Why I Have Allergies, Why They Make Me Sick, and What I Can Do About Them
Why do I have allergies? Can I develop allergies?
As a retired Registered Nurse, I'm often asked questions just like this about allergy information. People want to know what makes them different from their friends who can enjoy the outdoors, pet their cats, and dust their house without a sniffle.
Allergies tend to be genetic, running in families. Interestingly though, family members are not always allergic to the same things. Their allergies may not always affect them the same way. Dad may be allergic to almost all the pollens, sister allergic to several foods, grasses and animals, and little brother allergic to mold and ragweed. Mom and big brother may have no allergies at all. One family member may have hives or skin allergies, another asthma, and another hay fever. Or they may have any combination of these three.
"A family history of allergies is the single most important factor that predisposes a person to develop allergic disease. If one parent has allergic disease, the estimated risk of the child to develop allergies is 48%; the child's risk grows to 70% if both parents have allergies."
From www.AAAAI.org
Exposure to new allergens can also bring on allergic symptoms. It's very common for me to hear people say, "I didn't have any allergies at all until I moved here." They may be referring to a move from another area of the country where there are different pollens present, or just a move across town, perhaps to a home with different environmental allergens present. Either way, these people probably already had a genetic tendency toward allergies, often called "atopy" or being "atopic" by those in the medical field. Sometimes atopy is associated with an "allergic triad", which is:
- Asthma
- Dermatitis (Allergic Skin Conditions)
- Rhinitis (Hay Fever)
What this means is that the person who has this genetic tendency toward hypersensitivity is more likely to develop asthma, allergic skin conditions, or allergic rhinitis. There seems to be an association between these three diseases. The person who experiences one of them is more likely to suffer from one or both of the others at some time in their life. Atopic people are more susceptible to developing an overreactive immune system. The immune system is the part of our body that fights bacteria, viruses, and anything else it recognizes as foreign. But it becomes hypersensitive when it begins to see normal substances as intruders.
Why do allergies make me sick?
Our bodies are a fascinating handiwork. We are created in such a way that every part coordinates in minute precision with every other part.
For example, on the surfaces of some cells there are tiny areas that require powerful microscopes to explore. These areas are receptors for antibodies. As you might know, antibodies are cells that ward off infection, viruses, and other threats. Antibodies are highly specialized. Each has it's own specific assignment. Some are responsible to fight a certain virus, others to fight a specific bacteria. Antibodies are also called immunoglobulins. Immunoglobulin E (IgE) is the antibody commonly associated with allergies.
"Each type of IgE has specific 'radar' for one type of allergen only. That's why some people are only allergic to cat dander (they only have the IgE antibodies specific to cat dander) and others seem to be allergic to everything (they have many more types of IgE antibodies.)"
-- From www.AAAAI.org
Receptor cells for IgE are located in various parts of the body, including areas near the eyes, ears, sinuses, throat, lungs, skin, and gastrointestinal tract. These receptor cells are called mast cells. Other cells with receptors for IgE are in the blood stream. They are called basophils. A few other cells have receptors for IgE also, but mast cells and basophils are the most prominent ones.
The problem for allergy sufferers occurs when the body becomes confused about substances such as pollen, dust mites, cat dander, common molds, foods or medications. Each of these substances can be recognized as an intruder, and the body begins creating IgE antibodies toward it. But it is not usually able to get the mature IgE in place soon enough to do much damage in the first round.
However, the body has a fantastic memory! It never forgets that challenge to it's integrity. The next time the immune system is exposed to that allergy information or allergen, such as cat dander, it rapidly produces IgE cat dander antibodies. As these IgE antibodies are produced, a complicated chain of microscopic events takes place within just a few minutes. This results in presentation of the IgE antibody to the mast cells in the tissues surrounding the eyes, sinuses, nose, and lungs, and to basophils in the blood stream. The receptors on mast cells have a high affinity or liking for IgE antibodies. The union of IgE antibodies with mast cells enables the allergen to cross-link between two of the antibodies. As allergens begin to rapidly cross-link with more IgE on the receptor sites of the mast cell, the mast cell releases powerful chemicals such as histamines and leukotrienes, both of which mediate (or bring on) inflammation.
Inflammation is not always bad. Inflammation causes the blood vessels in the skin to dilate, allowing blood to rush in, bringing antibodies to fight the infection or intruder. As the blood rushes to the area, fluid containing antibodies is leaked into the surrounding tissues from the blood, and the tissues become swollen. Antibodies in this swollen area are working hard to fight infection.
But for the allergy sufferer, this inflammatory process is not needed, because there is no real intruder to fight. The inflammation in the allergic response releases chemicals that can cause itching in the eyes and skin and congestion in the sinuses and lungs. This results in swelling and increased mucous production which can obstruct breathing and cause a runny nose and itchy, watery eyes. In some cases hives may occur as fluid seeps into the outer layers of skin. Each time the allergy sufferer is exposed to the allergen, another series of these microscopic processes occurs. As long as there is exposure to the allergen, there seems to be no end to the inflammatory response.
It's also important to note that hours after recovery from the initial allergic reaction, a second or late phase reaction may occur. In the late phase, the receptor cells in the blood (basophils) influence other blood cells called eosinophils to release more mediators of inflammation. Enzymes are released during this late phase, some of which can cause permanent tissue damage if allowed to continue over time. This is especially serious for asthmatics because it can lead to what doctors call "airway remodeling." The lungs are remodeled by replacing healthy tissue with scar tissue. For additional information on this late phase response, see the section titled "Early and late phase reactions" on the following page: http://www.worldallergy.org/professional/allergic_diseases_center/ige/. You may also be interested in viewing the video included in that section.
"Eosinophils also play prominent roles in late-phase reactions that affect some people with allergies and asthma, particularly with symptoms of nasal congestion that can occur hours after an initial episode of allergic rhinitis. If you have uncontrolled asthma, constant eosinophil activity may lead to airway remodeling - the replacement of healthy tissue with scar tissue - and can potentially cause irreversible loss of lung function.
Preventing this type of serious lung damage is one of the main goals of treating asthma early and aggressively..."
-- From Allergies and Asthma For Dummies by William E. Berger, M.D.
The First Line of Defense: Avoidance
The first recommendation I always make to people is to avoid the allergens to which they are allergic. If you can totally avoid the things you are allergic to, then you can eliminate all remaining action steps. Unfortunately, it is almost impossible to totally avoid allergens since they are a prominent part of our environment. But we can take some very helpful steps to prevent exposure to many of them.
For example, when people tell me they wake up with allergy symptoms, allergy testing often shows that it's because they have been breathing in dust mite allergen all night! I can help them eliminate a lot of their problem by recommending they purchase mite-proof mattress, box spring and pillow covers. Dust mites feed on our dead skin cells that slough off in our mattresses and pillows. By simply covering our beds and pillows with mite-proof encasings, we will be helping prevent allergies by putting up a major barrier that dust mite allergen can't penetrate. Even for those without dust mite allergies, mite-proof covers can also protect against cat dander, mold, or other allergens that settle in our mattresses and pillows.
Our climate is very humid during these summer months, so I also recommend a dehumidifier for patients with environmental or mold allergies. By reducing the humidity in our homes to around 50%, we can make it difficult for mold and dust mites to survive. Don't forget to have your air ducts checked by a professional air cleaning service also. Mold growth or buildup of pet dander and other allergens in the furnace and ducts can keep allergens continually circulating in your home. Be sure to select a good quality furnace filter also. A furnace filter designed to remove pet hair, mold, smoke particles, bacteria, and viruses can go a long way toward making the air you breathe cleaner.
Other measures I recommend to prevent allergies include laundering all bedding in hot, soapy water (or adding a cold-water mite killing agent); using HEPA air cleaners; dusting frequently; using easy to clean window treatments; and weekly vacuuming (be sure your vacuum has a good HEPA filter also). If you're allergic to pollens, avoidance is a little harder. Just walk outside your door and you're exposed. But simple measures such as wearing a Latex-Free Mask when mowing the lawn or gardening, and keeping the windows closed in your home and car can help.
For those with mild allergies, this first line of defense may be enough. But often medication must be added to the treatment plan.
The Second Line of Defense: Medications
Antihistamines and leukotriene modifiers (sometimes called antileukotrienes) block the histamine and leukotrienes that are released when antibodies unite with mast cells. Allergy products like Antihistamines are used for some allergic skin reactions such as hives, as well as respiratory allergies such as hayfever and are available as prescriptions and over the counter. If you are going to have a skin test for allergies, be sure to stop taking any type of antihistamine a few days prior to the test. If present in your system, they could block the reaction in the skin so the test would appear to show no allergies when in fact you might have some (also called a false negative). Allergy products like Leukotriene modifiers are used to treat allergic hayfever and asthma. They may also be helpful in treating angioedema (generalized swelling which can cut off the airways). Since it is the release of histamine that causes the positive reaction in skin testing, leukotriene modifiers usually do not need to be stopped prior to skin testing. Read product labeling carefully as some antihistamines can cause drowsiness and should not be taken when driving or operating machinery. Leukotriene modifiers usually have minimal or no side-effects.
Oral decongestants help to reduce congestion and stuffiness in the sinuses. People with high blood pressure should not take these decongestants because they can elevate blood pressure. They can also cause some people to feel jittery. Occasionally they may cause a rapid heartbeat, and if this occurs you should stop taking the decongestant and consult your physician. Over the counter nasal decongestant sprays are not as likely to cause side effects as oral decongestants because less is absorbed. However, if you experience dizziness or a rapid heart beat while using over-the-counter nasal sprays, you should stop them immediately and check with your physician. Prolonged use of over-the-counter nasal decongestant sprays can cause a rebound effect in which the spray itself initiates the congestion. This results in increased symptoms and dependency on the spray to overcome the rebound effect it causes. Never use over-the-counter nasal decongestant sprays for more than a few days without your doctor's advice.
Prescription-strength nasal steroid sprays and a nasal antihistamine spray are also available. These help reduce the inflammation caused by the allergic response. At recommended doses, nasal steroid sprays are usually considered safe for even long-term use, since only very minute amounts are absorbed systemically. They usually don't cause the side effects of oral decongestants. Never use more than the prescribed dose of these sprays - usually one to two sprays in each nostril once a day. To minimize systemic absorption, always use the lowest prescribed dose that works for you. If one spray works, don't use two! Many doctors recommend saline nasal irrigation to help moisten and cleanse the nose and lower sinuses.
Asthma is often associated with allergies, and asthma attacks can be triggered by airborne allergens. Asthma medications are usually one of two types, a long-term control medication or a quick-relief or "rescue" medication. Orally inhaled steroids, which reduce inflammation, are an example of a long-term asthma medication. Many physicians recommend them as a baseline treatment for asthmatic patients. Bronchodilators are often prescribed to relax smooth muscles in the airways. They may be used as long-term medications, but often they are used as quick-relief rescue medications. They can sometimes cause the heart to beat irregularly or too fast.
Cromolyn sodium prepares the mast cell to prevent the release of histamine and leukotrienes. It is sometimes recommended to help prevent allergies prior to exposure. Cromolyn sodium should not be used to treat an allergic attack. To be effective, it must be used several days or weeks prior to exposure to the allergen. Cromolyn sodium is considered safe when used as directed. However if you experience any unusual symptoms while using it, you should stop it immediately and check with your physician.
There are other treatments and medications that are sometimes prescribed. Always follow your doctor's recommendations carefully and share with your physician any questions or concerns you may have.
The Third Line of Defense: Allergy Injections
Also known as allergy shots, these are small doses of the actual allergen to which you are allergic that are injected into the skin. The study of how allergy injections work is very interesting. It is also a bit confusing, because there is still much research going on in this area. It might be helpful to review Part 1 of this series for a detailed explanation of allergic response as a refresher prior to reading this next section.
One widely accepted theory is that, for reasons yet unknown, when allergens are injected into the skin rather than inhaled as normal, the body doesn't recognize the offending allergen in the same way. Instead of developing IgE antibodies as usual, the body begins developing IgG antibodies toward the allergens. It is thought that these IgG antibodies actually block the IgE antibodies from uniting with the receptor sites on mast cells. If you recall from Part 1 of this series, it is the union of IgE antibodies and mast cells that initiates allergy symptoms. It is also thought that eventually allergy injections may result in a decrease in IgE, though it is not known for sure how this works.
The goal of allergy injections (also known as immunotherapy) is to be able to reduce or eliminate the need for medications, and after several years even the shots themselves. Many people find they can be exposed to moderate amounts of the offending allergen with less or no symptoms after they have been on allergy shots for awhile. For example, they may be able to mow the lawn or pet their cat without a major allergy attack. However, some people do find that at least some of their symptoms eventually return after shots are discontinued. Always talk with your doctor before changing your medication regimen or stopping your injections. This is especially important if you have asthma.
"Three basic therapeutic techniques should be considered in treating either seasonal or perennial allergic rhinitis:
- avoidance of the offending allergens
- use of appropriate drugs
- immunotherapy (injection treatments to effect hyposensitization or desensitization)
When feasible, avoidance is the preferred form of treatment, since it both relieves symptoms and eradicates the cause of the difficulty."
JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION Nov. 27 1987-Vol. 258, No. 20, Pp. 2854, 2855; M. Kaliner, MD, P. Eggleston, MD and K. Mathews, MD
For many people, a combination of avoidance, medications, and allergy injections are needed to control their symptoms in the beginning. Once under control, some patients have been able to gradually eliminate medications through the supervision of their physician. Eventually some patients are able to stop allergy shots with only minimal symptom return. Even then, we still recommend they use environmental control measures when possible to provide optimal symptom control and less exposure to the allergen. Less exposure means less challenge to the immune system, thus it may mean less chance that the allergy symptoms will return when shots are discontinued. You should always talk with your physician about which approaches are best for you.

Virgin Australia Increases Weekday Services between Perth and Karratha06/06/2013
Virgin Australia today announced that it will increase direct services between Perth and the Pilbara town of Karratha in Western Australia as a result of strong demand from the mining and resources industry.
From 1 July 2013, three weekly return services will be added between Perth and Karratha. These additional weekday services will be operated by Virgin Australia's 98-seat Embraer 190 jet aircraft as part of Virgin Australia's regional growth strategy, building on the recent acquisition of Skywest Airlines.
The new services will depart Perth at 6.00am on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday arriving in Karratha at 8.05am.
Virgin Australia Regional Airlines Group Executive, Merren McArthur said: "Karratha is one of the fastest growing mining towns in Australia and these new flights from Perth are being added in response to strong demand.
"We have listened to our customers and they were asking for additional frequencies, particularly in the morning peaks. With these additional services Virgin Australia will offer 34 flights per week between Perth and Karratha."
"Following the recent integration of Skywest Airlines into the Virgin Australia Group, we now have a strong West Australian base and focus which enables us to quickly identify and respond to growth opportunities in the region, particularly in the high-growth fly-in-fly-out markets. We will continue to review market demand and look forward to growing our regional services right across Australia", Ms McArthur said.
Virgin Australia's newly enhanced regional operation currently has 32 aircraft operating over 800 services per week to 41 different destinations.
Virgin Australia offers competitive airfares on the Perth-Karratha route with fares starting from $269 one-way1.
*Times and prices correct at time of publication
1Includes taxes. If paying by credit card or debit card a Booking and Service Fee of $7.70 per person per booking is applicable for all flights within Australia.

High Frontier
High Frontier - 0.9.6
Lasse Folkersen (lassefolkersen)
The goal of High Frontier is a civilization-like game, which uses more realistic modelling of economy, climate, research and migration. Uniquely this game starts today - the initiation date of a game is todays date and the existing world is the world as we know it today, complete with cities and countries and people. The aim from there - that is whatever the player thinks the aim is for the world. Developing of the underdeveloping world, action against climate changes, expansion into the rest of the solar system, or just racking in a lot of money.
The game is currently somewhat playable. Working features include:
- Google-earth-like map view of the Earth and all other bodies of the solar system. Complete solar system model with accurate orbital data.
- Underlying economical model based on agents (countries or companies) buying and selling goods thereby setting price. Genetic/evolutionary algorithm copies variations of best agents thus continuously perfecting the AI decisions
- Infinitly expandable research tree based on automatic technology-name generation by random selction from lists of tech-buzz-words (same way as it happens in the real world)
- climate model, including the feature of changing sea levels based on topographical maps of the planet in question. Nice for terraforming a northern ocean on Mars. Less nice for rampant greenhouse-effects on earth (allows checking if your country should worry more or less about carbon emission in real life as well)
This version is nearing a playable state. Do you develop new clean energy technology to save the world? Rely on the supplies of nuclear fuel to keep the economics going? Take to space in search of new resources? Or just sit back and watch the waters rise (or whatever will happen)?
Most important issue:
-- crash reports. If you play the game and it crashes, it would be very helpful if you could provide the contents of the 'intro.exe.log' file for debugging.
Minor things that needs more tweaking:
-- Migration model and growth model are still not switched on, so bases won't grow beyond their initial size. They need a bit more balancing
-- Difficulties with living in non-earth environments are not really reflected yet.
Thins that has been done in this release:

"Not for me, looked way better on line- not practical for daily wear and I dont go clubbing often enough to keep them. also where the tie was awkward, almost to where they can slip off"

Elegant party shoes
"These are really elegant and chic high heels perfectly for party. The only concern is about the height. People who are not used to super high heels may not feel comfortable walking with them. Other than that, they are a great match with LBD or mini cocktail dress."

These shoes rock
"These shoes are tough to get into but once you have them on, they are comfortable and secure even 5" off the ground. Great features and the shoe hugs your foot and gives that added stability that you need in uber-high heels. They are going on a cruise, so it could be long evenings. Very dressy but sexy fun."

Lowest Price Guarantee
Eliminate lace bite on any pair of skates with these universal lace bite pads. These pads lace on top of the tongue giving extra support, while still allowing for flex of the boot.
- Lace Bite is pressure from the laces on the tendons running on top of the foot. This can cause sharp pains or an uncomfortable pressure on top of the foot
- These pads fit between the tongue and laces
- In addition they offer some added protection for blocking shots
- Complete with (2) pads
- Fits most adult size skates
- Approximately 9" x 3.5"
Comments: I used them for 2 games. Yes they take away the lace bite but also they took away any feeling for the skate and lacing the skate is problematic. Can't tighten them enough that the leg would not move inside. or me they are too thick and I can't use them.
From: Eikki, Reston, VA
Comments: I fully disagree with that review from above, i just used the lace bite pads in a game and they are completely legit. NO lacebite, super comfy and absolutely worth every penny.
From: Mark, AZ
Comments:I did not find these pads useful. They were far to rigid and thick to be affective. Due to their thickness and rigidity, they did not conform well to the contour of the skate tongue (curvature up the front and across the top of the skate tongue). This ended up causing odd pressure points, and defeated the purpose of the pads. A side note is that even on an adult size 10 skate these pads made it difficult to lace the skates and to tighten them.

No matter what you think of Kanye West and his egotistical antics, he remains the most interesting and inventive artist working in rap today. He's also the most open: "My girl a superstar all from a home movie," West raps on the sublimely menacing Clique, a reference to current squeeze Kim Kardashian's infamous sex tape.
It's a shame there aren't more ultra-personal moments like that on Cruel Summer, a showcase for West's G.O.O.D. Music collective that veers between brilliant, boring and bonkers in equal measures. Occasionally they leave you breathless, like Pusha T and Ghostface Killah's fired-up exchanges over the Watch the Throne-style widescreen lope of highlight New God Flow.
It's a trick repeated on the minimal blips and bleeps of Cold and the old-school thump of group effort The Morning. So there's no faulting the album's production, but there are too many hit-and-miss guest spots, like Kid Cudi's career low on Creepers, John Legend's warped R&B symphony Bliss, and Big Sean's ridiculous "ass" metaphors on Mercy.
Otherwise it's an enjoyable but wayward rap party, but Cruel Summer lacks the single-minded vision West displayed on 2010's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. If rumours of a sequel called Cruel Winter are true, let's have more Kanye please.
Stars: 3.5/5
Verdict: Not enough Kanye
- TimeOut

Megabass Ito Vision 110+1 Jerkbait
The Megabasss Ito Vision 110+1 Jerkbait is designed to dive 3ft deeper in depth than the original Ito Vision 110. The 110+1's medium bill is crafted to eliminate the traditional issues of high water-resistance, fatigue, and deadened darting-action often associated with long-bill minnows, while at the same time preserving the legendary action of the original 110. By positioning the line-eye close to the body, water resistance is reduced, making it easier to work the 110+1. Preliminary field-testing by Megabass' pro staff indicates that it requires even less effort than the original Ito Vision 110. In addition, this angler-friendly design also channels more water towards the lure's forehead and along the carefully sculpted body, allowing for an irresistible darting action with the slightest angler input. Available in a range of Megabass' detailed colors, the Megabass Ito Vision 110+1 is finished off with sticky-sharp Katsuage hooks, two internal rattles, and a dual-tungsten Multi-Way Moving Balancer System, designed to produce superior long-distance castability - even in tough conditions. The Megabass Ito Vision 110+1: The legend just got deeper.

Customer Reviews
Comments: this is by far my favorite rip bait. It has produced hundreds of fish for me over the years. The only thing that sucks is the pain of breaking one of these things off. They aren't cheap.
From: Pat: Santa Clara, CA 11/11/14
Comments: This bait very appropriately picks up where the original and its shallower counterparts left off. It's money for the deeper suspended fish. My only complaint is that the outbarb hooks chew up the sides of the bait pretty good. That being said, they are definitely very sticky and increase the chance of hookups.
From: Tom: Rome, NY 7/4/14
Comments: This is an awesome bait. In my top 3 of jerkbaits along with a ima flit 120 and a lucky craft pointer. Japan makes the best baits!
From: Pete: Oil City, PA
Comments: head down tail up... this thing darts quick.. pause so the fish is able to catch it
From: gerkbait fanatic: CA
Comments: Caught my first 3 jerkbait fish of the year on a 110+1 today. This lure will be a producer just like the 110.
From: Chris: Moosic, PA
Comments: Just in time for deep diving, suspending rip bait season! This bait is already whackin em, folks. One of the few DD ripbaits I have tried that fishes like a ripbait once you get 'er down deep. Hell, you can even just crank it back in.

Thanks in part to a 10-0 shellacking of Louisville Wednesday night, the Carrier Mills American Legion club will head into the 1st District Tournament Saturday as the No. 1 seed at Grayville.
Gallatin County's Wes McGuire started the game for Post 364 going three innings after nursing a strained muscle in his lower back.
McGuire gave up singles to the first two Louisville hitters followed by two strikeouts, a walked batter and another strikeout to finish the inning holding Louisville scoreless.
Louisville then did not record another hit the rest of the game and only managed one base runner coming by way of a walk in the second inning.
Austin Ferrell took over on the mound in the fourth, replacing McGuire who allowed two hits, two walks and five strikeouts. Ferrell allowed zero hits, no walks and struck out two.
Carrier Mills got things going early when Jarred Jackson and Josh Bailey both reached via single. Darren Betz then hit into a 6-4 fielder's choice to get Bailey out at second. Dane Hish drove in Jackson for Carrier Mills' first run of the game.
In the second inning, Ferrell reached on an error, Skyler Smith laid down a sacrifice-bunt to move Ferrell, and Kyle Wise singled to score Ferrell.
Lane Hutson followed with a walk and a bad throwing cost Louisville two more runs as Wise and Hutson both scored. Bailey was walked and later scored on a throwing error,
In the third Ferrell walked, Smith got a single and Wise reached base via the walk. Hutson produced a sacrifice-fly to score Ferrell.
In the fourth, Betz was issued a walk, while Hish got a single and Ferrell got a single. Smith then got a single scoring Betz.
In the fifth, Wise walked and Huckleberry flew out to deep right field, followed by a Jackson walk.
Bailey was thrown out at first on a infield hit and Darren Betz Drove the ball deep to center field scoring Wise and Jackson for the walk off double.
Wise and Jackson for the walk off double.
Jackson finished 1-for-3 with two runs, while Bailey was also 1-for-3 with a run scored. Betz went 2-for-2 at the plate with a run and two RBIs. Hish had a 1-for-2 day with a run score, while Ferrell finished 1-for-2 with two runs. Smith went 2-for-2 with two RBIs and Wise was 1-for-1 with an RBI.

Students in IIE MENA Youth Leadership Programs participate in field visits to local NGOs and corporations. Discovery Program students visit the Fagnoon Art Center in Giza.
Discovery Program Field Visit
IIE MENA alumni serve as youth facilitators to design and deliver IIE youth leadership programs. IIE develops their capacity through special training and facilitation skills sessions.
Training of Youth Facilitators
Students in IIE Youth Leadership Programs participate in service learning projects in their schools, universities and local communities. Students work in teams to envision, plan, and implement community-based projects.
Since the establishment of the IIE MENA Region Office and Center for Leadership Excellence in Cairo in 2005, IIE's youth leadership programs in the region have engaged over 600 youth in universities and in middle and secondary schools from Algeria, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Oman, West Bank, and Yemen.
IIE youth leadership programs expose students to different leadership approaches; provide space for the students to explore their values, visions, diversity, and personality styles; and build critical skill sets such as team work, communication, creativity, networking, and project planning. Students experience leadership through interaction with community leaders and service learning opportunities
Learn more about our programs
Students are competitively selected for each program using a framework for selection and evaluation. The aim is to identify youth who possess a passionate sense of purpose that contributes to the development of their society, and who can demonstrate qualities that evidence leadership potential. IIE works with a network of educational institutions and community organizations in the region to assist the process.
Our main sponsors are the Ford Foundation (Discovery Program), Stuart Foundation (Discovery Program), and U.S. State Department (YELLA) who have provided generous grants to enable the design and launch of these youth programs. IIE works with numerous implementing partners including Creative Encounters, Keys to Effective Learning, and I*EARN. Local NGOs and corporations participate to provide guest speakers and host site visits.

By SYLVIA NELSONStaffEmery County Progress
The Emery County Museum Board is nearly half a century old, and now through their efforts there are two fine museums located in Castle Dale.
In June of 1989, the museum board reorganized. Dixon Peacock left the board after serving 18 years as the chairman. Jon Judd of Castle Dale was then appointed director. Owen McClenahan retired from the board, and Kent Petersen became chairman of the board. Sharon Earl, Lee Swasey, and Janet Petersen also came to the board at that time.
During this transition period, Emery County and Castle Dale City took advantage of applying for grants through the Community Impact Board funds. Plans were drawn up and decided upon and a substantial grant was awarded for the large building which sits on the corner of 64 North and 100 East in Castle Dale. Judd was involved with every step of the grant writing, the plans, and ultimately the construction. Judd saw the building through to completion with his skilled workmanship showing in every detail.
Upon completion of this new museum, Peacock was named as director of the museum. The board and many volunteers put together displays, moving much from the Pioneer Museum. A catalog system was put into place and fine tuned. Collections and items from more people and families were loaned for display. McClenahan donated his extensive rock collection that is a part of the tour, especially for the hundreds of children who enjoy and learn so much in the dark room with the ultraviolet light showing off the vibrant colors of various rocks and ores. This museum
has sections on paleontology, archaeology, Indian artifacts, and mountain and desert scenes.
After a museum closure in Nevada and through the help of the Utah Museum of Natural History in Salt Lake, many animals were offered to the Museum of the San Rafael for use in displays. The museum board initiated the help of local artists to paint backgrounds, gathered rocks, brush, dead logs, various native plants and tree limbs to make the settings for these large and small animals. Some leap out at the visitor, some hide in their burrows, or sleep on top of a log, each in its own natural environmental setting.
All this time the museum board kept the doors open by volunteering many hours themselves. Jan Petersen, now executive director, is also the business administrator, and has literally kept the museum running. Petersen, Peacock, and board member Dixie Swasey were instrumental in getting Green Thumb workers again so that the museum could be open with regular hours, do the maintenance, cleaning, and help with activities in the multipurpose room. Petersen has been the purchasing agent for the gift shop, the driving force behind most of the fund raisers, even cooking up barbecue dinners, designing and selling afghans that helped with restoration of the Pioneer Museum. Through Petersen's efforts the museum has received and shown two outstanding exhibits: the World War II posters entitled "Produce for Victory" from the Smithsonian, and the "Chinese Folk Art" from Exhibits USA. She has applied for and received many grants for the museum over the years, most recently two grants, one to help with the new mural and display in progress now, and the other will help with replacing the windows at the Pioneer Museum building.
Even before the plans for the building were complete, the idea was to have a large enough facility to house major exhibits, rent out for meetings and special events to support the museum. This room has been used for meetings by state and federal organizations regularly, as well as local organizations and county functions. Countless weddings, receptions, anniversary and birthday parties have been held there, not to mention three funerals.
"The people whose funerals were held here, were such a part of this museum that it was so appropriate to have the last farewells said here in the place that they loved and had worked so hard to help," stated Peacock.
A museum volunteer, Claire Browning, and her husband, Gene, (who, at first came along to be with her and then became a volunteer himself), had made so many friends while in the area through the museum, that their funerals were both held there. And the room was barely large enough when devoted and long-standing board member, Virginia Talbot's funeral services were held. Virginia and her husband, Gene, put in hundreds of hours and miles, donated their photos, rock and jewelry collections for exhibits, besides all the manual labor they helped with.
Bones of two large dinosaurs had to be put together to display in the large rotunda area; an oversized jigsaw puzzle with many bones missing. Jim Madsen and his class from the University of Utah came to help complete the puzzle, then Peacock and Talbot painted the two completed dinosaurs.
The displays are rotated throughout the year, with new items spotlighted that keep it interesting even to those who visit often.
Local artist, art teacher, and board member, Clifford Oviatt, is working on a mural that will cover the whole east side of the San Rafael exhibit room. This must be seen to fully appreciate its enormity. It will depict the San Rafael Swell starting at Window Blind Peak, traveling all through the Swell, with rock formations and twisted cedars Cliff's every brush stroke brings it all to life. New animals, large and small, will be procured as part of this magnificent new drama now in process.
Last year at this time, 43 Utah museums were represented at the Museum Day at the Legislature; 29 were given awards of excellence, including the Museum of the San Rafael. Many museum officials from throughout the state have visited the Museum of the San Rafael and have had nothing but praise for the quality of this small but fine museum.
In 1999, Governor Mike Leavitt asked Jan Petersen to join the Utah Office of Museums Services Advisory Board, where she has been able to make an impact for smaller and rural museums. She attends monthly meetings also as part of the Museum Action Team under the direction of Lt. Governor, Olene Walker. She has been able to learn and form relationships that have helped the Museum of the San Rafael in many areas.
At this time Green Thumb workers are Doris Lamb, Vanae Caldwell, Wilma Perkins, Earlene Jensen and Willard Young who work weekdays at both museums, greeting visitors, answering phones, cleaning and arranging, keeping displays new and interesting and doing anything they are asked to do. Several volunteers help during the year and especially during the fair and Castle Valley Pageant time. Betty Bunderson of Emery is a full time volunteer and very faithful. Bert Oman gives guided tours, and especially enjoys telling all the details of the Pioneer Museum.
Those serving on the board at this time are Jan Petersen, Dixon Peacock, Kent Petersen, Dixie Swasey, Dawnette Tuttle, Clifford Oviatt, Pete Jones, Gene Talbot, Randy Jensen, Mark H. Williams, and Bert Oman. A membership drive will be underway soon.
The new Cultural Olympiad exhibit, "Artists of the American West" will be shown Feb. 7 - March 9.

Last month at least two celebrities were caught expressing their love for science and technology. Both James Cameron and Kevin Costner got major publicity for their first-hand involvement in trying to solve the oil spill crisis in the Gulf of Mexico --Cameron for lending his expertise in deep sea transportation and photography; Costner for sponsoring a machine that's designed to separate oil and water. Although ultimately their contributions may not amount to much in terms of cleaning up the Gulf, it's unusual for celebrities to be actively engaged in the development and application of scientific solutions to an environmental disaster. In interviews, both Cameron and Costner have spent years getting acquainted with scientists and engineers and what they do for a living. They've expressed their appreciation and admiration for their work. Cameron and Costner's enthusiasm is unmistakable when they talk about the discovery and development of new technologies.
It's difficult to think of a celebrity who doesn't take an active role in drawing attention to, or raising money for, a good cause -- or two, or maybe many. There also seems to be a trend of Hollywood celebrities becoming more involved physically in helping out, not just lending a hand in raising money. Look at the celebrities who showed up in Haiti to help residents cope with the aftermath of the earthquake. Cameron and Costner seem to be on that path, taking an approach that happens to involve science and technology. Like other celebrities, they are drawing attention to a good cause.
Celebrities have helped raise billions to fight poverty, disease, and devastation caused by natural disasters, and to support public policy initiatives, including environmental protection. Their activism is probably most valuable in calling attention to the need for others to take action.Maybe science is in need of more celebrities to campaign for it?
Cameron and Costner were good cheerleaders last month. And, M*A*S*H star Alan Alda, who also played a presidential candidate on The West Wing and needed a kidney on 30 Rock (not to mention his hosting of PBS's Scientific American Frontiers for a dozen or so years), has certainly lent his celebrity to promoting science. Another example that's recent is actress Amanda Peet using her voice to call attention to medical research on the proven safety of vaccines. But not a lot of celebrities go around openly advocating the importance of science and encouraging the public to support it.
Celebrities have always been used to draw attention to worthy causes. Why not science? They could be particularly effective on the talk show circuit, promoting science as well as their latest projects. Maybe the science community needs to secure the services of more celebrity advocates? Is that what we need? And, if so, how do we go about getting those endorsements? Any thoughts or ideas?

We've replaced ingredients with great-tasting alternatives to create better-for-you recipes that are just as yummy as the originals.
Greek yogurt is known to be thicker (it's strained) with a creamier consistency than regular plain yogurt. But if it's not available in your area, regular plain yogurt can be used instead. While testing, we found thickness varied with different brands and it may be fun to conduct your own taste test and compare two or more brands.
You can substitute any kind of olive you like. Why not scout the olive bar at your grocery store and pick out a new variety?
For a different flavor twist, look for hummus with added ingredients, such as roasted garlic.

Reinforce it with denim (on the inside) and zig-zag stitch over it. Try and match the thread as closely to the denim color as you can. A medium grey might be the right color, assuming that they're worn in enough to need repairs. If the stitching is coming apart, that's easy to fix, just pull the denim to where its supposed to be and put some reinforced stitches down.

O: McKenna Hall
The MBA degree requires 72 credits – including pre-MBA courses, advanced courses, and electives. If you enter the program with a bachelor's degree in business, however, you may waive up to 27 credits of core courses, reducing the number of credits needed for graduation to 45.
Pre-MBA Courses: 9 courses / 27 credits
Advanced Courses: 10 courses / 30 credits
Elective Courses: 5 courses / 15 credits
Pre-MBA courses generally precede and are sometimes prerequisites to other courses. These courses, totaling 27 credit hours, cover what is generally referred to as the "basics" relating to business education. Students may have satisfied these pre-MBA requirements through prior coursework.
The 10 advanced and five elective courses total 45 credit hours and may not be satisfied by undergraduate coursework. Transfer credit from other institutions will be given only for graduate level courses from AACSB accredited schools covering the same body of knowledge. Students may transfer a maximum of three courses (9 credits) from other graduate programs. Acceptance of transfer credit is determined by the associate dean for graduate programs. Elective course offerings will vary each year based on student interest and relevance of subject matter to the business community. Consult the Program Coordinator to select a customized and appropriate sequence of courses.
View a summary of the MBA program curriculum.
As an MBA student, you may select one of six areas of emphasis:
Through a program offered by the School of Business, Government, and Economics and the Seattle Pacific Seminary, you can earn two advanced degrees in the time it would take you to earn the same two degrees separately.
You may apply to the MBA program in any quarter. (View a list of application deadlines per quarter.) Evening and select weekend courses are designed to accommodate working professionals. Courses generally meet one evening per week for 10 to 11 weeks.
Time to complete the degree depends on previous business coursework taken (for undergraduate business majors) and number of classes taken per quarter (including summers). Typically you will take one or two classes per quarter. On average, students complete the MBA in two to three years.
Curricular Practical Training
Students attending the MBA or M.S.-ISM program on an F-1 Visa are strongly encouraged to include BUS 6969 Practice of Business as one of their five electives. Completing a project in cooperation with an enterprise under the sponsorship of a faculty member is similar to doing an internship. Students have an opportunity to apply the knowledge gained from a significant amount of their prior coursework to a meaningful project for a business. This constitutes a very valuable opportunity for international students to become more familiar with U.S. business practices and meets the criteria for Curricular Practical Training.
The newest area of emphasis available to MBA students is Social and Sustainable Business, which includes courses on work, stewardship and sustainability, poverty, and spirituality in management — directly connecting theology with business and the use of business to enhance human flourishing. If this is your choice, you will integrate a study abroad experience into your coursework.
"I wanted smaller classes with teachers who were passionate about what they were teaching. I also wanted to be part of a community, and make not only contacts but also friends. SPU delivered on all counts. The MBA program did a great job of teaching what it means to be a manager, and what it means to be a leader. It also goes without saying that SPU has done an exemplary job of teaching ethics."

I got this idea, and it's making me wandering. It's not complete, but here it is:
Madara prepares himself for battle with Hashirama. He gets Kyuubi, and he prepares a safety:
He tells Tobirama that he would help him become the Hokage if he resurects him in the case he dies.
He fights Hashirama and dies. Uses izanagi twice, and leaves no usable eyes behind.
Tobirama realizes that his brother is too powerfull, and that his genetics will grant him a long life. The only way for him to get his share of fame is to do what Madara proposed. He uses Edo Tensei and resurects him.
(Remember, Kabuto said: You were completed beyond your prime. Madara: You... know about my prime).
Part of the deal was for Madara to get Hashirama DNA, as his goal is to get rinnegan in order to resurect his brother. He should also stay hidden and stay away from Tobirama and Konoha, or else, Tobirama would release Edo Tensei.
Tobirama lures his brother to a remote location and, together with Edo Madara performs a stealth kill. Blames some other village, which starts the 1st great war.
Madara stays away from Tobirama, but in order to free himself from the possibility of Edo Tensei release, he hires merceneries - Kinkaku and Ginkaku. They fail the first time, but the second time they come with a larger force. Feeling guilt, and that he is no worthy of being a hokage, Tobirama sacrifices himself and chooses the most honest one - Sarutobi to be the hokage.
Madara awakens rinnegan and resurects Izuna. However, something goes wrong, and his spirit leaves the earth. They meet in the purgatory (where Kakashi met his father). Madara instructs Izuna that a boy Nagato could be host for the rinnegan and resurect him, since the process requires that the performer die. Izuna tells him about the Moon eye plan, which would free the world from war.
Izuna gets resurected, but with some bed eyes. Madara sticks in the purgatory, since his brother did not forgave him.
Izuna gives Nagato the rinnegan eyes, but gets a second thought about resurecting Madara. Maybe he should implant the rinnegan into himself and perform the MoonEyePlan without his power seeking brother. He starts experimenting with Hashirama DNA, but overdoes it, starting to loose ability to maintain his sharingan. He needs a new Uchiha body. He finds dying Obito...
In the purgetory, Madara meets with Obito's spirit, who tells him about what happened.
Now, for the 601:
Tobi was not happy hearing about Madara resurection. Madara called him Obito ironicly, and implying that he knows about his change of heart. The two of them will argue about what to do and finaly get into a fight.

NYC Bound
"I was looking for some new sneakers to wear for a weekend trip to NYC. I have bad arches so its pretty difficult for me to find shoes that are comfy. I was about to give up hope when I found these New Balances. They were awesome! I wore them the whole weekend and didnt have any calf or knee pain. I def recommend these to anyone who has a hard time finding good walking shoes."

Very nice running shoe!
"I had to replace my old pair of New Balance shoes because they were started to wear on the bottoms. Otherwise, no holes or any other problems. I love New Balance because they generally hold up really well. I speed walk/run/jog in my neighborhood and at the gym. I have a wider than normal foot. And, I usually wear a size 8.5 but I had to buy a size 9.5 ( a whole size larger). This doesn't bother me, because I want to make sure I have plenty of room in the toe box when I go running. The larger size doesn't make me look like Ronald McDonald either, which is something that would bother me if they did. These particular shoes are very lightweight (much lighter than my last sneakers). The colors (pink and grey) are also pretty cute. I've gotten complements on them. I don't necessarily focus on color when buying running shoes, but cuteness is an added bonus. Overall, they are very comfortable, they are very cute, they don't look humongous on me with the larger size, and I would recommend them."
