Allergic rhinitis - what to ask your doctor - childWhat to ask your doctor about allergic rhinitis - child; Hay fever - what to ask your doctor - child; Allergies - what to ask your doctor - child
Allergies to pollen, dust mites, and animal dander are also called allergic rhinitis. Hay fever is another word often used for this problem. Symptoms are usually a watery, runny nose and itching in your eyes and nose.
Below are some questions you may want to ask your child's doctor or nurse to help you take care of your child's allergies.
What is my child allergic to? Will my child's symptoms be worse inside or outside? At what time of year will my child's symptoms feel worse?
Does my child need allergy tests? Does my child need allergy shots?
What sort of changes should I make around the home?
- Can we have a pet? In the house or outside? How about in the bedroom?
- Is it okay for anyone to smoke in the house? How about if my child is not in the house at the time?
- Is it okay for me to clean and vacuum when my child is in the house?
- Is it okay to have carpets in the house? What type of furniture is best to have?
- How do I get rid of dust and mold in the house? Do I need to cover my child's bed or pillows?
- Can my child have stuffed animals?
- How do I know if I have cockroaches? How do I get rid of them?
- Can I have a fire in my fireplace or wood burning stove?
Is my child taking their allergy medicines the right way?
- What drugs should my child be taking every day?
- Which drugs should my child take when their allergy symptoms get worse? Is it okay to use these drugs every day?
- Can I buy these medicines at the store myself, or do I need a prescription?
- What are the side effects of these medicines? For what side effects should I call the doctor?
- How will I know when my child's inhaler is getting empty? Is my child using the inhaler the right way? Is it safe for my child to be using an inhaler with corticosteroids in it? What are the long-term side effects?
Will my child have wheezing or asthma?
What shots or vaccinations does my child need?
How do I find out when smog or pollution is worse in our area?
What does my child's school or daycare need to know about allergies? How do I make sure my child can use the medicines at school?
Are there times when my child should avoid being outside?
Does my child need tests or treatments for allergies? What should I do when I know my child will be around something that makes their allergy symptoms worse?

CHICAGO -- The National Automatic Merchandising Association has named Fred Steiner of Imperial Coffee and Service Inc. (Toronto) its Coffee Legend for 2012.
The honor will be conferred during NAMA's 2012 Coffee, Tea & Water this month in New Orleans. Chairpersons Tara Burnaman and Kevin Shea will introduce the honoree at 4:15 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 13, during the annual conference's general session.
"Fred has been in the OCS business for 38 years, and has been recognized by his peers in the past for exemplary business practices and active community participation," said Roger Stewart, NAMA's Coffee and Water Service director.
Imperial Coffee and Services Inc. is the largest independently owned office coffee service and vending company in Canada, with 60 trucks and 125 employees. Its primary focus is on OCS, which represents approximately 75% of its total business; it also operates a water division.
The company operates six branches in Ontario servicing approximately 19,000 machines. Steiner was also a partner in South Florida's Park Avenue Office Services until it was sold to Aramark seven years ago.
Steiner attributes his success to "working very hard, being very lucky and having had the good fortune of meeting [Heritage Coffee founder] Stuart Daw, the first person selected by the National Coffee Service Association as a Coffee Legend, who became my friend and mentor." Imperial is still family-owned, he added -- "and when our customers speak, we listen."
Steiner, a past member of NCSA and current NAMA member, was instrumental in bringing an NCSA presence to Canada. He was a cofounder of the Ontario Coffee Service Association in 1992. His professional awards include NCSA's Regional Service Award (1985), the Silver Cup Award (1990 and 1992) and the NCSA Silver Service Award in 1992. NCSA merged into NAMA in 1999.
In 2000, Steiner was inducted into the National Beverage & Products Association's Coffee Service Hall of Fame, and in 2006, he received NBPA's Lifetime Achievement Award.

PHILADELPHIA – The National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) and Allstate Insurance Company today announced the 10 men's college basketball student-athletes named to the 2014 Allstate NABC Good Works Team®. In its second year, this preeminent community service honor recognizes college basketball players who have made a commitment to improving their communities and the lives of others.
Among the five men's basketball players named at the NCAA Division I level? University of Pennsylvania senior Dau Jok. He is joined on the team by Danny Berger (Utah State), Aaron Craft (Ohio State), Joe Harris (Virginia) and Jordan Morgan (Michigan).
Jok has been a four-year member of Penn's basketball program, and one of its captains each of the last two seasons. However, it is Jok's work off the court that has defined him here at Penn.
As founder and director of the Dut Jok Youth Foundation (www.dutjokyouthfoundation.org), Dau aims to fight poverty and violence in post-conflict South Sudan through access to sports and academics. In this position...
*Dau oversees a group of eleven volunteers that has helped raised $14,000; delivered sports equipment and school supplies to over 200 youth in three South Sudanese cities; paid two years of tuition for two South Sudanese high school students in Kenya.
*Manages and supervises foundation volunteers for youth empowerment organization in South Sudan.
*Designs the sports and leadership building curriculum for facilitators and coaches.
*Coordinates the delivery of sports equipment and donations to South Sudan.
The Dut Jok Youth Foundation was a 2011 Kathryn Davis 100 Projects for Peace Award recipient.
Jok is also Vice-Chair of Athletics for the Seniors For Penn Fund 2014 committee; Secretary of Youth for the Lakes States Community USA; member of the Sphinx Senior Honor Society and Onyx Senior Honor Society; member of Fellowship of Christian Athletes in Action; member of Umoja Student Coalition; member of Makuu Black Cultural Center on campus;
In the summer of 2011, Jok traveled to Rwanda with Penn Hillel, an experience he blogged about for ESPN.com along with teammate Zack Rosen. Last May,Jok traveled to Benin City, Nigeria with "We Play to Win" and was a Fellow at the Benin City 2013 Youth Development and Sports Camp.
On the court, Jok has played in all but one game this season. He has 17 points and 13 rebounds in 98 minutes of action.
The Allstate NABC Good Works Team® is comprised of 10 student-athletes, five from the NCAA® Division I and five from NCAA Divisions II, III and the NAIA. A total of 117 NABC nominees were submitted by sports information directors across the nation on behalf of their colleges and universities. The final team rosters were chosen by prestigious voting panels comprised of former coaches, student-athletes and media members. Former Duke University student-athlete, two-time NCAA champion and seven-time NBA All-Star Grant Hill headlines the Allstate NABC Good Works Team® voting panel.
"Allstate is proud to join the NABC and WBCA in recognizing college basketball players whose 'good works' align with our commitment to giving back to the communities where we live and work," said Pam Hollander, senior director of marketing for Allstate Insurance Company and a member of the 2014 NABC Good Works Team® selection panel. "These remarkable student-athletes serve as an inspiration to us all and another reason to celebrate those who contribute to the good in life."
While more often than not it's a player's performance on the court that is recognized, the Allstate NABC Good Works Team® shines a light on the positive impact these student-athletes have off the court and in their communities. The young men named to this year's team demonstrate the unique ability to balance academics with athletics while committing themselves to giving back to others. Among the impressive list of accolades this year's teams boast include lobbying state legislature for new laws that could help save lives, donating tuition money to students in third world countries and dedicating countless hours to mentoring underprivileged children.
Members of the Allstate NABC Good Works Team® will be invited by Allstate, an official corporate partner of the NCAA, to the 2014 NABC Convention and 2014 NCAA Men's Final Four® in North Texas, where they will participate in a community service project. Allstate is also an official corporate partner of the NABC.
"The young men selected to the 2014 NABC Good Works Team® amplify the significant contributions of all of the men's basketball student-athletes across America," said NABC Executive Director Jim Haney. "We are proud to partner with Allstate to celebrate them as outstanding role models and for the positive impact they have made in their communities, the nation and the world."
In addition to Hollander, Hill and Catchings, the 2014 Allstate NABC Good Works Teams® selection panel members include: former college basketball players Greg Anthony (UNLV), Mateen Cleaves (Michigan State) and Alana Beard (Duke); former head coaches Bobby Cremins (College of Charleston), Seth Greenberg (Virginia Tech), Marsha Sharp (Texas Tech) and Nell Fortner (Auburn); current college basketball coach Coquese Washington (Penn State); and media members Seth Davis (Sports Illustrated/CBS), Dana O'Neil (ESPN), Carolyn Peck (ESPN) and LaChina Robinson (ESPN/FOX).

text: The yearly cowboyszone tradition continues, a tradition like no other. Same as last year, pick who you think will win the first round matchups and in how many games. First round and first round only! One point per correct pick, plus a point for getting the amount of games the series lasts correctly. You must have picked the correct team to get that second point. So, for instance, if you have the clips in seven, and the grizzle win in seven, you don't get the bonus point. Anyway, good luck everyone.

Cash Mob to be held Friday in Old Town Eureka
A Cash Mob event will be held Friday in Eureka.
Friday at 5:30 p.m., people will gather at the gazebo in Old Town Eureka and walk to a local business to buy its products…products that are made in Humboldt County. The store the Cash Mob will visit is going to not going to be revealed until everyone is gathered together.
"We have lots of entrepreneurs here, probably more per capita than many other places in the United States and it's not straight forward and easy to build your business in Humboldt County," said Angeline Schwab, the Executive Director of Humboldt Made.
Humboldt Made is one of the organizations collaborating to put on Friday's Cash Mob, along with the Redwood Region Economic Development Commission and Fund Humboldt. Schwab says events like these go a long way for local stores.
"We want to help create jobs. It's a way the community can directly participate in that action," Schwab said.
A member of a Cash Mob last spring, Larry Goldberg, says local stores offer things you can't find anywhere else.
"The company we went to has products nobody else has. I want to support them. And I like the fact that we really could kind of mass purchase a bunch of equipment and supplies and really help them out with their business," Goldberg said.
"Humboldt county people, when they are making products, we have learned they often desire to make the very best product," said Schwab.
And the people who buy them, she says, take home more than just items…They receive a piece of Humboldt County.
People participating in Friday's Cash Mob in Old Town Eureka are encouraged to arrive at the gazebo at 5:15 p.m.
For more information on Friday's Cash Mob, or other upcoming Cash Mobs, call 388-3010 or search "Humboldt County Cash Mob" on Facebook.

25x'25 recognized that the drought has placed tremendous stress on farmers and ranchers across the country, as well as some of those industries that utilize farm and ranch commodities for processing into value added products. In particular, the Alliance understands the hardships being faced by livestock producers. However, according to multiple studies, a waiver of all or part of the RFS will not achieve the outcomes desired by the industries for which the waiver requests were filed.
In their comments, they expanded on their reasoning behind the decision to stand in support of the RFS. The RFS is not only the cornerstone policy in our nation's effort to reduce our dependence on foreign oil, but it is also an important tool for rural economic development, the stabilization of gasoline prices and for improvements in the nation's air quality. The EPA has issued a 15 day extension of the comment period on the requests for a waiver of the RFS. Written comments must be received on or before October 11, 2012.

Research Shows Ways to Speed Stroke Care
HealthDay Reporter
Latest Heart News
WEDNESDAY, April 23, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- Every minute counts for stroke victims who need clot-busting medications quickly to restore blood flow to their brain and prevent further damage.
Now, new efforts to hasten treatment in both ambulances and emergency rooms appear to have significantly improved patients' chances of survival and limited their long-term disability, according to a pair of studies in the April 23/30 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association.
A quality improvement initiative in hospital emergency departments significantly reduced the time it took for doctors to begin treatment of stroke patients with a clot-busting medication called tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), the first study found.
But a specialized ambulance equipped to start stroke treatment on the way to the hospital cut that time even more, according to another study in the same issue of the journal.
One expert, who wrote an editorial accompanying the findings, said the results were impressive.
"These are completely complementary strategies, and both of them should be implemented," said Dr. James Grotta, director of Stroke Research, Clinical Innovation & Research Institute at Memorial Hermann-Texas Medical Center in Houston. "We should be able with both to increase the number of patients completely recovering from their stroke."
National guidelines recommend that stroke patients eligible for tPA treatment start receiving the drug intravenously within an hour of arriving at the hospital. Unfortunately, fewer than one-third of patients receive it within that timeframe, researchers report in background information.
With that in mind, the American Heart Association launched the Target: Stroke initiative in 2010, arming participating hospitals with a to-do list intended to cut down on "door-to-needle" time for tPA treatment.
The initiative focused on rapid triage, quick turnaround on CT scans and lab tests, and improved ER access to intravenous tPA. Its motto: "Time lost is brain lost."
A study of 71,169 patients treated with tPA at 1,030 participating hospitals found that the Target: Stroke guidelines:
"We saw a very clear impact of the program in the speed at which tPA was delivered," said study author Dr. Gregg Fonarow, director of the Ahmanson-UCLA Cardiomyopathy Center, co-director of the UCLA Preventative Cardiology Program and associate chief of the UCLA Division of Cardiology. "It's rare that you see such a change in results before and after an initiative."
In the second study, a German research team in Berlin equipped an ambulance with a CT scanner, a laboratory and a telemedicine connection that would allow paramedics to consult with doctors and start tPA treatment on the road.
This ambulance allowed emergency workers to cut by 25 minutes the time it took for them to administer tPA to a patient, researchers report.
"This pre-hospital strategy has the potential to lop a bigger chunk of time off the time-to-treatment," Grotta said.
It's also much more expensive. A specialized stroke ambulance can cost about $1.4 million, the researchers reported.
"This is an interesting concept that could work, but the cost seems to be a prohibitive factor," said Dr. Robert Glatter, an emergency physician at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City.
But Grotta noted that such costs are relative. The CT scanner in the ambulance cost about $400,000, he said, and the average cost to treat a stroke is about $200,000.
"You only have to reverse two strokes to cover the cost of the CT scanner, and you're going to save more time than what we can do tweaking the emergency department," Grotta said.
Glatter said he is concerned that efforts to speed up tPA treatment could wind up giving the "potentially dangerous drug" to people who should not receive it.
"Measures that help cut transport time and get patients to qualified providers is really the most important aspect for taking care of these patients," he said. "That's ultimately what's going to be the most effective targeted approach to getting these patients treated."
A third study in the same issue of the journal indicates patient support for quick treatment with tPA.
More than three-fourths of seniors said they would want to receive clot-dissolving drugs if they were incapacitated by a stroke. About the same percentage said they would want CPR following a heart attack.
The results support doctors' use of tPA treatment even if the patient or their family are not able to sign off on it, the researchers argue.

Madonna fans may be over-analyzing her Instagram page. The Queen of Pop has been dropping hints about her new album all year using the photo-sharing site, but at least one of her teasers seems to have been premature.
Last month, EDM duo Disclosure became the latest of her rumored collaborators when she posted a series of photos with the boys when they were in New York for Governors Ball.
The duo tell Billboard there's no truth to the reports that they're involved in producing her next project. Howard says they didn't spend enough time with the superstar to take on such a task, but describes her as "very chill."

Data-At-Rest Tiger Team Wins Multiple Awards
July 3, 2008
Contact: Mike Collins (202) 501-1231
The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) and the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) today announced the Data-At-Rest Tiger Team (DARTT) has been recognized with several awards for superior performance and accomplishment.
The DARTT is a U.S. government interagency group responsible for Data-At-Rest (DAR) encryption policies and technology acquisition vehicles. DAR encryption products protect personally identifiable information (PII) and sensitive unclassified data stored on computers and removable storage media.
"Through DoD and GSA leadership of the DARTT, the U.S. government's efforts to protect sensitive and personally identifiable information has been strengthened and improved across the board," said John Johnson, GSA Office of Integrated Technology Services assistant commissioner.
The DARTT was recognized in January 2008 with the DoD Excellence in Information Assurance Award at the annual DoD Information Assurance Workshop. The award was presented by John Grimes, assistant secretary of defense for network integration and information/DoD chief information officer, and Robert Lentz, deputy assistant secretary of defense for information and identity assurance (DASD IIA).
The DARTT also received the 2008 Intergovernmental Government Solutions Award at the 28th Annual Management of Change Conference on June 9, 2008. The conference and award ceremony were sponsored by the American Council for Technology and the Industry Advisory Council. The DARTT was judged superior in the five qualifying categories:
- The programs are intergovernmental and collaborative;
- The programs demonstrate technology leadership and innovations;
- The programs demonstrate business transformation;
- The programs have measurable impact and results; and;
- The solution is available and can be replicated.
In addition, the Executive Alliance presented Lentz with its Mid-Atlantic Information Security Executive of the Year award at its conference/awards banquet on June 12, 2008.
"This award is an honor that reflects great credit to the team effort of the intergovernmental DARTT, the highly professional people working within the office of the DASD IIA, and the information assurance community across all levels of the U.S. government," said Lentz. "DoD supports intergovernmental, cooperative efforts like this, and we believe it represents a blueprint for future efforts."

Darwin's Powerpoint: 201111_scott_streaming
Following up on a brief Lunch 'n Learn presentation last December, Darwin Scott will devote a full session to the ins and outs of key proprietary streaming audio and visual electronic resources provided to the Princeton community by the University Library. Learn some tips 'n tricks on how to search these resources, make play lists and send streaming files to mobile devices, explore added text features, and much more. As in all things electronic these days, a lot has changed in a year!
Speaker bio:
Darwin Scott is the Music Librarian at Princeton's Arthur Mendel Music Library and is the subject liaison for the Music Department and the programs in dance and theater at the Lewis Center for the Arts. He holds a Ph.D. in musicology (specializing in medieval music) and an MLS from UCLA, where he worked in the music library for 16 years. He headed east in 1995 as the Creative Arts Librarian at Brandeis University (west of Boston) and grew into a thoroughly transplanted Yankee, fully functional with snow, New England driving, and dropped r's by the time he came to Princeton in April 2009. Darwin is an active member of the American Musicological Society (with wide interests in music), and back in the days when he had time to practice, was a competent oboe and recorder player.

The Guide to Ballsy, Bold, Indispensable Sweaters
Growing up in New York, Adam Kirsch used to rent old loft spaces and throw parties for his high-school friends — this, in the pre-Giuliani days, when that sort of thing was still possible. He went to college, expecting to be a doctor, but soon discovered nightlife was more his scene. So he moved back and opened the Blind Barber in 2010. Since then, there's been an old-school barbershop in front, which attracts some of the city's most stylish men. And, at night, a dark back parlor turns into the sort of bar that requires a doorman. This open-at-all-hours strategy has paid off: Soon, a second branch will open in Los Angeles, while the 25-year-old Kirsch spends his time turning his storefront business into a lifestyle brand. Headphones, candles, neckties, and other collaborations are in the works, as is further expansion. Wearing J Brand jeans, a Paul Smith sweater, Red Wing boots, and a shirt from What Goes Around Comes Around, Kirsch showed us the office (and objects) that help him accomplish all this work.

Broken Memories
A Memento Mori of Waikumete Cemetery
de Alex Whisman
Acerca del libro
This book is a photo-essay taken in the older sections of Waikumete (New Zealand's largest cemetery) where the graves have suffered from time, weather and vandalism. I look at these shattered and weed-encrusted graves. Memories erode like the headstones under years of winter storms. We move further from our past, from the great-great uncles and aunts. Families move away or are captured by daily schedules and the need to care for the living over the dead.
The electronic age has made us more mobile and has given us infinite distractions to fill our days. It is easy to get caught in the internet's fast pace and semblance of immortality.
Where does honoring the reminder of a loved one's passing fit in our lives in this electronic age of fast food and fast living.
Walk with me and look at some of these damaged graves. Pay homage to the memory of those who have gone before. Contemplate how precious each day of our life is. Think about family and friends who have gone before you. Take a walk and remember in this photographic essay about life and death.

I moved to New Zealand to be with my wife in 2001 and have had fun capturing the unique beauty that is Aotearoa. We are both into our photography. I shoot as Pinepig Studio and she as Spiritsdance Studio, together we are Pinedance Studios. I enjoy shooting a variety of subjects and hope to bring as much as I can of this beautiful country to family, friends and strangers. My main topic are landscapes, but I also focus on plants and flowers, antiques, patterns, textures and anything that draws my attention. My camera of choice is a Pentax K10D, which I've enjoyed using. Take a virtual trip through the wonders of this land in one of my books. All are set to full preview.

Alex Whisman Thank you Dun125 & Shutterpugs for your complements!
Fay Stout Cemeteries have always fascinated me... particularly the old cemeteries with headstones that are sometimes so worn that it is hard to read them or tumbling into disrepair. You have captured them well.
Makes me wonder if in the future we may be remembered in cyberspace rather than in local cemeteries. Your book has both sentimental as well as historic value. Bravo!

Best Uses
As an international book reader, I really needed something to help me look up the unknown words without loosing too much time. I liked to maintain the tone and figure out the words fast.I am happy with now. In spite of my early apprehensions, this device is pretty usable and it does the promised. I just believe, it is a little expensive and this technology must be cheaper. Apparently they have no strong competitor on the market.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Woke up this morning and knew I had to just get a glimpse of the ocean before heading into work. Weather conditions were almost identical 11 years ago, not to mention swell in the water. I remember seeing the smoke heading out to sea from a NW to SE direction as I looked NE up towards Long Island. I regret not picking up that case of Heineken and just handing out a cold one to random people off the local train stop that could have used one after the day they endured coming home from the city.

McKayla Maroney was put in a difficult situation over the weekend. Not only was her privacy violated when photos of her were leaked to the internet, but it turns out that the photos were also taken while she was under 18. The US gymnast initially denied the photos were her and within a short time after that more photos of her were released which she still denied were her. Then, yesterday, her lawyers sent off a bunch of letters to different websites, beginning with Reddit and said the photos of McKayla were taken when she was under 18 which would make them child pornography. The difficult situation for McKayla is that first of all I'm guessing she probably told her parents the pictures were fake and continued to stand by that story. When the additional photos were released that story probably did not hold up any longer and she told them the truth. Her second problem is that if she was under age when the photos were taken and she sent the to someone, then she would be guilty of distributing child pornography and the person who received them would be guilty of possessing child pornography because that person would presumably be aware that McKayla was under the age of 18. Even if McKayla didn't send the photos anywhere and even though they are of her own body, she could still potentially be prosecuted for possession of child pornography.
You might be saying to yourself that she won't be prosecuted for sending selfies but there are several states that have punished underage high school students for sending naked selfies of themselves and have especially cracked down when the recipient then forwarded the photos. Just last month a 17 year old teen was arrested in MD after he sent naked selfies that he had been forwarded by classmates he was dating in high school. As for all the people that downloaded the photos of McKayla, nothing will happen to them if they remove the photos because they didn't know she was under 18.

It's been a good year all round
Dec 02, 2011 Archaeology Awards 2012 6
Currently Senior Archaeologist for English Heritage, Tony Wilmott is one of the leading authorities on Hadrian's Wall and the amphitheatres of Roman Britain. Specialising in the Roman and Medieval periods, he has recently excavated at Birdoswald, Chester and Richborough. His work at Maryport, where he was site director, shed new light on the magnificent set of altars dedicated to the god Jupiter found there, and was reported in CA 259. Tony is also a member of the Institute for Archaeologists and Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries.
On receiving the award, Tony said the following:
'Thank you for nominating me — it was a bright spot at the end of a very difficult year during which English Heritage had funding cut by 32%. I'm accepting it on behalf of all people working in public service archaeology.
'My school history teacher first introduced me to Current Archaeology magazine and it was them that got me into archaeology in the first place. But how do you define "Archaeologist of the Year"? There are so many more people who are equally or more deserving of this award than me. Martin Carver was my mentor during my Birmingham University days and Mike Heyworth's radio interview with Councillor Melton was one of the highlights of my archaeological year. After being in fieldwork for over four decades I realise the importance of getting information out there — the difference is that excavation is particularly visible.'
Below are the other nominees in this category:
A former soldier who was inspired by the archaeological sites he saw while posted in Arabia, Martin Carver's fate was sealed when he became hooked on reading Antiquity — the journal which he now edits. After spending almost 4 decades in the field, Martin has worked on sites from early Medieval towns (1975-1985) to Sutton Hoo (1983-2005) to Portmahomack's Pictish monastery (1996-2007). He became the first secretary of the newly-formed Institute of Field Archaeologists in 1982, Professor of Archaeology at York University (where he was head of department for the next 10 years) in 1986, and was Vice-President of the Society of Antiquaries between 2002 and 2007.
Currently Director of the Council for British Archaeology, Mike Heyworth's interest in excavating began when he took part in a weekend dig at Old Down Farm, near Andover, aged 14. He joined the CBA over 20 years ago, working on the British and Irish Bibliography Service, and subsequently became the institution's first ever Information Officer. Today Mike is not only in charge of strategic objectives at the CBA, but is also a trustee of Heritage Link, chair of the Archaeology Training Forum and Secretary to the All Party Parliamentary Archaeology Group.

It's been a good year all round
Tony is a fine "young archaeologist,comparable with members of the old school,an absolute pleasure to work with,& totally deserving of the Award.
Mike Heyworth has played a crucial role in the recent defence of planning-based archaeology in Britain, as it comes under increasing pressure, and is made increasingly vulnerable by Tory -led cuts to local authority budgets, reductionds in support to English Heritage,and by inadequacies in the Draft National Planning Policy Framework. In particular, his clear and coherent media countering of the arguement against archaeology as a material consideration in local planning, made by Cllr Alan Melton (Fenland District Council, Cambs.) in 2011 is, in itself, deserving of this award.
Tony Wilmott for his excavations at Richborough, Kent and his subsequent public talk to the public and to Society members who helped with pot washing etc., despite being very busy up at Hadrian's Wall.
I vote for Indiana Jones.

WICHITA, KS -- The combined Wichita Vending and Wichita Canteen have a new name -- Premier Food Service. Wichita Vending became part of Compass Group's Canteen Vending franchise when it purchased Wichita Canteen a year ago. The company had been owned by the Grady family since 1959.
Wichita Vending owner and president Joe Hemmelgarn said at the time that he planned to change the company's name once the two businesses were integrated.
Hemmelgarn told local news outlets that the new Premier Food Service name carries over from Wichita Canteen's foodservice division, and helps emphasize that part of its business, which is a focus of his growth strategy. Wichita Vending, has been providing vending, office coffee and pure water service and contract foodservice for the past 20 years.

Law enforcement in the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia is the responsibility of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Headquartered in Skopje and headed by a Government-appointed Director for a four-year mandate, the Ministry's Bureau for Public Security runs the national police force. It is responsible for:
- Protecting the freedom and rights of its citizens;
- Ensuring law and order;
- Preventing, detecting and investigating crime;
- Regulating and controlling traffic;
- Controlling migration and residence of foreigners;
- Providing state border security and crossing control;
INTERPOL Skopje
The National Central Bureau (NCB) for the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia is made up of more than 10 staff and structured around the following crime areas:
- Public safety and terrorism;
- Organized crime;
- Drugs and weapons;
- Financial and high-tech crime,
- Trafficking in human beings;

To strengthen national security, INTERPOL Skopje has arranged for the Organized Crime Department (OCD) to have direct access to INTERPOL's range of criminal databases (the OCD comprises several units, including financial crime, violent crime, trafficking in human beings, drugs and weapons, forensics). Access has also been granted to regional sections that deal with migration issues, and to national border crossing points. There are plans to continue expanding access to INTERPOL databases to law enforcement units across the country.

THE star of one of Australia's most watched television shows, Robert Hughes, sat in the dock of a Sydney court on Thursday facing 11 child sex charges that date back to the 1980s.
His solicitor, Greg Walsh, said outside the court that Mr Hughes, 64, denied ''each and every one of the allegations'' against him. His celebrity agent wife, Robyn Gardiner, who was at Sydney's Central Local Court, is standing by him as he contests the charges.
The 11 offences relate to five girls aged between seven to 15 years at the time of the alleged abuse, which coincided with the actor's lead role as Martin Kelly in Hey Dad.!
The abuse is alleged to have taken place in Sydney's northern suburbs.
Mr Hughes was not required to enter a plea when he made a brief appearance before Magistrate Julie Huber, who granted the actor strict conditional bail following his offer of $50,000 as surety.
He also must also report to police three times a week, forfeit his passport and live at the one address - a serviced apartment in the central business district.
Mr Hughes's court appearance came only hours after he arrived back in Sydney under police escort having been extradited from London following his arrest in August. He was taken from the airport to Surry Hills police station where he exercised his right not to be interviewed by detectives before he was formally charged.
Mr Walsh said it was a relief that his client had been granted bail but said he expected that given the public interest in his case, his client would spend most of his time confined to his inner-city dwellings.
''It's going to be very difficult for him. He'll be residing in a room not much bigger than a cell,'' Mr Walsh said. ''I don't think he'll be leaving his room except to go and report to police. It's a very difficult life for him.''
Mr Walsh said Mr Hughes had been interviewed by detectives at Chatswood over the allegations years ago and had strenuously denied any wrongdoing.
The evidence amassed against his client was extensive, he said, but there would be difficulties in the case for both sides with the allegations dating back almost three decades.
Mr Walsh said Ms Gardiner had flown back from London this week to support her husband adding that the pair are ''very close and have a loving relationship''.
The charges yesterday followed a two and half year investigation by NSW police's sex crime squad who interviewed more than 200 people as part of their inquiries.
Head of the sex crime squad, Detective Superintendent John Kerlatec, said police did not expect to lay any further charges than the 11 in relation to these alleged victims.
''All the [alleged] victims have been contacted. They are pleased with the progress to this stage,'' Detective Superintendent Kerlatec said.
''We still have a long way to go, we are focused on the victims and allowing them to have their say in court but also we must remember the accused has the right to defend these matters.''
He did however not rule out the possibility that more alleged victims could come forward.
The case returns to court on January 29.

The herb Echinacea purpurea is one of the best known and widely available herbal cold treatments. Recent study results have been negative, but its effectiveness may vary depending on the preparation. Two studies funded by the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine found no benefit from echinacea in a juice formulation or in an unrefined combination of root and herb. However, David Leopold, MD, recommends mixing 15 to 20 drops of an echinacea tincture with warm water four or five times a day (or as directed on the bottle).
"It tends to be a little more potent than pills," says Dr. Leopold, who is the director of integrative medical education at the Scripps Center for Integrative Medicine and a faculty member with the Scripps Natural Supplement Conference, in La Jolla, Calif.

There may be even less evidence for the efficacy of goldenseal, an herb that Bob Martin, a 60-year-old teacher from Placitas, N.M., swears by. He takes it and echinacea three times a day at the first sign of a cold. He only gets sick if he doesn't dose himself in time.
"Goldenseal hasn't been studied as much but I don't think that there's any inherent problem to using it as long as somebody doesn't have an allergy to it," Dr. Leopold says.

Although this Asian herb is taken mainly to boost energy, stamina, and overall health, researchers have begun to examine its efficacy in fighting the common cold. A 2005 study conducted by Canadian researchers found that taking ginseng every day reduced the severity and duration of cold symptoms, and appeared to prevent colds as well.

Nasal rinsing
Long popular with the holistic crowd, daily rinsing is thought to fend off cough, sniffles, and sore throat. A 2008 study found that children who rinsed with a saline nasal wash six times a day had an improvement in cold symptoms and fewer recurrences. However, a 2009 study published in Annals of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology found that daily rinsing may deplete the nose of protective mucus, and up your risk of getting a cold and other infections. If you do decide to use a neti pot don't use tap water! Due to rare brain infections, the FDA warns that it's best to use distilled or sterile water, or boil water for 3 to 5 minutes and then cool before using.

Pelargonium sidoides
Though less well-known than some other herbal cold remedies, extracts derived from this plant have been shown to decrease the symptoms of acute bronchitis. One study, published in the journal Phytomedicine in 2003, examined 468 adults with acute bronchitis lasting less than two days who were given either placebo or an extract of the roots of Pelargonium sidoides; those in the latter group were told to take 30 drops three times a day for a week.
The treated patients saw quicker resolution of symptoms including pain during cough and fever, and were able to return to work in an average of 4.7 days (compared to 6.3 days for placebo).

Vitamin C
Vitamin C may be the most studied of the available alternative remedies. Again, study results have been mixed, but experts seem to more strongly support vitamin C than other remedies. Even the purported benefits of Airborne may have more to do with its vitamin content than other ingredients.
"There's nothing intrinsically wrong or right with the product," says Steve Gardner, litigation director for the Center for Science in the Public Interest. "It's an extraordinarily expensive vitamin-C delivery system. If there's any benefit, it may be from the vitamin C, which for some people might reduce the severity or duration of a cold, but won't prevent one."
The recommended everyday intake is 75 milligrams per day for adult women and 90 milligrams per day for adult men. Dr. Leopold recommends that people with colds take a gram or so of vitamin C several times a day, depending on what other medical conditions they may have.

A 1996 study found that zinc lozenges reduced the duration of the common cold from 7.6 days to 4.4 days. Other studies have been mixed but doctors do sometimes recommend the supplement.
However, there may be some risk to Zicam Cold Remedy products. In 2006, the manufacturer of the zinc spray paid $12 million to settle 340 lawsuits from consumers who claimed to have lost their sense of smell after using the product. And in June 2009, the FDA warned consumers to stop using three Zicam products due to the risk of a loss of the sense of smell.

Are herbal remedies safe?
The good news is that, in general, most of these compounds won't hurt you, says Dr. Campbell (although it can't hurt to check with your doctor).
And there may be another upside to herbal supplements. "I believe that most of the over-the-counter products just mask symptoms, which is great to get you through the day," Dr. Leopold says. "But a lot of the oral supplements are working more with the body, maybe stimulating the immune system and also helping the body to heal."
"I don't recommend that any of my patients take any of this stuff every day, but as soon as they have a little runny nose and a scratchy throat, they should hit it hard," he adds. "Err on the side of caution."

text: Apparently the allergic reaction Miley Cyrus suffered last month is still making her sick. Yesterday Miley's people announced she would be canceling the first few shows of the European leg of her tour. Her doctor's told her she is not well enough to travel. I guess that means if she is not well enough to get on a plane to Europe then she is not well enough to perform either. The May 6 show in London is still scheduled to take place. Doesn't she need to rehearse? When is that going to take place? The whole thing seems kind of strange. She can't travel because she is too sick. That means she is probably not rehearsing either but suddenly in five days everything will be fine and she will be ready to go? She was originally hospitalized on April 15 so May 6 would be 21 days. Not quite long enough for a 30 day rehab period. I wonder if that London show will get postponed to a later date and Miley isn't actually performing until after the 15th of this month.

Holder: I'm Not Sure How Often We Spy on Journalists
(NEWSER) – The Justice Department's secret subpoena of AP phone records might not have been a one-time occurrence. Eric Holder tells NPR that he has no idea how many times he'd allowed the department to snoop on journalists. "I'm not sure how many of those cases … I have actually signed off on," he said. "I know that I have refused to sign a few [and] pushed a few back for modifications." Holder also wouldn't promise to review the policy allowing such record seizures.

EVERETT — The Everett Silvertips weren't going to go out like that.
Everett pulled off another stunning upset when the Tips defeated the Portland Winterhawks 3-2 Saturday night in Game 5 of their first-round WHL playoff series, keeping their season alive.
It all seemed academic after eighth-seeded Everett was thrashed by the top-seeded and heavily-favored Winterhawks 11-4 in Friday's Game 4 in Everett, giving Portland a 3-1 lead in the best-of-seven series. Game 5 in Portland seemed destined to be 60 minutes followed by a handshake line.
But Everett bounced back from Friday's humiliation in a way few expected.
"(Game 4) didn't go the way we planned, things got out of hand," said goaltender Austin Lotz, who made 43 saves in Game 5 to backstop Everett's victory. "We wanted to regroup and show we still could compete with this team. People were doubting us and we wanted to win to prove ourselves."
Everett built a 3-0 lead through two periods on goals by Joshua Winquist, Logan Aasman and Reid Petryk. Portland had more of the puck, outshooting Everett 32-13. But Everett bore down in its own zone, Lotz made saves, and the Tips proved opportunistic at the other end.
"I thought we went back to playing our game," Lotz said. "The previous two games we got goaded into playing their game and got away from keeping it simple. Last night we kept it simple, played hard and played Silvertip hockey.
"My teammates made it pretty easy for me," Lotz added. "Portland had more shots than in the previous games, but less scoring opportunities. Guys did a great job of keeping them outside and blocking shots, and we didn't take a lot of penalties."
The Tips did get into a little penalty trouble in the third period, with Portland scoring twice on the power play to pull within one. Then in the waning seconds the Winterhawks had one final chance, but the puck somehow stayed out just before the final horn sounded.
"The puck came from behind the net and I had to avoid it, otherwise it would have banked in," Lotz recalled about the sequence. "It went through my legs and right to (Ty) Rattie. Some people said he hit the post, some say it hit my skate. It's hard to tell on the replay."
Everett's two victories in the first five games of the series are one more than the Tips had in their 10-game season series with the Winterhawks. They're two more than Everett managed in the playoffs the past two years, when the Tips were twice swept in the first round.
Despite Saturday's victory, Everett still finds itself in a do-or-die situation. The Tips trail the series 3-2, meaning Everett needs another unexpected victory tonight in Game 6 in Everett. The two previous games played at Comcast Arena in the series were ugly for the Tips as Portland has outscored Everett 18-7. Things became particularly contentious in the third period of Game 4, with the teams trading a lot of both physical and verbal blows. Therefore, the Tips have to solve their issues at home.
"We just can't fall into all the stuff after the whistle," Lotz said. "We have to keep things clean and be mentally strong, because they have a lot of agitators on their team. They also have a lot of skill, so we can't get into a run-and-gun game. We have to slow them down, play good defense, then let the offense take care of itself."
And if the Tips can pull it all off, perhaps they'll be able to force a Game 7 no one was expecting.

Head on crash injures five people
Preliminary investigation indicates on July 21, 2013 at approximately 9:15 a.m., a 1990 Subaru Legacy four-door driven by Samuel Kitto, age 19, from Astoria, was westbound on Highway 26 near milepost 8. For an unconfirmed reason, the Subaru traveled across the centerline where an approaching eastbound 2006 Toyota Corolla driven by Karen Anderson, age 27, from Eugene, took evasive action to the right. Both vehicles collided head-on near the eastbound lane fog line.
Anderson received minor injuries. Her passenger received serious injuries. Both were transported to Columbia Memorial Hospital in Astoria. They were using safety restraints and airbags that deployed.
Kitto received serious injuries. He was initially transported to Columbia Memorial Hospital and then transferred to Legacy Emanuel Medical Center.
Three passengers in the Subaru were also seriously injured. The passengers were taken directly or transferred to Portland-area hospitals.

What's big and thick and headed to newsstands now? That's right, early copies of SURFER's much-anticipated Big Issue arrived in our offices on the first day of summer, which means they'll be on newsstands and in the mailboxes of subscribers any day now.
We sent Assistant Photo Editor JP Van Swae to St. Cloud, Minnesota, on a four-day press check to make sure the beast of an issue came out with just the right mixture of magenta, cyan, yellow, and black. Our major concern was the cover image—a delicate "speed blur" that required just the right care on press to ensure it maintained its specialness.
"It was actually totally exhausting," JP said when he got back to the offices with bags under his eyes and proofs of the cover hidden deep in his backpack. "You're constantly on call for the press, so you just spend your time eating, waiting, checking test pages, and sleeping."
We aren't showing you the cover yet, because we don't want to spoil the mailbox surprise reaction, but we thought we'd share some photos JP snapped of the printing process.

Yes he did... I'll try and find the information...
Henderson doesn't deserve a shot even if he wins. Whatever the outcome I think a fight with Bisping makes perfect sense and could be a make or break for both fighters as in if Bisping wins he gets a title shot and if he loses he accepts he will never be champion.
Retired 2k and out.
nice one. i suppose it makes sense in a way.
'Go read a fucking book, you piece of shit.'
Retired 2k and out.
^ Even that makes no sense whatsoever... Vitor is leagues in front of Bisping in terms of title shots!!!
Why should Hendo have to beat him and then Bisping. He got lucky?... Henderson was winning the fight without having knocked Bisping into the next century. That was the biggest KO in UFC history imo... If Mike could see it coming... He would have seen that one!
Just accept it.. Henderson is better and always will better than Bisping will ever be.

Kimi Räikkönen bagged his second podium on the trot in Barcelona, charging hard to finish third behind first time grand prix winner Pastor Maldonado and, by just half a second, Fernando Alonso.
The Finn was disappointed not to finish on the top step, though, claiming that the Lotus E20 had the potential to have won every race this year so far. Nevertheless, he is now fourth in the Drivers' Championship, just 12 points behind leaders Sebastian Vettel and Fernando Alonso.
Starting on the second row behind team-mate Romain Grosjean, he passed the Frenchman at the start. He held third till the second round of stops, and when Alonso pitted from the lead on Lap 45 the Iceman enjoyed two laps at the front, before being passed by the resurgent Maldonado. Struggling with degradation, he was soon holding up Alonso before pitting for late rubber on Lap 49 and then setting off on a final sprint on fresh rubber. As the laps counted down he slashed the gap to Alonso by a couple of seconds a lap while the Spaniard struggled with grip. He entered the final of 66 laps 2.3 seconds behind the Ferrari and screamed across the line just 0.6 adrift.
"I had a good start," said Kimi, "but I hit the rev limiter and couldn't take the other two, and then we fell back too far in the middle stint. By pitting late the third time I had a lot of speed for the finish and, given one more lap, I probably could have overtaken Fernando, but that's easy to say afterwards."
Romain took the chequered flag just ten seconds behind his team-mate, securing fourth place. He had lost several positions at the start, and lost a bit of front wing to Bruno Senna which didn't help matters, but he recovered to score 12 points.
"Both cars finishing strongly in the points is great for the team," reflected Romain. "It was pretty difficult for me at the start of the race as it was hard to get the front working properly with the wing damaged, but we made some changes and at the end of the race the car was really flying."
Currently sitting third, the team now moves within 14 points of McLaren and 25 behind leaders Red Bull Racing in the Constructors Championship.
Romain Grosjean: "When you get one [podium], you want more. That's for sure!"
Éric Boullier: "It's nice to fight at the front and nice to battle with the big names like Red Bull and McLaren."
Kimi Räikkönen : "I needed a few more laps to maybe fight for first place, but that's racing. At least we scored some good points for the team, and we're going in the right direction."
Lotus ambassador and double world champion Emerson Fittipaldi looks back on the Spanish Grand Prix and ahead to Monaco…
A strong points finish for Lotus in Barcelona, with Kimi Räikkönen third and Romain Grosjean fourth. Afterwards, though, Kimi seemed a bit disappointed. Do you think he could have won?
Of course he had the speed to win. He was catching the leaders at the end by two seconds a lap. So it's disappointing the race wasn't a couple of laps longer. With a different strategy, perhaps he could have got ahead.
In five rounds, the Lotus E20 looks to have been the most consistently fast car. Is it a surprise, therefore, that it hasn't won yet?
I believe the Lotus will be the only consistently fast car at all the different tracks this season. They're the surprise of the season, but winning is a process, it will happen sooner or later.
What does the team need to do to seize these elusive wins?
All the team needs to do is keep doing exactly what it is doing, and it will come.
Lotus are third in the championship, which is incredibly tight this year. If they can keep scoring like in Spain and Bahrain, can you see them challenging for the title?
I think that Lotus is at a point now where we can say it is challenging for the title. A race win will solidify this status.
Next up is Monaco, a track you know very well of course. What can the drivers expect heading to this very unique circuit?
Monaco is all about qualifying. Kimi could do very well there, and start up at the front. I can see him doing just that. Romain has shown to be very fast in qualifying and could do it too.
