| Survey Finds Number One Food Super Bowl Fans Are Burning to Eat on ...
CINCINNATI, Jan. 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- A new survey of Super Bowl fans finds that the most-wanted foods for game-day may also be the ones most likely avoided -- all due to heartburn. Eighty-percent of frequent heartburn sufferers surveyed said that food is a must have at a Super Bowl party, and that the top three favorites on game day were pizza, nachos and potato chips. Many also said that they already avoid spicy (66%), greasy (57%) and tomato- based foods (39%) -- meaning that the best-loved snacks could also be left on the buffet. Furthermore, heartburn sufferers said the one food they would love to be able to eat on Super Bowl Sunday, without worrying about heartburn, would be pizza, followed closely by hot wings and chili. Now, Jeanne Benedict, entertaining expert from the DIY network has joined forces with Prilosec OTC, the number one selling OTC heartburn medicine to help frequent heartburn-suffering fans have a chance at being heartburn-free up to and through Super Bowl.
Precision-Guided Cancer Weapons
In early 2005, Phil Ogden noticed he was having trouble swallowing food and went to a doctor, thinking he might have acid reflux. The news was far worse. The 66-year-old retired cop from Modesto, Calif., had esophageal cancer, and it had already spread to nearby lymph nodes. Dr. Albert Koong, a radiation oncologist with Stanford University's Comprehensive Cancer Center, asked if Ogden would mind being the first person to undergo a new type of radiation treatment. "The doctor said: 'For the first time in history, we can bomb the equivalent of an outhouse from 30,000 feet with no collateral damage,'" Ogden recalls. .
Bill protects students’ free speech
It would also protect school officials from liability for student expressions of free speech. Six states already have similar laws. On Saturday, Upthegrove joined student journalists, educators and others in a forum held at The News Tribune to discuss the proposed law and related issues. The forum was sponsored by the nonprofit Washington News Council, the Washington Journalism Education Association and Pacific Lutheran University's communications department. Students on the panel and in the audience spoke about their passion for exercising their freedom of speech – passion that can sometimes give school officials heartburn. "In my math class, in English class, I have to write what they want me to," said Kirsten Nee, a sophomore at Franklin Pierce High School.
