The term "greatest comedy of all time" gets thrown around a lot, and the laurels of this statement frequently fall on the shoulders of SOME LIKE IT HOT. That's quite a weight to bear, and when you think about what tickles your funny bone you don't immediately think of the stylings of a film from 1959. If you haven't already taken the plunge to sit down with this Billy Wilder classic, I promise that you will not be disappointed.
Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon, and Marilyn Monroe have never been better in this tale of two struggling musicians who witness a mob hit and are forced to hit the road with an all-female traveling band in the midst of Prohibition. It's Curtis/Lemmon in drag followed by nonstop situational humor: Monroe as a boozy floozy! Lemmon being wooed by a male millionaire! Men dressed as women sneaking in hooch on a train full of women and musical instruments! If seeing these three titans of cinema on display under the Academy Award-winning guidance of the great Billy Wilder isn't enough for you, well then Cinema Cocktails is here to ease you into it in non-Prohibition-style.
Alamo Beverage Director (and master mixologist) Bill Norris is turning his sights towards Champagne mixes and Manhattans made in hot water bottles. So, grab a drink, dress yourself up (in whatever gender you prefer), and get yourself ready for (undeniably) the greatest comedy of all time...now with booze! (Greg MacLennan)
Here are the SOME LIKE IT HOT specially themed cocktails for your imbibing pleasure:
Spats' Milk Punch
Hide your drinking from the fuzz with this rich and spicy milk punch. Whiskey, Allspice Dram, vanilla and a hint of sugar, topped off with fresh nutmeg.
Sugar's Champagne Cocktail
Sparkling wine, sweetened with honey and a touch of bitters, finished off with some strawberry decolletage.
Party in Berth 7
A bourbon Manhattan, easy on the vermouth, and over ice. Just like a slumber party with the Society Syncopators.

A second meeting of county officials and tourism partners was recently conducted at the College of Eastern Prehistoric Museum and Castle Country Regional Information Center.
The group gathered from west Emery County and included elected officials, tourism related representatives and business from Castle Dale, Ferron and Huntington.
The first gathering in April hosted tourism officials from the Green River area.
The meeting was organized by Kathy Hanna-Smith and Chanel Atwood, both of the Carbon County Travel Bureau.
The focus of the latest meeting was partnering.
The discussion centered around businesses and agencies joining ranks to outline opportunities, values and discuss resources available to expand services.
Atwood, who is the new informational specialist, also echoed the partnering theme, discussing her aspirations of networking with government agencies and businesses.
"Most people who come here and stop at the museum are from the Wasatch Front. We are working hard at educating them," said the informational specialist.
Atwood talked about increasing efforts to distribute brochures and also acting as tour guides encouraging people to explore the many opportunities the area provides.
"We are trying to project the wonderful recreational opportunities that are available and, rather than stay for a couple hours, work at keeping the guests that are here for a couple days," stated Atwood.
Atwood also talked about encouraging people to travel down U.S. Highway 10 and trying to keep people in the area longer.
Discussion among members of the assembled group also involved the Castle Valley Pageant coming to the area July 25.
A brochure highlighting the event is available at the CEU museum.
Hanna-Smith discussed recent promotional efforts at a tourism conference in Grand Junction, Colo.
Hanna-Smith also addressed the matching grants the agency has received to improve and update the photos and texts at three of the areas rest stops.
The location include the rest stops at Emery, Tucker and Thompson.
A lot of discussion also centered around the Super Host program and alternative methods of training the front lines for giving good, accurate and friendly advice as well as answers to visitors in the area.

The Dodgers, unsurprisingly, picked up Manny's option almost right away. The departure of Belliard will probably please fans who don't have to see Torre play him in crucial games anymore.
It appears that the Dodgers chief offseason goals will be starting pitching - they lose Wolf, Padilla, Garland and Weaver and will need pitchers to fill out the rotation after Billingsley, Kuroda and Kershaw - and second base, where they have absolutely nothing right now - not even any bench players. The real question is how much money they have to spend with the McCourts divorce.
I'll have more later.

There is no separate application for international students. International students follow essentially the same procedures as all students applying to Hamilton. We use the Common Application. Please note that all official documents must be translated, preferably by an official agency if the originals are not in English.
Learn about the most recent class admitted to Hamilton.
Yes. If Hamilton is your first choice, you should apply under one of our Early Decision Plans. The admission deadlines for Early Decision are November 15 (Early Decision Plan I) or January 1 (Early Decision Plan II). Students may also convert their application to Early Decision Plan II anytime before February 1. Please note that Early Decision at Hamilton is a binding agreement. If accepted under one of our Early Decision Plans, a student must withdraw all other applications and make a commitment to enroll at Hamilton College. Failure to do so may jeopardize your admission to Hamilton as well as other colleges.
Interested international students may apply to transfer to Hamilton College, but please note that we have very limited financial aid for international students. Therefore, international students with financial need may be at a competitive disadvantage. Prospective transfer students are advised to apply after successfully completing one full semester at a college or university. The maximum number of times a student can be considered for admission to Hamilton College, including first-year or transfer admission, is three.
Pleased visit our Fee Waiver page to see if you are eligible for one. Most eligible international students will fit into the final category listed.
The Certificate of Finances is a document created by the College Board for international students applying to U.S. colleges. All international citizens must submit this form at the time of application (unless you are a permanent resident of the U.S., or hold dual citizenship with the U.S.), or your file will remain incomplete, regardless of whether or not you are applying for financial aid. More information about the financial aid application process can be found here.
What standardized tests does Hamilton require?
Hamilton is SAT optional, but not testing optional. So, you still need to submit some form of standardized tests. If you do not submit either the SAT or the ACT, you may submit a combination of scores that can include AP exams, SAT Reasoning Test, SAT Subject Tests, IB final exam results* or the TOEFL or IELTS. Please refer to our list of acceptable subject exams that may be used, as well as the list of test submission deadlines.
*Please note that IB predicted scores will not fulfill the testing requirement.
All official test scores must be sent directly to our office. For a list of testing centers in your country or for more information regarding standardized tests you may wish to contact the following organizations:
All international students must submit a TOEFL or IELTS in addition to the general standardized testing requirement. While Hamilton does not have a specific score requirement for these English proficiency tests, we recommend a minimum score of 100 on the internet-based TOEFL exam (or 600 on the paper-based TOEFL) or an overall band score of 7.0 for the IELTS.
Hamilton will waive the English Proficiency requirement for students whose primary language is English, students who have studied at a school with an English curriculum for at least three full years of instruction, students who score above 700 on the critical reading section of the SAT Reasoning Test, students who are taking A-1 IB English, or students who are taking A-level English exams.
Are interviews available for international students who cannot visit campus?
Hamilton does offer off-campus interviews with alumni in select international locations. These interviews provide you with the opportunity to learn more about Hamilton and for Hamilton to learn more about you, but are not required. If we are unable to accommodate your off-campus interview request with an alumni admission volunteer, you are welcome to submit a video interview.
Please complete the off-campus interview request form to request an off-campus interview with an alumni admission volunteer or to receive directions for submitting a video interview to the admission office.
Each case is different. Although Hamilton seeks to enroll well-rounded students, we realize that in many countries extracurricular activities are not a priority. If you have been an active member of a club or organization, participated in community service projects, held a job, played sports, etc., please make sure to mention these in your application. If you are interested in pursuing the visual and performing arts at Hamilton, we welcome supplementary materials that follow our guidelines.
If you need to communicate with the admission officer who is responsible for your area (e.g. Canada, India, etc.), please visit the Admission Office staff page.

Most of us don't like other people telling us how to live our lives. I suppose there are those few that would approve of big brother coming in and taking over things, because to them security is more important than freedom.
We feel the same about our local institutions. Judging by what has gone on concerning land use issues around our area over the years, when the federal government tries to exercise power over what local people feel is their domain, there is a fight and often a big one.
Of all the institutions that a community treasures the most, schools are the gem most everyone tries to protect from the national governments influence.
When the No Child Left Behind laws were passed a few years ago, experts predicted that the end result would be more control by the feds in education. And now, after a few years of that act being in force, school districts are beginning to face the wrath of the law.
While a lot of that seems far away to Carbonites, it isn't. Carbon High is the highest profile school in the county and after failing to meet AYP for two years in a row, a third year on that list could create some problems as it applies to NCLB laws.
None of us want to see our schools affected by federal mandates anymore than has already been put in place via the purse strings they control. That is why it is important for Carbon High to get past AYP this next year.
When something goes wrong in the schools, it is easy to blame teachers and administrators for the failure. But, it is the users of the service that also have a large responsibility to make things work. By users I mean not only the students, but also their parents.
Carbon failed AYP this past year largely because of math scores and attendance problems.
Math is a skill and a learning process that requires a lot of building blocks. Those blocks have to be set in place by teachers in the classroom, but the mortar that fits them together comes from the home, where students take their homework to do. Parents must do a better job of working with their kids not only on the work that must be done on the paper, but in reinforcing how important math is as a skill, that will be used in their childrens future.
Now I know the tune. I have heard parents say it many times.
"When in their life will they ever use this algebra (or geometry, or advance algebra, etc.)," parents will often murmur. I heard my wife do it many times with my youngest son as she tried to figure out what he was supposed to do for the next day when he was in high school.
The fact is that the world is becoming ever more technological, and all that advanced technology requires various forms of math and numbers to design and operate these kinds of systems. While not every kid will turn into an electronic, computer and mechanical engineer, knowing how things operate will be a large part of our economy in the future. And not knowing it will certainly mean a lower tear job, if one exists at all.
But even if parents balk at the idea they need to help with math, I have no idea how they can back off helping with the attendance problems their children might have. With the truancy laws the way they are, I am not sure how anyone would dare to let their kids not be in school when they should be, but some apparently do. The laws are strict and can result in some pretty strong penalties if they don't require their kids to attend school.
It's time for parents to wake up and realize that NCLB can and will affect their kids and future generations of students as well. And unless the law is rescinded or not authorized again, it is something we will all have to live and deal with.
And how much we have to struggle with it is up to those who attend our schools today and their parents.

From SPECIAL REPORTS
Piedmont Healthcare is revealing community health needs at a series of community town hall meetings around the metro Atlanta region, including one Tuesday at Central Educational Center in Newnan.
The meeting will be held at 6 p.m. at CEC, 160 Martin Luther King Jr. Drive.
"We'll be revealing health needs specific to Coweta County and the surrounding areas such as diabetes, obesity, access to care, appropriate use of the ER and more," said Amanda Bartlett, Piedmont Healthcare spokesperson.
Piedmont Healthcare is holding a series of town hall meetings in the areas surrounding each of the Piedmont-affiliated hospitals throughout Georgia.
Results from recent community health needs assessments specific to each hospital's community will be discussed, she said.
"It is important to know where our communities stand in terms of health needs," said Holly Lang, director of community benefit at Piedmont Healthcare.
"By sharing our findings with the public and developing programs to address these needs, together we'll be able to tackle these issues and make our communities healthier."
In addition to sharing the findings of the recent community health needs assessments, representatives from Piedmont will discuss future health programs to address the identified health needs for each community.
"Our assessments show there is a wide variety of health issues to address," said Lang. "The most common issues include access to care, obesity, preventable hospital readmissions, diabetes and heart disease. Now, we need to work as a community to proactively address these shared concerns."
Tuesday's town hall meeting at CEC is open to the public.
Those looking to attend and participate in the community health needs discussion should reserve seats by calling 678-842-6131.
Piedmont officials ask that those planning to attend specify if special auxiliary needs are required such as interpreters so arrangements can be made.

An introduction to the Google Books Partner Programme
There are two components to the Google Books Partner Programme:
The Preview Programme is a free marketing programme that enables publishers and authors to promote their books online, through Google Books. By submitting your book, you'll make it discoverable to Google users from around the world.
When a reader finds your book on Google Books, they'll see a limited preview of your book, as well as a series of links if they want to purchase your title at major online retailers. You can also add a customised link to the book's listing on your own website.
Additionally, partners in some countries can sell digital editions of their books on Google Play, earning revenue whenever users purchase their eBooks. Books must be made previewable on Google Books in order to be sold on Google Play. Learn more about the process of selling books.
How Google Books works
We scan the full text of your book to make each word of your title a possible result for a search on Google Books. This means that if the word "guitar" appears in a page of your book, it would appear as a result for a user searching the word [guitar]. However, even though we index all pages of your title, you can control the percentage of your book that a user will be able to browse.
We've also integrated the Google Books index with the index of Google Web Search, so our users from all around the world will be able to discover your books.
Your content is protected
We host all book content on our secure servers. We disable the print, cut, copy and save functionality on all preview pages displaying book content, in order to protect your material.
Google also protects your content by limiting the number of pages that are shown to users. You can choose to make from 20% to 100% of your book's content browsable. Partners can also choose to make a PDF of their book available to users for download.
If you sell books on Google Play, you can choose to apply DRM (Digital Rights Management) to your eBooks.
You will retain your copyright. Google doesn't assume any copyright to your material.
Your benefits
Making your books available on Google Books helps them become easier for potential readers to find. People who find the preview useful may go on to purchase the entire book.
On the preview page for your book, we display a set of links to buy the book at the websites of major retailers, as well as to a site of your choice. These links are not paid for by the sites featured and clicking a link to purchase your book at an online retailer won't generate any revenue directly.
The exception is if you also make the book available for sale on Google Play. Learn more about selling your books through Google.
How to submit your book
After you create a partner account, you'll be able to access the Partner Center, an online interface for submitting and managing your books. You can upload files in either PDF or ePub format.

WASHINGTON, D.C. (WUSA) - We asked House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer the two questions we've been all of our representatives and Senators in light of the fiscal cliff negations. Number one...
"Are you willing to give up part or all or your salary until a decision is made?"
And number two:
"Are you willing to work vacation-free and recess-free until a decision is made?"
Speaker John Beoner and President Obama have exchanged new offers in their private talks. The White House has offered to lower its request for new tax revenue .
Obama says he won't sign a deal without letting the Bush era tax cuts for the wealthy expire. But GOP leaders want the President to identify spending cuts. Congressman Hoyer says if Republicans want spending cuts, they should propose them themselves.
Hoyer is says further cuts to federal employees pay and benefits should not be part of the negotiation.
See the above video for Peggy Fox's conversation with Steny Hoyer.

Know the warning signs of diabetes - that's the message of a new public awareness campaign launched by the Utah Department of Health Diabetes Prevention and Control Program (DPCP) on March 3.
The campaign aims to reduce the number of Utahns with undiagnosed diabetes by increasing knowledge of the risk factors and symptoms of the disease. Television and radio ads will be encouraging the public to get screened for diabetes at free clinics throughout Utah in March.
According to the DPCP, about 40,000 Utahns don't know they have diabetes, and the disease is slowly affecting their bodies. If left untreated or uncontrolled, diabetes can cause heart attack, stroke, blindness, amputation, kidney disease and other serious complications.
"Complications from uncontrolled or untreated diabetes affects thousands of Utahns every year," said Nancy Neff, DPCP manager. "A simple increase in testing and a correlating decrease in undiagnosed diabetes could significantly reduce complications and improve many lives."
The public awareness campaign targets all Utahns, but places special emphasis on those 45 and older, those who are already at a high risk for diabetes, as well as those who will soon be at high risk. Risk factors for diabetes include:
Older than 45
Family history
Ethnic descent
Women who have had a baby weighing more than nine pounds at birth
Neff reminds Utahns that even those not at high risk can get diabetes. She says to watch for the warning signs: blurry vision, tingling or numbness in the hands or feet, constant fatigue, frequent thirst and frequent urination.
To help encourage all Utahns to get screened for diabetes, the DPCP, American Diabetes Association (ADA) and area health care providers and organizations have partnered to provide and promote free diabetes screenings throughout Utah during March ALERT.
For information call the Utah Department of Health Resource Line at 1-888-222-2542 or the ADA at 1-888-DIABETES for a list of screening dates, times and locations.

In April 1957, when the first issue of Kamera was ready for the printers, Pamela Green and Harrison Marks decided to go to the Isles of Scilly again — this time taking Marie Deveraux and Lorraine Burnett to work with them. The object of which was not only to take a selection of nudes for their new magazine but also for a hardcover book entitled Kamera on Location featuring outdoor nudes only. It was their most successful book by far which is reflected in the high price a copy demands today.
In the forward of the book, George Harrison Marks talks about going to the Hebrides. According to Pamela's biography, they went to the Isles of Scilly, which actually makes more sense. For all you trivia buffs, the long black wig Pamela occasionally wears in the book was originally made for the French prima ballerina Ludmilla Tchérina, who wore it for her role as Giulietta in the Powell and Pressburger film The Tales of Hoffman.

Mergers, acquisitions, downsizing, restructuring, rapid expansion, and globalization have increased the challenges of maintaining
a strong system of internal controls. Likewise, the expansion of computers has drastically changed the speed with which fraud
can occur.
As a result, employee theft is on the rise. The Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE), in its 2006 Report to the Nation on Occupational Fraud and Abuse, estimates that fraud costs U.S. businesses more than $650 billion annually. The cost of fraud comes right off a company's
bottom line. Purchasing schemes involving kickbacks, accounts payable fraud involving ghost vendors, payroll and check fraud,
or inventory theft can reduce corporate profits by millions of dollars.

theft loss.

· Free Consultation with Jessica Bush. We will cover everything from time-line's, family, important photo shots, likes & dis-likes, etc.
Package B - $1350.00 plus tax ($1431.00)
· Full day of Service up to 11 hours. Includes all of what Package A includes but will allow for more photo-journalist shots, more candid and more fun reception shots.

· 3 DVD's with copyright release. High resolution images only which allows you to print any re-prints, enlargements, gifts, photo books, etc. at the convenience of your own home through digital labs for now until forever. Extra dvd's are nice because the bride's parents gets one and the groom's parents receive one which are great as they are normally the ones printing the most besides the couple.
· Free Consultation with Jessica Bush. We will cover everything from time-line's, family, important photo shots, likes & dis-likes, etc.
Things to Remember on Your Wedding Day
· I normally try to start about 2 hours prior to a wedding. Pictures are a very important part of your day. Sometimes it may not seem like it that day, but pictures are always the first thought after the wedding that you look forward to seeing. Starting 2 hours prior to the wedding allow for some great getting ready photos, a chance to get some with the bride & girls and then some with the groom & guys. This also cuts down on a lot of time after the wedding; which won't be keeping the guests as long. Times and changes can always be altered and customized at consultation.
· Remember that the best part of the day for pictures is 2 hours before sunrise and sunset. While this is not always feasible with weddings, please consider this when setting your wedding time. On hot summer days from especially May-September, please remember that the sun is at its worst from like 1-3 pm. It also does not get dark until about 9 o'clock in the summer time. Therefore, a later wedding is much cooler and allows for better pictures. I would say a wedding between 3-5 pm will be much cooler and allow for much better photos without squinting. Any questions or would like my professional opinion, please contact me.
· I have done over 150 weddings now and that number is sure to climb with weddings every weekend. I understand that every wedding is different and unique and I am willing to customize every couple's ideas into their portraits. This is why a consultation is very important and will allow me to get a better feel for what you really want and expect from your portraits and your experience with Jessica Bush Photography.
· With Jessica Bush Photography you will get exceptional proofs. Every proof is edited and adjusted for lighting, cropping, blemishes, etc. Enhancements, sepia, black & white's, edging and fading are all included in the price. I normally take at least double the photos I need for each package to ensure that I got 300 or 500 gorgeous prints. Proofs for the albums are printed through a high-quality digital photo lab.
· Consultations are very important if able. I understand that some brides may have too far of a distance to meet in person and then a phone consultation is a must. I feel that by meeting in person that it allows for a much more comfortable experience for both the photographer and bride and groom. Consultations allow for time to go over time-lines, important shots for the bride & groom, important family shots, and names of family members help things go much quicker and smoother. We also go over bridal party, important themes, and a photo slideshow to give the photographer ideas of things that you love and dis-like. This is very important in getting that feel of your own uniqueness and personalities.
Senior portraits are so important. This is the time in your life that you look your best and want to capture that moment. This is also an important milestone that you have crossed and a time when things change dramatically. Let Jessica Bush Photography capture that moment for you.

Ello' my eyepatched friends. I stumbled upon this: http://www.realmcrafter.com and have been doing a little dabbling to create an online church of Pasta! It'll be moddled after the lego church and you'll be able to be a priest, pirate, or pasta chef and run around the church discussing the FSM or go out on the highseas for a little bit of light adventuring (though it's mostly a glorified chatroom). If anyones interested in helping or the idea itself tell me!
Note that I'm also going to need a server once it's all done, my poor computer won't be able to handle it so if anyone wants to host it please pm me.[/u]

Homosexual activists and sympathizers at the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) want their agency's "gay" awareness training to be expanded government wide, according to a report in the Washington Times. Officials at the USDA have asked the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), which supervises policies for federal employees, to mandate that all departments of the federal government implement its sensitivity training, according to a USDA internal newsletter.
Leading the charge is Agriculture Secretary Thomas Vilsack (pictured), a former Democratic governor of Iowa, who has launched a "Cultural Transformation" campaign across his department that features a Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender [LGBT] Special Emphasis Program.

(Also see the "Skin Allergy" section of this Web site.)
What Is Chronic Urticaria?
You probably are familiar with hives—red, swollen and very itchy welts that form on the skin. The scientific name for hives is urticaria. About 20 percent of the population develop them at some time in their lives. Hives often appear suddenly, and last only a few hours—or seldom more than six weeks. Each hive lasts no more than 24 hours, and often goes away in 2 to 4 hours.
For some people, though, the hives don't go away, or they go away then recur frequently. This may go on for months or, rarely, for years. This is called chronic urticaria. The condition is not life-threatening. For people who have it, though, it can cause distress and disability.
Chronic urticaria occurs in both sexes but seems to be somewhat more common in middle-aged women. About 30 percent of adults with chronic urticaria also have angioedema. Areas of widely spread swelling occur, and most often affect the lips or eyelids.
What Causes Chronic Urticaria?
Hives are an allergic-like reaction of the skin to a usually harmless substance. Acute cases of hives can be triggered by any number of substances. Common causes are medications, foods, insect bites or stings.
The cause of chronic urticaria is often hard to pinpoint. Although the cause is currently unknown, it is thought to be related to a person's own immune system triggering the reaction.
Some types of chronic urticaria worsen with increased blood flow as a result of heat, exertion, emotional stress, alcoholic drinks, fever or hyperthyroidism. Increases in hives are fairly common during premenstrual periods as well. Some people get pressure urticaria on certain parts of the body as a result of the work they do. People who sit all day can get hives on their buttocks. When people wear their belts too tight, they can get pressure urticaria around the waist.
People with cholinergic urticaria get hives with heat, exercise or emotional stress. Small welts appear within a larger area of redness, often on the neck or upper chest.
For those who get angioedema, it usually affects only the lips or eyelids. In rare cases, though, it can affect the throat. People who have trouble swallowing or breathing should seek emergency care promptly.
How Is Chronic Urticaria Diagnosed?
Diagnosis begins with a careful medical history and physical exam. Your doctor will check first to make sure chronic hives are not a symptom of a more serious illness such as hepatitis or hyperthyroidism.
A few patients with chronic hives have urticarial vasculitis. Small blood vessels in the skin are inflamed. The hives don't itch quite as much, but they last longer, the area stays red after the hives are gone, and the patient may have aching joints or fever. These symptoms may suggest systemic lupus erythematosus or possibly cancer, but these associations are extremely rare.
Once other illnesses are ruled out, the doctor will ask questions about contact with substances that could have caused an allergic reaction. Some questions will be about your activities. About 15 to 20 percent of chronic causes are physical, triggered by cold, heat, light or exercise.
If the medical history does not suggest what is causing the hives, other measures are taken:
The patient is asked to keep a diary for a week or two, recording all activities, everything ingested, and when and where hives occur. This may suggest the cause.
The doctor may order lab tests. If urticarial vasculitis is suspected, a skin biopsy might be ordered.
Sometimes the patient is put on an allergen elimination diet. The diet is free of the foods that are common causes of allergic reactions. Food reactivity is confirmed if symptoms go away and reoccur once the food is reintroduced. The specific food causing the problem is pinpointed by modifying the patient's diet. Often, though, these measures do not identify the specific cause of chronic hives. In these cases the disease is called "idiopathic." Experts now think the cause may be antibodies in the blood that act against the body's own tissues.
What Can I Do About Chronic Urticaria?
Avoid the cause, if it is known, to prevent the reaction. When the cause is not known, you must simply wait for the condition to go away over time.
If angioedema is a problem, limit exposure to heat, exertion, emotional stress, alcoholic drinks and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory pain relievers such as aspirin. These can aggravate the allergic response.
Take medications to control the itching. They provide excellent relief in most patients:
Most people now use non-sedating antihistamines: astemizole (Hismanal), loratadine (Claritin), fexofenadine (Allegra) and cetirizine (Zyrtec). They block what are called H1 receptors in tissue. If these medications don't help, the antihistamines cimetidine or ranitidine may be added; they block H2 receptors. The combination of the two types of blockers sometimes provides better relief. Treatment must be individualized and monitored under close medical supervision.
For more severe urticaria, the more potent antihistamines, hydroxyzine and doxepin, may be used. They do cause drowsiness and other side effects, but the side effects lessen with continued use.
Corticosteroid medications such as prednisone will control urticaria. They are seldom used because of serious side effects with prolonged use. Sometimes they are needed to treat pressure urticaria or urticarial vasculitis. Doctors prescribe the lowest possible effective dose for the shortest period of time.
Epinephrine injections may be given for people with angioedema, especially when the throat is swollen.
Much research on urticaria is underway. This will lead to even better treatment in the future. Several new drugs are awaiting approval for use in the United States to treat hives. They act on different skin cells or block mediators other than histamine and will offer another choice for people who get poor relief from current products.

I'm a smoker trying to become a non-smoker again.I tried to quit once, about six months ago, and after four days I gave into my urges and smoked a cigarette. I'm now on day five of my new non-smoking life and it's one of the hardest things I've ever tried to do. I made it through eight long, painful weeks of bootcamp. A time that challenged every physical and mental thread of my being. One that forced me to face my greatest fears and overcome them. And after all that stopping smoking is going to be my most difficult challenge. First, let me give you a little background on all this smoking. I'd tried smoking once when I was 12. I hated it. It made me sick to my stomach, and I carried around the guilt of lying to my parents for days afterward. That experience made me never want to touch the cancer sticks again. Fastforward 14 years to March 2003. I was hanging out with some friends partaking in a friendly drink or two. Out of nowhere came this desire to try a cigarette. Where this came from I have no idea. I'd spent all of my life giving my smoking friends and family the business about the disgusting habit and giving lectures on how bad it was for them (insert every bad thing about smoking here ... because I've said it). So from that fateful day last March till now, I've been smoking. At first it didn't seem that bad and I wasn't buying my own cigarettes. I'd just bum a few from various friends when I wanted one. That didn't last very long. By July, I was buying my own and smoking almost a pack a day. It's amazing how that happens - you don't even realize it. Of course, this information began to trickle back to my family in Cleveland. My brother vowed to get a picture of me with a cigarette, so the next time I gave him heck about smoking he could throw it back at me. Same goes with everyone else in the family. I can't tell you how many times I heard the phrase, "I never want to hear anything from you again about smoking," while I was home to celebrate my sister's graduation in May. Now nearly a year has passed and I've known for a while that I must quit smoking. What really triggered me to take action was my friend Anthony's big moving day. We were heaving boxes and furniture up three flights of stairs and the only thing I could feel was a stuffy pain in my chest. I knew it was from the cigarettes. And it scared me. I'm too young to be dealing with chest pains. And too young to be unable to take a deep breath without hacking up a lung. There's also the cost of smoking to consider. At a pack a day the average monthly cost is around $95. I'm giving away almost $1,200 a year to people who make my hands and clothes stink, make my chest hurt and put my friends in compromising positions by asking them be around my second-hand smoke. What am I thinking?! That's what I keep asking myself. So now, when I get a really strong urge to smoke I chew a piece of gum. And talking about it seems to help too. At first I thought it would make me want one more, but it's helping. The talking distracts me from the physical need. In addition to the physical desire, comes the mental struggle as well. This is one area that doesn't seem to be addressed in any of the Web sites I've visited over the last few days. How do you break the routine and not miss it? For example, almost any time I got in the car, I'd light up. Now that I'm not, I really miss it. I'm not sure what to do with myself. Same goes for the cigarette after eating and the mid-evening break at work. What do I do with all this free time?! So, those are just a few of the hurdles I'm trying to overcome. Right now I feel pretty strong. I'm trying to stay optimistic that with every passing day, this desire will fade more and more. And hopefully in a month, I won't wake up anymore with the overwhelming urge to light one up. Wish me luck. Heather Middleton is the News Daily page designer. She can be reached at email@example.com

Easy and inexpensive way to safely add carbon dioxide to your planted aquarium. Unlike other yeast fermentation systems that rely on passive CO2 diffusion, the Turbo CO2 Bio-System features a suction cup mounted adjustable venturi powerhead. Fine bubbles of CO2 are injected directly into the water column for maximum CO2 supplementation. The result is vibrant plant growth and vitality. Adjustable powerhead allows controlled CO2 diffusion into aquarium. Simply switch off the powerhead or connect to timer to prevent unwanted nighttime pH drop. Natural yeast fermentation process provides a steady supply of CO2 for up to one month. Recommended for aquariums up to 40 gallons.

|Spartans Win on Poarch's Walk-Off
|Written by Mike Kelly
|Saturday, 30 April 2011 18:54
The South Caldwell Spartans defeated Draughn 2-1 Saturday afternoon in Sawmills.
The Spartans (20-2) won the game, thanks to Dylan Poarch, who belted a game-winning, walk-off home run in the bottom of the seventh inning in their regular-season finale. The Spartans, who won the East Rutherford Easter Tournament Thursday night, will begin Northwestern 3A/4A Conference tournament play this week.
NOTES: The top seeds will host the first round of tournament games beginning on Tuesday. Wednesday and Thursday are possible rain dates. The semi-finals and finals will be played at MS Deal Stadium in Granite Falls, NC (Friday, May 6 and Saturday, May 7). Monday, May 9 is a possible rain date. The state playoffs selections will be announced on Tuesday, May 10; the state playoffs begins Friday, May 13......If the Pioneers get the No.2 seed, they would host the No.3 seed from the MEGA 7 Conference in the opening round of the state playoffs. But if they don't get the No.2 seed, the Pioneers could possibly receive a wildcard bid. And if they are selected, they would open the playoffs on the road, most likely against a No.1 seed.
