Living the Muslim American Dream
TLC takes a look at five Muslim families in their new show All-American Muslim, and Beliefnet talks with one of those families about their life, what it's like to be on television, and their brand new baby.

Have you ever wanted to step into the shoes of someone else? How about wearing their hijab instead? All-American Muslim is a new show from TLC that asks you to do just that.
All-American Muslim
(Sundays at 10/9c), is the latest in their exceptional line of reality television that sheds the sensationalist drama of other productions in favor of, well, reality. TLC's productions trend toward communicating actual events, aiming to reveal new communities in a way that is both sympathetic and honest. It is a feat they pulled off most recently withSister Wives
, an open look at Mormon polygamy.All-American Muslim
examines a lifestyle that is more common and certainly not as extreme, yet the themes of misunderstanding still run just as hard through the show. It aims to do that by showing that Muslims are Americans just like the rest of us.
All-American Muslim
follows the lives of five Muslim families in the community of Dearborn, Michigan, which is home to the largest concentrated Muslim population in America. Newlyweds Nader and Nawal Aoude were expecting their first child at the time of the taping, and being in their twenties, bring a youthful and, often humorous, presence to the show. The two met early in life since their families were from the same village in Lebanon. The Aoudes both pray five times a day, Nawal wears the traditional hijab, and they both adhere to the holidays strictly.
Being a Community
Dearborn, Michigan is home to the largest Mosque in America and a wide variety of Muslim cultures. According to Nawal this makes Dearborn a place that "literally offers you the religion on a silver platter." She credits this to the numerous opportunities for study, many mosques, and readily available Halal meat shops. While the community allows them the freedom to worship it also allows them to, as they both told me, "uphold our American patriotism." Nawal, who works as a delivery nurse, spoke to this: "you know, a part of American life is the work schedule. American life is all about working 8 to 5, 8 to 6, to not stop working. But our work environment actually gives us those 15 to 20 minute breaks to stop and pray."

10 steps to a successful office move
Our short guide is designed to help companies who are moving office by providing a step by step guide to follow
Relocating your office to better suit your brand
Moving office presents a wonderful opportunity to reinvent your work environment and create a space that is fit for purpose and welcoming.
Introducing healthy competition to the workplace
in an effort to encourage physical action, Morgan Lovell recently implemented a simple initiative giving out FitBit fitness trackers to our employees.
Your office relocation journey
Press play to hear experts share their top tips on moving office and how to ensure its success
Where am I going to put my tuna? Change is hard
Resistance to change can take many forms including not knowing where to store your lunch in a new office.
What the home can teach us about office design
There are a lot of things the home can teach us about office design but the main lesson is of choice.
The Cost of an Uninspiring Workplace
An uninspiring workplace can have major ramifications when it comes to staff morale, productivity and attracting new staff.
The evolution of office design
The humble office has evolved hugely over time but what are the origins of modern office design, and what have today's offices evolved from?
What behaviours do you want your office design to encourage?
Thinking early on about what sort of behaviour you want to encourage with your workplace design can pay dividends.
The rise of the office 'smart-station'
The office desk has begun to evolve incorporating technology and increased flexibility. We take a closer look at this evolution.
The standing workplace?
The standing desk is not a new phenomenon but we look at how they have become increasingly popular of late.
Building for the future: Why company culture should influence office design
Office design and office culture are inextricably linked, we look at why that is.
Morgan Lovell cyclist raises £5,000 for Great Ormond Street Hospital
Morgan Lovell contracts manager Andy Burroughs has raised £5,000 for Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) by cycling across Northern Ireland.
Harnessing the power of collaboration
Great design isn't great if you don't consider the specific activities happening within your workspace (i.e. how people use the space).
Designing Offices for Growth
When you're designing your office with growth in mind, it's important to look at ways in which space can be reconfigured to accommodate differing team sizes.
Designing an effective staff break out area
They say that the kitchen is the heart of any home and conversely that the staff breakout area is the office equivalent.
The rise of the informal workspace
An increased focus on flexibility and space efficiency has led to many organisations questioning the traditional meeting room and instead embracing more informal meeting spaces.
Personality and Office Design
Office design needs to cater for both introverts and extroverts and in this article, we look at how workplaces can be designed with both groups in mind.
Workplace Wellbeing Infographic
What is employee wellbeing? That part of an employee's overall wellbeing that they perceive to be determined primarily by work and can be influence by workplace interventions.
Office acoustics: striking the right note
Excess noise is one of the most frequently heard workplace complaints. This short post looks at ways of turning down the volume.
Office design trends
We live in a constantly changing world. It sometimes seems as though trends emerge overnight. New attitudes, needs and wants can become commonplace over a relatively short period of time and office design is no different.
Are we 'always on'? The 'on-demand' workplace
We look at the emergence and subsequent effects of an 'always on' workplace culture.
Death to the Workplace Superman
We recently held an event entitled 'Death to the Workplace Superman' but what do we mean by the term 'Workplace Superman' and what did we talk about?
Event Report: In-between spaces
The concept of in-between spaces in the workplace was discussed at length at a recent Morgan Lovell event, You can download the event report to see what was discussed.
Gamification and the workplace
At work gamification can be applied in many different ways. Studies have shown employees who take part in gamified training retained more factual information for longer.
Mindfulness in design
Mindfulness is a well-being buzzword and has been permeating its way into the Western workplace since the 1970's.

I can't believe people are saying Starfire looks good... it's painfully obvious that torso sculpt wasn't intended for a nearly-nude character. She looks like a stripped Barbie doll with a painted-on bikini. I suppose this should come as no surprise from the company uptight enough to ban Lobo from a normal release.
the fig looks good in general. everyone here should know that its obviously a proto pic, so why are you guys trippin' bout nothing?
I wouldn't say he's trippin about nothin. Generally prototypes are remarkably similar to the released figures. It's unlikely they would use an entirely different sculpt (say, one more suited to a nearly-nude character like he mentioned) for the regular figure. If anything it makes less sense to expect something different from the prototype than it does to criticize it.
I think it's important to voice concerns prior to release. It may not get things changed, but acting like sheep by excusing everything and deciding from the start you're going to love a figure no matter what is crazy.
ive been dealing with this line to long to know that the proto will not look exactly like the finished product.(it will be better) the 4h always uses the same bodies for the protos.....thats why all of the men seem the same size on the protos(like aquaman was big on the protos, but was smaller tan bats and supes when released) you should know that......baa..baaa
I thought the Aquaman prototype looked better than the released figure, mainly because of the orange upper body (it went from brilliant orange to dull, yellow-orange). But he still came out great. Other than that I've never noticed much difference between protos and actual releases.
look again buddy. they use pretty much the same body for all their protos. go to the dc wave 3 and 4 section...everyone thought that robin was going to be big.....
I never saw a shot of the Robin prototype alongside another figure at TNI. The only one I've seen is a pre-sales photo at DCUC.info with Nightwing and he's considerably shorter.

Many of the responses were written some time ago but show why we are in the predicament we are in--the responses show how cowardly the average person is. When dealing with out of control police WE need to stand up to them and document their behavior AND crimes.
As to the ACLU's recommendations being "BS" I suggest that those feeling this way turn in their rights and privileges at the door. I want cops to know that they are being filmed and their actions are being documented. That is our best response to the nonsense now going on in 2014. The police have been allowed to get out of control BY US!

Apocalypse Now
Brian D. McLaren talks about beginnings, endings and the Bible in best-picture nominee 'The Return of the King'
"The Return of the King" is the third installment of director Peter Jackson's filming of J.R.R. Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings" trilogy. In this final chapter, Frodo the hobbit, with his friend Sam, make their way to the Crack of Doom to destroy the Ring of Power, while the future of Middle Earth is settled with the crowning of Aragorn as king of Gondor.
I want to talk about how good and evil are portrayed in "The Return of the King." It's been suggested that Frodo and Gandolf come across as too pure and the Orcs so evil in the movie, where Tolkien's books depict all creatures as flawed. Do you agree?
Well yes and no. Those Orcs really do have bad teeth, true. But look at Gollum. He has really bad teeth too, but in this despicable creature is still something remotely lovable and some trace of dignity, and he has a very important role in the story. The great continuing flaw of Sam--probably the most lovable character in the whole story--is his inability to have compassion for Gollum.
In defense of the movie and the Orcs, though, I think revulsion is part of how fairy tales work. They teach us revulsion, which is underrated. We need to develop a sense of revulsion against the abuse of power, for example.
How do you think it compares to the Christian story, which Tolkien famously worked from. Does Christianity portray good and evil starkly?
In a "whodunnit," the bad guy is often the person you least expected. And there's that dimension to the story of Jesus, as you can see in the hot debate recently about Mel Gibson's film--Jesus, the good guy, is Jewish, but some of the bad guys are Jewish too. And the Romans are bad guys, yet there are a couple of Roman good guys in the story.
So the Gospels tell about the obvious kind of evil, but they have some surprises. A great example is Peter, when he makes the confession about Jesus being the Messiah. In the next breath, Jesus tells him '"Get behind me, Satan." It's just fascinating. Sermons tend to turn everything into a kind of a Sunday school moralism, but the Bible itself is a lot more ambiguous.

- "You were always a disobedient boy. It's for the best son... at least try to die like a real man! Try to stop shaming me!"
- — Ma Cipriani, upset on her son.
No Son of Mine is the final mission in Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories given to protagonist Toni Cipriani by his mother Ma Cipriani from her restaurant in Saint Mark's, Portland Island, Liberty City.
Toni drops by his mother's place, looking to finally win her over. When he arrives, she is talking on the phone. After finishing her conversation, she tells Toni how much he has disappointed her. She then informs Toni that she has called a hit on him and admonishes him to "at least try to die like a real man". Toni, however, is in disagreement with Ma's view of the matter, choosing instead to show that he could ward the attackers off and survive.
In the mission, the player is required to fight off four waves of hitmen, who appear with increasingly lethal firepower (first with only pistols, followed by TEC 9s, Micro-SMGs, and, finally, AK-47s). The player is given three pickups, including a Pump Action Shotgun, a Micro-SMG, and health. If the player successfully fend off the hostiles, the player passes the mission.
Mission objectives
In order to complete the mission the player must:
- Show Ma you're a match for her hitmen. Kill them all
- They're really mad now! Eliminate them
- They're not giving up! More hitmen are heading your way. Wipe them out
- Look out! Hitmen are closing on you. Waste them
- More hitmen are approaching. Blow them away
There is no reward for completing the mission. After completing it, more of Ma Cipriani's hitmen will attempt to kill Toni at random intervals. The hitmen are armed with Micro SMG's and AK-47 rifles. The only way to stop the hitmen from attacking you is to complete the mission, Making Toni. On-screen messages will herald the arrival of the hitmen.
- The cars the hitmen use are black Sentinels that have a very special "pushing" force. Each Sentinel doesn't lose speed or direction while hitting another car but it is extremely vulnerable to damage, and a mid-speed crash will set it on fire. They can also drive straight through Pay 'n' Spray garage doors while they are closed.
- If you go anywhere by car during the mission, the hitmen will hijack the nearest car and follow you.

Esperance mallee
Cape Le Grand National Park, Western Australia. Photograph by Gerhard Ortner
The Esperance mallee is an ecoregion in southwestern Australia amounting to approximately 44,600 squares miles in terrestrial extent. It is classified within the Mediterranean Forests, Woodlands and Shrub biome. About one half of the land area of this ecoregion is currently being used for agriculture, with most of the damage from agricultural clearance having been carried out in government sponsored public works programs.
There are a total of 382 recorded macro-fauna in the Esperance Mallee, including numerous special status birds and reptiles. The semi-arid ecoregion boasts a plethora of snakes, including two endemic squamata; there is also one endemic amphibian species, Neobatrachus albipes, in the Esperance Mallee.
Location and General Description
Esperance mallee is an aggregation of the Esperance Plains and Mallee regions of the foundational Iinterim Bogeographic Regionalisation for Australia (IBRA) study. The ecoregion lies just east of the southern portion of the Darlington Range, at the southwest edge of the Great Victoria Desert and is bounded at the south by the Indian Ocean. The southern coastal portion of the ecoregion is known as the Esperance Plains.
Esperance Plains
The Esperance Plains, sometimes termed the as Eyre Botanical District, is a distinct biogeographic region in southwestern Australia. Situated along the south coast of Australia on the Indian Ocean between the Avon Wheatbelt and Hampton regions, it stretches between Albany and Point Culver on Australia's south coast; moreover, bordered to the north by the Mallee biogeographic region, it is a plain with accents of granitic and quartz outcrops and ranges, with a semi-arid Mediterranean climate and vegetation consisting chiefly of mallee-heath and proteaceous scrub.
The Esperance Plains boasts over 3500 native vascular plant species, and around 300 established naturalized alien species. On the Esperance Plains there have been 72 distinct taxa of endangered plants, with another 433 species having been designated Priority Flora under the Department of Environment and Conservation's Declared Rare and Priority Flora List.
Mallee biogeographic region
Mallee, also called the Roe Botanical District, is a biogeographic region in southern Western Australia. Wedged between the Esperance Plains, Avon Wheatbelt and Coolgardie regions, it manifests a low, gently undulating topography, a semi-arid Mediterranean climate, and extensive Eucalyptus mallee vegetation. About one half of the region has been cleared for intensive agriculture. Recognised as a region under the Interim Biogeographic Regionalisation for Australia (IBRA), predominant soil is sand over clay, overlying Archean and Proterozoic granite of the Yilgarn Craton. At the eastern limits there is some calcareous soil overlying Eocene limestone. The region manifests a low-lying, gently undulating topography, with rather occluded drainage, such that a series of playa lakes is produced.
Eucalyptus eremophila. Courtesy: Encylclopedia of Life/Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh The Mallee biogeographic region vegetation is predominantly Eucalyptus mallee over an understory of myrtaceous and proteaceous heath. Over half of the land area is vegetated solely by mallee, with a further one fourth chiefly mallee with woodland patches; the latter vegetation occurs mainly on the calcareous soils to the east. The mallee region consists of a number of Eucalyptus species, the most consistent being tall sand mallee (E. eremophila). Seasonally wet and alluvial zones are vegetated by Melaleuca shrublands where freshwater, and Tecticornia low shrublands for saline soils. There are also sporadic thickets of Allocasuarina, particularly on greenstone hills.
Mallee biogeographic region species richness varies between 17 to 48 species per one thousand square metres, depending upon soil nutrients, microclimate and water availability. The lowest species richness occurs in severe habitats such as alongside hypersaline lakes or other saline ponds, as well as within zones of high soil nutrients, where dominant flora suppress competing species. Conversely, the highest species richness occurs in soils with the low soil nutritient content. Most species in the Mallee biogeographic region are killed off by fire, and require regeneration from seed.
Within the Mallee region, there are 3443 native vascular plant species, and a further 239 naturalized alien species. As with other regions in semi-arid areas of the South West, it exhibits high endemism, especially with respect to Eucalyptus and Acacia species. The endangered flora of the Mallee region consists of 55 species, with another 325 species having been designated Priority Flora under Australia's Department of Environment and Conservation's Declared Rare and Priority Flora List
Biodiversity features.

Mallee is a general term to depict a series of eucalypts which exhibit a subsoil bulb structure called a lignotuber, which is attached to the plant's roots. New bulds are able to sprout from the lignotuber subsequent to a wildfire. Mallee trees and accompanying understory shrubs are therefore adapted to the poor soils, lack of rainfall and regular fire disturbance regime of this arid coastal zone.
Tne faunal assemblage of thes ecoregion the coast includes the reptiles: the endemic McKenzie's dragon (Ctenophorus mckenziei), near threatened Bardick snake (Echiopsis curta), the vulnerable endemic E. atriceps, the endemic lerista viduata, and the highly venomous Common Death Adder (Acanthophis antarcticus), An endemic amphibian of the ecoregion is the Neobetrachus albipes; the near threatened Main's ground froglet (Geocrinia lutea) is a special status amphibian of the ecoregion. Mammals within the ecoregion include the near threatened brush-tailed phascogale (Phascogale tapoatafa), near threatened red-tailed wambenger (P. calura), near threatened western quoll (Dasyurus geoffroii), and the minute honey possum (Tarsipes rostratus) which feeds on nectar of the Australian kangaroo paw flower (Anigozanthos manglesii).
Birds include the endangered western whipbird, endangered Australasian bittern (Botaurus poiciloptilus), endangered slender-billed black cockatoo (Calyptorhynchus latirostris), endangered white-tailed black cockatoo (C. baudinii), vulnerable fairy tern (Sterna nereis), vulnerable great knot (Puffinus tenuirostris), vulnerable far eastern curlew (Numenius madagascariensis), vulnerable malleefowl (Leipoa ocellata), near threatened black-tailed godwit (Limosa limosa), near threatened blue-billed duck (Oxyura australis), near threatened buff-breasted sandpiper (Tryngites subruficollis), near threatened letter-winged kite (Elanus scriptus), western ground parrot, red-winged fairywren (Malurus elegans), Australian white ibis (Threskiornis moluccus) and the rare Cape Barren goose (Cereopsis novaehollandiae) in the coastal zone..

The principal vegetative assemblage of the Esperance Plains region is mallee-heath; which covers around 58 percent of the plains. Other key flora forms include mallee (17 percent), scrub-heath (13 percent) and coastal dune scrub (4 percent). Only a very small amount of woodland is found on the plains; the only woodland communities being dominated by Eucalyptus marginata (Jarrah), Corymbia calophylla (Marri) and E. wandoo (Wandoo) in valleys of the Stirling Mountains (one percent); and limited amounts of E. loxophleba (York Gum) and Eucalyptus occidentalis (Flat-topped Yate) woodland in certain low-lying areas. There is also a rather small amount of low forest on the coastal islands out in the Indian Ocean.
Current status
The Esperance Mallee is classified as an ecoregion that is Critical/Endangered. Furthermore the ecoregion is designated as a G200 unit, indication it is of the highest priority for ecoregion protection

Type and severity of threats
A considerable fraction of the land area spanned by this ecoregion is presently being utilised for agriculture, such that the natural environment is under ongoing threat from clearance, leading to habitat fragmentation and over-irrigation; moreover, wildlife is vulnerable ton introduced alien species such as foxes.
Justification of ecoregion delineation
Justification for ecoregion delineation: The Esperance Mallee ecoregion includes two IBRAs, the Mallee and the Esperance Plains biogeographic regions (Thackway and Cresswell 1995). The Esperance Mallee ecoregion is part of the Southwest Botanical Province Centre of Plant Diversity, and includes both the Roe and Eyre Districts (Beard 1995). The Esperance Mallee also represents the eastern extension of the Southwest Australia Endemic Bird Area (Stattersfield et al. 1998). Vegetation is predominantly shrublands and open shrublands of mallee, with a semi-arid Mediterranean climate.

Comments On Jul 28, 2015:I've been a fan of Polisport's Enduro headlights, tail lights and fenders in the past.
I know Acerbis and Polisport both supply plastics for KTMs depending on year and model. It does appear KTM gets a more refined product from what I've seen. And I've owned a dozen KTMs in my life to compare.
I felt good about buying my rad shrouds from Polisport and saving a buck over Acerbis. But mold quality was not there. The panel supports on the backside of the plastic were very visible on the outside and created uneven surfaces that would be visible through the vinyl graphics.
When you consider the cost of a set of graphics and aftermarket rad shrouds... the OEM stuff with permanent graphics is actually CHEAPER. I'll stick with the better quality OEM plastics whenever possible in the future. Acerbis comes in second... Polisport third place.
BTW - RMATV of course exchanged the rad shrouds no questions asked.

Here's something to think about as you get into the summer pool fun.
Survey by Water Quality and Health Council reveals:
-1 in 5 adults urinate in swimming pools
-7 of ten don't shower before getting in the pool!
'The Pool Smell' is actually from peeps having all sorts of different chemicals on their bodies from lotion, makeup, deodorants, general sweat.... The stronger the pool order, the more contaminated the pool is! I'm guilty of not showering before I get in a pool.

|An amazing salad with carrots, mint, cilantro, green onion, lime, and jalapeno!
My definition of salad has changed a lot in the time I've been focused on low-glycemic cooking and sharing the recipes on this blog. Although I still love classics like Perfect Taco Salad or Greek Salad, nowdays I've greatly expanded my mental list of salad possibilities. A few years ago I tried Carrot and Parsley Salad, and then Carrot, Parsley, and Garbanzo Salad, and that opened my mind to the idea of carrots as a main ingredient in salad. When I spotted this shredded carrot salad from Joanne Weir in Fine Cooking Magazine, it sounded like another interesting salad combination with carrots. I ramped it up a bit, adding mint, and green onions, using more herbs, and using green Tabasco sauce in the dressing to get the jalapeno flavor throughout the salad. I love this new take on carrot salad; and when my brother Rand was visiting Utah recently, he also pronounced it a keeper.
Whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, and green Tabasco sauce to make a spicy dressing.
Combine the shredded carrots, chopped mint, chopped cilantro and sliced green onion.
Spicy Shredded Carrot Salad with Mint, Cilantro, Green Onion, Lime, and Jalapeno
(Makes 4-6 servings, adapted from Shredded Carrots with Jalapeno, Lime, and Cilantro by Joanne Weir in Fine Cooking July 2009.)
10 oz (4 cups) shredded carrots
1/2 cup (or more) finely chopped mint
1/2 cup (or more) finely chopped cilantro
1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions
2 T fresh-squeezed lime juice
1/2 tsp. green Tabasco sauce (could also use finely minced jalapenos or other jalapeno-flavored hot sauce)
3 T extra-virgin olive oil
salt and fresh-ground black pepper to taste
Mix together lime juice and green Tabasco sauce, then whisk in olive oil.

Fendi Watches
Fendi is an Italian company that was founded in Rome in1925. The brand was founded by Eduardo and Adele Fendi in a tiny leather goods shop in Rome, Italy. They worked with private clients as they still do today as one of Italy's most important and influential fashion brands. Like many other Italian fashion lines producing luxury goods, the Fendi company is a family dynasty owing a great deal of its success to the strong blood links comprising an intrinsic part of the business. After the death of their father in 1954 Fendi Turned to the 5 children of Adele and Edoardo to run the business. In a time in which Italy struggled to cope with post-war reconstruction, is when the Fendi daughters bring in new ideas and fresh energy into the Fendi brand lifting it to its round the world popularity. Fendi is famous for its trademark "F" logo on which they put on both the bracelet and chronograph watches.

Peanut Allergy
Topic Overview
What is a peanut allergy?
A peanut allergy is a reaction that occurs when your body mistakenly identifies peanuts as harmful substances. When you eat peanuts or food containing peanuts, your immune system—the body's natural defense system that fights infections and diseases—overreacts and can cause a serious, even life-threatening response.
What causes a peanut allergy?
An allergic reaction occurs when your immune system overreacts and releases chemicals, including histamine, into your blood. These chemicals can affect different tissues in the body, such as the skin, eyes, nose, airways, intestinal tract, lungs, and blood vessels. It's not clear why peanuts trigger this response in some people.
What are the symptoms?
Symptoms of peanut allergy can range from mild to life-threatening. If you have a mild reaction, you may get a stomachache, a runny nose, an itchy skin rash, hives, or tingling in your lips or tongue. If your reaction is worse, you may develop additional symptoms such as a tight throat, hoarse voice, wheezing, coughing, feeling sick to your stomach, vomiting, belly pain, and diarrhea. Your symptoms may start from within a few minutes to a few hours after eating peanuts or peanut products.
People who are allergic to peanuts may have a life-threatening reaction called anaphylaxis. Symptoms of anaphylaxis can include problems breathing and swallowing; vomiting and diarrhea; dizziness; dangerously low blood pressure; swelling of the lips, tongue, throat, and other parts of the body; and loss of consciousness. If not treated, death can result. Anaphylaxis usually occurs within minutes but can occur up to several hours after eating peanuts or peanut products.
How is a peanut allergy diagnosed?
To diagnose a peanut allergy, your doctor will start with a medical history and a physical exam. Your doctor will ask about any family food allergies, especially siblings with peanut allergies. He or she will ask detailed questions about your symptoms, how soon your symptoms began after you ate the food, and if any over-the-counter allergy medicines like an antihistamine were helpful. Your doctor will ask if other people also got sick, how the food was prepared, and what other foods were eaten.
It's important to find out whether you have a food allergy or food intolerance. Your doctor may ask you to keep a record of all the foods you eat and any reactions to the foods. Your doctor will also consider if your reaction could have been caused by things like allergies to medicines or insect stings, food poisoning, irritants in foods, and exposure to skin irritants.
Your doctor may ask you to try an elimination diet, an oral food allergy challenge, or both.
- In an elimination diet, you avoid eating foods that may be causing an allergic reaction and see if your symptoms go away. If symptoms come back when you eat the food again, your doctor can confirm your food allergy. The elimination diet can last from 2 to 8 weeks.
- In an oral food allergy challenge, you eat a variety of foods that may or may not cause an allergic reaction. Your doctor watches to see if and when a reaction occurs. This test is considered the best way to diagnose a food allergy.
You may also have allergy tests, such as skin tests or blood tests, to determine what foods you are allergic to after you have been diagnosed with having a food allergy.
How is it treated?
If you accidentally eat a peanut, follow your doctor's instructions. For a mild reaction, you may only need to take an antihistamine, such as diphenhydramine hydrochloride (Benadryl), to reduce your symptoms of a runny nose or itchy skin.
If your allergic reaction is more severe, be sure to follow your doctor's instructions for this type of reaction. If you have had a severe reaction previously, your doctor has probably prescribed a medicine called epinephrine. Give yourself the epinephrine shot, take an antihistamine, and call 911 for further instructions.
For more information on how to give an epinephrine shot, see:
- Allergies: Giving Yourself an Epinephrine Shot.
- Allergies in Children: Giving an Epinephrine Shot to a Child.
Even if you feel better after giving yourself the shot, symptoms of anaphylaxis can recur or suddenly appear hours later. You need to be observed in a hospital for several hours after your symptoms go away.
If you do not have epinephrine and are having a severe allergic reaction, call 911 immediately.
How can I avoid an allergic reaction?
To prevent an allergic reaction to peanuts:
- Understand your allergy and know that you need to protect yourself. Read food labels or ask kitchen staff at restaurants if there are peanuts or peanut oils hidden in any of the foods you order. For example, some cooks thicken chili with peanut butter.
- Some people are so severely allergic to peanuts that being near them or breathing air that contains peanut residue can cause an allergic reaction.
- Let others know that you or your child
has a peanut allergy. Make sure that all caregivers (such as school
administrators, teachers, babysitters, and coaches), friends, and coworkers:
- Know what the symptoms of an allergic reaction look like.
- Know where the epinephrine shot is kept and how to give the shot.
- Have a plan to transport you or your child to the hospital.
- Wear a medical alert bracelet or medallion that lists your peanut allergy. This will alert emergency response workers if you have a severe allergic reaction. Medical alert jewelry can be ordered through most pharmacies or on the Internet.
- Keep your epinephrine shot with you at all times. Make sure older children know how to give you or themselves the shot. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you are unsure how to give yourself the shot.
- Keep an antihistamine such as diphenhydramine hydrochloride (Benadryl) with you at all times. These medicines can be used in addition to epinephrine and are often helpful in both mild and severe allergic reactions.
If you think you are having an allergic reaction:
- Get help. Do not minimize the seriousness of the problem.
- After you give yourself an epinephrine shot, call your doctor immediately or seek other emergency services. You will need to be observed for several hours to make sure the reaction does not recur.

You might think that Elizabeth Banks was sick of Capitol couture after spending hours being done up for her role as Effie Trinket in The Hunger Games. However, her outfit at the film's premiere proved otherwise.
The shiny orange frock that Banks wore could have been straight out of Effie's closet in the fictional Panem. The one-shouldered dress hit at mid-thigh and featured complicated swirly orange detailing that was complemented with shiny plastic discs and sequins all over. The actress didn't stop there - she wore chunky, futuristic gold earrings with a matching clutch and was towering in tan wedge heels.
Her makeup palette, however, was a slightly subdued version of her character's. Unlike Effie's wild, multi-colored eyeshadow, blush and lipstick, which varied to compliment each outfit, Banks stuck with simple black eyeliner on her top and bottom eyelids to create definition. She accented this liner with a bit of hot pink shadow on the inner corners.
Banks wore blush and bronzer with a tangerine hue that matched her outfit, and finished the look with a pale pinky-orange lip gloss. Her blonde hair was pulled back to show off her fresh-faced look.

The Battle of the Bluegrass was fought Thursday night at the Ice House where billiard enthusiasts donated to the charity event in order to be paired up with a variety of sport celebrities and see who would end up the greatest pool player of the Derby Festival.
The tournament was a single elimination doubles game of eight ball with each contestant randomly paired with a sports celebrity. And even though, I'm afraid to say, that I wasn't all too familiar with the different participating celebrities, I can eagerly admit enjoying watching the whole game unfold. The people who had donated to charity to play along in the tournament were a mix of different aged pool sharks and people just wanting to be a part of the event. I could understand why. Not only did it prove interesting to watch these top-notch athletes a little out of their league, their humor and great attitudes also added a wonderful amount to the atmosphere. For the most part, notable athletes like Jerry Smith, Derrick Anderson, Chris Smith, Eric Wood, and Amobi Okoye joked around good-naturedly with their partners and their competition, making the whole affair light hearted and amiable.
The environment that the Ice House provided set the stage nicely. In a half loft, half warehouse design, the two-floor event room added a classy air. Eight pristine tables lined the bottom floor and a nice courtyard stretched outside. Luckily, the weather played nice and so any player or spectator in need of a break had a lovely patio to get one. The coordinators also provided a whole spread of upscale pub cuisine. Deliciously complex grilled cheese on a stick, salmon caper burgers, and gourmet sliders gave everyone something to eat while matching the upscale barroom feel.
Additions to the charity event included really good music by the turntables of DJ K Dogg and an extensive silent auction by American Pastime, which offered a number of signed records, sports memorabilia, and an inexplicable Disney cartoon cel of the movie Bambi.
In my opinion, the real treat of the evening was the host: world champion pool player Jeanette Lee, also known as the Black Widow. Wearing the most striking dress and on impossibly high heels, her personality rang through the room. She played the role of host as everyone should play it. Always moving and overseeing the games, she quickly challenged anyone nearby to a quick game over an open table. She offered tips, tricks, and spankings (her words) to all players, celebrity or civilian. After the first round of play, one of the contestants appeared quite upset at having lost, Jeanette Lee talked to them kindly and then beat them soundly in a rousing game. It was all very professional, effective, and enjoyable to watch.
All around, I hope this event becomes a regular one. Old pool hucksters teamed up with young basketball stars ended up offering a really engaging evening. All in all, I learned that salmon caper burgers are delicious, sports celebrities do not tuck their shirts in as a rule, and that Jeanette Lee is one class act.

With all this speculation on the return of Doc as coach of the C's, something seems to be missing from this equation to me. It hasn't hit me till recently what it was. Just have to ask the right question, or questions, as it turns out. How is Doc's relationship with his star pointgaurd? To me, that's the determining factor for his return (if PP & KG have seen their last days for the C's).
In most situations in this league, when a coach has a star caliber player with the heart of a winner (ala Rajon), they usually partner up with them to the point of "As long as ""so & so" is in a "so & so" uniform, I'll be here". Does Doc see Rondo as a champion that he wants to ride/coach to the top? Or was his guys PP, KG, and Ray? PP & KG? PP? Or Kg? If they aren't here, does he still have the same passion in coaching this team? Does he not respect/believe-in Rondo to wanna come along on Rondo's journey? Could that be a tell-tale sign about our young stud pointguard?
I don't recall hearing any tid-bits about Doc & Rajons relationship either on or off the court. Anyone know how these two get along? If Paul and KG are gone, THAT to me is the key to Docs return.

If a player could feel any worse after a game than Rahim Moore did Saturday following Denver's 38-35 double-overtime playoff loss to the Baltimore Ravens, the Broncos safety wouldn't know how.
"I feel (the game) was my fault, and I'm going to take full responsibility for it," Moore said.
Moore was among three Broncos defenders playing well back in a three-deep formation designed to prevent the big play when he took a bad angle to the ball on a Joe Flacco pass to wideout Jacoby Jones down the right sideline.
The result of that bad angle became devastating for the Broncos, if not demoralizing. Not only did Jones make the catch, Moore allowed Jones to get a couple of steps behind him and the Ravens speedster kept running for a 70-yard, game-tying touchdown with just 31 seconds left.
The gasher came on third down, causing the buzz among the crowd of 76,732 in Sports Authority Field at Mile High to be snuffed out in an instant. It was far from the only breakdown of the Broncos' defense, however. Baltimore gouged Denver's No. 2-ranked defense the entire game, via the pass and run.
"I should have made that play. I just misjudged it," Moore said.
Broncos players said Moore shouldn't feel the need to blame himself for the loss because plenty of his teammates could raise their hand. Broncos Pro Bowl cornerback Champ Bailey had one of the worst games of his 14-year career.
Bailey yielded two long touchdowns in the first half — both to wide receiver Torrey Smith. After Denver had taken an early 7-0 lead on a 90-yard punt return by Trindon Holliday, Bailey got beat on a post pattern and Smith nabbed a spiral from Flacco in full stride for a 59-yard touchdown.
Then, inside the final minute of the second quarter, Smith jumped above Bailey along the right sideline and raced 32 yards to pull the underdog Ravens into a 21-21 tie at halftime.
"(Smith) is a good player; I have to give him credit," Bailey said. "There are some things I wish I had done different. It's one of those situations I wish I had back."
Credit also goes to running back Ray Rice for keeping Denver's defense honest by rushing for 131 yards. And to the remade Ravens offensive line. Flacco was sacked only once and was rarely pressured.
"We didn't get the (pass) rush like we should have," Broncos defensive end Elvis Dumervil said.
It didn't show up on the scoreboard, but another big Baltimore play came on a Flacco pass to tight end Dennis Pitta during the first overtime. The Ravens faced third-and-13 and were backed up on their own 3-yard-line when Flacco hit Pitta for 24 yards with a high-arcing pass that floated between Broncos safety Jim Leonhard and cornerback Tony Carter. Had Denver held on that play, it likely would have have gotten possession near midfield.
The Ravens eventually had to punt, but that third-down conversion and a 52-yard punt flipped the field position. The Broncos took over backed up on their 7-yard line and Peyton Manning's pass was intercepted six plays later, leading to the game-winning field goal.
"It's disappointing," Leonhard said. "You go into a game knowing big plays are how (the Ravens) win. If you don't let them throw the ball over your head, you've got a great chance of winning. For whatever reason, it didn't happen for us."

No? Then stay far, far away. To me, this isn't even a good time waster. I played to level 35... the worst day of my life. Maybe it's because I'm a little more biased toward action type gameplay. Whatever. I hate this game. Good day.
