How have your tastebuds changed?
- t
- The Blissful Glutton Sep 11, 2006 10:56 PM
I still find it amazing how much my tastebuds change over the years. I hated mushrooms all my life (yes, I am aware how horrible that is) and just started adoring them 5 years ago. I don't know what did it but I suddenly could not get enough of them. Same goes for lamb. Has this ever happened to anyone else out there?
I forced myself to learn to like raw tomatoes, which was about the only thing I really didn't like. I can eat them one of two ways now: on a grilled cheese sandwich or mixed with garlic and olive oil and lots of salt on a bruschetta.
Over the last few years, I've felt like eating more beef and fewer sweets...not really sure why.
I used to be able to tolerate lowfat and American cheese. Now they taste like chemical plastic (a redundancy, I guess). I used to be more into sweets, too, but these days I'm into savory.
Another vote for less sweets. I used to have the biggest sweet tooth, and now the thought of snacking on sweets really just doesn't appeal to me. I'd much rather have a piece of cheese or something.
Also, I used to abhor mushrooms and then about a year ago I became obsessed and would look for any excuse to eat them.
I don't know whether it's a question of them changing, but I find myself liking things now that I hated 30 years ago, and vice versa. Maybe it's a never ending learning experience; the more you try, the more you figure out what you like/ dislike?
When I became pregnant I started to HATE lamb, parsley and black pepper.
After the birth of my son, I regained the love of parsley and black pepper. To the utter dismay of my husband, I still do not like lamb, which I used to love. Now, everytime I go out with my girfriends, he eats lamb and we are all happy!
re: Ally Cat
I'm with you on the lamb. I used to love it and then one day, it was so darned GAMEY... it was like eating a farm.
Now that I am pregnant I am completely disgusted by breakfast eggs--sunny side up, scrambled, et cetera, but have developed a silly craving for pancakes, which I previously hated.
I also remember as a young person being very averse to ripe cheeses and seafood on the halfshell. Now that I'm an adult and temporarily barred from having either, its what I love and wish for most.
I guess I'm taking this question a bit more literally than other posters. About four years ago, days after I returned from a trip to Thailand, I was making briskets to take to a friend's Seder. I decided to make two very different recipes, one to satisfy each of the two families that would be there. When I went to taste them, they tasted exactly the same. One was a tomato based sauce, mildly seasoned; the other an onion based sauce, quite heavily seasoned, especially with garlic. Couldn't tell the difference for the life of me.
Long story short, it turned out I'd lost my sense of smell due to a sinus infection I'd picked up overseas and couldn't taste a thing. As I'm sure you all know, most of what we "taste" comes from our sense of smell. I could only recognize sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and umami--what it is that our tastebuds recognize without using our noses. My sense of smell, and therefore taste, returned very slowly over the course of a year and a half. I still recall the first time I smelled garlic emanating from a pizzaria. I was so happy I started skipping down the street.
During the time my sense of smell was impaired, I found myself putting hot sauce on everything. I came away from that experience still liking my food a good deal hotter than most. In fact, I've discovered that a surprising number of people who like their food really hot have somewhere along the line lost at least a partial sense of smell.
Gradually over the years, I have come to love onions and spicy foods. I would not touch that stuff when I was a kid. Some tastes have come upon me all of a sudden. I was in New Orleans one day and wandered into Johnny's Po-Boys; after looking at the menu, for some reason unknown to me, I had a burning desire for a fried oyster po-boy (I had never had oysters before). It was love at first bite.
I'm constantly trying to train myself to like things I may not like normally.
In a kitchen I taught myself to like bell peppers, which still kinda make me cringe when I eat them.
And raw onions, most every kid hates raw onions. Now, many years later, I can destroy raw onions. Sandwiches aren't complete without them.
I used to just like tomatoes, but when I was pregnant w/ my daughter during the summertime six years ago, I became almost obsessed w/ tomatoes. I thought about them all of the time and ate raw tomatoes with just about everything. I *still* crave tomatoes and I'm almost devestated when tomato season ends.
My daughter, incidentally, ADORES tomatoes. If she'd been born w/ her ingredients listed she was probably about 40% tomato!
i used to hate cheese until 4 years ago...then again I think it was because my mother forced me to eat american singles as a kid.
re: bitsubeats
Hahahaha! I've been working on Natto too.
It's rough.
re: bitsubeats
I once got confused and ordered natto thinking I was ordering edamame. Imagine my surprise... I remember my appreciation of natto, and help others to avoid the same mistake, using the mnenomic "not to -- be eaten."
re: Jefferson
My sister is a natto fanatic. She eats this salad that is raw red onion, cilantro and natto. She swears by it. Talk about a body cleanser! I can only eat it every once in a while.
re: bitsubeats
The first time I tried natto I didn't gag, nor did I find it particularly repellant, but I didn't really think too much of it, either. A few months later, I found myself craving the idea of it, and the second time I had it I was sold. Now it's a fairly regular part of my diet. To me, the smell and the taste have a buttery element that I really like (makes up for having to pick the cobweb-like threads off my chin).
I do think as we get older our tastes change. I HATED mustard as a kid and teen. Now I have about six different types in my fridge :/ I used to like Watermelon as a kid, now it's 'meh' to me (and I REALLy can't do Watermelon Juice! BLEH!!) One thing has remained the same though... I still can't stand nopales...
We lose tastebuds as we age (it's why most kids LOVE sweets and hate veggies). It's why a lot of much older people aren't as interested in food.
A pregnant friend of mine told me that a pregnant woman's body regenerates in nine months so it makes sense that what you crave in pregnancy you might keep craving - you're different! The rest of us take seven years i believe?
Taste and texture issues are not always the same. I can't eat raw tomatoes because of the texture but LOVE them cooked.
I think a lot of emotional/cultural/psychological issues can play into food dislikes too, and perhaps as we age we get over them?
I hated onions as a kid and love them now. I hated coffee then and still hate it. Also still hate broccoli, cauliflower, asparagus, or any bitter greens. Am back and forth on carrots....I think carrots are suspicious.
More than anything I'm willing to eat more 'mature' food combinations: salty with sweet or sweet with salty, especially. Subtleties are more interesting to me now. I'm also more willing to try the 'hated' foods in new combinations to see if I like them.
re: krissywats
Interesting: the pregnant thing.
And, not only do we lose tastebuds when we age, but infants and toddlers actually have tastebuds on the *inside of their cheeks*. It's no wonder that often they reject very spicy foods or foods that have a sulfurous component like broccoli unless those foods are repeatedly offered.
re: krissywats
"..I think carrots are suspicious. "
that's funny :) I think carrots are suspicious too, but I have no idea why. perhaps they were cooked into things and caught us unaware as children? i used to hate cooked carrots but now don't mind them, as long as they are not bitter and are just one component of the dish.
re: julesrules
I couldn't STAND celery and used to pick it out of all Chinese food. Then one day, it just grew on me. I mean, it came with the wings from Wingstop and I dipped it in Blue Cheese dressing, but now, I'll happily munch on it plain.
my taste buds have changes exactly the same way, I would not eat mushrooms ans then one day... Tasted the most fabulous mushroom dish ( I was just being polite) and now.. I'm a musha-holic.
re: The Blissful Glutton
I'm with you, but my friend doesn't like raw tomatoes because she says they have a mealy texture. Mealy?! She's a little more willing to eat those tiny cherry tomatoes that taste almost as sweet as berries. Maybe you need to get some of those for your husband.
people are reminding me of all the things i used to hate as a kid, even though I loved most vegetables and had a very adventurous palate otherwise: cooked carrots, large pieces of cooked onion, mushrooms, or green peppers (it was the texture not the taste that bothered me). i also used to hate the fat or skin from meat, but unfortunately now love it.
i guess i didn't like anything mealy, which now means a mealy apple, tomato, banana, etc.
I'm 24.
Things I used to hate but now love:
Spinach, Brussel Sprouts, Asparagus, Mussels, Uni, Unagi, Natto, Dried Shrimp, Maclaren's Imperial Cheese, Blue Cheese (I have 6 different types in my fridge right now -- how could I have hated this?), Liver, Scotch (I've always loved wine and most other spirits), Lobster Roe and Tamale, Squash,
Things still growing on me:
Beer (in general), Certain whole grains, Ika, Taco (I'm a texture person -- I now eat and enjoy these when I used to hate them),
Thing I used to like but now hate,
Regular Coke (or any other highly sweet soda -- I now prefer 'diet'), cheese slices or velvetta,
In general my barriers lie of the Bitter and the musty ends of the taste spectrum and on the chewy side of the textural world.
When I was a child I was absolutely appalled by the smell of baked potatos! Of all things! I couldn't understand how anyone could possibly go near them! So strange....now I can't think of anything I wouldn't eat.
I find myself enjoying more varied (sweet and sour)flavors. I was never a vegetable eater growing up, but I love exotic veggies and many times i prefer them to a meat dish. My flavors to sweets have changed as well.
I used to love all sweets of any kind, but now I am more discriminating. I worked as a pastry station and I find myself burnt out on most sweets. I tend to go with something very unusual or different flavor combinations. the only kind of chocolate that I can eat is bittersweet or baking chocolate. It not at all unusual for me to get a small piece of baking chocolate and just nibble on the same piece for a few hours. I never liked soda and I don't keep it in the house, except for the occasional bottle of tonic water.
I was surprised to read about the previous poster's taste changed when she had a baby. I used to love the taste of hoppy pilsners and Belgian Abbey beers, but after the birth of my daughter I cannot stand the taste of any beer or liquor. I never drank much wine, and now I only keep wine and spirits in the house for cooking
foods I wouldnt touch as a kid:
salad--or if i did have it, I always ate it plain, without any dressing (WHY???)
mayonnaise--we usually only had that nasty Miracle Whip which I thought WAS mayonniase.
Any kind of nuts--now I LOVE pisatchios, almonds and cashews!
Ribs--Gods gift to mankind
Wheat bread--still working on this one
Black Pepper--I put that on EVERYTHING now
Olives--they definately now have their place
Sweet potatoes
re: asiansensation007
i used to hate olives, until about age 22 when i had the good fortune of trying them again in italy (mmm). i've noticed some of my friends now in their mid-late 20s are starting to acquire a taste for olives as well. is this a common thing?
Used to hate: beets, sweet potatoes, sauerkraut. Now I just love them. We had beets this evening, as a matter of fact.
Ditto cilantro - once I learned to use it where it's appropriate and where it enhances food, rather than overwhelms it, I understood how great it can be.
I've always loved most vegetables, so that was never a big deal. Still do. Except for okra.
One delightful change is that I now enjoy beans. In my youth they were just too chalky, no matter how they were prepared.
Curried foods are great, too. I was always worried they'd be too hot to handle, but now I know what to order so I am enjoying them.
For years I would barely sip at a glass of wine, just to be polite. Now...well, don't get between me and the bottle. I'm still not a fan of beer.
I can't think of anything that I used to eat but no longer tolerate. I've just added more stuff that I like, which is a lot of fun.
I still loathe certain textures, like sweet bread pudding or custard. If the flavors in them are savory, though, it's completely different.
When I was a kid, I only liked Black Diamond cheese slices, dill pickles, sauerkraut and potatoes and fruit. Unless it was sour or salty, I didn't eat it!
It seems as though as every year goes by, I start loving something that I absolutely could not get close to when I was younger - I remember the first time in Home Ec in Junior High when I learned that green bell peppers could taste good. And then a few years later I liked mushrooms and sour cream. Raw tomatoes were a hurdle that I overcame on vacation to Mexico with Pico de Gallo after I graduated from high school. My passion for olives came a year or two later. Fresh fish and seafood came next (who knew there was life after frozen fishsticks?)
Now I've gotten to the point where there aren't any vegetables that I can think of that I don't like - although I'm still not particularly fond of boiled peas. Why would you wreck a beatiful thing like peas and turn them into mush? Beets were my last real problem in the vegetable arena, until I realized they tasted fantastic grated raw with garlic and mayo. Yum!
There are still a lot of tastes to conquer out there. I'm not a great fan of organ meats or dried shrimp or blood sausage, but I just may get there eventually.
I hold the line, however, at fervently persuing the acquisition of taste for Natto!
My tastebuds haven't changed an awful lot from when I was little, they blossomed and became more discriminating though.
It was only since I really started to try and appreciate food more (actually thinking when I eat instead of putting it in and swallowing) that my tastebuds have really changed. General sweet flavors don't do for me what they used to. I like complexity now. I've occasionally cought myself eating a spoonful of plain, stoneground dijon mustard, the flavors are so intense and varied! The only thing I can say I don't like are orejas (pig ears, spanish style). not my thing...

What's this? Frank Black, the mercurial leader of the Pixies, one of the most brooding and foreboding bands from the postpunk era, sounding enthusiastic? Soaking up the vibe of an all-star musical assemblage Steve Cropper, Spooner Oldham, Buddy Miller, The Band's Levon Helm, Cheap Trick's Tom Petersson, Bad Company's Simon Kirk, and Motown great Bob Babbitt, among others Black rambles down the back roads of classic Americana. The result is a stirring, soulful, tuneful set of songs 27 spread across this double-disc set each of which makes an immediate and indelible impression. The pessimistic refrain from "It's Just Not Your Moment" proves misdirected. It's obvious that in crafting this album for the ages, he's made this moment his.

Nifty online study aid: The digital highlighter
Do you do a lot of studying online? If so, do you ever wish you could easily highlight certain passages, just like you can in a textbook? (OK, maybe you don't—but it sounds cool, right?)
Do you do a lot of studying online? If so, do you ever wish you could easily highlight certain passages, just like you can in a textbook? (OK, maybe you don't—but it sounds cool, right?)
In a post called "How to Install and Use Digital Highlighters" at Legal Skills Prof Blog, James B. Levy mentions two different companies that offer this handy product—complete with demo videos. (Levy is an associate professor at Nova Southeastern University School of Law.)
Presumably, just like with actual highlighters, these won't bleed through onto the next page.
Maybe you've heard that you need a mentor to help you succeed in law school and beyond. But maybe you're not the type who feels comfortable approaching random, high-powered lawyers—assuming you even know where to find them.
How can you take some of the stress out of the process of finding a good candidate and asking him or her to mentor you?
Start with your own interests and background, suggests Kimber Russell, social media manager for Kaplan PMBR, in a post called "Finding a Mentor" at Beyond
Hearsay. Is there a particular area of law that interests you? Do you think you want to go solo right after graduation? Think about your ethnic or cultural background, your gender, and your sexual orientation, too. There are mentoring programs, many of them through bar associations, based on all of these factors and more.
In case you don't make a good connection this way, Russell also spotlights a new mentor matching site called LegalMentor.com, which she says offers free membership for law students. Maybe your Mr. or Ms. Right Mentor is there waiting for you now!
Chances are, you'll be doing a lot of writing this year. And if you're a 1L, it's possible you've just realized how long it has been since you last studied grammar.
At his Legal Writing blog, Wayne Schiess, director of legal writing at the University of Texas School of Law, offers some grammar resources handpicked for lawyers and prospective lawyers. See his post, "Sources on Grammar," for some reference book recommendations; if you need help right away, here are three websites he mentions:

Virginia Sanders remembers Penny Rosenthal during Arbor Day celebration
Date: January 23, 2013
by: Observer Staff
A downpour just minutes before the 11 a.m. start of the Longboat Key Garden Club's annual Arbor Day celebration Thursday, Jan. 17, in Bicentennial Park, necessitated a quick change of venue, but it didn't dampen participants' spirits.
About 35 people shuffled into Longboat Key Town Hall for a ceremony dedicated to former club President Penny Rosenthal who died last May.
"Penny worked tirelessly to maintain Bicentennial Park," said Virginia Sanders, who served as co-president with Rosenthal from 1994 to 1996. To honor her memory, the Garden Club had a marker made with her name placed in front of a Hawaiian orchid tree.
Sanders recounted memories of Rosenthal at the ceremony and continued her annual tradition of sharing a story about a type of tree. This year, she spoke about the history of chestnut trees.

That's right. Sony's latest and greatest little invention combines the wonder of the Android™-powered mobile age with the sci-fi fantasies of a 1940s radio serial.
The SmartWatch – name pretty much says it all, right? – allows you to get quick and efficient updates from your Android™ smartphone, all right on your wrist or clipped to your shirt. Check text messages, Facebook® and Twitter™ updates, and control your music: you can do it all with the SmartWatch.
And, trust me, this is no piece of toss-away hardware. Though it's only eight millimeters thick (thin, really), it's dust- and splash-resistant because of its aluminum casing. It comes with a black rubber strap – because, really, black is the new black – and an included adaptor to incorporate your own favorite wrist band. We'll also offer the rubber bands in five other flavors: pink, mint, gray, white and blue.
Now, we've been calling this an Android™ accessory because it is an Android™ accessory. You don't need a Sony Mobile or Sony Ericsson phone for the SmartWatch to do its thing. HTC Desire? Works with that. Motorola Droid RAZR? Yep. Samsung Galaxy SII or LG Optimus One? Check and check.
Typical battery time for this bad boy is about three or four days but, with Bluetooth® disabled (say, when you're sleeping), you can run this on standby for up to two weeks without a charge.
How does it compare to other "smart" watches? Well, for one, it's using versions of Android™ 2.1 and up. Throw in the 128×128 OLED screen and the accelerometer and this thing's looking pretty sweet.
But, don't take our word for it. Want to see the goods? Feast your eyes on this:
The SmartWatch is now available for $150 (excluding tax). Swing by a Sony Store to check it out.

Bruins and Kessel still at impasse
Kevin Paul Dupont
Opening Night now slightly more than three weeks away, speedy Bruins winger Phil Kessel remains without a contract, putting into doubt his statement last month that he would have a new deal in place by the start of the 2009-10 season.
Heatley trade talks trip up … return to Sens camp likely
The Senators are trying to help Dany Heatley move — back to Ottawa, for now.
Camp invitations were sent out to Senators players last week and the unhappy winger, who has asked for a trade, was told if he needed any help making travel arrangements between his summer home in Kelowna, B.C. and Ottawa, the team would be happy to help.
Pesky Preds Will Fight to Bitter End
To call the Nashville hockey team the Predators may not be that accurate. These days they are more like pesky. Gone are the days where the team will aggressively acquire a Peter Forsberg to bolster their lineup or spend big via free agency.
Instead, here is a team that seems destined to scrape and claw their way into the playoffs building within and using a blue collar work ethic.
Wild: Offer to Sykora could be in wings
MICHAEL RUSSO, Star Tribune
With Wild players set to report for training camp in one week, General Manager Chuck Fletcher is contemplating offering a contract to free-agent winger Petr Sykora
Maple Leafs in position to take a run at Kessel
Kevin Paul Dupont
Bruin Phil Kessel, almost dealt to the Maple Leafs in June, soon could be fitted for a Toronto sweater.
The question is: Will the Leafs once again try to pry Kessel away via a trade, or will Toronto general manager Brian Burke opt instead to extend an offer sheet to the fourth-year right wing, who last season scored a career-high 36 goals?
Burke's laying the cards on the table
It seemed like a routine trade until you consider what the impact may be…
Gm Brian Burke made a trade today involving draft picks. Burke reacquired the Leafs 2010 2nd round pick in exchange for a 2nd rounder(Calgary's) and 3rd rounder (Toronto's) in the 2011 draft.

Sabres Trying To Avoid Mediocrity
The Buffalo Sabres have gone from being the best team in the league 2 years ago, to a middling franchise that is too good to get high draft picks but not good enough to be a playoff team.
The organization seems caught in a rut which they cannot seem to get out of. They have endured quite a bit of personnel losses with stars like Drury, Briere and Campbell moving on. It has taken some of the edge this team had that made them one of the league's most exciting teams and they must find a way to get it back.

|Even the best of coaches need a mulligan in Year 1
|Written by Admin
|Friday, 05 December 2008 13:53
Saban's debut at Alabama was marred by a four-game losing streak at the end of the regular season. Heck, the Crimson Tide needed a victory in the Independence Bowl just to eke out a winning record.
Meyer's opening season at Florida was more successful, though the Gators still managed to lose three Southeastern Conference games, including a bitter defeat to former coach Steve Spurrier that kept them out of the league championship game.
Even with the best of coaches, it usually takes a year to really get things rolling.
But watch out in Year 2.
els in the way a successful program is constructed.
``Players need to get used to you. You need to get an understanding of the players,'' Meyer said. ``There are usually schematic changes that take a little while to get used to. Absolutely. That's truth. That's real.''
Saban should know, having been through it before. At LSU, he posted a respectable 8-4 record his first season, but the Tigers lost big to Auburn and Florida and were even beaten by UAB. The following year, they won their first outright SEC championship in 15 years and went on to the Sugar Bowl.
``It's a tough transition year,'' Saban said. ``You're trying to change a culture in terms of the way people do things. It's more difficult for the older players to probably adjust to and adapt to that, and those guys are probably the guys who provide quite a bit of leadership, and are looked to for leadership. It may be the most difficult group to buy in.''
But those recalcitrant seniors are only in the way for one season. When everyone reports the following year, a coach - especially the good ones - begins to tighten his grip on the program. He's got another class of his own signees. He's had enough time to win over those who might have been resistant to change, or send them packing.
e the change and change the culture, and provide the leadership that the coach would like to make the changes,'' Saban said. ``Because change is inevitable when you change staffs, but whether you choose to do it or not is a choice.''
Those juniors-turned-seniors certainly bought into Saban's program, even though Alabama's regular-season record in 2007 was exactly the same (6-6) as the mark that led to Mike Shula's firing the previous year. In a way, that lack of success worked in the new coach's favor.
``We really didn't do it the way coach Saban wanted us to do it, and we saw the results,'' Crimson Tide safety Rashad Johnson said. ``Once the summer came around, you could just see a different look in the guys' eyes, of the seniors now, and the way that we were working, just trying to get better every week. Everybody bought into the system.''
Now, they'll be part of one of the most anticipated matchups in the 17-year history of the SEC championship. For the first time, the game will pit No. 1 vs. No. 2 (at least according to The Associated Press poll) in what essentially serves as a semifinal game for the national title.
The winner will almost certainly claim a spot in the BCS championship game at Miami, while the loser settles for the Sugar Bowl.
e game as a commanding 10-point favorite. The high-powered Gators are the nation's third highest-scoring team (46.3 points a game) and their 11 victories have been by an average of 37.3 points. Of course, there is that one blemish, a shocking 31-30 loss at home to Mississippi in late September.
While Saban and his players shrugged off the point spread, Florida figures it will wind up on a bulletin board as motivation.
``They're still the undefeated team, still have not lost a game yet,'' Gators defensive back Joe Haden said. ``If I was them, I would definitely use that as fuel.''
Alabama hasn't been nearly as dominating, beating LSU in overtime and winning close ones in regulation against both Kentucky and Ole Miss. Then again, that sort of experience may come in handy if the SEC championship is still up for grabs in the closing minutes.
The Tide has won the tight ones. Florida lost its only close game.
``That's a very real concern,'' Meyer conceded Friday. ``We've been doing a lot of extra work at the end of practice on our two-minute offense and those kind of drills.''
ay. He was finally going to test it out during a light practice at the Georgia Dome, but only after all the media had been ushered away.
So it won't be known until kickoff if Harvin will be able to play, or how effective he'll be if he does.
Saban arrived in Tuscaloosa to great fanfare, and it was obvious the fans were on board when 92,000 of them packed Bryant-Denny Stadium for the 2007 spring game, nothing more than a glorified scrimmage.
That first season, the players seemed willing to adapt to a coach who was much more demanding, much more regimented than Shula. They knew he had won a national championship at LSU. They knew he was being paid more than any coach in the country.
But an overtime loss to Georgia soured the mood, and a bitter loss to Saban's old school seemed to split the team wide open. The Tide struggled through an embarrassing loss to Louisiana-Monroe, a sixth straight defeat to rival Auburn and settled for a letdown of a bowl trip to Shreveport, the same spot they'd been the year before.
going to work if everybody isn't on the same page and sell out for one cause and be committed to that cause.''
All Saban needed was a mulligan.

Babylon eyes changes to sidewalk repair code
The Town of Babylon will hold a public hearing next month on a change to town code intended to clarify responsibility for sidewalk maintenance.
The current town code for sidewalk repair states that the town board "may, from time to time, by resolution require the repair of sidewalks along streets, roads, highways and parkways" in the town "at the expense of the abutting owners or otherwise upon such notice and pursuant to the authority or requirements of" state town law.
Town spokesman Tim Ruggeri said some residents were confused by the existing law and asked the town for clarification. Ruggeri said the town decided to make it clear that it is the property owner's responsibility to keep "a sidewalk safe and in good repair." The exception, he said, is if the town is responsible for damaging a sidewalk, in which case it is the town's responsibility.
The proposed change to the code would now state that "each owner, lessor, lessee, tenant, occupant or other person in charge of any property within the Town, shall keep the sidewalk in front of or abutting the lot, house, or building, in good and safe repair and shall maintain and repair the sidewalk adjoining his property." According to the code, such parties are also "liable for any injury or damage to person or property by reason of the omission, failure or neglect to repair or maintain such sidewalk in a safe condition."
The hearing will be held June 19 at 3:30 p.m. at Babylon Town Hall.

University of Texas at Austin nursing school leads effort in mass casualty education
July 15, 2002
AUSTIN, Texas—The School of Nursing at The University of Texas at Austin will be one of the first schools in the nation to offer a course on how to minister to victims of a mass casualty event when it offers "Disaster Nursing" beginning July 18.
The post-Sept. 11 look to the School of Nursing's curriculum content starts with second-semester classes (July 15-Aug. 16).
"If a mass casualty event like those of Sept. 11 occurs in Austin or anywhere else in the state, nurses at every level will be called upon to employ emergency response skills," said Dolores Sands, dean of the School of Nursing. "Though nursing has had little training or experience with treating victims of weapons of mass destruction — we want our students to be ready."
Earlier this year, Sands was appointed to the International Nursing Coalition for Mass Casualty Education, a new coalition based at Vanderbilt University and composed of international nursing, medical, military and education experts. Members of the group began looking at how to change curriculum for current students and through continuing education.
In the university's elective class, which is open to undergraduate and graduate students, the structure and organization of health management in disaster response will be taught. The summer class will be held every Thursday from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Students will learn everything from how to decontaminate victims at an incident site to how to recognize and treat the psychological impact of a mass casualty event on victims and health care professionals. After the course, they also will able to perform effective triage, appropriately handle human remains, transport victims and complete recovery operations, including reports and debriefings.
"We developed this course as a direct response to the events of Sept. 11," said Dr. Marilyn Pattillo, who will teach the course. "We always have taught public health nursing, emergency room nursing, etc., but now it's a whole new ballgame."
Not only will nurses be at the forefront of treating victims of a mass casualty disaster, they could the first respondents in a biological terror event "because we see the rash first," said Pattillo.
"Nurses are everywhere — in schools, in public health, hospitals, offices, industries and businesses — and we need to know what to do," she said. "If a mass casualty event occurs, every nurse should be available to employ emergency response skills."
Learning how to deal with the psychological impact of terrorist strike is particularly important, said Pattillo.
"A bioterrorism event is different from all other forms of terrorism because of its potential to create panic and civic disorder," she said.
Pattillo has lined up numerous speakers for the course, including a terrorism officer from the National Emergency Response and Rescue Training Center, the director of emergency management for the city of Austin, a member of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the head of the emergency preparedness division of the Texas Department of Health and various experts on bioterrorism. Bill Coll, director of medical operations with the Austin Fire Department, also will speak.
There will be a mock disaster response drill July 25 in the quadrangle of the nursing school. Students, wearing protective clothing, will be simulating a patient extraction from a contaminated site. There also will be stations set up to highlight the role of the nurse in preventing responder stress and safety. On Aug. 1, students will learn how to splint, dress and wound and treat eye injuries during a standard first-aid session.
"Like most disaster concepts, this course is divided into three areas — preparedness, response and recovery," said Pattillo, who is retired from the U.S. Air Force Reserve Nurse Corps and is active in American Red Cross disaster health services.
As students learn from other disciplines, the speakers also will be learning from nursing, Pattillo said. "So, there actually will be a two-way learning effort going on."
