Gov. Jerry Brown today signed a bill that gives $24 million to the state Department of Justice to take firearms away from convicted felons and other people who cannot legally possess guns.
Senate Bill 140, approved by the Senate and Assembly in April, goes into effect immediately because it was treated as an urgency measure, said bill co-author Sen. Mark Leno (D-San Francisco).
The bill addresses the backlog of 20,000 Californians who illegally possess about 40,000 handguns and assault weapons. People who aren't allowed to have firearms are listed in the state's Armed Prohibited Persons System, which cross-references gun purchases since 1996 with people who can't own firearms. Another 15 to 20 people who aren't allowed to have guns are added to the backlog daily.
"While our state is the only one in the nation that has a system to track and identify persons who at one time made legal purchases of firearms but are now barred from possessing them, until now we have lacked sufficient resources to take back those weapons," Leno said in a press release.
Funds, coming from the Dealer Record of Sale account, will allow the state to train more agents to enforce the APPS database.
Local law enforcement has already started focusing heavily on the program.
Redlands police's Multiple Enforcement Team and the state Department of Justice Bureau of Firearms contacted 11 people in the city last week who are listed in the database. Officers seized 13 firearms and concealed weapons permits previously issued in California and Arizona, police said.
Leno said, in addition to convicted felons, the bill also takes firearms away from people determined to be mentally unstable.
It is the first bill addressing gun violence to reach the Governor's desk this year.
Firearms advocacy groups have already voiced opposition to the bill.
The Firearms Policy Coalition said on its website that there aren't guidelines to verify the accuracy of APPS before law enforcement raids homes.
"(The bill) takes millions of unconstitutionally-collected Dealer Record of Sales funds to compensate for the failure of more than 500 local law enforcement agencies not enforcing existing gun laws," the group said.

You cannot install STP cable unless the rest of the equipment you're using is going to properly ground the cable. So you'd need a patch panel that is going to ground all the connectors that are plugged in. STP cable is much harder to work with as well as the shielding makes the cable very stiff. You also need to purchase special RJ45's for STP to allow for a shielded connection.
One more thing to add:
When you're running network cable in any environment you need to be aware of where you're running it. You should keep it at least 3feet from florescent fixtures (the ballast especially) and you should always cross 120v/240v lines at right angles. CAT5e/6 should never be run parallel to power lines. When terminating, you should untwist the cable no more than 1/2inch. I just ran some line in one of our stations and had to keep it 6 feet from the 480V 3phase VFD's to prevent interference. I did not run STP, but just kept aware of the potential issues so I could use UTP.

"Backbones" of Chapel Return to Sacred Ground
15 May 2011 • Campus Gathering • Deborah (Malacky) Belonick
If you walk into Three Hierarchs Chapel just as the bell that calls our community to worship begins to toll, 15 minutes before the start of any service, you'll note a striking atmosphere. Candles are flickering in shining lampadas, sheet music is neatly stacked on choir stands, incense is wafting in the quiet air, dimmer switches are set just so, readers are lined up with texts in hand, and altar servers are vested and at the ready. The prayerful setting is produced by our student sacristans and ecclesiarchs. They are the ones who create an aura of expectation, calm, and order just before a service begins, and they are the ones who keep a service flowing on course, like water through a riverbed.
"They are the backbone of liturgical life here at the seminary," says the chief Chapel Ecclesiarch, Fr. Alexander Rentel, who also is Assistant Professor of Canon Law at St. Vladimir's. "They are ones that show up a good half hour before each service, never complaining. They're faithful, loyal liturgical leaders who love the church services.
"They are also the first line of defense if ever there's a problem in chapel," he continues, "they are often the first to make corrections, when corrections need to be made. I refuse to say that they 'work for me,' because they 'work with me.' They teach me a s well. They are a fine, fine group of people...everyone of them that I've worked with."
And, he's worked with several. Among his alumni ecclesiarchs he names: Andrew Smith (current), Dn. Evan Freeman, Gregory Abdalah, Dn. Nicholas Belcher, Daniel Belonick, Peter Drobac, and Dn. Kevin Smith; among his alumni sacristans are: Lee Bozeman and Dn. Dunstan Lyon (both current), Dn. Evan Freeman, Dn. Nicholas Hubbard, Fr. Barnabas Powell, Fr. Nathan Preston, and Jacob Hatch. "Next year," he says, "our seminarian, Harrison Russin," will resume the tradition of a 'double-duty' ecclesiarch, both serving in that capacity and directing the choir from time-to-time, as others did in the past."
This past Sunday several "alumni" sacristans and ecclesiarchs happened to be in our seminary chapel, and they joined current sacristans and ecclesiarchs and Fr. Alexander for a photo shoot. Some offered reminisces of their experiences as chapel overseers, sharing with us what goes on "behind the veil":
"The sacristan, in many ways, can really be called a master of ceremonies. It's his job to make sure that everything needed for a specific service is set out and ready to go, to make sure all the candles are lit, and, in short, to make the clergy look good and that the services flow smoothly without a hitch. While things may be going well in front of the iconostasis, it can often be just a bit less than smooth sailing behind the iconostasis. Though this is one of the more demanding community service assignments on campus, I feel blessed to have been chosen to serve in this position the past two years. In fact, there's no other community service assignment I'd rather have!
"Perhaps the greatest joy of being a sacristan is getting to work with all sorts of people. Not only am I able to help train all the students on campus, but I've also gotten to serve with bishops from all over the country, and the world. Perhaps my favorite people to work with in the sacristy are the young children of the professors and students. They always have a story that makes me smile, and they bring a prayerful energy to the altar that can't be matched. Even if they can never remember to button the top button of their shirt when vested, I can always depend on them to make the entrances without any mistakes. I'll never forget the several times a seminarian was lost in the service and the young altar boy would grab him by the cassock and lead him to where he's supposed to be. Though the seminarian's face may be red with embarrassment, my face has a proud grin on it."—Dn. Dunstan Lyon
"One of my favorite memories of being an Assistant Sacristan here at SVOTS during my first year was ringing the festal bells before Vigils and on Sundays and feastdays— including one time when Nick Hubbard (then the Head Sacristan, now Fr. Nicholas Hubbard) and I were ringing the bells (both of us were wearing headphones) and Archdeacon Kirill Sokolov (wearing no headphones and with a big smile) joined in, ringing the bells with us. It was the best I had ever heard those bells, and it was a particularly joyous moment."—Fr. Maximus Cabey
"As the student Ecclesiarch, I remember fondly the regular conversations I had with Fr. Paul Lazor concerning the order of our chapel services. His expansive knowledge of liturgics, seasoned with pastoral discernment, had a great impact on me. In addition, working with the texts of our hymnographic tradition, especially under the guidance of Fr. Alex Rentel, made me appreciate the beauty and brilliance of Orthodox worship in a way I never before appreciated."—Daniel Belonick
"One of my favorite memories is when Nick Hubbard, Brock Johns, and I were serving as sacristans for the Paschal services in 2008. We had gathered as many different kinds of incense as we could, both from the chapel, and also from the seminarians around campus, to use for the Paschal services. You can imagine the dramatic contrast when, after using only Frankincense for all of Lent, we put around 15 different kinds of festal incense into the censers during Paschal Matins and the Divine Liturgy!"—Dn. Evan Freeman
"Each Saturday at Vigil, I really enjoy the 1st Hour. All of the lights are off at that moment and the priest is standing at the altar with a candle. It is, for the most part, very quiet. The servers and deacons have all un-vested and they stand in their places in the altar in the darkness and in silence. There is something about that moment that is really pleasant. And then we begin to sing 'O, Champion Leader' and the sound swells, especially when I am able to stand near Fr. Alexander, who sings it with great gusto. That is a favorite moment of mine."—David Lee Bozeman
Current Sacristan Dn. Dunstan Lyon gives some wise, final counsel to any future sacristans and ecclesiarchs, "From the secret book, which is handed down sacristan to sacristan":
"You have been blessed with an important and difficult task. …I had considered also writing about the 'way of the sacristan,' but much of the value in the service you are about to undertake lies in the discovery of all this ministry entails. Though there are there are many common threads, each experience is unique. …One, hopefully enduring piece of advice is this: try to pray when you can…"

LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- Bobby Petrino will take the Cards into the ACC with 21 new recruits.
Petrino's first class consisted mostly of players who had committed to Charlie Strong before he left for the Texas job earlier this year. The class consists of 12 offensive players and nine on the defensive side of the ball. The Cards signed five players from Florida while only getting one Kentucky signee, quarterback Reggie Bonnafon from Trinity.
Petrino says he feels that the class "meets the needs we had".

When you feel like changing your medicineMedication - non-compliance
You may find a time when you want to stop or change your medicine. But changing or stopping your medicine on your own can be dangerous. It could make your condition worse.
Learn how to talk to your doctor and pharmacist about your medicine. You can make decisions together so you feel well with your medicines.
Common Reasons for Changing Medicine
You may think about stopping or changing your medicine when you:
- Feel better
- Think it is not working
- Are having side effects and feel bad
- Are worried about the costs
Do Not Stop Taking Your Medicine When You Feel Better
You often feel better quickly from taking some medicine. You may feel like you don't need to take it anymore.
Know that you will not get the full effect, or you could make your condition worse, if you stop taking your medicine before you are supposed to. Here are some examples:
- When you take antibiotics, you will feel better in 1 - 2 days. If you stop taking the medicine early, you may get sick again.
- If you are taking a steroid pack for your asthma, you will feel better quickly. You may think you can stop taking it because you feel so good. Suddenly stopping a steroid pack can make you feel very sick.
Do Not Stop Taking Your Medicine If You Think It Isn't Working
If you do not feel better, you may think your medicine is not working. Talk to your doctor before you make any changes. Find out:
- What to expect from the medicine. Some medicines may take more time to make a difference.
- If you are taking the medicine correctly
- If there is another medicine that may work better
If Your Medicine Makes You Feel Sick, Talk to Your Doctor
Some medicines may make you feel sick. You may have a sick stomach, itchy skin, dry throat, or something else that doesn't feel right.
When your medicine makes you feel sick, you may want to stop taking it. Talk to your doctor before stopping any medicine. The doctor may:
- Change your dose so you don't feel sick from it
- Change your medicine to a different kind
- Give you suggestions on how to feel better when taking the medicine
Talk to Your Doctor If You Can't Afford Your Medicine
Medicines can cost a lot of money. If you are worried about money, you may try to cut costs.
Please do NOT cut pills in half, take fewer doses than prescribed, or take your medicine only when you feel bad. This can make your condition worse.
Talk to your doctor if you do not have enough money for your medicine. Your doctor may be able to change your medicine to a generic brand that costs less. Many pharmacies and drugs companies have programs for reducing the cost for patients.
When to Call the Doctor
Call the doctor when you feel like changing your medicine. Know all the medicines that you take. Tell your doctor about your prescription medicines, over-the-counter drugs, and any vitamins, supplements, or herbs. Together with your doctor, decide what medicines you will take.

I have personally witnessed the difference that this organization has made to the lives of people who utilize IPT as their Best Answer to Cancer. I am proud to say the founder of this organization was a very close friend. Though her life was cut short by the cancer she fought, her quality of life was greatly enhanced during those last few years due to her choice of IPT as her treatment. If I am ever faced with the decision of what to do about a cancer this is the organization I will turn to. The collaborative efforts of the wonderful people involved definitely live up to the name of Best Answer for Cancer.
Being a manufacturer of natural products for both the professional and consumer markets, we attend 40+ different conferences each year. I am responsible for our professional Argentyn 23 brand, and as such, I attend the medical conferences on behalf of our company. Best Answer for Cancer stands out as one of The Best conferences of all because of their ability to bring the greatest minds in complementary and integrative oncology together, while sharing new ideas and programs, all of which enhance survival rates and the healthy lifespans of an exponentially growing number of cancer patients. In this industry, we have always said "If the cancer doesn't kill you, the treatment will". That was when allopathic intervention had the stage. That time is now receding as more and more patients and their physicians seek out and embrace kinder and gentler medicine, which offers what allopathic medicine cannot. Real improved outcomes. And Best Answer for Cancer leads the way, from the ONLY organic food served to the vast array of better equipped physicians and some of the best natural therapies manufacturers all congregated in one place annually. Best Answer is a must-attend event.
Seth Q.
Best Answer for Cancer brings together the most diverse, qualified, innovative health professionals available from throughout the world. They also invite quality vendors with ideas, concepts, products, and solutions that are cutting edge and innovative.
There is a huge emphasis on new science and research focusing on "cause not cure". The physicians attending these conferences are interested in providing healthy choices in their administering of care. They find the right products with the right ingredients and technology at Best Answer for Cancer.
We have been a vendor at several conferences and find the atmosphere to be welcoming, receptive, knowledgeable and committed.
Michael and Elizabeth Fessler, Herbalix Restoratives
As the Director of Behavioral Medicine for a cancer center I am impressed with Best Answer for Cancer's emphasis on holistic wellness and cancer treatment. Focusing on the mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of an individual's experience have salutary effects on quality of life as well as outcome. It is a pleasure to recommend this progressive, innovative and caring organization!
Just like the name of the foundation says:"Best Answer for Cancer", we have learned and research continues to support that those that are living with cancer, beating cancer and healing from it and its short/long term effects which in many cases are from regular treatments of the disease. In many situations (and most when Quality of Life is looked at and measured) those that have an integrative treatment and work with practitioners that understand this and heal the body on multiple levels with a solid common sense approach to human health, nutrition, and understanding the type of cancer/history of the patient etc. are by and large more successful. There is no one answer, especially with cancer and each of us are different and the BACF organization understands this and has created their conference, education and support around this. I have seen first hand the success in many cases over the years and am thankful for what Annie Brandt has created in the BACF and supported to reach out and help other people and their families that are dealing with this dreaded disease.
My company Hope4Cancer exhibited at 2013 conference. This group of medical professionals are on the front line of pioneering non-toxic Cancer therapies. Thank you for this forum of breakthrough technologies which those great doctors can exchange their experience and research. This maybe one of the most important forums that the doctors can receive their CE credits (continuing education).
I've attended several of their professional conferences and they have been excellent. Great information on how to approach cancer.
I went to my first International Conference sponsored by Best Answer for Cancer in 2014 and was truly amazed by the amazing 3 day program. Medical professionals gathered to share their knowledge and commitment to providing the best answers for cancer to their patients.
The community and passion the participants share is inspiring! Coming from all over the world with the goal of providing the best outcomes and supporting the whole person makes these people worth donating time to.
I volunteered with this organization throughout the fall of 2011, and the ability this organization has to do so much in so little time with such a small staff blew me away. Annie Brandt is a great leader and with her in charge, I'm looking forward to seeing the amazing work that this foundation will continue to do in the future.
I am a mother who has saved the life of my daughter with the help of good medical doctors - both M.D. and D.O. In the 9 years it took to get my daughter healthy and well, I did an extraordinary amount of medical research, which included cancer. I can say in earnest that this organization is not only amazing, but is a leading edge organization. the Best Answer for Cancer Foundation is the place I direct consumers to donate to if they want to donate to cancer. Best Answer for Cancer Foundation should receive a top rating for a number of reasons - but the top one in my humble opinion is for innovation and using good science.

Amelia and Jake have been together for about a year. Amelia knows that she loves him, but lately he has been distant. He come home late and he doesn't want to talk to her. She gets a call from her best friend, Daina, that she won tickets to a One Direction concert. Without hesitation she says yes. But what happens when she end up with one of the boys in his apartment? And what would happen to Jake and Amelia's relationship? "Jake, I need to talk to you about something." I wasn't sure how to tell him. I know that he'll get angry, hell I know that I would have been angry if he did the same thing I did. I regret it so much but he still needs to know. I stared at him for a moment, before walking over to him. He just sat there, pretending he didn't hear me like he always does. "Jake.. I.. you know that I went to that One Direction concert yesterday... and something happen. I.. um.." He stoped me by saying: "We need to break up.''

Hey Mark, quick question... Exactly why is it that I have more ambition to be active or exercise when I'm fasting. I mean, it makes sense that when the body needs fuel, it'll be more willing to go get it... but what's the nerdy science behind it. I'd love to know!

Moonkin Hatchling (Horde)
Binds when picked up
Use: Teaches you how to summon this companion.
Occasionally will throw a flower at the player's feet. Dances with players who initiate /dance with it. Also sometimes hops up and flaps its wings.
Vocalizations (on-click)
Players can emote /dance while targeting Moonkin Hatchling and it will dance with them.
Limited to horde characters.
This pet is available for digital download exclusively from the Blizzard Store. Characters will receive a Moonkin Egg on both Alliance and Horde characters, containing either this version or the Alliance version depending on their faction.
It may be purchased using any major credit card. Players who purchase this pet will receive a code which may be redeemed on a single WoW account. Thus, players who have more than one WoW account bound to their Battle.net accounts must choose which account will receive this pet. Codes may also be purchased as gifts for other players.
As of Patch 4.0.6, the Moonkin Hatchling will fly along side a player mounted on a flying mount.
In 2010, proceeds from Moonkin Hatchling adoptions went to charity. It generated over $800,000 for the Make-a-Wish Foundation.
Does anyone have any updated information as to this pet being bugged? I have a level 2 version and am unable to use it to battle at this point. Thanks in advance for any other information!
As of 5.3, when you buy this pet, you will get the 2 version of this pet, one sent to the first Horde character you login into and one to the first Alliance character you login into.
If your on a Horde character, you can not summon the Alliance version of this pet, put the Alliance version of this pet into your battle pet party, nor can you go into a pet battle if you have this pet already in your battle pet party. Vice Versa
Having both versions of this pet only counts as 1 unique ingame, but 2 on this site.
Not sure if it is a bug or intentional but my Horde toon has both the Alliance and Horde versions of this pet. They are both counting towards my pet achievments as well. However while my horde toon does have the alliance version I can't summon it.
Plus he grows flowers randomly to bring cheer and smiles to your day.
He is the best! I love my little Moony (As is the name i have given mine)

Sounds like an issue with your hardware I'd guess. Did you try to search this forum? Did you try to manually install it without the ubiquity installer?
Hey all! I recently downloaded backtrack 4 prefinal iso and booted it on a usb drive. It works fine but when I try to install it it always gives me an error at 90% when the system is "Detecting Hardware". From what I remember in the error message "Too many input devices... Connection to Server X lost". I tried to boot it from a dvd and I checked the integrity of the iso image (md5 checksum) but nothing worked :S. Is this a problem in my hardware setup (Incompatibility) or it is a bug?
Sounds like an issue with your hardware I'd guess. Did you try to search this forum? Did you try to manually install it without the ubiquity installer?

before install any operating system. You must format hdd/usb by fdisk or norton partition magic in hiren't boot cd, or qtparted. Because this is standard format. you can also use format during install OS with wihite hdd (hdd do not have anything).
on the DVD, i did had problems booting my dvd, so as the USB, so I took that modifyed tool that boots bt4 pre final like in bt4/3 (the same boot options screen), and it worked , but since its a DVD, i dont know (yet) how to give you the idea on making it bootable :P
I would like to great all members of forums on start
I had the same problem exactly as guruhacker, with dual boot installation BT4 PF on my Acer Aspire 5920G laptop.But that solution of problem was simply,so i tray explain exactly how repair that in the most simply way.
After error of installation you must reboot once more you live cd,and open partition editor,after instalation is left two prepared partition,swap and ext3, you must format both,in the same format and mark ext3 partition as boot.when you do that all,you normaly run ubiquity installer and do everything exactly the same but in step 3 you take manual partition choice,you mark ext3 partition for install and mark mounting point as root,everything else you will do like normal install from ubiquity,you also can`t forget to mark dualboot on step 6 in tab advanced of installation.After instalation on my laptop everything work correct,BT4 and win vista,booting from grub loader.

GSA Announces 1999 Per Diem Rates for Federal Travelers
GSA News Release
U.S. General Services Administration, Washington, DC 20405
December 2, 1998
Contact: Eleni Martin (202) 501-1231
Bill Rivers (202) 208-7631
GSA Announces 1999 Per Diem Rates for Federal Travelers
New per diem rates compensate travelers fairly and protect the interest of taxpayers
WASHINGTON, D.C.-The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) today announced updated per diem rates for federal employees on official travel in the 48 contiguous states and the District of Columbia. The rates, published in the Federal Register today, take effect January 1, 1999.
For 1999, GSA's Office of Governmentwide Policy, which is in charge of setting the rates, has focused on refining the per diem setting process to ensure more accurate reimbursement for Federal travelers. Significant changes in 1999:
� Taxes not included in the 1999 base per diem rates -- The 1999 per diem rates do not include an allowance for taxes. Taxes will now be paid separately from the room rate based on the actual tax expense incurred by the traveler
� Breakout of metropolitan area per diem rates -- Per diem rates have been set separately for local and surrounding areas in major metropolitan localities, allowing for a more accurate reflection of travel costs in these areas. Your per diem is based on where you conduct your business.
� Multiple per diem rates set for some counties -- In some cases, more than one rate has been set for a county to reflect lodging industry differences within that county.
� In, Out, and Shoulder per diem rates increase travel flexibility --
In addition to the "in" and "out" seasonal rates we have now added a "shoulder" rate that bridges the seasonal rates.
� Laundry/Dry Cleaning expense coverage removed from incidental expenses -- Laundry/dry cleaning will now be a separately vouchered and paid item based on actual expenses incurred.
� New Meals and Incidental Expenses (M&IE) Tier -- The rates for meals and incidental expenses now include an additional tier of $46.
The federal per diem rates are based on a lodgings-plus system, whereby employees are reimbursed for the actual cost of lodging up to a set limit. In addition, they receive a fixed amount for meals and incidental expenses. Individual rates have been set for 587 higher-cost U.S. cities. Lodging in these locations is paid by the government up to a set limit and reimbursement for meals and incidental expenses ranges from a low of $30 to a new high of $46.
GSA's per diem rates also apply to employees of certain government vendors when traveling in connection with federal contracts. Travel per diem rates for locations outside the continental United States -- Alaska, Hawaii, and the U.S. territories and possessions -- are set by the Department of Defense. Rates for international travel are set by the State Department.
A complete list of the 1999 per diem rates is on the Internet after the rates have been published in the Federal Register. The address is http://www.policyworks.gov/PERDIEM. For more information, contact: Bill Rivers at 202-208-7631.

Chicago $104 $46 $150 $120 $42 $162
Dallas $89 $46 $135 $94 $42 $136

A food allergy is a reaction of the body's immune system to otherwise harmless substances in certain foods. This is different from a food intolerance, which does not necessarily involve the immune system. Although 25% of people believe they are allergic to certain foods, only 4 - 8% of children and 2% of adults have diagnosed food allergies. While most food allergies are mild, in some cases they can cause anaphylactic shock, a serious, sometimes life-threatening reaction. Food allergies affect mostly young children, and about 90% of these allergies are caused by 8 foods: cow's milk, eggs, soy, peanuts, tree nuts, wheat, fish, and shellfish. With the exception of peanut allergy, the majority of children outgrow their food allergies.
Many people who think they have food allergies actually have food intolerances that may cause serious health issues themselves. Symptoms of a true food allergy usually involve the skin and intestines and typically begin just after eating and not longer than 2 hours following ingestion of the particular food. Common symptoms include:
When the symptoms listed above are extreme, they can be life threatening. Call a medical emergency response unit if you see the following signs of extreme allergic reaction (anaphylactic shock):
In most cases, allergies occur when an individual who has a genetic sensitivity to certain allergens is exposed to the substance. Foods frequently responsible for food allergies include:
Foods that may cause intolerance include:
Family history -- If both parents have food allergies, you have a 75% chance of having one yourself. If one parent has food allergies, you have a 30 - 40% chance. If neither parent has allergies, you have a 10 - 15% chance.
Excessive exposure to a particular food -- For example, in Japan where rice is a staple, rice is a common food allergen. In Scandinavia, the common allergen is codfish, and in India, chickpeas.
Your health care provider will take a comprehensive history to find out what symptoms you experience after eating and how soon after eating they occur. Your doctor will also want to know how often you have the reaction and what type of medical treatment you have received. Even if your symptoms seem clearly related to a specific food, your doctor may still want to do some tests to be sure that you have a true food allergy and to verify the food or foods responsible for your reaction.
The food causing the allergy can sometimes be identified by the following techniques:
Guidelines from reputable health agencies suggest some steps parents can take to reduce their child's chances of having food and other allergies, although there are no guarantees of success. If either or both parents have a personal or family history of allergy, for example, asthma, eczema, hay fever, perennial allergic rhinitis (allergy to animals, dust mites, or molds) the following is recommended:
Note: Not all studies agree on exclusive breastfeeding. The latest and largest study investigating the relationship between breastfeeding and allergies, particularly asthma, suggests that breastfeeding in the early months of life can prevent allergies until your child is 2 years old.
Since delaying foods allows the child's gastrointestinal tract to mature, the following strategies may be helpful:
The goals of treatment are to reduce symptoms and avoid future allergic reactions. Some allergiest prescribe desensitization therapies such as allergy shots. Once you are aware of the allergy, the best way to avoid a reaction is by not eating that food. Treatment at the time of a reaction varies according to the severity and type of symptoms. Mild symptoms may go away without treatment. Doctors generally recommend over-the-counter or prescription antihistamines to relieve mild itching, swelling, rash, runny nose, or headache. Soothing skin creams may provide some relief of rashes. Severe allergic reactions (anaphylactic shock) can come on suddenly and accelerate quickly; in this case, emergency treatment is needed. In some instances, survival may depend on an injection of epinephrine (adrenaline). Food allergy sufferers routinely learn to self administer epinephrine, which may save their life. Avoiding the offending food is the best way to prevent future allergic reactions.
Avoid offending foods. Read all package ingredients carefully (many foods are processed with peanuts, eggs, or milk products, such as whey). Call ahead when eating out. Take your own food with you on trips.
If you have a history of anaphylactic shock, you should keep a preloaded syringe of epinephrine with you. Your doctor will teach you and a close family member how to use it should the need arise. You should wear a medical bracelet or necklace indicating your particular food allergies.
Antihistamines are recommended for mild itching, swelling, rash, runny nose, or headache. They are available both by prescription and over the counter in many cold, sinus, and allergy remedies. These include diphenhydramine (Benadryl), cetirizine (Zyrtec), clemastine (Tavist), chlorpheniramine (Chlor Trimeton), desloratadine, fexofenadine (Allegra), hydroxyzine (Atarax), and loratadine (Claritin). Possible side effects include drowsiness, irritability, dry mouth, and heart palpitations.
Skin creams can help soothe rashes.
Epinephrine injection is used to prevent anaphylactic shock. If you have a food allergy that causes such a serious reaction, your doctor will have you carry an injectable epinepherine pen and teach you, and those with whom you spend a lot of time, how to use it in an emergency.
Nutrition and Dietary Supplements
Although you should avoid foods that provoke an allergic reaction, you do not need to restrict variety in your diet. Studies show that the vast majority of people are allergic to only one or two foods. However, you should be aware of the families of foods to which you are allergic. For example, if you are allergic to walnuts, you may also be allergic to pecans and almonds. An allergy to shrimp may also indicate an allergy to crab.
Following these nutritional tips may help reduce symptoms:
You may address nutritional deficiencies with the following supplements:
Herbs are generally available as standardized, dried extracts (pills, capsules, or tablets), teas, or tinctures or liquid extracts (alcohol extraction, unless otherwise noted). Mix liquid extracts with favorite beverage. Dose for teas is 1 - 2 heaping teaspoonfuls in a cup of water steeped for 10 - 15 minutes (roots need longer). People who have a blood disorder or who are taking blood-thinning medications should only take herbs under the supervision of a doctor since some herbs may have blood thinning effects.
The American Academy of Medical Acupuncture endorses the use of acupuncture for allergies such as food allergies. Acupuncture can help restore normal immune function.
Although very few studies have examined the effectiveness of specific homeopathic therapies, professional homeopaths may consider individualized remedies for the treatment of food allergy based on their knowledge and experience. Before prescribing a remedy, homeopaths take into account a person's constitutional type -- your physical, emotional, and intellectual makeup. An experienced homeopath assesses all of these factors when determining the most appropriate remedy for a particular individual.
Women who have a food allergy or a partner with a food allergy may be able to reduce the risk of allergy in their child by avoiding common allergenic foods during pregnancy and nursing.
Prognosis and Complications
Food allergies may cause symptoms ranging from mild abdominal discomfort to life-threatening anaphylaxis. Avoiding offending foods may be easy if the food is uncommon or easily identified. However, successful avoidance of offending foods requires strict reading of all ingredients in a package and detailed inquiries when eating away from home. Asthma may develop in about 5% of people who suffer from food allergy and current asthma may be triggered by foods among 6 - 8% of children and 2% of adults. Children may outgrow food allergies (particularly to milk or soy), but adults are unlikely to lose their allergies.

O world, I cannot hold thee close enough!
Thy winds, thy wide gray skies!
Thy mists, that roll and rise!
Thy woods, this autumn day, that ache and sag,
And all but cry with color! That gaunt crag,
To crush! To lift the lean of that black bluff!
World, World, I cannot get thee close enough!
Long have I known a glory in it all,
But never knew I this;
Here such a passion is
As stretcheth me apart,–Lord I do fear;
Thou'st made the world too beautiful this year;
My soul is all but out of me,–let fall
No burning leaf; prithee, let no bird call.
By Edna St. Vincent Millay
Almost overnight, our hills have been touched by a celestial paint brush. Although the foliage is not yet at its peak, the scarlet and orange maples have come into their own, gleaming beside the sunny yellow ones. The hills from a distance resemble a giant patchwork quilt, but a bright orange maple standing alone against October's blue sky has a breath taking beauty.
Many times I have wondered—if this earth we dwell in has so much loveliness, then what will heaven be like? Our finite minds could never take in the glories of heaven, if this earth's beauty overwhelms us so. The Bible is vague concerning the description of heaven—our mind and senses will have to be expanded to take it in. We know that glories do await the children of God.
We got a taste of the glories of autumn this week when daughter Patty took me and her three little granddaughters on a Mule (RV) ride. The middle one, Lainee, told me, "Oh, Mommaw, we are going on a "venture." It was an adventure all right—we ended up at Buzzard Rock.
This was once a popular place for folks to hike and explore. When I was young, it could be reached only by a path through the woods. There was no road, and the rocks loomed high and forbidding in the air. The only way to get on top was to climb through a narrow split in the rock, which was hair-raising to say the least.
The first trip I can remember was on that narrow path through the woods with Mom and Daddy and all the children. Daddy took our farm horse, Old Topsy, for the younger children to ride. I refused to ride anyway, as I had a fear that the horse was going to fall over sideways. We took a picnic lunch and all of us climbed up through the split.
I was scared to death that one of the little ones would fall off the sheer face of the cliff. I ran around like a mommy setting hen, trying to keep all her little chickens in one bunch. Daddy showed us where he had carved his and Mom's initials on the top of the rock when they were courting. Through the years, there were hundreds of names and initials carved there, many of which have been obscured by the passing of time and encroaching vegetation.
Now, there has been a road built all the way to the top, which can be reached by RV's and a lot of nerve. Patty parked the Mule and we prepared to walk across the top, which actually is a series of rocks with sheer drop-offs on each side. The derecho that ravaged our hills this summer had uprooted huge trees that lay across our pathway. The trees' root systems were so shallow by growing right on the surface of the rock that they were easily toppled over.
We climbed over, under and through huge tree trunks and branches. Adrianna, age seven, Lainee, age five and Maddax, age four, scampered nimbly through the tree limbs, followed by Minnie, my Jack Russell terrier. I bumbled along, all the while yelling at the girls to walk in the middle of the path. Minnie would rush up to a sheer cliff and peep over, while my heart was in my throat. I felt like I did when my siblings were little.
It was a breath-taking view from the top of the rock, with layers of mountains fading away into infinity. The rock isn't visited much anymore, but it is a natural site worth visiting—if you don't have a fear of heights. The girls thought it was a great 'venture.
We have some more feedback about the chinquapins. Marilee Bibb says that her chinquapin tree has many burrs on one branch, but only one nut per burr. Jack Clark of Cleveland, TN, grew up in Raleigh County and doesn't ever recall seeing a chinquapin burr with more than one nut in it. Could it be that there is more than one variety? The chinquapins that I remember had a fuzzy husk with a long tail—and one nut in it. Hope someone can enlighten us!
Our friend Don Norman makes pies from scratch! He baked a pie one time for a church dinner, and went to get a knife to cut it. When he came back, there were five women examining his pie. One of them asked, "Did you make this pie crust?" He answered innocently, "Why, yes, doesn't everyone?"
We have too many recipes to print in one column, so we'll have to space them out. Ray McCune wanted a recipe for salt-rising bread that didn't start with potatoes. This sounds like a good one. Be prepared though—the starter will have a distinctive odor when it starts working. My sister Susie started to make some salt-risin' bread one time, and it smelled so bad she threw it out!
For the starter:
One cup milk
½ cup cornmeal
One tablespoon white sugar
One teaspoon salt
Heat the milk, stir in sugar, cornmeal and salt. Place in a jar and put in a warm place (or in a crock pot) with hot water in it. Let it set overnight or until it begins to foam. You can hear the gas escaping when it has fermented enough. The bubbles may take as long as 24 hours to form. Do not continue until the starter foams. It will begin to smell like salt risin' as it ferments.
For the sponge:
Two cups warm water
Two cups all purpose flour
Two tablespoons white sugar
Three tablespoons shortening
½ teaspoon baking soda
One tablespoon warm water
Six cups all purpose flour
When the starter is bubbly, it is time to make the "sponge." Place the starter in a medium-size bowl. Stir in two cups warm water, two tablespoons sugar, the shortening, and two cups of flour. Beat thoroughly. Put the bowl in a warm place to maintain an even temperature of 105-115 degrees.(I put mine in a gas oven—the pilot light keeps it about the right temperature.) Cover and let rise until light and full of bubbles. This takes about 2 ½ to 3 hours.
Dissolve the baking soda in one tablespoon warm water and combine with the sponge. Stir 5 ½ cups flour into the sponge, kneading in more flour as needed. Knead dough for ten minutes or until smooth and manageable. Cut dough in three parts. Shape dough and place in three greased loaf pans. Place covered pans in a warm place until it rounds to the top of the pans.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees, bake for ten minutes, reduce temperature to 350 and bake for about 20 more minutes, until golden brown.
Happy Baking!

My 1 year old baby is frequently constipated. He drinks lots of water but he is still constipated.Can anyone suggests some foods that I can give my son to prevent constipation? I'm trying to potty train him but it's difficult because he 's already afraid that it might hurt when he defecates.
28th July 2012 08:02 PM #2
Hi Jackie,
Thanks for your question.
There is a thread you may find helpful about infant constipation here.
I know you say your son is 1 year but how many months is he? 1 year is generally quite young to potty train, especially if you have not used elimination communication with a young baby. You can start young if you use a patient and gentle technique but many parents choose to wait until there child is closer to 2.5 years old or even slightly older.
In terms of the constipation, when a baby/toddler is scared of pooing (because of previous pain they have experienced) it can get worse and worse as they try not to poo and then the poo becomes harder and so more painful to pass. Ways to help with this include: allowing your son to poo in the bath to relax him, lots of water, avoiding high fibre foods for now as in babies these actually absorb water from the food if the baby is not drinking lots of water, eating plenty of fresh fruit and veg but not bananas or carrots as these have been found to increase constipation.
I hope some of these ideas and those in the previous thread help.
Please do post back and let us know if we can help further and how you are getting on.
Best wishes,

Hi LJ,
Thanks for the suggestions that you have given, I'm trying to make it a habit that my son drinks lots of water. I'm also giving him fruits and veggies. I hope I change what he thinks about pain when he poops. If constipation happens what do you usually give your baby?
Best regards,

Hi Jackie,
I just responded to one of your other questions where you mentioned that your son is on an iron supplement.
Most full term healthy breastfed babies do not need supplementation with iron because the iron in breastmilk is plenty. And in this case, my guess it that the iron supplement is what is causing or contributing to the constipation.
If it were me, I would continue to breastfeed and stop the iron supplementation while increasing his nutrient intake through green smoothies. The greens in the smoothies can also help the bowels to move more often and the fruit will also help to loosen the stools.
A really loose stool will almost "slip out" without any pain. My concern is that if he already has dry, hard stool in the bowel, that this will be the hardest for him to pass.
You can try using a glycerine suppository (I had to do this once with one of my children) and this will make it a little easier for the hard stool to pass.
Once the hard stool is out, it will be much easier for your son to go if you start him on green smoothies now. Also, prune juice and prunes can be very helpful in getting things moving again.
Please see your other thread entitled Teeth Stained Due To Vitamins where I shared some green smoothie videos with you.
Looking forward to hearing whether you found this helpful or not.
Warm regards,

I second the notion that you should consider dropping the iron supplement. Additionally, I would increase fruits and vegetables, and maybe add some prune or apple juice to the baby's menu.
These ladies have some great links and info for you. I agree with them completely. Hope your bub is able to get some relief soon.

Jeff Wilson grew up watching his dad share moments with his friends and closest rivals. He remembers Larry Wilson sharing hugs and handshakes with fellow coaches after wins and losses. He remembers his dad and his peers going out for a bite to eat after games and discussing the game of football.
"It's kind of sad to see that generation of guys faze out a bit," said Jeff Wilson, the offensive coordinator at Herriman High School, who worked under his father for the last three seasons. "They were a different group of guys."
On Thursday afternoon, Larry Wilson announced his retirement from coaching after 40 years in an open letter posted on the Herriman Mustangs football Facebook page. Former Hunter coach and Granger offensive coordinator Dustin Pearce, who coached Herriman's defensive line in 2012, was named coach effective immediately.
The decision came after state officials informed him a year and a half ago that he and his son Jeff had violated a newly implemented State of Utah nepotism law. After searching for any alternatives and looking into a possible extension with the law, Wilson had a decision to make: by June 2014 either he or his son Jeff, both of whom teach at Herriman, would have to transfer schools.
"It's a state law. I respect that. I don't have any problems with the law," Larry Wilson said Friday afternoon. "It was a long, drawn out process, and there weren't many options. It became a matter of when."
Wilson made the decision to retire after consulting with his wife, Wendy, who is a sixth-grade teacher in the Granite School District. He said one of the biggest factors in his decision was setting up his family for retirement. Wilson teaches a college athletic prep class as well as physical education and driver's education at Herriman and plans on staying on the teaching staff ironically until June 2014.
After making his decision to hang up his whistle, Wilson said it came down to deciding when he would retire. He had the choice of walking away now or waiting until November later this year.
"The overriding factor has always been in the best interest of this program and this school, and that was probably the thing we looked at the most. It was always about [the players]," he said, stating that the decision to walk away now would be crucial for Pearce to piece together a staff as quickly as possible.
Up until now, Wilson was the first and only coach the Herriman Mustangs have had after opening its doors in 2010. The Mustangs had their best season in 2012, winning a share of the Region 7 crown and finishing 8-3. The program went 20-14 during Wilson's time at the helm.
For Pearce, following in the footsteps of a legend isn't as pressure-packed as one would think.
"I'm definitely doing what I love," he said. "This is a great community and a young program where I believe the sky is the limit."
Pearce said the hiring process "happened pretty fast," stating that when he was approached with the opportunity to succeed Wilson, he leapt.
Jeff Wilson will remain on the coaching staff at Herriman as the offensive coordinator and assistant head coach and had decided to take his name out of the hat of potential replacements for his father.
"Emotionally, it's a little bit tough," Jeff Wilson said, adding that he started the Herriman rugby team and still is the coach of that program. "One of the really important things I learned from my dad is it's important to have balance. I want to be fair to my family. Coaching is tough on a family. I love my wife and kids and want to be fair to them. I'm not in a hurry. I'm waiting for the right time."
He said the sting of deciding to not follow directly in his father's footsteps was eased a bit by the hiring of Pearce, who he called "a steal."
"I got to coach for the old man, which was incredible, and move on and coach for Dustin, who is going to be a great coach," Jeff Wilson said. "The program is not going to miss a beat."
Larry Wilson won't either.
He said he's ecstatic at the prospect of going golfing more and taking more vacations, but one thing is certain: the sidelines won't be the same without him.
"When you're a coach, you'll always have that yearning and missing the relationships with your players and coaches," he said. "I don't think that will ever go away."
Larry Wilson's career
• Coached at Murray, Highland and Herriman
• Was coach of the Mustang program since its inception in 2010
• Coached football at the high school and collegiate level for 40 years
• Was defensive line coach and recruiting coordinator under former Utah coach Jim Fassel
• Also coached baseball and softball at the high school level

Body liceLice - body; Pediculosis; Vagabond's disease
Body lice are tiny insects (Pediculus humanus corporis) that are spread through close contact with other people.
Two other types of lice are:
Body lice live in the seams and folds of clothing. They feed on human blood and lay their eggs and deposit waste matter on the skin and clothing.
- They can live in clothing for up to 1 month.
- Lice die within 5 - 7 days at room temperature if they fall off a person.
You can catch body lice if you come in direct contact with someone who has lice. You can also get lice from infected clothing, towels, or bedding.
Body lice are bigger than other types of lice.
You are more likely to get body lice if you do not bathe and wash your clothes oftenor live in close (overcrowded) conditions.Lice are unlikely to last if you:
- Bathe regularly
- Wash clothes and bedding at least once a week
Placing clothes in a hot dryer helps kill lice on clothing.
Lice causes severe itching. Itching is usually worse aroundthe waist, under the arms, and places where clothing is tighter and closer to the body (such as near bra straps).
You may have red bumps onyour skin. The bumps may scab or become crusty afterscratching.
Skin around the waist or groin may become thickened or change color if you have been infected with lice in that area for a long time.
Exams and Tests
Your doctor will look at your skin and clothing for signs of lice.
- Full-grown lice are the size of a sesame seed, have six legs, and are tan to grayish-white.
- Nits are lice eggs. They will most often be seen in the clothing of someone with lice, most commonly around the waist and in the armpits.
You should also be checked for head and public lice if you have body lice.
Body lice mainly live in clothing. To get rid of lice, destroy infected clothing or carefully wash itemsin hot water (at least 130 degrees F), then machine dry using a hot cycle.
Your doctor may also prescribe a creamthat youput on your skin or a wash that contains permethrin, malathione, or benzyl alcohol.
Bathing and washing clothes, bedding, and towels are most important steps in treating lice. Doing these things usually gets rid of the problem.
Outlook (Prognosis)
With effective treatment, the lice can be completely destroyed.
Possible Complications
Scratching can make your skin more likely to become infected. Rarely, lice may carry uncommon diseases, such as trench fever. Because body lice spreads easily to others, people you live with and sexual partners needto be treatedas well.
When to Contact a Medical Professional
Call your health care provider if you have lice in your clothing or itching that does not go away.
