Dr.Sang-Mo Kang is an Associate Professor of Surgery and transplant surgeon. He joined the UCSF School of Medicine faculty in 2001 and in 2005 was named Surgical Director of Intestinal Rehabilitation and Transplantation at UCSF Medical Center. Dr. Kang takes care of both adult and pediatric patients and performs kidney, liver, pancreas and intestinal transplants as well as surgery for numerous hepatobiliary and gastrointestinal diseases.
Dr. Kang received his B.S. in chemistry from Cornell University and his M.D. from Harvard University Medical School. He completed a general surgery residency, and immunology and clinical transplantation fellowships at University of California, San Francisco. Dr Kang was recognized with two Howard Hughes Medical Institute Fellowships, one during medical school and one during his residency.
Dr. Kang's current research focus is in the development of novel strategies for the induction of transplant-specific tolerance. Dr. Kang has published numerous articles in medical and scientific journals and been invited to present at national and international seminars and conferences.
Dr. Kang is a member of numerous medical societies including American Society of Transplant Surgeons, American College of Surgeons, American Association of Immunologists, National Kidney Foundation, Association for Academic Surgery, and Society of University Surgeons.
The Kang Lab is developing novel strategies for the induction of transplant-specific tolerance. The research focuses on achieving what is known as "allo-specific transplant tolerance", a specialized method of preventing the rejection of a transplanted organ without suppressing the entire immune system.
Currently, transplant recipients must receive immunosuppressive drugs to suppress their own white blood cells (T cells) that attack foreign cells and cause organ rejections. Unfortunately, these non-specific drugs affect the entire immune system and thus carry significant risks for infection and certain malignancies. The goal is to eliminate the need for global immunosuppression in transplant recipients. Ideal immunotherapy would be one that targets only the donor-specific immune cells that cause rejection, without affecting any of the other immune cells, thus leaving the immune system intact and able to function at full capacity.
To this end, the lab is conducting several experiments to gain insight into the mechanisms of rejection. These projects include the use of specialized immune cells in targeting specific lymphoid organs, as well as investigations into the contributions of CD+4 T cells and CD8 T cells to the process of transplant rejection. The laboratory's work is helping to define important parameters for potential treatments in humans.

SUV driver sought in fatal S.F. hit-and-run
A woman in her 60s who was using a crosswalk in San Francisco's Visitacion Valley neighborhood was struck and killed Thursday by an SUV driver who circled back to look at the fallen victim before speeding away, police said.
The hit-and-run at 11:15 a.m. at the intersection of Visitacion Avenue and Bayshore Boulevard marked the city's sixth pedestrian fatality of the year and 12th since December, a run of bloodshed that has put a spotlight on a longtime problem and prompted calls for more aggressive action.
According to police officials, Thursday's collision happened after the woman, who was not immediately identified, walked east on Visitacion Avenue and attempted to cross six-lane Bayshore Boulevard, which has a center median.
The intersection is signalized, and the woman was said to be in the crosswalk with the right of way.
Also moving east on Visitacion Avenue was a white Dodge Durango with a black ski rack on its roof. At Bayshore Boulevard, police said, the driver appears to have turned left on a solid green light, failing to yield to the pedestrian and striking her in the northbound lanes.
The driver continued north for one block to Leland Avenue, police said, before doing a U-turn, driving back slowly to observe the result of the collision, and speeding away south. Paramedics who responded to the scene pronounced the woman dead, and the driver remained at large.
Bayshore Boulevard, a busy thoroughfare, often sees reckless driving and speeding, in part because it feeds into Highway 101 to the north, said Gary Binauhan and Philippe Gonzalez, who work at a nearby auto repair shop. They said police used to post up along the road to catch speeders, but haven't recently.
"Sometimes when we park our cars on the street, we're afraid to open our doors because they're just speeding down," Binauhan said.
"They exit from the freeway and think they're still on it," Gonzalez said.
He added that he wished the penalties were higher for careless drivers. "They don't pay enough for the crime," he said.
The uptick in pedestrian deaths in the city spurred supervisors and safe-walking advocates to call on city agencies to develop a strategy to eliminate fatal vehicle collisions within 10 years.
Earlier this month, Mayor Ed Lee gave his support to Walk First, a program investing $17 million to make 170 problem intersections safer for pedestrians. The funding would jump to $50 million, and cover 265 intersections, if voters approve a package of transportation taxes and fees scheduled for the November ballot.
The majority of San Francisco's problem intersections are located in the Tenderloin and South of Market neighborhoods, areas that see a lot of foot and car traffic. Bayshore Boulevard, which sees a relatively small amount of foot traffic, has not been identified as a problem roadway.
By Thursday evening, the driver in the fatal crash had not been arrested. Gonzalez expressed dismay that the man didn't stop after realizing what he had done.
"I was out front all morning and I didn't hear any screeching brakes or anything," he said. "It was quiet. The guy, I don't think he even stepped on the brakes."

Replaced the Majesty Palm with an Adonidia Palm.
I chose the one with the most stems, 4 two of which have matured.
Still there. I guess its growing but its not obvious.
Its hanging in there.
Plodding along.
Plodding along.
Looks to be settling in OK. Its largest stem is already giving way to reveal a new ring plus theres another one in the pipeline. The canopy is really looking rich so im quite happy with this item after only 2 months.
Hopefully this will grow. Hopefully with the more mature stem it will do better through the winter. I always thought this was a good spot because it gets great sun but the base is shaded by the fence. I actually think its a better plant than the Majesty Palm that was there.

James (Ford Escort)
I'd like to add my thanks to all involved in the event. I was nervous about taking my car on the track but enjoyed every moment! It was not scarey at all mainly thanks to the impeccable track etiquette observed by everyone.
Please extend my thanks on to the Lotus (& VX) owners too - although they were mainly racing each other (a fair bit quicker than most of the '5s) they still observed the correct overtaking rules.
I enjoyed passing the VX220 (I'm guessing he wasn't pushing it too hard) and sticking like glue to the tail of the yellow Elise! Also great to see the old Lotus Elan on the track - just shows how good these cars were in their time that they are still competitive now, even though it did start to have problems with traction once the track got wet.
So once again, thanks to everyone for organising the event and making me feel so welcome. I look forward to doing it all again next year

Be Prepared for National College Decision Day
Every spring, high school seniors around the country begin to hold their breath opening the mail. It's the time of year when colleges start selecting students for the upcoming school year, meaning every letter could come with the joy of acceptance or the sting of rejection. May 1 is National College Decision Day, the date for high school seniors to make final college decisions.
College currently costs anywhere from $28,000 per year for a public college to $59,000 per year for a private college. If your kids are younger, college will be even more expensive by the time they're ready for school. Luckily, you've got some time to save. Here are some college funding options.
Saving for Kids
One of the best moves you can make is to turn your kid into a saver early on. Start a savings account when they're born. Deposit any money your kids receive for birthdays and holidays while they're young to start building up the account. Next, encourage them to start saving themselves to reinforce good financial planning while they're young. If you can spare it, offer to match partially any money they save to motivate them even more.
Are You Financial Savvy? Take Our Quiz to Find out!
Many banks will provide a free piggy bank when you open a child's account, so you can get them in the habit of saving at home as well. When you have extra change in your pocket, add it to the piggy bank. You'll be surprised how quickly it adds up. When the pig starts to get full, deposit into their savings account.
Start a College Savings Plan
Every state offers 529 plans, tax-advantaged savings plans that lets you set aside money for college. As long as you use the money for education expenses (tuition, books, room and board), it grows tax-free. It's like a Roth IRA, but for college, rather than retirement. The sooner you start saving, the more time the money has to grow.
If you have a modified adjusted gross income of less than $110,000 ($220,000 on joint returns), a Coverdell Education Savings Account might be right for you. It's similar to a 529, but it can also be used for some education expenses from kindergarten through high school.
The Uniform Transfer to Minors ACT (UTMA) allows adults to contribute funds to a UTMA account for people under 21. The money can be used for educational purposes, but it's not required.
Use Savings Bonds and CDs
Savings bonds are one of the safest investments, though when interest rates are low (as they are currently), the earning potential can be limited. The big advantages are that the money isn't as easily accessible as a savings account, and savings bonds earn interest for 30 years. So you can have bonds that mature later for further education expenses like graduate school. Savings bonds don't have to be used for education, so if your child doesn't go to college, they can be used for something else.
A certificate of deposit (CD) invests your money for a set period of time with a fixed interest rate. CDs generally have a better interest rate than a standard savings account, since you're investing the money for a one to three-year period. However, when interest rates are low, the returns aren't as good. There are also penalties to your earnings if you need to access the money before the CD reaches maturity. Like savings bonds, there's no requirement that CDs be used for education purposes.
Encourage Them to Earn Money
Once your child is a teenager, it's common for them to get a part-time job. This is a good time to stress the importance of saving up what they earn. With just a few years left before college, it could serve as good motivation to save. Summer jobs are also one of the best ways to save for college.
Check Out These 4 Apps That Will Make You a Pro at Saving Money
Keep in mind, working to save for college can start even earlier. Encourage them to save up money from doing chores. Seasonal jobs like mowing lawns, raking leaves and shoveling driveways can present extra earning opportunities. Let them use some of the money for fun activities, but the overall goal should remain saving for their own education. It will help develop a sense of responsibility that will hopefully pay off with a lifetime of financial responsibility.
Focus on Scholarships
Many parents dream of full-ride academic or athletic scholarships, but they're difficult to count on. Luckily, there are numerous scholarship opportunities available (including some unusual ones). There are websites that make it easy to search for scholarships available by major, college and other categories.
You should also check with your employer, they may have opportunities for children of employees, and there may be other options available in your community. You may not find something that covers all your child's expenses, but chipping away at the larger cost is one of the best ways to save money for college.
Go for a Grant
Federal Pell Grants are money that you never have to repay, so if your child qualifies it's a handy way to shrink their college bill. Pell Grants are awarded based on need, up to $5,815 per year. Every student should fill out a FAFSA (Free Application for Financial Student Aid) to find out what other financial aid they might qualify for.
It's never too early to start saving for your child's education. You have 18 years to build up a cushion to get them through some of the most important (and expensive) years of their life. Get ready for National College Decision Day by learning more about the best ways to save for college on our College Funding page. We have a variety of options that can put you at ease and make you feel more secure about your child's future.

Yeah. Not just motherboards. All components. Things that work really well in an office context, that an IT person wouldn't give a second thought to deploying do not work well, if at all, in an HPC environment. We have seen this again and again, usually in the contexts (curiously enough) of storage design, networking, as well as computing system design. > I have seen HPC sites that can make a Dell 1950 stumble with little > difficulty.

NEWARK, NJ — The New Jersey Attorney General's Office and the Division of Consumer Affairs filed lawsuits against 20 health clubs on Aug. 4, alleging that consumers paid for services that they did not receive and that the club operators failed to notify customers of their rights to refunds and other recourse as legally required.
The 20 health clubs are under the names Dolphin Fitness, Olympus Gym, Gold's Gym, Valley Family Fitness and Executive Fitness and are alleged to have committed multiple violations of New Jersey's Consumer Fraud Act, Health Club Services Regulations and Advertising Regulations.
"We don't think this is an industry wide problem," said Jeff Lamm, spokesperson for the New Jersey Attorney General's Office and the Division of Consumer Affairs. "These specific health clubs were in violation, but we also want folks to be aware that we're out there monitoring the health club industry in New Jersey."
The state filed six separate lawsuits in State Superior Court in Bergen, Burlington, Essex, Monmouth and Sussex counties in New Jersey that allege several violations including: failure to register some locations with Consumer Affairs and pay the $300 bi-annual registration fee; failure to maintain bond, letter of credit or other security for each location; failure to meet requirements for contracts by failing to include statements about a consumer's right to cancellation of the contract or a refund under certain conditions; charging a down payment exceeding 25 percent of the contract price prior to the opening of the facility; failure to provide refunds to consumers when facilities closed or failed to open; misrepresenting that a facility is registered with Consumer Affairs; and misrepresenting to consumers the number of facilities to which consumers would have access.
New Jersey Attorney General Peter C. Harvey noted in a release about the health club lawsuits that the requirement to post a bond or a letter of credit protects consumers in the event a location closes and refunds are owed.
The lawsuits were brought at the same time because many of the consumer complaints were similar in nature, Lamm said. As of press time, the department was still hearing from consumers and no court date was scheduled. One club had more than 100 complaints so far, Lamm said. The Consumer Fraud Act allows fines up to $10,000 for a first offense and $20,000 for additional offenses.
"Our number one goal is restitution," Lamm said. "We want people who are owed money from their membership to get restitution. We are also looking for compliance. We don't expect for the clubs that closed to reopen, but for the ones in operation we want a commitment to consumers to be honored."
Several of the still operating health clubs listed in the lawsuits did not respond to calls for comments as of press time.
NJ Clubs Sued
The Dolphin clubs located in Sayreville and Jersey City; both are also known as Synergy Fitness. Four more locations were named in the suit — South Brunswick, Rahway, Elmwood Park and Lyndhurst. Those clubs closed in 2004 and 2005.
A Dolphin Fitness Club in Freehold, which closed in October 2004, is named in a separate lawsuit.
The Olympus clubs in Bloomfield, Butler, Clifton, Fairfield, Franklin, Hackensack, Jefferson, Newton and Randolph. All but the Bloomfield, Clifton and Hackensack clubs filed for Chapter 11. The Bloomfield club closed in June 2004.
The Gold's located in Somers Point before it closed in late 2001. Another Gold's was supposed to open in Mount Laurel in mid-2001, but didn't open. Customers awaiting the opening of the Mount Laurel health club had use of a temporary facility that closed in September 2002.
The Valley Family Fitness Center that was located in Old Tappan and closed in January 2005.
The Executive Fitness Club that was located in Green Brook and closed in May 2005.

Checking In On… the Summit LeaguePosted by jstevrtc on December 4th, 2009
Eli Linton is the RTC correspondent for the Summit League.
Current Standings (Overall Record/League Record):
- Centenary (4-2/1-0)
- Oral Roberts (4-4/1-0)
- North Dakota State (3-3/1-0)
- Oakland (3-4/0-0)
- Western Illinois (3-4/0-1)
- Southern Utah (3-5/0-1)
- South Dakota State (2-5/0-1)
Top Storylines:
- Whatever could go wrong has gone wrong for Oral Roberts University to start this season. After getting an emotional win against Stanford, everything came crashing down to earth when they discovered that their junior point guard Rod Pearson became the third player THIS YEAR to suffer a season-ending ACL tear. To make matters worse, the third string point guard, sophomore Beloved Rodgers, quit the team last week as well. Apparently he was not happy with the minutes he was seeing. So Scott Sutton was forced to activate his fourth-string emergency guard, redshirt freshman Mikey Mangum. Who knew the most valuable player of the Golden Eagles season would not be a player at all, but the personal trainer? Here is a suggestion: stretch before games.
- Oakland continues to roll, with Keith Benson earning player of the week honors, averaging 20/11/5 blocks in three games last week. Also, Oakland guard Jonathan Jones became the conference's all-time assist leader when he dished out 11 in a win over Central Arkansas on November 28; he now has 639 for his career. The previous record holder was Valparaiso legend Bryce Drew (626).
- The non-conference schedule is wrapping up for most of the Summit League, with only IUPUI, Centenary, and UMKC coming out on top with winning records. Oral Roberts and Oakland remain neck and neck according to their records, but in reality, Oral Roberts has fallen back even further with the loss of four key players. It's never good when your second-string shooting guard, Kyron Stokes, now becomes your first-string point guard. The Summit is still the 20th or 21st best conference in the country, so the one coveted bid will hinge on the conference play. Anything can happen at this point, and this week will be a good indicator as to who are the true contenders.

Shaping the Future of Facebook as a Game Platform
October 4, 2012 Page 1 of 4
Once apps launched, Facebook grew into a game platform -- a huge one. This was a surprise of its founders. Since that time, the company has worked to embrace the medium, and has recruited for its games initiative, including Sean Ryan, its director of games partnerships, who helps bring developers in to the platform and works to find out what they need from Facebook.
But there is another important part of the Facebook equation: who is it that makes decisions about how the platform will be developed? Who has game developers' interests at heart? Or, to put it another way, who can game developers blame when things go wrong?
That man is Matt Wyndowe. As Facebook's product manager for apps and games, Wyndowe is a key part of how the platform changes itself to appeal more to game developers -- and in this interview, he talks about how the company approaches that task.
He also discusses the company's attitude toward the shift away from desktop and toward mobile use of Facebook, how it hopes to attract new developers, how his team balances the needs of app and game developers, and why they recruit from the game industry.
You work internally on the platform itself. You have to cater to different constituencies in terms of developers of games and non-games; how do you balance that?
Matt Wyndowe: Actually, one of the reasons we created a dedicated games team at Facebook was that we realized that the needs of game developers can differ from the regular developer community. A lot of the initiatives we work on on the games team overlap with the initiatives of the general app ecosystem; we just tend to prioritize things differently.
A good example is the App Center. The games team was the one who first came up with the idea and championed the App Center. Part of the reason was because we saw all of these great, high-quality games that maybe weren't using all the viral channels, and weren't getting as much distribution as they should, and we saw that as an opportunity to highlight the highest-quality games.
Do you have a particular schedule? How do you determine when you're going to start making changes to the platform, or is it a continuous process of evolution?
MW: As a lot of us are former developers ourselves -- virtually all of us are -- we're very sensitive to changes in the ecosystem that are going to affect developers. That said, we also know that you have to change and develop the ecosystem and the platform to make it better for users and developers. It's a trade-off that we are always trying to make on a case-by-case basis.
I would say that we do changes regularly on the ecosystem, but we recently established this new 90-day breaking change policy just to make sure that we're not busting anyone's great game or something like that. Those are a couple of things that we've brought onto the platform as we've matured a little bit that we just didn't have in the early days.
That policy; is that ultimately that you give people 90 days of notice on what's going to be changing and how it's going to affect them?
MW: If it's a breaking change. If it's something additive to the system, we don't wait 90 days to launch it, because it's actually not good for anyone; but, if it's something that's potentially going to break something, then we give a 90-day change. We've had that for a year now. That's been received well.
Since things evolve very quickly and people can want something very passionately, how do you determine this is a change that's actually going to be good in the long run versus something that's getting a lot of noise that might not actually be worth addressing because who knows how it's going to shake out?
MW: (Laughs) My job would be a lot easier if there were a generalized rule for that. I think we're getting reasonably good pattern recognition having been a platform now for five years. We try to prioritize correctly.
I will say that we don't tend to focus on very one-off, gimmicky kinds of things. The things that we build out tend to be core, long-term infrastructure things, like the Open Graph, where we just come up with a new way to put data into the system and read data out that we think is going to be impactful.
Because we focus a lot on the API, we don't have a ton of user-interfacing elements of the platform. I think we're privileged in a way to get to work with more pieces of core infrastructure to help empower developers.
Do you find that the needs of developers evolve more quickly than you can make changes to the platform? Are you hearing a lot from developers, "We want this, we want this, we want this"?
MW: No, I would say we think about it a little differently. We've made a lot of good strides. Developers are primarily looking to us as a way to distribute and grow their games to 900 million-plus users. That's a way a lot of developers find us initially appealing, and then they learn that, if they actually build the social dynamics in, they can build games with a lot higher engagement and monetization, etc. So a lot of the things that we're doing are basically trying to improve one of those three things, and there are so many things that we can do to help those value propositions. Those fundamental value propositions have not changed.
There's a lot of different ways those can manifest and a lot of different features that we can do, but, essentially, if we just build a good platform that delivers on those, that usually takes care of 80 percent of cases. Because a lot of people have gaming experience and, frankly, because there's so much left we have to do, we've only just scratched the surface of what gaming with Facebook can be like; so every time we free up resources we're like, "Okay, what's next on that list to do?" It hasn't changed that dramatically over the years. Developers tend to want the same kinds of things.

Aside from my own near-sightedness, astigmatisms and presbyopia, three family members have lost an eye – for a variety of unrelated reasons. Two of them wear prosthetic eyes. Yet everywhere I look, it is a two-eyed world. When was the last time you saw someone on television take out his prosthetic eye? My family started a campaign; you may have seen some of our bumper stickers: "Monoculars Unite!" "Blind is Good!" "End Binocular-Normativity!"
Textbooks should show more people with no eyes or one eye – why do they all assume people have two eyes? Kids with glasses get teased and called "four eyes." Our national anthem is an insult – no, I can't "see by the dawn's early light" – until I fumble around and find my glasses. I spent a month protesting 20/20-vision-normativity by not wearing my glasses. After a couple car accidents, my wife made me put them on again. People with good vision don't have to spend thousands of dollars over their lifetime for glasses, contacts, prosthetic eyes, LASIK, cataract surgery, seeing-eye dogs or learning braille. It's just not fair.

As another poster, I would go furthur and say the divorced woman or single, promiscuous woman should get nothing. Her life as a single mother should be hard. So hard, that other people see her as an object lesson for why children without a father is foolish and very undesirable. Every time we subsidize a single parent, we show other people that single parent-hood isn't all that bad, what with all the help you will get. Yes, the reality may be that even with government assistance, it is difficult. But other people have their perception of reality, not reality itself.
I think it is better to do what will prevent 10 new children being created for life in a deficient home than help the 1 child already there. I agree that is hard, but I do not have limitless resources.
Widows and orphans are a different case; in those cases there was a father, and he was removed by death, not selfishness.
"Simple fact is never trust a woman. … It's a simple strategy that every man should adopt."
Very distrustful view… and I regret to say it, but one that seems partly true, at least financially. It is interesting to me that when God set up the economic system in Israel (about 1500 B.C.), women were not permitted to inherit the family land/farm, except in the case where there were 0 sons. ALL property of the father went to his sons. If he has 1 son and 10 daughters, the 1 son gets everything. And no, the farm was not divided if his marriage ended. Farm goes to sons, ex-wife gets… well, as far as I can tell, zilch. Which brings the point that, in order to continue to receive the benefits of marriage (home, food, clothing), the female had to remain a wife. Thus, a man did not have to trust his wife to not divorce him — she had the financial, daily motivation to remain with him.
But don't expect agreement if you ask a church woman today to agree to a pre-nup, even when it is stated that this is to strengthen the marriage bond and conform to the Bible she claims to follow.

Daly: Tony, as we look at the mandate in the Bible to vote there is so much there and the Founding Fathers again were brilliant in understanding God's design for things and the Scripture is pretty clear and really the Founding Fathers in creating a Republic based it on their biblical understanding of God's ordination of government, didn't they?
Evans: Absolutely, they went right to Exodus 18, how Israel was organized as a representative government, and used that as a pattern for the government of the United States. The principles and the freedom which dominates the uniqueness of the United States is drawn right from Scripture, in fact freedom started with God in the Garden, 'from every tree of the Garden you may freely eat,' there was broad freedom, limited regulations and dire consequences, that's how government is supposed to work, so whenever government gets too big it gets unbiblical.

We decided to adopt carrot and doughnuts for our symbol- for our sex symbols around here, maybe a visual reminder to all of us. You know, people say "where do you stand on homosexuality?" It's just, here's my stance on it:
God never, never created us men to sword-fight and didn't, didn't create, didn't create women for pastry parties either and so um, and uh-
Don't act holy in this place you, you'll be, you'll be on the outside looking in, and uh, so yeah. Just re- just remember because you're teenagers; you're not sure which way's up right now. Dudes don't sword-fight, alright? Just remember that, you'll be fine! There's a perfect doughnut waiting for you out there one of these days- with sprinkles...

Women are physically incapable of doing any type of job that requires a man's strength which means I disagree with this decision [to have women in combat]. The first duty of a woman is to be a homemaker but I don't mind if they work a job they are capable of doing. (Although once you have kids, you gotta stop working then raise the kids until they're about 14 or 15, I guess. Maybe a little younger)

I think this is the time!! The ME is inflamed and tensions are at an all time high. Iran's trek towards a nuke proceeds undaunted. I read an article today that said Hockeduponmydinnerjacket's term as president ends in 2013. He truly believes that he is divinely appointed to help bring forth the 12th Imam and appears to take that extremely seriously. Add to that the rumor of war between the two Korea's, China and Japan, tons of military hardware in the Persian gulf, and the "generation" that saw the rebirth of Israel well in their seventies. The world is clamoring for a world leader, the global economy appears to be practically on the verge of coming to fruition, likely brought about by a worldwide economic collapse. People all over the world are clamoring for a one world government and Israel stands alone. WOW!!! And that doesn't include the many earthquakes and other signs in nature we were told to look for. We all gave a sense that we're going home and things of this world become dimmer by the day. Most around the world appear to going about life business as usual as apostasy in churches escalates and deception grows exponentially. Off the charts violence, increasing interest in secular humanism, rampant homosexuality, and a complete turning upside down of right versus wrong. The world is ripe to be turned over to the AC after the rapture. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is being preached throughout the world like never before and technology is set for the MOTB. It's here and we're going home very soon!!!! Maranatha!!! Come Lord Jesus!!!!!

Is there really such a thing as an utterly authentic atheist? I think so. I have a dreadful feeling that there exists a sort of human sub-species who have lost their spiritual capacity completely. These authentic atheists do not profess belief in God, nor even disbelief. Instead they seem entirely deaf to such ideas. They do not hate the Church or say the Bible is a fairy tale. They do not spit out bigoted remarks that blame the Pope for the holocaust or missionaries for murder. They do not attack the arguments for the existence of God, say the universe is random, or call Rick Warren a simpleton. They do not rage against God, any more than someone born blind has dreams in color. These are the authentic atheists. They plod through life eating, working, shopping, breeding and sleeping, and God never seems to flit across their consciousness. Members of this sub-species may be sparkling sophisticates or ill-bred boors. They may be the decent and moral folks next door, or they could be despicable murderers. In a frightful way, it doesn't matter. If they exist, perhaps they have bred and spread like the alien bodysnatchers, and exist in our midst like spiritual zombies—indistinguishable in the teeming mass of humanity except to those few who see them and tremble.

Appealing to authority is only fallacious when that to which one appeals has no legitimate authority. Everyone--include Bill Nye--everyone appeals to authority. Nye, and atheists like him, appeals to creation and his own fallible mind. I appeal to the Creator and His infallible Word.
And the fight is over before it begins.
With the above in mind, I will not offer up any pieces of evidence to refute Nye's claims against God and creationism. Everyone looks at the same evidence. The issue is not one of evidence, but rather one of worldview. The atheistic evolutionist interprets the evidence for the glory of self and to perpetrate a sinful denial of God. The Christian interprets the evidence for the glory of God. It's that simple.
Oh, I will slap him around a bit for some of the social truth claims he makes based entirely on conjecture. But I won't argue with him regarding the existence of God the Creator. To do so, to present evidences for the existence of God is, on some level, to assert that God needs to be proven. It is to give legitimacy to the blasphemous notion that God can be put on trial--that convicted criminals (sinners) have the right to cross examine the Judge.
I believe to entertain and engage unbelievers on this level not only fuels and encourages the unbelievers' sinfulness, but it is also a blasphemous exchange on the part of God's proponent. That's right. To allow an unbeliever to put God on trial by participating in such a kangaroo court, even as a well-intentioned and loving defense attorney, is to participate in the unbeliever's blasphemy. And by aiding and abetting such blasphemy, the Christian takes part in the blasphemy and is, therefore, guilty of the same.
In God's Courtroom there is no right against self-incrimination. There is no protection of presumed innocence. There is no right to present an affirmative defense. There is no legal right to object to the Judge's findings and rulings. There can be no motion to have the Judge recuse Himself from the case. In fact, in God's Courtroom there are no trials. There are only days of sentencing.

I disagree with you.
We must love God, but we must also fear (respect) Him.
Women might love their husbands, but they have no fear of (respect for) them. The law neuters mens' ability to maintain order in their own households. Preferably a man keeps order by inspiring love and obedience; if this does not work, I see no reason why he should not be able to use coercion just to the point of regaining control of the situation and his wife's respect.

"Having kids at those times would have destroyed my life."
Heh… Very few professions destroy a woman's attractiveness to men more than becoming a lawyer.
Seriously. By choosing to become a lawyer, a woman is effectively reducing her husband prospects by 80% or more…
1) Men have good reason to be afraid of marrying (or even dating) a female lawyer.
2) Being a lawyer engenders women with personality traits that men find repulsive (even though a male lawyer clearly does become attractive to women).
3) Being a lawyer uses up a woman's 20s, so her peak years are gone before she knows it.

n a responsum to a reader published on Sunday in the ultra-Orthodox daily newspaper Yated Ne'eman, Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky said that "it is forbidden to be in possession of [an iPhone], and one must burn it"; this despite the fact that the reader, a business-owner, said it was "crucial for [his] dealings."
And lest a contrite Jewish smartphone owner think to hawk his device on eBay and pocket the cash, Kanievsky also warned that it is forbidden to sell the phone to a non-Jew, "just as it is forbidden to sell a weapon to a non-Jew."

I am so disgusted with Barry Soteoro, beyond mere words. He's a phantom that has a very dark kingdom's power working in and through him...no doubt in my spirit about that fact. But this is the hard pill to swallow...my once beloved country must be sooooo very evil and fallen that we inherited this wicked leader to take this land into the most wretched time ever. Because no one will debate that our God is Omnipotent and nothing...I repeat nothing happens without His Permission. And leaders are only in positions of power because our God allows it. So, let's see...we have a man who's real name is Barry Soteoro but decided to go by an openly Islamic sounding name "Barack Hussein Obama" and has the crust to not allow his background to be viewed after all the outcry to see who he really is. Wow...just think about that!!! We went through the horrors of 9/11 and now have a President who sympathizes with Islam over any other religion. So, do we deserve this imposter? Or are we an innocent nation that is a victim of circumstances? Instead of bellyaching about this demonically inspired man...why not really get serious about the real weapons of our warfare??? The devil and his demons hate when the Saints get to praying...real praying. The devil knows that prayer is the only effective weapon we can use against him...but we're neutralized and caught up in the physical world. Get mad enough to pray without ceasing! Where are the real men of God, that can call the people to corporate prayer. We're such a toothless church against the devil's schemes. It's sad.

As for the other question. What will happen to the children during the tribulation? Don't let the bible scholars or any other modern day Pharisee deceive you. Children do not come with an "auto-save feature". There is no age of accountability. If this were so then Christian parents would do well by sacrificing their children before they reach that age, thereby securing their eternal salvation. Not a bad little gift for juniors last birthday. The reality is that God doesn't work that way. When you die your spirit goes back to the Lord, regardless of what age you are. There is nowhere else to go. It's one side of the gulf or the other, no middle ground. The spirit of a child does not return to the Lord in child form but in the exact same way it left God's presence when you were conceived. God knew what you were like before you were even born. God can love or hate a child even before it comes out of the womb. He does not love every child. What happened to the children of Sodom and Gomorrah? Did He take them out with Lot before He poured fire down on them? What happened to the children of Noah's day? Did He squeeze them in kiddie land section of the ark? When He told the Isrealites to conquer a city and spare no one did He say except the children? The same fate awaits the children of the tribulation hour. Imagine a Heaven where millions or billions of children's spirits are present that hate God and His ways. What kind of Paradise would that be?

[A psychologist, criticizing Tzvi Fishman's anti-masturbation writings, asks, "Can you please answer a simply question, how many people do you know who's teeth have fallen out because they masturbate regularly?"]
Yes, I know many people who have false teeth and dentures. I also am perfectly comfortable with the Rambam's explanation that it is due to sexual transgression.
As far as your theory: 'Actually in my experience it is the religious guilt regarding sexuality that causes turmoil rather than the sexuality itself," Freud said the same thing. Not only did his teeth fall out, he developed cancer of the mouth, G-d forbid, had to undergo some 30 painful operations, and finally asked his doctor to administer a lethal dose of morphine to put him out of his pain.
Nothing positive will come out of letting people think that masturbation and other sexual transgression is a small matter. In his book, "Orot HaTshuva," Rabbi Kook explains that the sufferings of anxiety and depression that many people feel (what you call religious guilt) are the sufferings of the soul which is afflicted with sin, cutting the person off from G-d and alienating him from the harmony of existence.
In the case of masturbation, Kabbalists explain this torment as deriving from destructive spiritual forces (kelipot) caused by the sin, which attach themselves to a person and plague him like a radioactive cloud.

Women are not men with a different shape. Women are different from men. They don't think like us at all. We men have more in common with male chimpanzees than we do with women. Women cannot conceive original ideas, aren't capable of independent thought, are not self-aware, and have no sense of fairness. This isn't to say that women can't be good. Women can be good, but in a different way from men. Women are good when they are guided to form the right emotional connections. And this happens when men form a society that causes this to happen. Of course this can't happen in societies where women vote. If you feel a strong compulsion for equality, I suggest you redirect it to other male primates. I would much rather have male chimps vote than women.

Lawrence v. Texas
was a 5-4 decision and that's the one that gave the whole foundation for gay marriage because the court there said "look, here's the new deal: if it's consensual, it's constitutional."
So if an eleven year-old girl says she wants to have sex with a ninety-five year-old guy and they both consent, that's constitutional?
Now wait a minute; if five guys want to marry one girl and they consent, that's constitutional?
So what happened is that decision was a 5-4 decision that has opened the door to what we're seeing now not only with gay marriage but with what they're calling polyamorous marriages and open marriages and so many other things because the premise is that if everybody agrees, it's fine. And that's a wild decision.

When kids believe in Santa Claus there's a naughty and nice list. Does one child get to declare I don't believe in Santa therefore I get a gift from Santa no matter what I do, while the other child plays by the rules to get a gift from Santa? Usually the non-believing child no longer gets a gift from Santa but from mom and dad.
Marriage is a gift from God and we believers live under His law, if you don't believe and live by Gods law, why should you get a gift of God that is for His believers? Have a civil union that isn't a gift from God but a gift of mans law.
Does a Mathematician rant and rave and go ape-chit offended with a book containing words because it is not all numbers? Atheists and homosexuals just want to snatch the lolly from another. Miserable Nellie Olesons...the lot of them!

America was brought into being by people who put their lives, property and money (everything they had) to promote liberty. Liberty is the hope of all people who aspire to to being free from the rule, often called governance, of the blue bloods who seek to enslave all common people. Liberty entails personal responsibility. which sitting on your ass and believing someone else owes you a living is about as obsene as the POPE cursing at mass. The blue bloods promote this false belief to enable their success. The liberal population of America is not deserving of the blood sacrifice that has been made for them by real Americans. That strata of population needs to go somewhere else to live or be exterminated. Mitt Romney, is actually speaking truth here, which sit on your ass peiple who call themselves Americans don't want to hear. Treason is not a constitutional right. Get real or die.

Obama rainbow flag design
The Obama rainbow flag has nine stripes instead of the original thirteen. The five red stripes are streaks, like red paint. Or maybe blood. Jim Hoft at Gateway Pundit said early this morning that the five red stripes look a lot like bloodstains. In fact Hoft compared them to the blood streaks that at least one American left on the wall of the US Consulate in Benghazi before he died there.
The four white stripes are not so much stripes as spaces between stripes. Again that evokes the streaks that a wounded man might make on a wall with his spread-out fingers.
The flag's union (upper left-hand corner) has the worst change. The fifty stars on a blue field are missing. In their place is a light cyan capital O with a rainbow running along the bottom—the official logo of the Obama campaign.
Barack Obama does not even try to disavow the Obama rainbow flag. Three years ago, someone designed the Obama face flag, having seven red and six white stripes, with Obama's face for a union. It sold on eBay until eBay administration de-listed it. But on March 14, 2012, the Democratic Party office in Leesburg, Florida, flew an Obama face flag beneath a proper US flag. A local veteran reminded the party leader sharply that the Obama face flag breaks the US Flag Code. The office took the flag down.
In contrast, Barack Obama offers the Obama rainbow flag for sale from the campaign's online store. Price: $35. (CNAV will not link to the site. CNAV has a policy against handing out free advertising.) Todd Starnes, at Fox Radio, describes a second print, showing the Obama rainbow flag inside the outline of the continental USA.
The official title of the Obama rainbow flag: "Our stripes." That is yet another mistake. Stripes are a symbol of struggle, and often of political punishment. So "Our stripes" could mean "Our struggle." Or in German, Unser Kampf. Think how close that is to Mein Kampf.

You can't force people to bow down to your faith and belief systems of sickness, fear, disease and death or charge them money and imprison them if they don't, just because they believe in a Higher more powerful and Loving Eternal, Omnipotent, Omnipressent God that has All power over All of your false gods, blasphemies and idolatries you worship, Obama. God will stop you! Jesus the living Christ, God and The Holy Spirit power of God, which cannot be removed, is in and around us in the light, sun, air, water, sun, solar flare and substance, is our physician and you cannot force us to bow down to your idolatry, blasphemies and false gods Obama-nation king of babylon, your fire will not burn us as tried in Daniel 3, but your own fire shall be on yourself with the fire of Our God, The Righteous and pure Man's collective conscience against mortality, disease, greed, exploitation of wages, homosexuals, murderers, wars and death. The righteous and pure has removed the daily sacrifice and Obama has set up the Obamanation of dessolation.

[on the Wikipedia entry, Existence of God]
I'd like to suggest an additional notion and this is that Atheist are by definition not credible toward a discussion of God because they have already left the idea more or less totally! Thus, they don't care if the definition of God looks this or that way. ALL they care for, is to see it removed for good, hence the continuous attacks on Scientology that is a far more tolerant religious system, but is a religion under constant attacks by "nuts", founded in this lunacy or that!

Security analysts are warning of another malicious software program masquerading as an installer file for Skype.
The program sends the victim's Skype credentials, as well as any other logins or passwords stored in Internet Explorer, to another server, wrote Villu Arak, a Skype spokesman based in Tallinn, Estonia, on a Skype blog.
Skype, the VoIP program owned by eBay, is frequently targeted by malware writers because it's widely used. Other attacks have focused on sending links to malware via Skype's chat function as well as worms.
This Trojan horse appears as an installer with Skype's logo and the name '65404-SkypeDefenderSetup.exe'. Once the program is executed, users see a convincing Skype login interface, although the graphic for the 'sign in' button is different from that of the genuine Skype application.
Login credentials can be entered, but none of the other menu functions work, said Chris Boyd, security research manager for FaceTime. Microsoft Corp.'s Internet Explorer can locally store passwords as a convenience for users as part of the browser's 'autocomplete' function, but it is possible for software to improperly access the information.
The Trojan has been spread through spam as well as through instant-messaging conversations with a link to the malware, Arak said.
"This piece of malware does not propagate itself," Arak said. "Luckily, because the malware depends on the "human factor" to propagate, it is not widely spread. And we've received only a few complaints in customer support."
One user complained last week on Skype's forum of an infection, adding that his account was subsequently shut down.
"I was stupid," the user wrote. "Please, please help."

Polymers & High Performance Materials
The School of Polymers and High Performance Materials is a national leader in the multidisciplinary field that touches on everyday items such as LCD TVs, paints and coatings, synthetic fabrics, golf clubs and shampoo.
But its cutting-edge research is anything but ordinary.
Polymer researcher Marek Urban and graduate student Biswajit Ghosh, for example, have created a type of polyurethane coating that has self-healing properties: When it's scratched and then exposed to ultraviolet light, damaged molecules reform and erase the imperfection.
As technology magazine Wired explained, "A few years down the road, you may be able to get that scratch out of your car's bumper simply by parking in a sunny spot." The research study was published in the journal Science in 2009.
Facilities and rankings
Based in the $30 million, 104,000-square-foot Shelby F. Thames Polymer Science Research Center, researchers have access to state-of-the-art testing equipment, an advanced microscopy center, and a fabrication and electronics facility to design and create new equipment.
National rankings, such as those published by Academic Analytics on scholarly productivity, list the school in the top 10 based on its faculty members' productivity. Industry partnerships and government funding bring in millions of research dollars annually.
Composites in action
Researchers are developing new composite materials that are akin to the Olympic creed of "faster, higher, stronger." The composites will be used to build stronger, more durable materials that will find applications in areas such as next-generation marine and aerospace vehicles.
Lightweight, high-performance composite parts will be produced for GE Aviation's GEnx engine on Boeing 787 and 747-8 aircraft. A $2.4 million grant from the Mississippi Development Authority is funding the Southern Miss-GE collaboration.
The school is a cross-discipline mix of researchers from chemistry, physics, chemical engineering and biochemistry – and, since 2007, human performance and recreation.
Good sports get better
The first-of-its-kind Sports and High Performance Materials program was created to research the creation of safer and longer-lasting clothing and apparel, prosthetics and sports equipment. Additional applications are body armor and materials for military use.
Graduates will be prepared to work in the sports industry, knowledgeable not only in the science of polymers and materials but also in biomechanics and exercise physiology. Polymer Science and Engineering professor Jeff Wiggins, in fact, is a former general manager of manufacturing at Nike.
Getting personal with polymers
Another industry leader is Dr. Robert Lochhead, a longtime researcher and expert on the properties of materials that are used in cosmetics, shampoo and other personal-care products. He is president of the Society of Cosmetic Chemists and in March 2010 brought an international panel to Southern Miss to name the complex chemical compounds that make up products such as toothpaste, hair dyes and shaving cream.
Scientists, business leaders and government regulators from the Food and Drug Administration, Clairol, L'Oreal, Estee Lauder and Dow-Corning – and from as far away as Europe and Japan – participated in the important oversight work.

HANG TIME HEADQUARTERS — LeBron James is a student of the game, has always been aware of his place in the history of the game and is engaged in the ongoing saga that is his life in basketball.
And yet, when the Miami Heat star plays the way he did Monday night against the Charlotte Bobcats, his actions flow as if he's in "The Matrix", free of anything else but his maniacal desire to do whatever it takes to make sure his team wins.
Placing his work in the proper historical context is simple, given how few have done what he's done and are capable of doing what he can do any night.
LeBron isn't the first player in NBA history to have a 30-plus point game with eight or more rebounds and assists while also shooting 90 percent or better from the floor, the way he did against the Bobcats. But he is the first to do so since Wilt Chamberlain did it this month in 1967 (Wilt actually pulled it off twice before that, in January of 1967 and February of 1966).
Think about that line for a second … 31 points on 13-for-14 shooting, eight rebounds, eight assists, two steals and five turnovers. And his numbers could have been even more ridiculous had he been more aggressive with his own shot instead of playing with his usual court awareness, as he explained to Michael Wallace of ESPN.com's Heat Index:
"I'm aware," James admitted. "But I'm more aware of time and score, team fouls, who has it going, who doesn't have it going. I'm aware of all of that kind of stuff, too. So with myself, I just let the game flow. I'm not one to — even though I had one of those games tonight — I always look at it afterward and say, 'Why didn't I take more shots?' But that's just who I am. I had some more looks, but my teammates had better looks. That's what it's about."
That 46-year gap represents more than just several generations of NBA stars and fans, it also signals the gulf between perhaps the two most dominant physical specimens at their respective positions (Shaquille O'Neal was a similar physical freak of nature during his era, though there were more skilled 7-footers around during Shaq's glory days than what Wilt faced during his).
History will determine LeBron's place and overall impact, same as it did for Wilt, Bill Russell, Jerry West, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant and every other NBA great.
If LeBron hung his kicks up today, he would still belong somewhere in the conversation of the game's true greats — wouldn't he?
I argued about that this morning with an old head who was raised on Wilt and has managed to stay plugged into the game the past four decades. He agreed that LeBron, Shaq and Wilt are the most physically imposing players he can remember seeing in the NBA at their respective positions.
"I won't sit here and tell you I've watched as much NBA basketball as the folks who are paid to do so," my old head said. "But I've been watching for a lot longer than you and some of these other loudmouths I see on TV and I'm telling you, [LeBron] is something I've never seen before. He's got the size and all the skills. The athleticism is what's just off the charts. I've been courtside before at games, years ago and here in recent years, and I've just never seen anything like him. Magic was the last player I remember seeing move like that and play like that at LeBron's size. It's unreal."
Funny, James describes performances like the one he delivered against the Bobcats as basically routine. Surely, he stopped surprising himself a long time ago.
What LeBron has done in the past few years of his career is round out of his game in ways that even his biggest critics have to admit they weren't sure he could. His ability to play inside and out, when needed, combined with the raw physical advantages he still has over any foe presents a pretty impossible package to stop.
"I'm an all-around player," James told the Heat Index. "I can do whatever the game presents. I can make shots from the outside. Of course, I can make shots from the inside. But I don't let the game determine my game. I go out and figure it out and just play the way I need to play to help our team win. So, I don't know, I'm very confident in my ability and I just go out and try to make things happen."
Criticize him all you want, and Naismith knows he has an abundance of haters. But make no mistake that there is one player, and only one player, in the NBA capable of making the sort of "things happen" that LeBron does.
And that might be the case for another 46 years.

Introducing HULK (Http Unbearable Load King).1-twitter-dos-data
In my line of work, I get to see tons of different nifty hacking tools, and traffic generation tools that are meant to either break and steal information off a system, or exhaust its resource pool, rendering the service dead and putting the system under a denial of service.
For a while now, I have been playing with some of the more exotic tools, finding that their main problem is always the same… they create repeatable patterns. too easy to predict the next request that is coming, and therefor mitigate. Some, although elegant, lack the horsepower to really put a system on its knees.
For research purposes, I decided to take some of the lessons I've learned over time and practice what I preach.
Enforcing Python's engines, I wrote a script that generates some nicely crafted unique Http requests, one after the other, generating a fair load on a webserver, eventually exhausting it of resources. this can be optimized much much further, but as a proof of concept and generic guidance it does its job.
As a guideline, the main concept of HULK, is to generate Unique requests for each and every request generated, thus avoiding/bypassing caching engines and effecting directly on the server's load itself.
I have published it to Packet Storm, as we do.
Some Techniques
Obfuscation of Source Client – this is done by using a list of known User Agents, and for every request that is constructed, the User Agent is a random value out of the known list
Reference Forgery – the referer that points at the request is obfuscated and points into either the host itself or some major prelisted websites.
Stickiness – using some standard Http command to try and ask the server to maintain open connections by using Keep-Alive with variable time window
no-cache – this is a given, but by asking the HTTP server for no-cache , a server that is not behind a dedicated caching service will present a unique page.
Unique Transformation of URL – to eliminate caching and other optimization tools, I crafted custom parameter names and values and they are randomized and attached to each request, rendering it to be Unique, causing the server to process the response on each event.
Basically my test web server with 4gb of Ram running Microsoft IIS7 was brought to its knees under less than a minute, running all requests from a single host.
In the pictures below you can see the tool in action, where it first ( #1 ) executed against a URL, and then the tool starts generating a load of unique requests and sending over the target server ( host of the URL ), and second ( #2 ) we can see that the server at some point starts failing to respond since it has exhausted its resource pool.

Food allergies increased 18 percent in the decade between 1997 and 2007, according to one study published in the journal Pediatrics in 2009. It is now estimated that 3.9 percent of people suffer from food allergies—most of them children.
Milk allergies were the most prevalent food allergy, followed by allergies to peanuts and eggs.
Allergies are caused when a person's immune system mistakenly attacks a harmless substance such as a protein in food. The immune system creates antibodies to the offending food and the next time it is eaten, the body releases chemicals such as histamines to "protect" the body. When it comes to eggs, proteins in the egg white are more likely to cause an allergic reaction than those in the yolk, although some people are allergic to both.
The symptoms of an egg allergy are similar to other types of allergies and may include one or more of the following:
- skin reactions such as eczema, hives, or swelling
- stomach pain, nausea, diarrhea, or vomiting
- trouble breathing or wheezing
- stuffy or runny nose
- fast heartbeat
In extremely rare cases, anaphylactic shock may occur.
In Children
Egg allergy is the most common food allergy in children, as well as the most likely to resolve prior to school age. Nearly all allergic reactions due to eggs occur in those kids with infantile eczema.
Egg allergies usually appear at a very early age, with the severest reactions occurring between six and 15 months.
Typical symptoms of an egg allergy in children are skin contact reactions, redness of the face, or hives around the mouth if an egg-containing product is eaten.
Children with an egg allergy have a natural aversion to foods that contain eggs. A child with a normally healthy appetite will most often eschew eggs and even cakes and cookies.
Recipes for Kids with Egg Allergies
Coming up with something kids can eat that doesn't contain eggs can be a daunting task for parents. Eggs are almost always found in breads, pasta, cereals, pastries, cookies, and cakes. "Shiny" breads such as bagels and pretzels almost always contain eggs as well. Eggs often show up in candies, cream fillings, salad dressings, and beverages such as root beer. Also, any fried restaurant food (including french fries) that was used to cook egg-battered foods may trigger an allergic reaction.?
Foods that may or may not contain eggs include macaroni, marshmallows, and noodles, among others. Parents should consult the manufacturer of these products to be sure.
Also, any food that includes the words "emulsifier," "binder," or "coagulant," or any ingredients that begin with the word "ova" or "ova" on the label, will contain eggs.
Other ingredients to watch out for include:
- albumin (an egg protein)
- artificial or natural flavorings
- egg substitute (usually made with egg whites)
- globulin
- lecithin E322
- livetin
- lysozyme
- mayonnaise
- meringue
- silici albuminate
- simplesse
- vitellin
Non-food products that may contain egg include finger paints, shampoos, certain medicines, make-up, and some vaccines, including most flu vaccines, as well as those for yellow fever and MMR.
Try these recipes if your child has egg allergies. »
In Adults
An egg allergy is extremely rare in adults. Clinical symptoms in adults almost always begin in childhood or young adulthood. Reactions are very rare as well. Even the most allergic adults usually have no more than mild nausea or a flaring of eczema after consuming an egg-containing product.
Other symptoms in adults may include lip or eyelid swelling, itchy or watery eyes, itchy ears or throat, shortness of breath, wheezing, or coughing. Like children, adults with an egg allergy have a natural aversion to eggs.
Egg Substitute for Allergies
There are several commercial egg replacers on the market that are suitable for baking. Unlike egg substitutes, however, egg replacers cannot be used to prepare omelets or scrambles. Egg replacers are typically a combination of potato starch, tapioca starch and baking soda.
