Despite spending many hours outdoors and taking vitamin D supplements, he is often at the low end of healthy vitamin D levels, he said. A black man in Chicago needs at least 90 minutes, three times a week in the sun to produce the same amount of vitamin D a white man in Chicago can in 15 minutes three times per week, Murphy said. He recommends everyone — and black men in particular — get more vitamin D. In addition to sun exposure, he says black men in Chicago should take at least 2500 IU of vitamin D each day. [link to www.psychologytoday.com] Schizophrenia has also been linked with abnormal levels of vitamin D. John McGrath of the University of Queensland in Australia studied 424 Danish newborns who developed schizophrenia.

| Captain Spaulding User ID: 20103158 12/26/2012 07:14 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Remember the guy who raped a young man and was being led into court to face charges and got shot point blank in the side of the head by the victims Father? Dad was faking talking on a public phone and when the cops walked the rapist past him he turned and put the gun to the side of the perv's head and popped him. The Father got a suspended sentence if I remember right. This Father didn't talk all whiney ass about "hoping the guy finds redemption". And he didn't wait for the court to slap the jerk on the wrist. He fixed it so the guy wouldn't do it again himself. Sadly, this dead kids father raised a boy who didn't know how to protect himself from being a victim. BE AWARE OF YOUR SURROUNDINGS, FOLLOW YOUR INSTINCTS AND WALK WITH CONFIDENCE. It works. I lived in the Silverlake/Echo park and Compton areas of Los Angeles (arguably some of the most violent neighborhoods in the US) for several years. And I'm still here typing this. (I'm a gun owner but I never carried, even in those "hoods") |

If I had just been given life in prison with no possibility of parole I would have gone shrieking berserk, too. I'm not saying he didn't deserve the sentence, just that I understand going crazy when you actually realize what the rest of your life is going to be like. The sentence was fair but hits like a brick. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 27352798 ![]() Right, because no way would you expect a sentence that harsh to be handed down after you'd just murdered someone and then spent all of your court dates taunting the family. And the LORD spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin, then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it." Amen. |
