Are you ready to kick it up a notch? Wait -- forget that. Are you ready to kick it up notches unknown to humankind? Finally, Emeril has written the book his fans of Emeril Live and Essence of Emeril have been waiting for -- a collection of his very favorite recipes from both shows.
It's all here -- from cooking up Fall River memories like St. John's Kale Soup, Roasted Scrod with Parsley Potatoes, and Boston Cream Pie with his mom, Hilda, to Louisiana specialties like Creole Spiced Blue Crabs with Green Onion Dipping Sauce, Fried Eggplant with Shrimp Stew-Fay, and Blueberry Beignets.
Hey, this isn't rocket science, but it's good eating, with starters like Caramelized Salmon with Cilantro Potato Salad and Stuffed Morels with Crawfish Remoulade. This isn't Kansas anymore, Toto, and these are salads like you've never had them -- Herb-Tossed White Asparagus, Fresh Crabmeat, and Grilled Radicchio Salad, Emeril's BLT Salad, and Molasses Duck Salad.
Does pork fat rule at your house (and if it doesn't, why not?)? Then take your pick of the pig --- Homemade Bacon, Andouille Stuffed Jalapeqos, and Pork Burgers in Gravy with French-Fried Sweet Potatoes. And don't limit yourself to one part of the barnyard -- try Emerilized Chicken Cordon Bleu, Funky Lamb Shanks, Pan-Roasted Filet Mignon Stuffed with English Stilton and Walnuts, or Smothered Oxtails over Spinach and Sweet Corn Mash.
Emeril's TV Dinners not only includes more than 150 recipes, it is jam-packed with candid black-and-white photography of Emeril behind the scenes, in front of the cameras, on tour, and really live in his New Orleans restaurants.

This past weekend Tony Carr of West Portsmouth walked 100 miles to Columbus, Ohio
in support of Angie Arnett. Arnett has been diagnosed with liver and lung cancer.
When asked what his motivation for the journey was Carr said, "my motivation to do this was, a classmate of mine Angie Arnett. She is a really good girl, she's never done drugs and she always been an inspiration to a lot of people. She's always helped others out and has never asked for anything in return. Her and her husband, did not ask me to do this, these are just the type of people I would go out of my way to help."
His journey started on Friday, Sept. 13 at around 7:15 a.m. "I went 17 miles (that day) and stopped for the night in Piketon. I got up really early the next morning (Saturday, Sept. 14 around 4 a.m. and took off, I made it to Circleville by 5:30 p.m. that evening. I started (Sunday morning) around 4 a.m. and made it to The Ohio State University by 5:30 p.m.," Carr said. "For a journey of 100.9 miles."
Carr said along the way he was keeping friends, family and supporters updated through Facebook. Carr said the best and the saddest part of his journey came from someone who had read one of his statuses.
"Everyone was sharing my statues on Facebook and as a result a family from Wheelersburg decided they wanted to meet me. At that point I was around Piketon and they saw me walking on the side of the road," Carr said. "Before they left a little boy handed me a little blue smurf, and said 'carry this with you and it will keep you safe the whole way.' His mom then informed me he (the little child) had cancer. When they pulled off I sat on the guardrail and cried for about a half an hour," Carr said.
He said each picture that was taken of him along the remainder of the journey he held up that smurf.
Carr said his motivation stayed strong throughout the journey but when he arrived at Scioto Downs, "my knee was killing me, my feet were swollen and I had Band Aids on every one of my toes."
He said it was around that time his sister, Lisa Copas and Mitchell Reedy, joined up with him and helped him complete the journey.
When asked if he felt a since of accomplishment after this journey was complete, Carr said," that was the most emotional walk I have ever had in my life. I laughed, I cried and when I got to The Ohio State University and got my picture taken in front of their sign, all I could do was cry."
When asked if given the opportunity, would he do this all over again, Carr said, "I would do this all over again."

OXFORD, Ohio - First-year Miami University men's basketball coach John Cooper earned a 73-64 victory in his RedHawk coaching debut against Maryville (Mo.) in the team's only exhibition game of the 2012-13 season Wednesday night at Millett Hall.
Miami opens the regular season against No. 6 NC State Friday, Nov. 9 at 7 p.m.
The RedHawks' newly installed press defense forced the visiting Saints into 21 turnovers, which helped Miami dig out of an early 18-10 hole with nine minutes left in the first half. The RedHawks were able to convert the Saints' turnovers into 20 points for the home team. MU finished with 12 steals and two blocks.
"Our press was able to affect them in spurts and we were able to get on some runs," Cooper said.
Junior forward Will Felder led the RedHawks in scoring with 15 points and added a game-best nine rebounds. He finished 6-of-12 from the field.
Junior guard Allen Roberts and junior center Drew McGhee both scored 10 points apiece, while junior guard Quinten Rollins added five assists and five steals, while committing just one turnover in 33 minutes of action. In total 11 of the RedHawks' 13 players saw action.
"We are going to play a lot of people," Cooper said. "We have to have depth."
The Saints led for much of the first half, but the RedHawks went on a 15-2 flurry over the final 3:38 of the opening stanza.
Freshman guard Reggie Johnson knocked down a trey, while McGhee chipped in four points during the scoring surge. Junior guard Josh Sewell, who finished with eight points, hit a three as time expired in the first half to give Miami a 33-24 lead at the break.
Maryville knotted the game with 8:50 to play, 58-58, but the RedHawks finished the game on a 15-6 run to seal the win. A Roberts' 3-pointer pushed Miami ahead for good. Felder, Roberts and Rollins accounted for all of the RedHawks' scoring to round out the game.
The Saints were led by Armon Provo, who had a game-high 16 points. Trae Pemberton added 14 points, while Asa Toney chipped in 10 points. Max Mischkulnig led Maryville with seven boards.
The RedHawks shot 44.8 percent from the field (26-of-58) for the game and were 18-for-28 from the charity stripe. The Saints shot 45.5 percent and were 6-of-10 from the line.

On Tuesday, 2 March 2004, the Africa Biodiversity Collaborative Group (ABCG) hosted a presentation by Charles Kelly of Benfield Hazard Research Centre, University College London on the "Rapid Environmental Impact Assessment in Disasters (REA)" project.
The REA has been developed to quickly identify salient environmental issues in disasters and improve the overall effectiveness of relief operations. In the past, environmental issues were not systematically considered in disaster relief planning and operations for lack of an appropriate assessment process. The REA now permits environmental considerations to be incorporated into disaster response at the community as well as organizational levels.
The REA, formalized into a Guidelines for Rapid Environmental Impact Assessment in Disasters, has been field tested in Afghanistan, Ethiopia and Indonesia. In addition, a training module on the REA has been developed. Additional information on the project is available on the web at www.benfieldhrc.org/SiteRoot/disaster_studies/rea/rea_index.htm.
The presentation focused on the role of environmental non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in emergency situations.

This question has been separated from this one at the request of Jon Ericson. (Thanks again for the edit.)
When one looks at different translations of Matthew 24:36, one finds that the KJV mentions does not mention that the Son does not know the day and hour, whereas some other English translations say that the Son does not know.
What should the correct translation be in this case?
Thank you very much.

I like seeing the "Paradise Valley Motor Co" frame, I saw that in the trunk way back when... I think that was custom made, I don't recall ever hearing of such a place. Young Motorcars, 811 N. Scottsdale Rd in Scottsdale, was the local authorized AMG outlet as per AMG advert in an '84 issue of Road&Track I have.
The Phoenix looks brilliant as always.
quick update:
The AMG modified 5.4 litre M117 has returned home! AMG modifications include AMG cams, solid lifter conversion, lightened valve train, port and polish heads, bored cylinders and stroked crank which provide the additional .4 liter displacement. AMG offered this and .2 displacement increases prior to Mercedes introducing the 5.6 litre M117 in 1986. Aside from the AMG cast 3 piece 32 valve heads, this was of biggest performer AMG had to offer thru 1985.

Wow. Just. Wow.
The WB's stable mate is a genuine AMG modified 1982 500SL with a AMG installed 5 speed manual transmission, one of five known V8 (M117) AMG MT examples in the US. The next step to the SEC WB's mechanical transformation is to pull the SL's box and duplicate the uber rare M117/Getrag bell housing and mate it to the 5.4 with the exact Getrag box AMG offered back in the day.
The AMG modified M117 is another animal all together when mated to MT. It really comes alive.
one of the vehicles that has inspired the mt conversion:
anyway, thanks for the all the positive feedback and I'll keep you guys posted on future progress.
Did you bring the car to cars and coffee last saturday? They had a MB marquee section. Quite a few W126 bodies, but in pretty worn condition.
Amazing work as always Henric! I second Ivan's (choochoo) suggestion to bring it to Cars and Coffee. You will definitely get lots of attention there!!!
Will that M117 use CIS injection?
Missed out on the MBCA supported CnC last weekend. Will definitely make it to future events but did attend Supercar Sunday some months ago. Photos were posted here on Vortex by a fellow member.

"Who is that?" Adam asked, pointing at a boy on a swing set. Adam was helping, pasting photographs into an album at the kitchen table. His mother, rolling out a piecrust at the counter, paused to look.
"That's Uncle Tommy," she said. "Don't you get flour on that."
Next there were some grown-ups sitting on Gramma and Grampa's couch. Next a lot of people in front of extra-tall corn, kids in front. "Is this Aunt Rosalie?"
"That's Rosalie all right—look at the hair."

Christmas Ornaments For The Green, Trendy–And Slightly Disturbed
So at first we decided to forgo the office Christmas tree. We got out our string of LED lights, wrapped them around the head of our beloved mascot, Pressley the Panda, and called it a day. But a synthetic panda head doesn't smell like pine. So, we came up with a better idea—a real, sustainably grown tree with recycled ornaments. Our choice? The dozens of cardboard cozies we've been hoarding from our Massapequa Perk coffee addiction. But hey, not everyone downs gallons of organic Ethiopian coffee per day and saves their trash to a degree worthy of a reality show on the A&E channel. So for the rest of you, here are some alternatives.

The Sellinger School provides undergraduate education grounded in the liberal arts tradition, centered in Jesuit core values, enhanced by management education/knowledge and incorporating experiential learning. We believe that a well-balanced education emphasizing clear thinking, effective expression and ethical reflection is crucial in preparing our students to meet the unique challenges of today's global economy.
Loyola offers business majors in accounting, and business administration. Within business administration, you can concentrate in business economics, finance, general business, international business, management, information systems, or marketing.
A faculty member is assigned as a mentor to advise the student in selecting a major. While all business students must take a number of prerequisites in the first two years, selection of a particular major and concentration within the business school is not required until the junior year. The major provides a foundation in general business principles, while the concentration develops more acute skills and in-depth knowledge in one subject.

Girard Boulevard Complete Streets Master Plan
Project Contact
For more information or to comment as a user or neighbor of Girard Boulevard, please contact us.
At the request of abutting neighborhoods and in light of new development and changing transportation needs at the University of New Mexico, City Councilors Isaac Benton and Rey Garduño are sponsoring a street improvement master plan study of Girard Boulevard.
The purpose of this effort is to develop a comprehensive plan to improve the corridor for drivers, pedestrians, cyclists and other users. The final product will address pedestrian and bicycle mobility and safety, intersection improvements, traffic congestion and the overall "livability" of this collector street.
The project team, including consultants Dekker/Perich/Sabatini and Fehr & Peers, began by analyzing traffic and accident data for the corridor, reviewing existing relevant plans and policies, and meeting with affected neighborhood associations and other key stakeholders, such as UNM, the city's Transit and Municipal Development Departments, and bicycling advocates, to develop an assessment of existing conditions, issues and opportunities along Girard.
Once a clear set of issues was defined, a set of solution alternatives was developed and presented for comment at a public meeting on Aug. 23, 2012. Potential solutions discussed at this meeting included traffic calming techniques; pedestrian improvements such as refuges, signals and replacement of missing or deteriorating infrastructure; and on-street bicycle facilities such as lanes or sharrows where feasible. Participants were given the opportunity to provide input on their preferred solutions and improvements to the street. Following that meeting, the project team produced a Draft Girard Boulevard Complete Streets Master Plan, which is available for download below. This plan considers community preferences, existing conditions such as average daily traffic and the varying right-of-way width along the corridor and makes several recommendations aimed at calming traffic, improving safety and increasing use of the street by cyclists, pedestrians and others. These are broken down into less expensive short-term improvements, such as restriping and the addition of bicycle lanes where right-of-way allows, and longer-term projects such as sidewalk and streetscape improvements.
Please feel free provide your feedback on the Draft plan using the contact methods below. The project team would be happy to present the recommendations in the draft at neighborhood association meetings or other community events upon request, and we can also schedule a second public meeting to discuss the Draft plan if there is interest. Feedback received on the Draft will be used to produce a final plan, which would guide future redevelopment of the street and set priorities for funding various improvement projects along the corridor.

Proposed Corrections as of 6-3-2013
The following corrections have been suggested by stakeholders to date. The Project Team will incorporate them and any additional comments received before June 30 into a final draft of the Plan, which will be published in late summer 2013.
- Page 11 – in the second paragraph under the "Bicycle Conditions" subhead, clarify that while the in-progress City of Albuquerque Bikeways and Trails Master Plan proposes a Bicycle Boulevard on Dartmouth between Campus Blvd. and Silver Ave., Dartmouth itself runs from approximately Burton to Lomas. It resumes north of Jefferson Middle School and continues from there to Indian School.
- Pages 15 - 17 – update discussion about Jefferson Middle School with timeline for proposed on-campus loop road and other student drop-off changes.
- Page 15 – update Table 1 to correct error in Average Daily Traffic column (should be the sum of the north-bound and south-bound column).
- Page 27 – Add language about monitoring and mitigating unintended consequences of a lane reduction in this segment, such as cut-through traffic.
- Page 34 – correct the following paragraph: "Suggests examining the reconfiguration of signal to allow west-to-northbound Girard turn as part of a strategy to reduce cut-thru traffic on Dartmouth" To read: "Suggests examining the reconfiguration of signal to allow turns from eastbound Central-to-northbound Girard as part of a strategy to reduce cut-through traffic on Dartmouth."
- Pages 32-36, Intersection Graphics -- Remove depiction of on-street sharrow graphics as indicators of bike lane continuation through the intersection, replace with standard bike-lane markings per the Federal Highway Administration's Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD).
- Throughout – expand discussion about left turn lanes that were temporarily installed on Girard during the Lead/Coal project and later removed. Several stakeholders have requested that left turn lanes be reinstalled on Girard at Lead and Coal.
- Throughout, especially between Santa Clara and Gibson – program additional speed limit signs, on-street graphics, etc. and other tools to reduce speeding.
- Throughout – include discussion/exploration of reducing speed limits on parts of the corridor from 35 to 25 mph.

Palomar Health CEO is No. 2 again
Covert makes more than almost every other local government employee in California
Palomar Health CEO Michael Covert is certainly a standout in the State Controller's Office online database disclosing pay for local government employees.
His pay eclipses almost all of the 740,000 employees statewide whose compensation is reported. Almost.
With a new batch of data just uploaded for 2011, Covert's taxable wages rank No. 2 — for the third year running.
The database was launched in 2010 in response to the outsize pay scandal involving the city administrator for the Los Angeles suburb of Bell, Robert Rizzo. Covert came in just below Rizzo for 2009 wages.
For 2010, Covert ranked behind a Santa Clara County public hospital executive who collected a large lump-sum payment when resigning that year.
And now, in the 2011 data, Covert has been leapfrogged by the chief of the Washington Township Health Care District in Fremont.
Covert's pay topped $778,000 in 2011, or $157,500 shy of the top spot, according to a U-T Watchdog review of the data.
What do you think of Palomar Health CEO Michael Covert's pay?
Too little 5% (15)
Just right 12% (38)
Too much 84% (273)
326 total votes.
As they have in the past, hospital officials said Covert's pay is commensurate with his duties as the head of the largest public health-care district in the state, as measured by land area. They noted the agency has $2 billion in annual gross revenues and 4,500 employees.
Although Palomar Health is a public agency, officials noted that only 3 percent of its revenue comes from property taxes. They said Covert's peers are more appropriately found in private health-care operations than among local government employees.
"Palomar Health's board of directors, a publicly-elected board, uses multiple unbiased sources to determine a fair and competitive salary rate for Mr. Covert," the agency said in a statement. "This includes a third-party consultant and other comparative studies on health care executive compensation."
Scripps Health head Chris Van Gorder made $1.45 million managing $2.4 billion in revenue in 2011. Tim Smith of Sharp Memorial Hospital made $586,013 managing $935.2 million in revenue that year. Kathleen Sellick of Rady Children's Hospital made $907,479 managing $756.6 million in revenue.
Palomar's statement indicated that Covert's pay rose in 2012. That could mean that Covert will take the No. 1 spot on the chart when 2012 compensation is collated and posted (about a year from now).
The statement noted that Covert's base pay was increased to $860,000 from $810,000 in November, retroactive to July 1, 2012. He also received a $110,000 bonus for his leadership in the opening of the $1 billion Palomar Medical Center, which opened in August.
As a result, the agency said Covert's taxable wages for 2012 are $1,010,994.
Officials at the Fremont hospital district did not respond to requests regarding the 2012 taxable wages for the 2011 top-paid local government official, Nancy Farber.
Covert, 63, has been CEO at Palomar since 2003. The 800-square-mile district has 507,000 residents and has facilities in Escondido, Poway, Rancho Peñasquitos, Temecula and San Marcos.
Covert is not alone as a health district executive among the highest-paid local government employees. Five others are among the top 10. The other officials are two San Francisco public transportation executives, two contract surgeons and the retiring city manager of Indian Wells.

Inside the Reporter's Notebook: The CIO shuffle continues; the last E-gov benefits report?
Monday - 5/13/2013, 6:14am EDT
"Inside the Reporter's Notebook," is a bi-weekly dispatch of news and information you may have missed or that slipped through the cracks at conferences, hearings and the like.
This is not a column nor commentary — it's news tidbits, strongly sourced buzz and other items of interest that have happened or are happening in the federal IT and acquisition communities.
As always, I encourage you to submit ideas, suggestions, and, of course, news to me at email@example.com.
The shuffling of the chairs among the ranks of the chief information officers continues, but this time it's not about who's leaving, but who's coming.
Richard McKinney now heads up the Transportation Department's IT shop. McKinney comes to DoT from the Center for Digital Government, where he was a senior fellow. He also was the CIO of Nashville and Davidson County, Tenn., from 1999 to 2005, and then a government technology advisor for Microsoft's state and local government division.
"I am deeply honored to have been appointed as the next CIO for the Department of Transportation," McKinney wrote in a note to staff obtained by Federal News Radio. "This is an exciting time in government IT with all of the new possibilities ushered in by cloud computing, mobility and shared services. Internal business needs as well as public expectations are requiring government to rethink how they effectively manage, deliver and secure digital services and information. I am looking forward to the work and the challenges that lie ahead and the opportunity to work with the entire team at DOT. Quite simply, I can't wait to get started."
McKinney replaces Nitin Pradhan, who left the agency in August after spending three years at DoT.
Along with McKinney, the Agriculture Department and the State Department moved acting CIOs to permanent ones.
At USDA, Cheryl Cook assumed permanent status March 24. She had been acting since Chris Smith left to work for Accenture in March 2012.
Cook also brought in Joyce Hunter to be her deputy CIO of policy and planning on April 8. Hunter spent most of her career in industry, including most recently as the chief executive officer of Vulcan Enterprises, an IT strategic planning consulting organization.
Cook's ascension to permanent CIO is an interesting move. USDA, once again, moves the CIO role to political from career. The agency did that during the Bush administration when Chuck Christopherson was both CIO and chief financial officer.
With the USDA CIO job becoming political, it marks a growing trend across government. Other political positions include the departments of Defense, Veterans Affairs, Homeland Security and Labor, and the Environment Protection Agency.
Over at State, Steven Taylor dropped the acting title April 3. He had been in that role since August when Susan Swart left to work at the International Monetary Fund.
Taylor has worked at State since 1988 when he joined the Foreign Service. He served a management counselor in Cairo and Athens, and he was posted at six other major foreign cities.
There are still several agencies awaiting permanent CIOs, including DHS, VA, NASA, Housing and Urban Development, and the Office of Personnel Management, which just posted its CIO job on USAjobs.gov. Additionally, the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the Transportation Security Administration also are looking for new technology chiefs.
The Office of Management and Budget quietly posted the annual E-Government benefits report to Congress May 9.
The inside joke among those in the federal IT community is the only people who read the 286-page report are the people who write it, a handful of former OMB officials and a few of media nerds (your truly included).
Congress first required the report in the 2005 appropriations to cover fiscal 2006. OMB released it in February 2007.
The reason for a benefits report came from some concern on Capitol Hill about what agencies were really getting for all this money being spent on electronic government.
But the real reason behind the report is a former political appointee didn't like the e-government effort and got some Hill staff to put potentially initiative- killing provisions in the appropriations bill. So, OMB negotiated it down to an annual report on where the money is going and the benefits the programs bring.
As part of its PortfolioStat 2 initiative, OMB in January proposed to eliminate the report, saying "Through the IT Dashboard, the performance benefits of all major IT investments are reported by the 24 CFO Act agencies. The publication of this report is duplicative and outdated given that the information on the IT Dashboard is more current and is reported on a monthly basis."

Allergy medications are available as pills, liquids, inhalers, nasal sprays, eye drops, skin creams and shots (injections). Some allergy medications are available over-the-counter, while others are available by prescription only. Here's a summary of the various types of allergy medications and why they're used.
Corticosteroids help prevent the release of symptom-causing chemicals during an allergic reaction. Most corticosteroid medications require a prescription.
- Nasal corticosteroid sprays prevent and relieve signs and symptoms of allergies such as allergic rhinitis (hay fever). These medications can help with nasal stuffiness, sneezing, and itchy, runny nose. Examples include fluticasone (Flonase), mometasone (Nasonex), budesonide (Rhinocort Aqua), triamcinolone (Nasacort AQ) and beclomethasone (Beconase AQ), fluticasone (Veramyst) and ciclesonide (Omnaris). Side effects can include unpleasant smell or taste, nasal irritation and nosebleeds.
- Inhaled corticosteroids are used to relieve symptoms triggered by airborne allergy-triggering substances (allergens). These medications are generally taken on a daily basis as part of asthma treatment. Examples include fluticasone (Flovent Diskus, Flovent HFA), budesonide (Pulmicort Flexhaler), mometasone (Asmanex Twisthaler), beclomethasone (Qvar) and ciclesonide (Alvesco). Side effects are generally minor and can include mouth and throat irritation and oral yeast infections.
- Corticosteroid eye drops are used to treat severe eye irritation caused by hay fever and allergic conjunctivitis. Examples include dexamethasone (Maxidex, others), fluorometholone (FML) and prednisolone (Pred Forte, Pred Mild). These medications may cause blurred vision. Prolonged use may increase your risk of eye infections, glaucoma and cataracts.
- Corticosteroid skin creams relieve allergic skin reactions such as scaling and itching. Some low-potency corticosteroid creams are available without a prescription, but talk to your doctor before using a topical corticosteroid for more than a few weeks. Examples include hydrocortisone (Cortaid, others) and triamcinolone (Kenalog, others). Side effects can include skin irritation and discoloration. Long-term use, especially of stronger prescription corticosteroids, thins the top layer of the skin, resulting in easy bruising where the cream has been applied. Corticosteroids are available in liquid form that can be useful for skin conditions involving the scalp.
- Oral corticosteroids (pills and liquids) are used to treat severe symptoms caused by all types of allergic reactions. Examples include prednisone (Prednisone Intensol) and prednisolone (Prelone, others). Because they can cause numerous short- and long-term side effects, oral corticosteroids are usually prescribed for short periods of time. Long-term use can cause cataracts, osteoporosis, muscle weakness, stomach ulcers and delayed growth in children. Oral corticosteroids can also worsen hypertension. In some situations, corticosteroids may be given as a shot (injection) rather than pills.
Antihistamines block histamine, a symptom-causing chemical released by your immune system during an allergic reaction.
- Oral antihistamines (pills and liquids) ease symptoms such as swelling, runny nose, itchy or watery eyes, and hives (urticaria). Over-the-counter oral antihistamines include loratadine (Claritin) and cetirizine (Zyrtec). Desloratadine (Clarinex) and levocetirizine (Xyzal) are available by prescription. Fexofenadine (Allegra) is available both over-the-counter and by prescription. Some oral antihistamines may cause dry mouth and drowsiness. Older antihistamines such as diphenhydramine (Benadryl), chlorpheniramine (Chlor-Trimeton) and clemastine (Tavist) are more likely to cause drowsiness and slow your reaction time. These sedating antihistamines shouldn't be taken when driving or doing other potentially dangerous activities.
- Antihistamine nasal sprays help relieve sneezing, itchy or runny nose, sinus congestion, and postnasal drip. Prescription antihistamine nasal sprays include azelastine (Astelin, Astepro) and olopatadine (Patanase). Side effects of antihistamine nasal sprays may include bitter taste, dizziness, drowsiness or fatigue, dry mouth, headache, nasal burning, nosebleed, nausea, runny nose, sore throat, and sneezing.
- Antihistamine eye drops are often combined with other medications such as mast cell stabilizers or decongestants. Antihistamine eyedrops can ease symptoms such as itching, redness and swollen eyes. You may need to use these medications several times a day, because the effects may last only a few hours. Over-the-counter examples include ketotifen (Zaditor, Alaway, others) and pheniramine (Visine-A, Opcon-A, others). Prescription examples include emedastine (Emadine) and olopatadine (Patanol, others). Side effects of these medications can include red eyes, watery eyes, mild stinging or burning and headache. Antihistamine eyedrops increase the risk of eye inflammation when you're wearing contact lenses.
Decongestants are used for quick, temporary relief of nasal and sinus congestion. You may need to avoid decongestants if you're pregnant, if you're an older adult or if you have high blood pressure. Check with your doctor to see which medications are safe for you.
- Oral decongestants (pills and liquids) relieve nasal and sinus congestion caused by hay fever. Many decongestants are available over-the-counter. A common example is pseudoephedrine (Sudafed, others). A number of medications contain a decongestant such as pseudoephedrine combined with other medications. Claritin-D, for example, contains pseudoephedrine and an antihistamine. Oral decongestants can cause a number of side effects, including irritability, fast or irregular heartbeat, dizziness, insomnia, headaches, anxiety, tremors, and increased blood pressure.
- Nasal decongestant sprays and drops relieve nasal and sinus congestion. Examples include phenylephrine (Neo-Synephrine, others) and oxymetazoline (Afrin, others). Nasal decongestants can cause dryness, burning or stinging inside the nose, runny nose, and sneezing. Taking too much of a nasal decongestant can cause irritability, fast or irregular heartbeat, dizziness, insomnia, headaches, anxiety, tremors, and increased blood pressure. Don't use a decongestant nasal spray for more than a week or so, or you may develop severe congestion as soon as you stop taking it (rebound congestion).
- Decongestant eye drops (or combined decongestant-antihistamine eye drops) can temporarily ease symptoms such as red, itchy eyes. Available over-the-counter, examples include tetrahydrozoline (Visine others) and naphazoline (Clear Eyes, others). Side effects include persistent eye redness and damage to blood vessels in the eye when overused. In rare cases, decongestant eye drops can cause a type of sudden (acute) glaucoma.
Other allergy medications
A few other medications work by blocking symptom-causing chemicals released during an allergic reaction.
- Montelukast (Singulair) is a prescription medication that blocks symptom-causing chemicals called leukotrienes. This oral medication relieves allergy signs and symptoms including nasal congestion, runny nose and sneezing. Side effects can include upper respiratory infection in adults, and headache, ear infection and sore throat in children. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has warned that in some people, leukotriene-blocking medications could possibly cause psychological symptoms, such as irritability, anxiousness, insomnia, hallucinations, aggression, depression, and suicidal thinking or behavior.
- Cromolyn (Nasalcrom) is an over-the-counter nasal spray. It prevents the release of histamine and other symptom-causing chemicals during an allergic reaction. This medication works best when you take it before your symptoms start. Some people need to use the spray three or four times a day. Side effects may include nasal stinging or sneezing.
- Mast cell stabilizer eye drops prevent the release of symptom-causing chemicals such as histamine. These prescription medications reduce allergy symptoms such as red, itchy eyes. Examples include cromolyn (Crolom), lodoxamide (Alomide), pemirolast (Alamast) and nedocromil (Alocril). These medications don't usually cause significant side effects.
Immunotherapy injections (allergy shots) may relieve hay fever symptoms or allergic asthma that doesn't improve with medications. Injections may also be an option if you aren't able to take oral allergy medications without having side effects. Over a period of three to five years, you receive regular injections containing allergen extracts. The goal is to stop your body from reacting to specific allergens and decrease or eliminate your need for medications. Immunotherapy may be especially effective if you're allergic to cat dander, dust mites, or pollen produced by trees, grass or weeds. In children with allergic rhinitis, immunotherapy may help prevent the development of asthma. Rarely, immunotherapy injections can cause a life-threatening allergic reaction (anaphylaxis).
Emergency epinephrine shots
Epinephrine shots are used to stop a severe allergic reaction. These self-injecting syringe and needle (autoinjector) devices include Twinject, EpiPen and EpiPen Jr. You may need to carry an autoinjector if you're likely to have a severe allergic reaction to a certain food, such as peanuts, or if you're allergic to bee or wasp venom. A severe allergic reaction can cause anaphylaxis — a sudden, life-threatening reaction. Epinephrine is a form of adrenaline that can help slow the reaction while you seek emergency treatment.
If you do carry an emergency epinephrine shot, replace it by the expiration date or it may not work correctly.
Get your doctor's advice
Work with your doctor to help you avoid problems and choose the most effective allergy medications. Even over-the-counter allergy medications have side effects, and some allergy medications can cause problems when combined with other medications.
It's especially important to talk to your doctor about taking allergy medications if:
- You're pregnant or breast-feeding a child.
- You have a chronic health condition such as diabetes, glaucoma, osteoporosis or high blood pressure.
- You're taking any other medications, including herbal supplements.
- You're treating allergies in a child. Children need different doses of medication or different medications than adults. Some medications, such as corticosteroids, can cause side effects in children.
- You're treating allergies in an older adult. Some allergy medications can cause confusion, urinary symptoms or other side effects in older adults.
- You're already taking an allergy medication that isn't working. Bring the medication with you in its original bottle when you see your doctor.
Keep track of your symptoms, when you use your medications, and how much you use — that way you and your doctor can figure out what works best. You may need to try a few different medications to determine which ones are most effective and have the least bothersome side effects for you.

National Alliance on Mental Illness

Raising Awareness Around the World
By Thomas J. Powell, M.S.W., Ph.D., Mei-Fu Sheng, M.S.W. and Frank Tsen-Yung Wang, Ph.D.
The Taiwan Alliance for the Mentally Ill (TAMI), much like NAMI, produces educational and advocacy materials for individuals and family members impacted by mental illness. There are booklets and articles on recovering from mental illness, medications, stigma and advocacy. In all, TAMI offers 16 programs including a singing contest with the winner going to Hong Kong, and a soccer team that competes in the Homeless World Cup.
Across Taiwan, a country with a population of 23 million, there are 25 mental health service associations affiliated with TAMI. In the Taipei area, the capital of Taiwan, we visited three associations affiliated with TAMI. These associations run extensive service programs, including case management, housing, outreach, education, payee services, occupational services and clubhouse programs. Like the U.S., government funding was directed toward community services. But unlike the U.S., mental health professionals, often based in the hospitals, have strong ties to the TAMI programs. The service responsibilities of the TAMI affiliated associations means that policy advocacy often takes a back seat. However, there is a positive tradeoff. Paid staff are often more available over the long-term to pursue a policy oriented mission. While the inclusion of professionals has its tensions, family members and persons with the illness have a substantial role in governance. They make up the board and they have a major say in the employment of a variety of mental health professionals.
At the Life of Heart family run association we met with Professor Chwen-I Lee, Ph.D., a retired legislator, and Myra Jin in a full-service restaurant owned by the association and run by people living with mental illness. They spoke passionately about stigma and the lack of jobs and inadequate support from the government that are often the result of stigma. As a former legislator, and current law professor, Prof. Lee is active on the legislative and advocacy front. He told us, however, it took him a very long time to "come out of the closet," becoming an advocate only after retirement. Interestingly, both he and Jin felt the developmental disability constituency was doing a better job fighting stigma and that TAMI could learn from them.
In what brought a smile to our faces, both Chwen and Myra spoke of their "sweethearts." In Taiwan, "sweethearts" are much like "loved ones" in the U.S. Myra, a Buddhist, has an innovative answer to stigma. She interprets Buddhism to hold that support for "sweethearts" in this life will result in good karma in future lives. Among Myra's sources of support is NAMI. She attended the NAMI National Convention in Minneapolis. While she had some funding from the Taiwan government she needed to employ her own translator.
Family psychoeducation in Taiwan tends to be based on The Family Link Program (FLP) developed by Dr. Marcus Chiu, a social work professor at the Hong Kong Baptist University. The Taiwan version was further tweaked by Professor Grace Wei of National Taipei University. Professor Marcus notes that while it is not a translation of NAMI's Family-to-Family program, NAMI's program served as a "blueprint" for the Family Link Program. In any event, the "blueprint" would have to be substantially altered to be sensitive to unique Chinese cultural issues.
The largest program we visited was the Taipei Mental Rehabilitation Association and Family Member Fraternity. Over 300 family members, 1,000 individuals living with mental illness and 60 social workers and other mental health professionals attended the event.
We were simply astounded by all that they have accomplished. The first major achievement was an outreach activity in a large attractive general hospital whose inpatient service is a major feeder to the Family Association.
The Family Association met in a dedicated room with a retired nurse coordinator. Ma, a board member, facilitated the group of 13 people on the day we visited. She wisely orchestrated the meeting encouraging some to speak and gently quieting others. The main focus was a couple with a newly hospitalized son. It was easy to see they were riveted by the advice and shared experiences other members offered. One of the participants spoke of her son who, like the new couple's child, would not accept that he had a mental illness. This woman delivered the hugely comforting "not alone" message and was making headway convincing them that you first had to take care of yourself.
The genius of this meeting seemed to be that it attracted a mix of veteran families to meet with those just encountering mental illness, or at least an episode of it acute enough to require hospitalization. The key to getting new families involved appeared to be their identification with veteran members of the group. We were told they didn't have any trouble getting new families to attend these meetings with the support of the hospital. The atmosphere was heartening. The arrangement is attuned to the Chinese ethic of family care, but also a necessary accommodation to the limited availability of community services.
Perhaps in the future NAMI will reach out to international convention attendees by facilitating arrangements with knowledgeable translators. Knowledgeable in this instance means being sensitive to the cultural differences between east and west and the different attitudes families have toward the care of their ill member. Not to reach out in this direction means a lost opportunity to foster the world-wide movement of individuals and families affected by mental illness.
Mental health is a worldwide issue. It will take a joint effort to ensure individuals with mental illness around the world receive the education, care and support they need.
Thomas J. Powell, a professor at the University of Michigan School of Social Work, and Mei-Fu Sheng, of Washtenaw County Community Support and Treatment Services, are both members of NAMI Washtenaw County (Michigan). Frank Tsen-Yung Wang is a professor of the Graduate Institute of Social Work at National Cheng Chi University in Taipei, Taiwan and a member of TAMI.

Smoking and Heart Disease
Smoking and Heart Disease Introduction
Most people associate cigarette smoking with breathing problems and lung cancer. But did you know that smoking is also a major cause of heart disease for men and women?
About 20% of all deaths from heart disease in the U.S. are directly related to cigarette smoking. That's because smoking is a major cause of coronary artery disease.
A person's risk of heart disease and heart attack greatly increases with the number of cigarettes he or she smokes. Smokers continue to increase their risk of heart attack the longer they smoke. People who smoke a pack of cigarettes a day have more than twice the risk of heart attack than nonsmokers. Women who smoke and also take birth control pills increase several times their risk of heart attack, stroke, and peripheral vascular disease.
Cigarette smoke not only affects smokers. When you smoke, the people around you are also at risk for developing health problems, especially children. Environmental tobacco smoke (also called passive smoke or secondhand smoke) affects people who are frequently around smokers. Secondhand smoke can cause chronic respiratory conditions, cancer, and heart disease. It is estimated that around 35,000 nonsmokers die from heart disease each year as a result of exposure to environmental tobacco smoke.

Sad news from the road
We were both saddened to discover that two cyclists riding across Canada to raise money for diabetes were killed this past weekend. What a tragedy and one that hits especially close to home for us since we are planning on covering the same ground next summer. Please take a moment to read the blog written by Daniel, his friend from B.C. and two children. You can also watch their video about the trip. We've posted it below. If you're touched as we are that these men died trying to do something good for others, then please consider making a donation to their cause, the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. And please, whether you're riding the roads on a bicycle or in a car, be careful out there.
