Allowinghomosexuals to serve in the military was not a high priority for Clinton,nor theleaders ofthe gay community. Nevertheless, ithas be-come a topic of controversy.

Brad Wild,65, who served as the Dean of Optometry for the past seven years, said he willretire when his successor is found and after the successor has had a chance to become comfortable with the system. Wildsaid he has no objection to aUABmandate that requires deans toretire a age 65, which he was aware of when he arrived in 1986. Wild said he does not feel a dean should stay on indefinitely, claiming that a new dean brings in a new enthusiasm to the job. "In Canada," Wild said, "a dean can only serve a maximum of six years." Although he is stepping down as dean, he willstay at UABand continue to teach, research developments in the area ofoptics, and commit tointernational education. Wildsaid he is extremely proud of notonly what he has accomplished, but what the School of Optometry has accomplished since its beginning less than 25 years ago.

Right now, there arc stillmany unknown factors with which to deal. Militaryhomosexual ban is to be lifted With the inauguration ofa new president, many issues —some old, some new—are inthe limelight,one ofwhichis gays being openly allowed inthe military. Notice the word, "openly." Yes, there are homosexuals now serving, and dying, forour country. This issue has strong opponents. Just as strong are the proponents of the military ban on homosexuals. How will this affect the ROTC programs on our campus and other campuses around the nation? Some recruiters say they are waiting to see the directive inblack and white. Others say they are already beginning to followthe intent of the directive which willbecome effective insix months. One oftlje major rules ofmilitary service is following the directives of the commander-in-chief, the president. This does not mean that the soldiers agree witheverything that is set forth. 4 Kaleidoscope /Tuesday, Ffebuary 2, 1993 clitorials Tuscaloosa. It is time for UAB students, faculty and alumni to demand equal representation on the Board ofTrustees. The AuburnFamily would not stand for its board to consist ofpredomi-nantly Alabama alumni. UABshould not either. But after all,you are a second-claqs student You would notknow about such things. Stephen L.Herlihy can build the KirklinClinic,and something new onevery one ofits 70blocks, then surely the money is there to build things its students and this city could use. Ofcourse, you shouldn't expect the Board of Trustees to approve anything that mightdraw students away from the mother campus in ond class status Inmy opinion, the questioning of Trustees, or a President, or members of the faculty by students or other faculty is tobe expected. However,Ifeel that itis inappropriate and irresponsible to make statements about indi-viduals without documentation of the facts. The Board of Trustees gives long hours of service to the institutions inthe University of Alabama System for which they receive no salary; and, in this role, render a great public service. The Board may notalways support allofour requests and at times we may have opposing points of view; however,Ido consider them our advocates and not our adversaries. When these individuals are, accused of unsubstantiated and unfounded actions,Ifeel the record should be set straight. Charles A.McCallum, D.M.D.,M.D. President and Mr.Prank Bromberg. Iam unaware of their contributions toBir-mingham- Southern or Samford University, and itis notmyresponsibility toinquire as to the amount ofmoney, ifany, they have given to those two educational institutions or any other educational institution. However,Ican state unequivocally that Mr.Drummond is a strong supporter ofUAB. He has attended basketball games and many other functions on this campus. Mr. Drummond has provided significant finan-cial support to the University of Alabama at Birmingham. In addition other members of his family have been most generous to this institution. Ican also state that Mr. Bromberg and his family have given a considerable amount of money to this institution,and Mr.Bromberg has attended our football games and visits this campus frequently. of the things students at other institutions in the state take for granted. You do not deserve additional on-campus housing, nor do you deserve additional park-inglots. As a second-class student, you do not deserve to have any of the luxuries that stu-dents at other Alabama Universities are al-lowed to enjoy. Your Board of Trustees tells you so. Ifitwere not for the persistence ofsuch great presidents as S. Richardson Hilland Charles A.McCallum, you likely would not have the few "traditional"activities you currently have; a brilliant student center to walk through, a magnificent UAB Arena in which to watch basketball games, to name a couple. But there could be so much more. IfUAB Pay attention, UAB students, to what is going on around you. Open your eyes and see how you are being treated as a second-class student who attends a second-class institu-tion. You attend the third-largest institution in Alabama, one that brings millions of dollars to the state and brings much prestige to our city. UABhas sent a man to the far reaches of the solar system, produced a Pulitzer Prize win-ner, made incredible advance* in medicine that have gained world-wide respect, and is the largest employer inthe state. But you attend a second-class institution. You are a second-class student Your Board of Trustees says you are not worthy ofmany Students deserve more than sec toUAB.

Baseball team to get new lights at Young Field wrong with 'Stamp'? who went through a similar phase as a senior. Steve Mitchell,UAB's all-time leading scorer, struggled during a critical part of his senior year when the eyes of the NBA turned on him. Mitchell is now a graduate assistant on ilief staff after having played several years of profes-sional basketball inEurope. Perhaps he can help Jackson regain his touch. SHOWDOWN OF LEADERS: Marquette and Cincinnati have emerged as the class ofthe GMC. Marquette is 15-2, 4-0 inGMC play, while the Bearcats are 15-1, 4-0, after destroying DePaul by 26 points Saturday in a game tele-vised by ESPN. Marquette and Cincinnati meet Feb. 10 in Cincinnati. The winner gets the inside track to the regular-season title. STREAKIN':Cincinnati carried the nation's longest win streak into a Monday night game against Miami (Ohio). Assuming the Bearcats won that game and beat Austin Peay Wednesday, they'll bring a 14-game winstreak to Memphis State next Saturday. Baftow What is lightS. ;'• searches for answers: "It makes us a more complete program. Itwillhelp us withsched-uling and help us move up and take a place with the traditional baseball schools." The addition of lights is expected to increase attendance, Rancont said. UAB will play 16 home games at night this season. During night games, the Blazers expect todraw the workand school group they missed inprevious sea-sons. "Thisis as much forBirmingham as it is for UAB,"said Rancont, who led theBlazers to43 wins and the Great Midwest Conference championship last season. "In the past, a lot ofpeople couldn't come toa2o'clockgame, but they might be able to leave work at fiveand come out to a game at six. Hope-fully, people willcome outto watch us on those warm spring nights.". Night baseball is also beneficial for the players. The Blazers had topractice inthe early afternoon during daylight in previous seasons. Now practices willbe held in the late afternoon. This willenable players to take as late as the 1p.m.-3:05 p.m. classes "This is a big plus for our kids," said assistant coach Jim Case. Now,ifthe Blazers can just light up the Scoreboard like they will lightup the skyline. 8 Kaleidoscope /Tuesday, February 2, 4993 This spring, the UABbaseball team willlightup the night Liter-ally.

Bartow said Jackson's high-flying game is better suited for a run-and-gun offense. But poor shooting in recent weeks has forced the coaching staff to slow down the pace. Jackson has visibly struggled with the notion of ball-control offense. There is also the pressure factor. Jackson is being closely watched byNBAscouts. There is also the pressure of being a senior leader ona struggling team. Bartow said Jackson may be trying to do too much. And when the shots stopped falling like they fellinDecember, Jackson may have lost some confidence. Bartow recalled another Blazer ByROD FRIDAY Reporter Itis the question' that has been puzzling theUABcoaching staff for almost a month. What is wrong with senior guard Stanley Jackson? Before the Christmas break, Jackson was rivaling Memphis State star Anfemee Hardaway for conference player of the year v honors. The 6-3 senior from Valley was averaging better than 22 points per game, and appeared to have developed into a solidNBA prospect. Ithas been a different story since the calendar turned to 1993. His average has dipped to 17 a game, with a six-point effort against Cincinnati, and a four-point showing at Memphis State. He hitrock bottom with an O-for- 9 shooting performance Saturday ina loss toMemphis State inUAB Arena. Itmarked the first time in 80 games that Jackson had failed to score. Blazer coach Gene Bartow said he believes Jackson's struggles result from a combination of things.

Probably the second most requested livery for the Terriers (after the original Stroudley "Green") is the standard British Railways Mixed Traffic Black.
14 of the 50 Terriers built were still in use and were transferred to BR in 1948. They carried on working hard even though they were over 70 years old and continued their old Southern Railway duties on the Isle of Wight railway and the Hayling Island branch line.
A single A1 variant made it into BR service, No. 54 "Waddon". In 1962 this engine was later preserved and shipped to the Delson Museum in Canada where it remains to this day.
13 A1X Terriers became part of BR, carrying the "Cycling Lion" emblem.
And 10 of these were still working in 1956 when BR changed to the "Ferret and dartboard" design.
Common to engines under British Railways they were given little care or cosmetic attention, especially towards the end of steam, and so we have provided both A1 and A1X in a very worn condition, again with the option of both emblems.
As with every A1X Terrier you can select any of the optional parts, all textured to match, and above you can see some different bunkers, chimneys, an optional toolbox on the top of the boiler and also the spark arrestor which was used on the Hayling Island branch to protect the wooden bridge.
We have one more livery to reveal for this pack next week and we hope to have a release date for it soon as well.

LB&SCR A1/A1X Terriers: Later Years Pack, Livery 3
Just a quick one today, showing the very fetching blue with red lined livery of the K&ESR. Also note the unique bunker modification which was extended straight up (rather then Isle of Wight style rear extension) and given right angle corners. It also has a set of optional matching rails that are angular rather than the more common rounded versions seen on the original bunkers. These are available on all liveries but were really only used on the K&ESR version.
And the A1 variant as well.
As with all of the Terriers from any of the packs you can give them any name and number you wish using the scenario editor.
Next week we'll have a long look at the the most requested livery - British Railways black.

LB&SCR A1/A1X Terriers: Later Years Pack, Livery 2
The second entry for this pack is one of the most requested liveries, although to those who are unaware of it it may be the most surprising. Less surprisingly, it's one of favourites!
Last week we looked at the two Terriers of the Weston, Clevedon & Portishead Railway. Upon it's closure in 1940 the WC&PR line and all of its stock were taken over by the Great Western Railway and No. 2 and No. 4 were no exception.
Both engines were initially allocated to St Philip's Marsh and were used for shunting and harbour duties. Painted in GWR livery, with No. 2 "Portishead" becoming No. 5 (and retaining it's name and nameplate) and No. 4 becoming No. 6, both fitted with the standard GWR cab side numberplate with just a single digit.
In 1941 both engines were used to shunt at Portishead power station and also the US Army depot at Wapley Common.
In 1943 No. 6 was used to remove track from the old WC&PR and was then sent to Nottingham but being rarely used it was sent back to Bristol and was finally scrapped in 1948.
No 5. "Portishead" survived through 1948 and became a part of British Railways and in 1950, still in GWR livery, she did a short time as a shed pilot at Newton Abbot before being put into storage at Swindon. Unfortunately attempts to preserve her failed and in March 1954 she was broken up.
Although we don't think either engine ran as an A1 under the GWR we've still created these versions for the sake of completeness.
Next week.. more Terriers!

LB&SCR A1/A1X Terriers: Later Years Pack, Livery 1
As we hinted at previously there is going to be another Terriers livery pack, this one entitled "The Later Years", and we'll be showing the contents over the next week or two.
Today we're looking at 2 Terriers that were purchased for the Weston, Clevedon & Portishead Railway, made famous by the eccentric Colonel H F Stephens, which was a branch line connected to the GWR. It's a fascinating line and well worth reading about.
Known as the WC&P Railway there is a story told of a lady who clouted a helpful GWR Stationmaster over the head with her umbrella after she asked for the train to Clevedon and misheard his reply as a suggestion to "go over to the WC and pee!"
Note: WC is an abbreviation of water closet, meaning toilet.
The 2 Terriers on the WC&PR were No. 43 "Gipsyhill" and No. 53 "Ashtead", purchased from the Southern Railway in 1925 and 1935 and numbered No. 2 "Portishead" and No. 4 respectively.
Sadly the line closed in 1940 due to it's worsening financial state and the last train was pulled on May 18th by No. 4.
And as the A1X.
What happened next to these 2 engines may come as a surprise to those who don't know and we'll be taking a look at that livery next week.

We've starting collecting our Woolworths Collectibles flip-cards and have been inspired to explore the world of food. Today we are learning about the home of the Souvlaki. Greece. And made our own for lunch. My little World Explorer is helped out. Fun. And yum. Thanks Woolies!
Our little ladies love these. We have changed them up a little so they are kid friendly. And non garlic onion breath friendly. Mini loves making these with me. And she loves making a mess when eating them. And they should be lamb. But are occasionally chicken Souvlaki's.
1 tablespoon Dried Oregano (or fresh if you are not accidental-herb-killers like us)
Half a teaspoon of Sea Salt
500 grams Lamb Strips (or chicken if your kiddies are not huge lamb fans)
1 tablespoon of Oil (olive, canola, coconut what ever oil floats your boat)
1/2 a Lettuce
1/2 a Cucumber
3 carrots
6 – 8 cherry tomatoes
2 tablespoons of Lemon Juice
1 cup of Natural Pot Set Yoghurt (or tzatiki dip)
1 packet of wraps (we use Woolworths Brand Wholemeal Wraps)
Get your little one to mix the seasoning. Just add in the Oregano and Salt. In a big-non-breakable-bowl. Give them a wooden spoon and get them mixing.
Mama needs to cut up the lettuce, tomato, cucumber and capsicum. Grating carrot. And set aside on a chopping board ready to go.
And heat large frying pan and add oil. Whatever oil you use to grease yo' pans.
Add lamb* and brown meat.
Add the Souvlaki seasoning to the meat. And the lemon juice.
Heat through and let it cool.
Pop the cooled meat onto the chopping board with everything else.
Get your little ones to the kitchen bench.
Lay out a wrap. And let them create their own.
Mama to help them wrap it up. Then eat. Yum.
You can add garlic and onion to the meat mixture.
And you can add Pepper to the Souvlaki Seasoning Mix.
And you can make your own tzatziki, or buy the pre-made dip. But we find Natural Pot Set Yoghurt with a little squeeze of lemon works a treat. And is something we always have on hand.

Celebrate the Coming of Winter with Gameiom's New Arctic Party Slot
If you are already looking forward to the winter then you can get a head start thanks to the new Arctic Party slot from Gameiom.
It is a 5 reel slot with 20 fixed paylines. The reels are set on blocks of ice and the high value symbols include a walrus, a puffin, a picnic basket and a bottle of champagne on ice. There is also a large 'Wild' symbol as well as a polar bear scatter symbol and a Free Spins symbol.
Each time that you land a win the symbol involved will disappear and be replaced by more falling from above. This could form another win and then the process will repeat itself.
While you play a bearded character will wander beneath the reels from left to right and back again. If he stops on the same reel as a wild then it will expand to fill all the positions on the reel. The wild will then award a multiplier of between 2x and 6x depending on the reel it is on.
There is also a free spin game triggered by landing 3, 4 or 5 Free Spins symbols. You will receive the same number of spins as there are symbols but each spin will come with one of three bonuses. Either a multiplier of up to 4x, an extra wild symbol or an extra scatter.
To top it all off, the game has a top payout of 3,000x!

Middle-aged couple Josh (Ben Stiller) and Cornelia Schrebnick (Naomi Watts) have a shaky relationship while living in New York City. Josh is struggling on the post-production of his documentary film about leftist intellectual Ira Mandelstam (Peter Yarrow). His previous documentary about the military-industrial complex titled The Power Elite was based on C. Wright Mills's sociological theory. Both Josh and Cornelia are struggling to try to have children, although Cornelia is reluctant due to her miscarrying the past two pregnancies. After finishing a lecture at the college where he works, Josh is approached by Jamie (Adam Driver) and Darby Massey (Amanda Seyfried), a young couple who invite him and Cornelia out to dinner, the former claiming to be a fan of both his works and the works of his accomplished documentary filmmaker father-in-law, Leslie Breitbart (Charles Grodin). Josh is immediately awestruck by Jamie and Darby's non-conservative outlook on life, and he and Cornelia begin spending more time with them and indulging in their activities.
An aspiring filmmaker himself, Jamie talks with Josh about their projects, including Josh's own documentary. This inspires Jamie to make a film about connecting with an old high school friend that he found on Facebook. Jamie and Darby decide to invite Josh and Cornelia to an ayahuasca ceremony, where a hallucinating Cornelia kisses Jamie, while Jamie receives Josh's approval in helping with the production of his film. Later, Cornelia agrees to help produce. Jamie and Josh manage to find the former's friend, Kent Arlington (Brady Corbet), who is in the hospital for an attempted suicide. Not long after, Josh and Jamie discover that Kent was involved with a massacre during an Army tour in Afghanistan, creating an even bigger story for the focus of Jamie's film.
While pitching his own film, Josh is dismayed when he cannot intrigue a hedge fund investor (Ryan Serhant) with the concept of his vague and confusing feature. Josh goes to Leslie with his film for a second opinion. When Leslie's criticisms and suggestions are brought down by Josh, the two get into an argument over Josh and Cornelia's inability to have children, as well as Josh calling himself a disappointment in the eyes of his father-in-law. Then Josh attends a party for a screening of Jamie's own film, which is met far more positively by Leslie and even the hedge fund investor. A jealous Josh argues with Cornelia over Jamie's success, and they separate. Josh meets up with Darby, who is growing sick of Jamie's increasingly self-centered attitude and tells him about Cornelia kissing Jamie. Josh angrily confronts Cornelia the next morning and angrily denounces Jamie.
While teaming up with his editor to re-cut his film, Josh notices evidence in footage for Jamie's film that suggests his meeting with Kent was all staged. Finding him, Kent reveals that he was really friends with Darby, not Jamie, and that he was contacted by Jamie weeks before their shoot. Capturing his confession on camera, Josh goes to Jamie and Darby to confront him, only to discover that a fed-up Darby is moving out and that Jamie is at a tribute celebrating Leslie at Jazz at Lincoln Center.
Josh confronts Jamie in private at the event, admonishing him for compromising the truth and genuineness of his story for dramatic purposes. When Josh forces Jamie to admit to it in front of Leslie, he excuses it, saying that it's a good story regardless of the fabrication, which throws Josh into a rage, but not before admitting that Leslie was right about changing his film. Outside, Josh and Cornelia reconcile.
One year later, Josh and Cornelia are at the airport en route to adopt a baby from Haiti. Cornelia finds an article in a magazine lauding Jamie as a film-making genius, which she and Josh pass off by saying, "He's not evil, he's just young." Then they watch a very young child at the gate playing with an iPhone, staring at him with uncertainty.

A milk allergy is a food allergy, an adverse immune reaction to one or more of the constituents of milk from any animal (most commonly alpha S1-casein, a protein in cow's milk). This milk-induced allergic reaction can involve anaphylaxis, a potentially life-threatening condition.
Milk allergy is distinct from lactose intolerance.
A person with milk allergy can be reactive to one of dozens of the proteins within milk. The most common one is alpha S1-casein.[1]
Alpha S1-caseins do differ between species; but almost all commercially farmed animals produce antigenically similar milk. This explains why someone with an allergic reaction to cow's milk cannot drink sheep's or goat's milk, but can drink breast milk without an allergic reaction.[2]
The allergy may be caused by the presence of specific milk antibodies or specific milk-sensitive lymphocytes. This gives rise to the two distinct forms of milk allergy: Antibody-mediated allergy, and Non-antibody mediated allergy.
The effects of antibody-mediated allergy are rapid in onset, evolving within minutes or seconds. These allergies always arise within an hour of drinking milk; but can occasionally be delayed longer when eating food containing milk as an ingredient.
The principal symptoms are gastrointestinal, dermatological, and respiratory. These can translate to: skin rash, hives, vomiting, and gastric distress such as diarrhea, rhinitis, stomach pain, wheeze, or full-blown anaphylactic reactions.
Milk allergy is a food allergy, an adverse immune reaction to a food protein that is normally harmless to the nonallergic individual. Lactose intolerance is a nonallergic food sensitivity, and comes from a lack of production of the enzyme lactase, required to digest the predominant sugar in milk. Adverse effects of lactose intolerance generally occur after much higher levels of milk consumption than do adverse effects of milk allergy.
Lactose intolerance is considered the normal state for most adults on a worldwide scale and is not typically considered to be a disease condition.[3]
Cows' milk protein allergy (CMPA) is delayed reaction to the milk protein that is normally harmless to the nonallergic, tolerant individual. CMPA is mediated by T-lymphocytes, and is not detectable by allergy blood tests. Because it is not caused by antibodies, it can take several hours, or even up to 72 hours to produce a clinical effect. This makes it harder to diagnose, but also means that it cannot give rise to anaphylaxis, as there are no antibodies to trigger mast cells.
CMPA produces a range of symptoms: The principal symptoms are gastrointestinal, and dermatological. These can translate to: atopic dermatitis, vomiting, and gastric distress such as infantile colic, ]], gastroesophageal reflux, oesophagitis, diarrhea (typically in the very young), constipation (typically in older children), stomach pain, or flatulence. In some cases, particularly infants, it may also include blood and/or mucus in the stool.
Treatment for CMPA is very similar to that for antibody-mediated milk allergy. Some people may also have be allergic to soy protein(s), a combination called a milk soy protein intolerance.
The main treatment for milk allergy is total avoidance of milk proteins. Products in addition to milk itself to be avoided by those with milk allergy include yogurt, butter, cheese, and cream. Goats' milk products and sheep's milk almost invariably also need to be avoided. In extremely rare cases, rare or uncooked beef may also cause a mild reaction.
Ingredients that also denote that food product contains dairy milk include whey, casein, caseinate, butter flavor, lactic acid (derived from dairy products), natural or artificial flavors such as milk or butter flavor, and sodium caseinate.
Milk or milk derivatives commonly are included in processed foods such as bread, crackers, cookies, cakes, prepared meats, "soy cheese", soups, gravies, crisps, margarine, and products labeled "nondairy", such as whipped topping and creamer (nondairy simply means less than 0.5% milk by weight[4]). In some cases, heating the dairy product can denature the proteins, (e.g. baking bread, or other baked goods). Only the ingredients that are chemically reacting will denature. Consequently, some allergic people are able to tolerate cooked foods that contain some milk.
Many processed foods that do not contain milk may be processed on equipment contaminated with dairy foods, which may cause an allergic reaction in some sensitive individuals.
Since milk proteins may be transferred from a breastfeeding mother to an allergic infant, lactating mothers of allergic infants can simply be put on a dairy elimination diet.[5] For formula-fed infants, milk substitute formulas are used to provide a complete source of nutrition. Milk substitutes include soy-based formulas, hypoallergenic formulas based on partially or extensively hydrolyzed protein, and free amino acid-based formulas.
Nondairy-derived, amino acid-based formulas, known as amino acid formulas or elemental formulas, are considered the gold standard in the treatment of cows'-milk allergy when the mother is unable to breastfeed.
Hydrolyzed formulas are available in partially hydrolyzed and extensively hydrolyzed varieties. Partially hydrolyzed formulas are characterized by a larger proportion of long-chain peptides and are considered more palatable. However, they are intended for milder cases and are not considered suitable for treatment of moderate to severe milk allergy or intolerance. Extensively hydrolyzed formulas are composed of proteins that have been largely broken down into free amino acids and short peptides. Casein and whey are the most commonly used sources of protein in hydrolyzed formulas because of their high nutritional quality and their amino acid composition.
Soy-based formula poses a risk of allergic sensitivity, as some infants who are allergic to milk may also be allergic to soy.
Many commercially available replacements for milk for children and adults exist. Rice milk, soy milk, oat milk, coconut milk, almond milk, or milk based on carob seeds are sometimes used as milk substitutes.
On an avoidance diet, reducing the longer-term risk of calcium deficiency and osteoporosis is possible by incorporating other sources of calcium, although the effect of calcium and vitamin D supplementation on osteoporosis is not always clear. Fruit juices supplemented with calcium, sesame seeds, hemp seeds and some kinds of tofu are other calcium sources.
Treatment for accidental ingestion of milk products by allergic individuals varies depending on the sensitivity of the person. Frequently medications such as an epinephrine pen or an antihistamine such as diphenhydramine (Benadryl) are prescribed by an allergist in case of accidental ingestion. Sometimes prednisone will be prescribed to prevent a possible late phase Type I hypersensitivity reaction.[6] Milk allergy can cause anaphylaxis, a severe, life-threatening allergic reaction.
Desensitization, which is a slow process of eating tiny amounts of milk, until the body is able to tolerate more significant exposure, results in reduced symptoms or even remission of the allergy in some people. Sometimes this is done by putting a tiny amount of milk under the tongue, sublingual immunotherapy. The other main approach for milk allergy involves eating a small amount of milk, perhaps baked into food.[7] This is called oral immunotherapy. Sublingual immunotherapy may be somewhat safer, but less effective.[8] However, this may not be permanent and is still being researched.[9][10]
Milk allergy is the most common food allergy in early childhood. It affects between 2% and 3% of infants in developed countries, but 85–90% of affected children lose clinical reactivity to milk once they pass three years of age.[11] The prevalence of milk allergy in adults is between 0.1% and 0.5%.[12]
Between 13% and 20% of children allergic to milk are also allergic to beef.[13]
Milk allergy is found to be associated with increased hospitalization rates and steroid use among children with asthma.[14][15]
Identification of the offending agents early is advised, especially in patients with high risk, and they must avoid them for a better long-term prognosis.[14]

Meet The Universe Halfway/
Recently I was chatting with a friend who is also a Coach, and we got on the topic of unrealized goals, and how to facilitate breakthroughs in achieving them. Yeah, coaches often end up in these sorts of conversations where we're basically coaching each other on how to better coach our clients. It's a big circle of coaching goodness. During that convo I suddenly blurted out what turned into the title to this piece-Hmm coincidence?
Are you struggling for a breakthrough?
You've defined your goals and set your intentions. Maybe you've even shared your goals publicly, thus creating a sense of accountability. You really want this-- but for some reason you aren't making progress. You're stuck. You're starting to get frustrated with the whole thing. You're just about ready to throw in the towel. Again.
Sound familiar?
We've all been there, and I'm betting some of you are there right now! You're probably starting to believe that you just aren't meant to achieve this goal- after all if something is meant to be, it would just happen, right? That's what all the memes say, and all the affirmations, and all the cute Pinterest vision boards you've made that are filled with positive inspiring messages. So why isn't the Universe giving you what you're asking for?? Why??
The Universe, my friends, vast and beautiful is not thwarting you-it wants to give you what you need. But its gifts to you aren't going to be delivered to your front door- they don't come via Amazon Drone! You need to put the work in, and recognize the resources around you.
Ask and you shall receive
Have you ever noticed that once you decide to pursue a goal all sorts of helpful people and information start falling into your lap? It happens all the time- to all of us. And usually we just ignore it! Example: you say you want to learn how to make crêpes. Your neighbor mentions she loves to make them, and has recently bought a new pan just for cooking them. What do you say? If you're like most people you congratulate her on her purchase and move on to the next topic. NO! STOP! That's your chance to ask her to bring her pan over and teach you how she makes these delicate little morsels of goodness. She WANTS you to ask. The Universe wants you to ask. But it's up to you to make the effort. Okay, that's a small goal example.
What about if you have BIG goals? Huge Goals?
It doesn't matter how big your goals are. The same things apply. Really. I know firsthand how scary it can be to reach out and ask those experts who have suddenly shown up in your sphere to help you. But if you don't ask, if you don't make the effort, they can't help you achieve your goals.
When I decided to start Tenacious Acorn, I needed to learn a whole slew of business skills - marketing, branding, promotion, website content creation- the list goes on, and for me it's a pretty intimidating list. But I started to notice that the more I shared my goals and needs with people, the more help I got! People who had the skills and knowledge I needed started showing up in my life. I was able to ask experts for advice, and they were happy to share with me. Some of that help has meant a financial investment on my part, and some has been gratis. But my goals are worthy and important enough to invest in.
You are worth it
What are your big goals right now? Do you know? Do you know how you're going to realize them? Have you tripped on any new resources or information related to achieving those goals? Have you stretched out of your comfort zone and really invested in engaging those resources- whether those resources are Coaches, or websites, blogs, or online programs? You have to be willing to Recognize, Appreciate, and Utilize the experts, teachers, and helpers you've attracted by defining your goals. They'll keep showing up, and the more committed you are, the more effort you make, the more help you'll receive - but you've got to Meet the Universe Halfway!
