AUSTIN -- The benefits of breastfeeding your baby are well documented. However, a new study reveals the risks some mothers are taking when they buy breast milk online.
The report focused on two popular breast milk sharing websites. It found the milk is often contaminated with high levels of bacteria -- including salmonella.
Mackenzie was born Oct. 16 at St. David's Medical Center. She was due closer to Christmas. The hospital's Neonatal Intensive Care Unit has a refrigerator full of highly-screened breast milk donated to the Mothers Milk Bank of Austin. So far, little Mackenzie hasn't needed any donations.
"My milk is better than anybody else's milk for my baby," Mackenzie's mother Marquiste Nance said.
Nance has been able to produce enough for Mackenzie. She is aware of the recent findings in the Journal of Pediatrics showing the dangers of online breast milk.
"It's just too high a risk for your baby," said Nance. "I just couldn't do it."
However, women who are unable to breastfeed but want the nutrients and health benefits of breast milk have been turning to online sharing. The report found breast milk purchased from these popular sites often contained high levels of bacteria, including salmonella.
"Online you have no idea what you're getting," said Lanna Barbaroux, a lactation consultant at St. David's Medical Center.
"Those mothers who donate to those sites are not screened," said Jennifer Desireddi, M.D., a neonatologist who practices at St. David's Medical Center. "That milk is not processed the way it is in a milk bank. So viruses, bacteria, any maternal drug use can be passed on through that milk to the infant."
"The recipients of that milk are basically playing Russian roulette," said Kim Updegrove, the president of the Human Milk Bank Association of North America. At the milk bank, donors are screened and undergo tests for health and blood risks. Updegrove says unregulated website donors don't have to do that.
"For some reason women are willing to believe that breast milk is different from other body fluids," said Updegrove. "They don't see it carrying the same risks as something like blood. So they assume that the benefits of breast milk far outweigh any potential risks."
Nance isn't willing to take those risks.
"Not knowing that person, or not knowing if that milk has been tested, you're taking a pretty high risk with your baby's health," she said.

About Us / economic impact
Since its inception in 1993, the Valero Alamo Bowl has developed a growing track record of top ESPN ratings, capacity crowds and exciting games.
The 20th Annual Valero Alamo Bowl lived up to its billing as #23 Texas overcame a 10 point second half deficit to beat #13 Oregon State 31-27. Two dramatic touchdowns from Longhorn wide receiver Marquise Goodwin and a bowl record 4.5 sacks from defensive end Alex Okafor keyed the comeback in front of a standing room only crowd of 65,277. It was the fourth highest attendance in Valero Alamo Bowl history and the fifth capacity crowd in the last seven years. The game was laso the seventh game in the last eight where the outcome wasn't decided until the final two minutes.
TV Viewership
The Valero Alamo Bowl has produced five of the Top 15 Most-Watched Non-BCS Bowl Games in ESPN history including the #1 (2010 Texas Tech vs. Michigan State), #2 (2006 Texas vs. Iowa), #6 (2005 Michigan vs. Nebraska), #11 (2011 Baylor vs. Washington) and #14 (2012 Texas vs. Oregon State) games in terms of household impressions. More than 120 million viewers have tuned in to the 20 Valero Alamo Bowl broadcasts.
Economic Impact
Since inception in 1993, nearly 1.2 million fans have attended the 20 Valero Alamo Bowls. The games have delivered $394 million direct economic impact to San Antonio. The 2012 game brought over 33,000 out-of-town fans and direct spending of approximately $23 million during what used to be the slowest week of tourism of the year. San Antonio received over $1.4 million in incremental tax impacts bringing the 20 year totals to $24.9 million and $28.2 million, respectively.
The Valero Alamo Bowl also actively pursues neutral site college football games for San Antonio with the most recent match-ups being Texas A&M vs. Army (2006), the Big 12 Championship (2007) and Notre Dame vs. Washington State (2009).
This season the Valero Alamo Bowl will match-up the #2 selection from the Big 12 (after BCS and AT&T Cotton Bowl) and the #1 selection from the Pac-12 after the Rose Bowl.

80 % Of People Are Looking For Information About The Influence Of Alcohol On The Human Body On The Internet (Translation)
22 September 2011
Plzeňský Prazdroj introduces all new napivosrozumem.cz
Praha, September 19, 2011 - Plzeňský Prazdroj introduces an all-new look at the website www.napivosrozumem.cz. The first version of the Internet website was launched by Plzeňský Prazdroj as part of its support for a responsible approach to the consumption of alcoholic beverages in February 2009. There, visitors could get useful information about the health impact of alcohol on the human organism, as well as tips on how to enjoy and consume it responsibly. The all-new website offers an on-line advice section with answers from experienced experts and a complex evaluation test for alcohol consumption. Website visitors are informed about the actual level of alcohol in blood at Promile INFO. The website itself is advertised by Prazdroj in all its advertising venues. For example, last year it was presented on 240 million pieces of packaging material and millions of beer coasters in pubs and restaurants all around Czech Republic.
The new look of the website www.napivosrozumem.cz was created based on findings from surveys conducted by GfK Company. Out of a sample of 500 respondents, one-third of them had already looked there in the past for information about the influence of alcohol on the human organism. A high percentage, 82% of respondents, then recommended visiting the website to their friends and relatives. As an answer to the question, "How did you learn about the existence of this website?" 33% mentioned TV ads, 24% the Internet, and 23% Plzeňský Prazdroj product packaging.
The website www.napivosrozumem.cz in its new version will also widen its successful cooperation with the civic association SANANIM. For those interested, the website provides an on-line advice section where you can place your questions about alcohol and alcohol consumption or explore information contained in answers that are already there. Experienced experts will answer all your questions. The website also contains a complex alcohol consumption evaluation test. Here, the test will evaluate the level of the participants' alcohol consumption based on their answers. The first expert to answer the most frequently asked questions placed on the web and to express his opinions about myths associated with alcohol in the section Expert's Advice will be Professor Tomáš Zima M.D., Dean of The First Medical School of The Charles University. His article will focus on alcohol and coffee consumption. On the website, the users will also find Promile INFO, of which Prazdroj is a long time supporter.
"We are convinced that the support of the responsible consumption of alcoholic beverages will positively influence awareness and understanding of this issue. We also believe that a change of behaviour connected to irresponsible alcohol consumption is possible thanks to further development of such activities," said Drahomíra Mandíková, PR director of Plzeňský Prazdroj.
"We welcome the widening of cooperation with Plzeňský Prazdroj in the form of the placement of our application on their website napivosrozumem.cz. I consider it very important for people to start thinking about alcohol consumption. I believe that a complex alcohol consumption evaluation test, an on-line advice section, experts' opinions, and the presence of Promile INFO will strongly support informed decision-making and responsible behaviour of beer consumers. These days, I find the Internet forum to be an ideal place not only for prevention activities, but also for direct help," said Jiří Richter, executive director of civic association SANANIM.
Prazdroj comes not only with valuable information, but mostly with a clear message about responsible alcohol consumption. It contains the link to the website napivosrozumem.cz on all its advertising materials and beer labels, but, moreover, this year, it started sending out a clear message: Alcohol and the steering wheel do not belong together. The memorandum of the cooperation with the Czech Ministry of Transportation was signed as a part of the support of the message ALCOHOL AND THE STEERING WHEEL DO NOT BELONG TOGETHER. The first product of this cooperation is in the form of more than 1.2 million coasters imprinted with hot traffic themes of today, such as alcohol and driving, and visibility. The coasters, with a BESIP department design, are being distributed to restaurants serving Plzeňský Prazdroj beers all over Czech Republic. Service Promile INFO is also involved in the prevention of alcohol behind the steering wheel. Information about the responsible consumption of alcoholic beverages from Plzeňský Prazdroj can be found on 240 million pieces of packaging material and on millions of coasters every year. In TV advertisements, this message is given 5% of the spot and 10% of the total time.
The website will be further improved based on suggestions from the public even in the future. New surveys about the impact of the changes made to the website on the public will be conducted at the beginning of 2012. The content of the website will be adjusted according to this evaluation of the most frequent questions and suggestions.
Plzeňský Prazdroj Company actively participates in the prevention of negative consequences of excessive or inappropriate alcohol consumption and supports the enforcement of a responsible approach to the consumption of alcoholic beverages by itself and as a member of the Initiative of Responsible Breweries.
Civic Association SANANIM
Civic Association SANANIM is the oldest such association in Czech Republic (established in 1990) and today it is also the largest non-governmental provider of services in the field of prevention, care, treatment, and reintroduction back to a society of those addicted to drugs. Today, it operates eleven main facilities - Field Programs, Contact Centre, Specialized Health Services CADAS, Day Care, the treatment communities Karlov and Němčice, Post-treatment Rehabilitation Centre with subsidized housing and workshops, Drug Addiction Info Centre, Help Centre for Convicts, Work and Social Agency and the Parental Advisory Office - and provides a growing number of additional projects and programs. The most important are its auto-phone advisory and info services (Drug Addict Help Line, Promile INFO, Alkotest, etc.), the Roma Field Program and Program for Mothers with Children. Other programs are aimed especially at education, primary prevention, publication activities and foreign cooperation.

Could some babies pretend crying to simply get attention? Tokyo researchers say "yes!"
They studied babies to find out whether they were distressed or happy immediately before crying and they believe babies with siblings use fake crying to get attention as they have to compete with brothers and sisters to stay in the limelight.
The study was done by sacred Heart University in Japan. Dr. Hioka Nakayama says younger children exhibited instances of fake crying get their mother's attention.
Researchers also think fake crying contributes greatly to an infant's social development as well as their emotional development as it's their way of communicating at a very young age.
The study was published in the Infant Behavior and Development Journal.

Four credit hours. H, I. JONES
LA174s Introduction to Latin American Studies Cross-disciplinary, historically-grounded introduction to modern Latin America, including developing the capability to analyze and articulate the underlying forces behind the region's historical problems and its common geographical and environmental features (i.e. frontiers, regionalism), polities, cultural features, and recurring socioeconomic structures (i.e. plantations, favelas). Historical themes include the Gilded Age of export-oriented liberal modernization, the construction of supposedly timeless national cultures during the "critical decades" of the 1920s and 1930s, urban populism and economic nationalism, the Cuban Revolution, and Cold War dictatorships.

Four credit hours. H, I.
[LA274] Race, Religion, and Frontiers in Iberian-American Colonization Topics include the medieval roots of Iberian expansion and the importance of religion and race in the Conquest; the institutional and social construction of colonial society, including Iberians' cultural baggage—notions of racial purity and piety and related ideas such as honor and hierarchy; decolonization, focusing on the struggle over abolition; and the persistence of Iberian notions of race and colonization in the Americas.

Four credit hours. H, I. JONES

Objectives include a response paper, in-class presentations, a critical book review, and a substantial (c.30 page) research paper, the first draft of which will be presented and critiqued in class.

This year's severe flu season has claimed lives in our area.
A spokesperson from the Lehigh Valley Health Network confirms a baby died over the weekend.
This year's flu epidemic in so severe that the hospital set up a special triage tent.
In just the past two days, the hospital tells us they've seen between 80 and 100 patients for flu symptoms.
Pennsylvania recorded 22 flu-related deaths this season, as of Jan. 5, according to the state's Department of Health.
The counties surrounding Philadelphia region are seeing some of the worst concentration of cases.
In other state, like Illinois, so many patients with flu-like symptoms are flooding emergency rooms that hospitals have been forced to turn away ambulances with non-emergency cases.
U.S. health officials say the strain of influenza virus going around this year has been linked to more hospital admissions and deaths.
But doctors are still trying to figure out why this year's strain is so bad.
According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 29 states are reporting high flu activity, and 41 states are reporting widespread geographic flu activity for the week that ended Dec. 29.
Health officials around the country agree that it is not too late to get a flu shot, and this would be a really good year to get one.

Chicago Sun Times
State's Charity Critical to Mentally Ill
April 26, 2005
The election of a new pope has been followed by a whirlwind of speculation about what aspects of John Paul II's legacy Benedict XVI will maintain or change. But one very important part of the late pope's vision was his views on society's responsibilities to those with severe mental illness. At a time when some Illinois officials, facing the pressure of growing budget deficits, are tempted to slash spending on mental health care, I hope they keep in mind John Paul's legacy, which Benedict is surely to follow.
In a speech to a 1997 International Conference for Health Care Workers, John Paul II said, ''[The Church] reminds the political community of its duty to recognize and celebrate the divine image of man with actions that support and serve all those who find themselves in a condition of severe mental illness. This is a task which science and faith, medicine and pastoral care, professional skill and a sense of common brotherhood must help to carry out through an investment of adequate human, scientific and socioeconomic resources.''
John Paul II reminded us that mental illness is just that: a disease or disorder of the brain, not a moral failing. And yet, the stigma can make it extremely difficult for people to become productive members of society.
Here in Chicago, the archdiocese has worked to put the late pope's words into practice through the work of the Commission on Mental Illness and other diocesan agencies. We offer programs that educate about mental illness issues and support people with mental illness and their families.
But religious organizations, charities and other private groups can only do so much. With almost 1 million Illinois residents suffering from a serious mental disorder in any given year, people with mental illness need state funds for treatments and services. Cutting funding would hurt some of our most vulnerable citizens. Funding cuts also would be fiscally irresponsible, as taxpayers would wind up paying more in the long run.
When services and treatment aren't available, many people with serious mental illness fall into the criminal justice system: stuck in a revolving door of arrest, imprisonment, release, rearrest, reimprisonment, etc., with terrible results for them and huge costs for taxpayers. In the worst situations, preventable tragedies result.
Communities suffer too, because time and resources are diverted away from law enforcement's real job -- protecting the public from crimes. Conservative estimates are that 16 percent of Illinois inmates and almost 60 percent of youth in Cook County juvenile justice facilities suffer from mental illness. If we could treat them, they could stay out of the most expensive social service agency we have: the prison system.
Cutbacks in mental health services also send people with mental illness to hospital emergency rooms, at a time when ERs already face a major crunch. Overcrowded emergency rooms mean long waits for everyone, prolonging the pain and suffering for all patients.
Pope John Paul II said, ''Our actions must show that mental illness does not create insurmountable distances, nor prevent relations of true Christian charity with those who are its victims.'' I hope that Benedict XVI soon echoes those words. Mental illness is a treatable disease. In Illinois, we should provide people battling mental illness the help they need because it is the right thing to do, and because it is the fiscally smart thing to do.
Deacon Tom Lambert,
Archdiocesan Commission on Mental Illness

Strategies for using group work in college classes
Are you interested in using group work but uncertain about how to manage this in a class? The Carl Wieman Science Education Initiative at the University of British Columbia created a short video on the use of group work. The video discusses several types of research-based best practices for group activities, how to manage group work to keep the focus on learning, interviews with instructors and students about their experiences with group work, and demonstrations of different types of group activity in classroom settings.
The 15-minute video can be viewed in two parts on YouTube. The link below also provides access to this video in Flash and QuickTime formats.
An interesting strategy illustrated in the second video is the use of tablet-sized white boards that students use during group work on computational problems. The tablets are 12" x 9" dry-erase boards that are large enough to allow students in a group to share their final diagram, written response, or problem solution with the rest of the class in a pair-share activity. Students can easily erase and revise their solutions to problems while they work together as a group, so they are less hesitant to begin work on problems.

Not just fun and games! Structure class demonstrations to reinforce learning goals
Classroom demonstrations that illustrate an important process, phenomenon, or application of a concept can generate interest and engage students with course material. Although students enjoy classroom demonstrations, they sometimes remember the activity but do not remember the course learning goals that instructors want to promote when they design the demonstration. An effective demonstration connects student memories of the classroom experience with the concepts the activity was designed to demonstrate.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "At the end of the day, if I really have to recommend a wine from this collection, the one I'd buy for my cellar, it will be the 2011 Petalos del Bierzo. The wine is very aromatic and flowery (violets), almost heady, with clear notes of blueberries and licorice. It has a medium body, with a thick..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "It's rare for me to give a generic Chablis an outstanding rating, but it's interesting to note that this vineyard was classified premier cru prior to 1914. Certainly, some serious terroir exists, as evidenced by this wine. Bottled unfiltered, this elegant wine displays notes of white currants,..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The red 2011 Dido is produced with organic farmed grapes grown on granitic soils and blends Garnacha, Syrah, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. The aim here is to keep the freshness. Forty percent of the wine is aged in concrete vats, while the rest is matured in clay amphorae and used oak. The result..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The entry-level 2009 Pruno is predominantly Tempranillo with dollops of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot aged for 12 months in seasoned French oak. Opaque purple in color, it offers up a brooding bouquet of earthy minerality, Asian spices, incense, and assorted black fruits. Velvety-textured,..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "From tank, the l'Oustal Blanc 2009 Minervois Giocoso - incorporating some Cinsault along with its usual Grenache, Syrah, and Carignan - is redolent of incense, freshly-baked ginger cookies, and confitured cherry and black raspberry ... There is terrific grip and lingering spice here, while a..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The Les Pentes cuvée from Domaine Serge Dagueneau et Filles is their standard bottling of Pouilly-Fumé and in 2012 it is an excellent bottle, offering up a refined and utterly classic nose of sweet grapefruit, orange, flinty soil tones, cut grass, green apple and just a hint of pepper...
Cellar/Tasting Notes "A fresh, juicy cherry note is enlivened by spice and savory mineral elements in this lean yet firm red. Remains harmonious and persistent, featuring a long, spice-tinged aftertaste. Shows excellent potential."
Cellar/Tasting Notes The goal at Acacia is to interfere as little as possible in order to preserve maximum flavor of their wine with clarity and balance. They believe in the grapes and the land.
The 2012 Chardonnay epitomizes this goal as it is a balanced and refreshing chardonnay with aromatic notes of fresh melon,..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Domaine Grand Venuer's 2010 Lirac Clos de Sixte is outstanding. It is a full-bodied, rich, textural wine with abundant blue and black fruits interwoven with garrigue and licorice..."

Answered on 14th February 2008:
I have lots of experience with this one! (Both with doing my own booths and in plannng an entire trade show.) First, think BIG, not EXPENSIVE! Depending on the location of your booth, if you're one of the first booths, the best thing to give away is the plastic bags for the attendees to carry their goodies in........each person will carry YOUR LOGO and advertising throughout the night, and become a walking billboard for you. Another inexpensive idea is to have helium balloons with your logo/company name on them.......some people won't want to carry your balloon all night, so you put a 'prize' in SOME of them. Tell the attendees that they can't pop their balloon till a certain time at the end of the night, and if they win, they can come by your booth to collect their prize.....depending on your budget, it could be a gift certificate; a free product or service from your business; a prepaid phone card; even an inexpensive am/fm headset. Again, the people will be walking advertising for you all night. Another great give-away is computer mousepads.......if yours is cute and catchy, it'll stay on their desk! Try to be a little unique....everyone gets so many cheap keychains, pens, soda huggers and magnets!
To display your pictures, if you don't have a vertical backdrop, you can use a 3-panel room divider to create your own 'wall' and put pictures on that. (Just make sure you secure it, so it can't fall into your neighbor's booth behind you!)
If you need to round-out your booth, you can always use plants for 'filler.' A few larger items work much better than a bunch of little items, which tend to look cluttered.
Good Luck!

Definitely! Because I wanted to be available to my children, I chose the route of entrepreneurship. Working for myself for 16+ years has allowed me to control my schedule and and keep it in sync with the kids' school, extracurricular & social schedules. Although at times it does take some maneuvering and juggling, it's been a great experience and has worked out really well for our family!

Makes no difference. Do whatever is easiest to pipe
I am replacing a single tube hot water baseboard with a two tier unit unit in my kitchen. The supply comes from above on the right side and the return is on the left going down to the floor below. If I have a two tiered setup, should the supply be split to feed each tube simultaneously, or is it better to supply the top unit and then snake back to the lower tier? Setup is 3/4" pex and 3/4" copper fin tube element. I'm assuming if the supply is split then the flow to each tube would be reduced by half.
Makes no difference. Do whatever is easiest to pipe
[B]No, plumbing ain't rocket science. Unlike rocket science, plumbing requires a license[B]
If you are feeding a 3/4" copper fin tube unit with 3/4" PEX, which is really a smaller tube. WHAT is going to induce the water to flow thru the upper coil when the lower one is already larger than your supply line? With your design, the ONLY way to insure flow through the second tier is to either create an "obstruction" for the lower one, (reducing the connection to 1/2" might not be enough because the PEX is not much larger than 1/2" copper), so water HAS to divert to the other one, or tie them together as a single run with the feed and return at the same end.
Licensed residential and commercial plumber
Thanks for the reply. I haven't gotten around to doing this yet. The existing supply is actually 1" PEX. Not sure what you mean by connect them as a single run. The supply is from the floor above, so the top tier would be fed first, or they'd both be fed simultaneously. My initial thought was to feed the top tier first from the existing supply and then connect the lower tier from the return of the upper. I'm going to replace the fin tube element so I can size them as necessary. Would you suggest a 3/4" element?

It is not likely to be 5" pipe. Water should not come out of it, but if the system is malfunctioning, then it could. We cannot see the pipes so we cannot tell you whether they are PVC, ABS, or something else altogether.
I have recently bought a piece of property on the lake, and want to use it for recreation with my travel trailer.
There was previously a mobile homes on the property that was connected to a septic system.
I have dug around the existing drain line, about 18 inches "up from" the septic tank. It looks like 5 inch PVC. This is right at the clean-out.
I want to cut the "PVC line" in half, abandoning the old pipe, then, install a 45 deg fitting and run up hill to the level spot where my travel trailer is located.
Are the lines PVC? Do I use the same glue that I used to do some presure water work under my house?
When I cut the 5 inch PVC line, will septic leak out?
It is not likely to be 5" pipe. Water should not come out of it, but if the system is malfunctioning, then it could. We cannot see the pipes so we cannot tell you whether they are PVC, ABS, or something else altogether.
PVC comes in a variety of colors, but it usually is white plastic for drain pipe.
ABS is black plastic. PVC requires PVC primer and PVC glue. ABS requires ABS glue.
Yes, you should be able to cut it (recip saw, hacksaw, etc.), sand it, and prime and glue a connecting coupling onto it and run a line uphill so that your travel trailer can gravity flow to the septic system.
Make certain that you're cutting into the intake side of the septic tank, and not the outflow discharge line to the distribution box. Your tank should be pumped at least every five years, so that might be a good thing to do with an old system to start with, and have it professionally inspected while they're at it. A 1,000-gallon septic tank clean-out around here runs about $265. I have it done in all years that end in a 5 or a 0 to keep it idiot proof. LOL
Good Luck!
What you are planning is fine, but you need to use the septic system as a dump station rather than as a permanent connection. An RV toilet "flushes" by merely dropping the waste down into a holding tank, and the waste will not flow right on through the holding tank and out into a connected drain. So, you will need to close the gate valve and only open to dump the holding tank after it is full, and you might also need to point a water hose down through the toilet to break up any clump of waste that might be stuck to the bottom of the holding tank. Again: The issue here is that an RV toilet does not use enough water during a flush to cause the waste wash on through the holding tank and on down the corrugated drain hose into a septic system.
