linked to exposure to sunlight and the mother's vitamin D levels,
which could influence the child's development.

Shorter days
during the winter months in the northern hemisphere limit the amount of
sunlight women are exposed to during pregnancy. The body makes vitamin D
from sunlight. Foods such as oily fish and egg yolk are rich in the
vitamin.

My sister's first mother died of MS. I wish my grandmother
were still alive.I would be curious of any of the things about this match
her pregnancy. This is really interesting.

work rant

I am a genormous slacker. I have to be. There are compelte fuckwits that make a lot more money than me.

At my job, there is this man that is about 50 years old  and to look at him, Tech Support would not be what you guessed his proffession would be.  There was a time that my pc was completely fucked. I called my manager and told her my hard drive is fucked and I need to  switch pc's. Due to the inventory issue, I cannot just go and grab another pc from an empty desk.

The next day I was out and when I came back my mouse and keyboard were gone. Let me be clear. These are mine. From home. It is an ergonomic keyboard and mouse. I flip for half a second, then come to my senses and calmly ask where they  are.

Apparently, the old tech dude took them and put them up because they caused the hard drive to fail.

Imma say that again.

My keyboard and mouse caused my hard drive to fail. Now, when I sat down and used the keyboard that came with it, the pc still didn;'t work because the hard drive was fucked just like I said it was. He unplugged my shit. Plugged back in the old shit and didnt turn the damn thing on to see if it worked.

yeah.... he makes about 6k more a year than I do.
