Tuesday, July 6, 2010 – Daily News – 5B NYC anglophiles aflutter ahead of queen’s visit NEW YORK (AP) — The biggest clue that New Yorkers were going a little royalty-crazy was when someone stopped Tony Packwood on a city bus after hearing his British accent to ask him if he was here to see the queen. ‘‘Why would I come here to see the queen?’’ he marveled Monday at the British food shop where he works in Manhattan. Customers coming to Carry on Tea & Sympathy have been ask- ing about Queen Elizabeth II’s upcoming trip to New York City, her first in 34 years. Though her visit is scheduled to last just five hours, her arrival Tuesday morn- ing has sent some anglophiles aflutter. ‘‘The Americans seem to be a lot more psyched than the Eng- lish,’’ said Packwood, a Liverpool native, surrounded by shelves of specialty teas, Cadbury chocolates and ornate tea pots. A British-flag tea cozy and a mosaic depicting the queen hang nearby. ‘‘We’re kind of brought up with it — it’s not that big an event. But you guys love it,’’ he said. Teens benefit from later school day CHICAGO (AP) — Giving teens 30 extra minutes to start their school day leads to more alertness in class, better moods, less tardiness, and even healthier breakfasts, a small study found. ‘‘The results were stunning. There’s no other word to use,’’ said Patricia Moss, academic dean at the Rhode Island boarding school where the study was done. ‘‘We didn’t think we’d get that much bang for the buck.’’ The results appear in July’s Archives of Pediatrics & Ado- lescent Medicine. The results mirror those at a few schools that have delayed starting times more than half an hour. Researchers say there’s a reason why even 30 minutes can make a big difference. Teens tend to be in their deepest sleep around dawn — when they typically need to arise for school. Interrupting that sleep can leave them groggy, especially since they also tend to have trouble falling asleep before 11 p.m. ‘‘There’s biological science to this that I think provides com- pelling evidence as to why this makes sense,’’ said Brown Uni- versity sleep researcher Dr. Judith Owens, the study’s lead author and a pediatrician at Hasbro Children’s Hospital in Prov- idence, R.I. An Archives editorial said the study adds to ‘‘a growing body of evidence that changing the start time for high schools is good for adolescents.’’ The fact that the study was in the exclusive setting of St. George’s School in Middletown, R.I., doesn’t necessarily weak- en the results. Owens acknowledged that there might be more hurdles to overcome at poorer, public schools, including busing schedules, parents’ work hours and daycare for younger sib- lings. While these issues have killed many proposals elsewhere, some public high schools including those in Minneapolis and West Des Moines have adopted later starting times. Mel Riddile, an associate director at the National Associa- tion of Secondary School Principals, favors later class times for teens but said most districts oppose it. ‘‘It’s about adult convenience, it’s not about learning,’’ he said. ‘‘With budget cuts, it’s going to make it more difficult to get this done.’’ Many parents and teachers at St. George’s were opposed but reluctantly agreed to the study after a presentation by Owens, whose daughter was a junior there. Overall, 201 high school students completed sleep habit sur- veys before and after the nine-week experiment last year. The results were so impressive that the school made the change per- manent, Moss said. Starting times were shifted from 8 to 8:30. All class times were cut 5 to 10 minutes to avoid a longer school day that would interfere with after-school activities. Moss said improve- ments in student alertness made up for that lost instruction time. The portion of students reporting at least eight hours of sleep on school nights jumped from about 16 percent to almost 55 percent. Reports of daytime sleepiness dropped substantially, from 49 percent to 20 percent. First-period tardies fell by almost half, students reported feeling less depressed or irritated during the day, health center rest visits dropped substantially; and the number of hot break- fasts served more than doubled. Moss said the healthier break- fast probably aided classtime alertness. Recent graduate Garrett Sider, 18, used the extra time for sleep. He noticed kids took part more often in morning classes with the later start time. ‘‘It was a positive thing for the entire school,’’ he said. The study was designed to look at changes in sleep habits and behavior and didn’t examine academic performance. It also lacked a control group of students who didn’t experience a change in school start times — another limitation. Still, the researchers said the results show delaying school starting times is worthwhile. ‘‘We see her every day on our money.’’ Some New York residents were hoping to catch a glimpse of the 84-year-old monarch, who will be visiting ground zero for the first time and making her first address in over half a century to the U.N. General Assembly. Law student Joey Pegram, of Brooklyn, said she wished she could see the queen — just like she did when the monarch’s grandson Prince Harry was in New York to play a charity polo match. Pegram arrived hours before the match, and ended up with a front-row view when the prince took a tumble from his horse. A love of British royalty was a staple at her American home growing up, the 24-year-old said. Her mother’s deep admiration of Princess Diana and her charitable works made an impression on Pegram. ‘‘There’s like a one-in-a-mil- lion chance to be born with that,’’ Pegram said Monday. ‘‘Some people use it to do good, and some people use it to make scandal.

I think she’s quite cool,’’ said waitress Natasha Kaser, originally from Thakeham Village in West Sussex. Kaser did admit that most of her knowledge of the royal family came from what she called ‘‘trashy magazines.’’ CREAMS, SALTS, MOISTURIZERS, GIFT SETS www.aerosilknatural.com SPA SKIN CARE PRODUCTS ALL NATURAL INGREDIENTS
