What causes constipation?
Comment on this Read 4 Comments
Theoretically, constipation can be caused by the slow passage of digesting food through any part of the intestine. More than 95% of the time, however, the slowing occurs in the colon.
Medications that cause constipation
A frequently over-looked cause of constipation is medications. The most common offending medications include:
In addition to the medications listed above, there are many others that can cause constipation. Simple measures (for example, increasing dietary fiber) for treating the constipation caused by medications are often are effective, and discontinuing the medication is not necessary. If simple measures don't work, it may be possible to substitute a less constipating medication. For example, a nonsteroidal ant-inflammatory drug (for example, ibuprofen) may be substituted for narcotic pain medications. Additionally, one of the newer and less constipating antidepressant medications (for example, fluoxetine [Prozac]) may be substituted for amitriptyline and imipramine.

After boiling pellets how can I deal with them? Is there a simple way to get them out of the wort, or can I leave them during fermentation? In that case will I be sure they will drop on the bottom and not cause problems?
Welcome to Homebrewing Stack Exchange
We're a little bit different from other sites. Here's how:
Ask questions, get answers, no distractions
This site is all about getting answers. It's not a discussion forum. There's no chit-chat.
Just questions...
...and answers.
Good answers are voted up and rise to the top.
The best answers show up first so that they are always easy to find.
The person who asked can mark one answer as "accepted".
Accepting doesn't mean it's the best answer, it just means that it worked for the person who asked.
How do you strain pellet hops out of wort or beer?
2 Answers
Usually the pellets will dissolve during boil and settle down to the bottom of your kettle when you cool your wort. Then, when transferring to the fermentor you can just leave them behind (easier to do with a siphon).
Use a hop bag - put the pellets on the bag, when you are done with the boil simply pull the bag out.
I use a bucket for my fermentor so I bought a steel mesh strainer. I then sanitize the strainer with starsan and place the strainer across the top of the bucket and run the wort through it. This strains out the hop gunk and helps with aeration by turning the wort into droplets as it falls into the fermentor.
Get answers to practical, detailed questions
Focus on questions about an actual problem you have faced. Include details about what you have tried and exactly what you are trying to do.
Ask about...
- the brewing process
- brew appreciation
Not all questions work well in our format. Avoid questions that are primarily opinion-based, or that are likely to generate discussion rather than answers.
Questions that need improvement may be closed until someone fixes them.
Don't ask about...
- Selling alcohol
- Buying commercially brewed products
- Irresponsible consumption of alcohol
- Anything not directly related to homebrewing
- Questions that are primarily opinion-based
- Questions with too many possible answers or that would require an extremely long answer

Insofar, I've only used Wacom products for tablets. I started on a Graphire 4 (discontinued and replaced with the Bamboo line) for a 100-something bucks. I used it for a little over five years. It held up great, I never had to replace the nib, and I never had a single problem with it.
About a month and a half ago I got an Intuous 4, and I like that a lot. The texture on the tablet itself is supposed to mimic paper, which is different from the Graphire 4's surface, which was just smooth plastic. I still might prefer the smooth surface to the textured surface, but I also know that I still haven't fully gotten used to it.
When I first got my tblet, I was awful with it. My lines were shaky, and my first thought was, "Oh, crap, I just spent all this money on something I'm gonna hate!" But after a month or two of obsessive use, I got used to it. XD

I like the idea of having one thread to post all the belly photos. With my last pregnancy I took a picture almost every week (CLICK HERE TO SEE MY LAST PICS). While I'm not sure that I will take a picture every week this time, I'm going to try to keep up with it as much as possible.
Feel free to post your belly pics and we can all share our growing bellies!

Something feels a bit more right with the world today. The reigning national champs in football and basketball are Alabama and Kentucky. Depending on your own fan allegiances that may be Heaven or Hell for you, but it does feel right. The two most tradition-rich programs in the SEC in their sports are atop their sports once more.
That hasn't happened since UK won a hoops title under Joe B. Hall in 1978 and Bama won a football crown the following fall under Bear Bryant.
First, congrats to the Kentucky fanbase. Call them zealous or fanatical. Call them spoiled or snobby. But you must admit no basketball fanbase travels with and supports their team better than Cat fans. Kansas is the second-winningest program in hoops history yet the Superdome crowd was clearly pro-UK last night. And Lexington is only about 75 miles closer to New Orleans than Lawrence, Kansas is.
So to those Cat fans who weren't shot or arrested in Lexington last night — imbeciles — MrSEC's hat is tipped to you.
Now, some random thoughts rattling around the rim of this writer's mind this morning:
* Ya think Mitch Barnhart feels pretty good today? Kentucky's AD went all in with John Calipari. Five years ago, Coach Cal wasn't on Barnhart's list of job candidates. But after the complete failure that was the Billy Gillispie era, suddenly the Cats' athletic director did consider Calipari. He hired a man who many view as dirty — though the NCAA has never found Calipari guilty of anything — to head up one of the most scandal-ridden programs in basketball history.
It was a risky move. For now, it's paid off as Calipari has not only brought Kentucky its eighth national championship, but he's made UK the hoops program in America again. He's proved to be the perfect fit. He's Pitino Part II and it doesn't look like he'll be jumping to the NBA anytime soon.
Barnhart took a lot of national heat when he hired Calipari. Today he must feel all the potshots were well worth taking.
* I guess we know now that a team largely built with freshman can win the NCAA Tournament. When Calipari began heading down the one-and-done road three years ago, there was debate as to whether a team built with youngsters could hang a banner.
No more. UK's starting lineup last night consisted of three freshmen and two sophomores. Last year, UConn won the crown with three freshmen in its lineup also.
Put the debate to bed. In the transient sport of college basketball, the teenagers can indeed get it done on the biggest stage.
* But I can't help wondering about Cat fans' connection to their players. You can bet Kentucky's national championship team will be adored in the Bluegrass State for years to come, yes. But if Calipari continues to bring in one-and-done types, will Big Blue fans even be able to remember one team from another 20 years from now?
In the old days — and I'm old — fans got to know their team. They watched individual players grow up over three or four years. It was easy to say, "Remember that '83 team with Johnson, Smith, Davis, etc"
Kentucky fans have their eighth title. No one's going to be complaining today. But come 2030 will fans remember who was on the '10 team as opposed to the '13 team? That we don't know.
* Calipari's coaching reputation has improved mightily at Kentucky. And not just because he won a tournament last night. Over the past three seasons, UK's coach has three times taken a group of the nation's best recruits and molded them into team-first, defense-first units. In itself that is a remarkable feat.
The players Calipari signs are the best of the best. They're used to being coddled from middle school to high school to AAU ball to the recruiting process. Yet he continues to get them to buy into his team-first mantra.
Immediately after last night's game, CBS' Jim Nantz asked Calipari what the national title meant to him. "It's not about me," the coach quickly answered. And when Nantz began his chat with Davis — the tourney's Most Outstanding Player — the young big man immediately gave credit to his teammates.
In addition to creating an air of selflessness, Coach Cal gets his players to focus on defense first. For the most part, these are young men who are used to being The Man in high school. You don't get five stars by your name unless you're putting the ball in the bucket. A lot. Yet Kentucky under Calipari has continued to worry about defense more than offense.
Whether you like or dislike the Cats' coach, you have to respect the way he connects with his young players and gets them to put team over self, defense over offense.
* This Kentucky team was not The John Wall-DeMarcus Cousins Show, either. Davis was America's best player. But he shot 1-for-10 from the floor last night and scored just six points. UK didn't miss a beat in their 67-59 win.
Night after night, UK always found another player who would step up. Some nights it was Kidd-Gilchrist. Other times Terrence Jones would lead. Darius Miller was often the Cats' saving grace. And last night Doron Lamb's outside shooting helped propel UK to victory.
The point being — this year's team was even "teamier" than Calipari's previous squads. Is there any doubt that's why this is the bunch that brought down the confetti?
* I couldn't help thinking last night that it must have been a good time to be a Missouri fan. The Tigers had a terrific year and Frank Haith was named the National Coach of the Year, but a belly-flop to #15 seed Norfolk State brought their season to a bitter end. The only thing worse would have been to see hated rival Kansas claim a national title. Instead, it was an SEC foe — a team from Mizzou's new conference — that broke the Jayhawks' hearts. I'm guessing more than one Tiger fan took a little solace in that fact.
* Finally, you have your championship and you can yell, "Scoreboard!" til the cows come home, but UK fans should be prepared for the jibes and taunts of rival fans. Calipari has seen two previous Final Four teams stripped of their histories. You can bet the "this one will be vacated, too" remarks will be flying all over SEC messageboards and call-in shows today.
Auburn fans dealt with it after the Cam Newton mess. Alabama fans have heard it thanks to the T-Town Menswear story. It's simply what we do in today's society. Heck, the losing party in presidential elections no longer accepts the new prez as their own nation's leader. No one unifies under the elected leader, they just continue to fight and undermine.
So be sure that those who detest UK will work long and hard to discredit and downplay this year's national championship.
That just goes with the territory.

Something feels a bit more right with the world today. The reigning national champs in football and basketball are Alabama and Kentucky. Depending on your own fan allegiances that may be Heaven or Hell for you, but it does feel right. The two most tradition-rich programs in the SEC in their sports are atop their sports once more.

This story is part of Governing's annual International issue.
One aspect of globalization that has received tremendous attention is the concept of the so-called "global city" -- a place like New York or London that is in some sense an exceptionally successful and dominant player on the world stage. These have been variously defined, but often with a focus on specific business services like finance, and on overall economic size, diversity of culture and attractiveness as a tourist destination.
From the smartphone in our hands to the flat-screen TVs on our walls—and the Internet that now runs between them—we have a level of technological wizardry that would make Harry Potter envious. We all know that behind these gadgets and platforms is an amazing level of skill and knowledge: in the concepts that led to them, in the designs that take concept to reality and in the manufacturing that creates them.
Outside our homes is a built environment of roads, train lines, bridges, water, power and fiber-optic lines that also requires skills to conceive, design, build and maintain. For whatever reason, though, we don't often think about those types of skills. But we should. Because unlike smartphones or even trains, it's hard to import that know-how from China or elsewhere. It's crucial that we maintain those important skills at home.
In an era of creativity we have come to fetishize the idea. That's why every innovation competition is about coming up with the best new ideas. It's as though the idea itself has the power to generate transformation. Yet, if it's never implemented, even the best idea is of no value.
This has been clearly shown in Rhode Island, the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution in America. The state has been in economic decline far longer than the Midwest's Rust Belt, prompting many a search for a solution. As one local TV reporter noted, proposals have been piling up since the Eisenhower administration, with none of them ever really implemented.
I could be as rich as fabled King Midas or the latest Internet billionaire, but I would still be powerless against the transformative force of infrastructure.
I had the good fortune recently to spend two days at Greentree, the imposing estate of the Whitney family on Long Island that now serves as a meeting place for select nonprofits. The baronial estate was part of the now largely departed Gold Coast, the fabled North Shore where industry titans and wealthy elites lived large in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Across the country, transportation and utility department directors are repairing roads, extending sewers and building water lines. Other officials are managing airports, libraries, parks, police and fire departments. This is the daily, weekly and monthly life of city and state government, managing these essential but ordinary assets.
What's interesting is that once upon a time all these services weren't just accepted, but were seen as mere dreams. They were aspirations, which some people shared and others thought foolish and unwise. Public water systems were a wild idea in the mid-19th century. The construction of the secondary road system in the early 20th century was an immense task, with dozens of bureaucratic battles and choices. The idea of every city having a library was a pipedream until Andrew Carnegie spent a chunk of his immense fortune to build about a thousand of them more than 100 years ago. Even the idea that every child was entitled to an education at public expense was once controversial and a much debated notion (and one that wasn't fully settled until well into the 20th century).

Forensics in Dentistry
There's a valuable expertise called dental forensics. Dentists trained in forensics are skilled at identifying victims of a homicide or a disaster, such as a plane crash, a war or explosion. They helped identify the victims of the bombing of the federal building in Oklahoma City. Today, they can establish positive identifications, sometimes in a matter of minutes with sophisticated computer identification programs.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- What is dentistry's involvement in forensic medicine?
- How is technology changing the way dentists can help identify the remains of crime victims and missing persons?
- What is the main goal?
- What can be learned from studying a set of teeth?
- Where are dentists who work in forensics needed?
- How great is the need for this identification help?
- What is on the horizon?
What is dentistry's involvement in forensic medicine?
Forensic medicine is a science that deals with the relation and application of medical facts to legal problems. Dentists who work in forensics now can establish a positive identification of human remains -- sometimes in a matter of minutes, even without dental records.
How is technology changing the way dentists can help identify the remains of crime victims and missing persons?
Where no dental X-rays are available, digital photographs taken of the teeth can be used to compare a smiling photograph taken during the victim's life.
What is the main goal?
Quick identification is the main goal, so the FBI is conducting research to develop a nationwide "high speed" dental identification system that can compare thousands of dental records in minutes and automatically rank possible matches. For those wondering and worrying about the fate of a missing relative, a shorter wait means closure, so grieving and recovery can begin.
What can be learned from studying a set of teeth?
The arrangement of each person's teeth is virtually unique, and almost all of us have had some kind of dental treatment. Where dental records are available, it is possible to study a set of teeth and compare the teeth with dental records. This comparison allows dentists to establish the identity of a body, just like fingerprints or DNA evidence.
Where are dentists who work in forensics needed?
Dentists who work in forensics often are called to the most brutal death scenes like World Trade Center, the federal building bombing in Oklahoma City, and the Jeffrey Dahmer murders. Those can be difficult cases, especially when dental records are not available.
How great is the need for this identification help?
According to the FBI, on average there are 100,000 active missing persons cases in the United States at any given time. Nearly a third of those missing meet a tragic end.
As long as this trend continues, dentists who work in forensics will keep playing a critical role in helping identify victims.
What is on the horizon?
In the near future, 3D computer technology will make it possible to reconstruct a reasonable likeness of a person's face during life, using dental and physical information from skeletal remains.

whoops, I went to long . . .
To complete,,,,"in one month than, GM, Ford, and Chrysler sell in one YEAR of ALL models combined. Thank you for your reply. The car market is important to me and should be important to everyone. If more domestic cars were sold, our economy would be improved. On average over $4,600 from each Toyota, Honda or Nissan sales goes to Tokyo. That is over $2.3 billion last month.
Unfortunately perception is NOT reality-but is catching up. The Domestic automakers have been on par with our Japanese counterparts for several years now. With each new launch since, really around 2004, a far superior domestic model has been replacing an inferior model. That is now showing in auto sales nationally. Also the domestics are taking it to the imports in their traditionally dominating small car segment like the Chevy Spark leading its segment in sales, and the Chevy Sonic battling it out with the Nissan Versa for top sales honors. The Chevy Cruze has led its segment 3 of the last 12 months The Ford Fusion and Focus are selling well. The 2014 Chevy Impala is getting rave reviews and top honors from J.D. Power and Consumer Reports. This is all great news. Plus,Japan doesn't allow OUR cars and trucks in their country like we allow theirs. Their is not one domestic dealership, or assembly plant in Japan, and as such, Toyota sells more Camry's here in one month than
Actually the big 3 have caught them , and even passed them on some models. GM just got more JD Poer awards than any othe manufacturer. D3 market share has actually been increasing over the Japanese over the last 4 years.
Today is our buddy AlleycatMO's birthday, (regardless of what her profile says ;-) ...Please stop by and wish her a happy birthday. thanks!

text: Authorities arrested two people wanted in connection with the Oct. 11 shooting death of 42-year-old Lonnie T. Cogdill.According to Greenwood Violent Crime Task Force officials, Daniel Shane Allen, 35, of Hodges, is charged with murder and possession of a weapon during the commission of a violent crime. Meanwhile, Megan Alexis Allen, 20, of Hodges, is charged with accessory after the fact to a felony.Authorities searched for Daniel Allen and Megan Allen for several days. Violent Crimes Task Force commander Nick Futch said the two suspects were located, with the assistance of SLED, in Greenville County. They were arrested there without incident.Previously arrested in the case were Danny D. Allen, 57, and Parker Allen, 28, both of Jebosha Drive, Greenwood. They were charged with accessory after the fact of a felony. Investigators said Danny D. Allen and Parker Allen provided Daniel Allen and Megan Allen with money to help them evade law enforcement.According to law enforcement incident reports, officers responded Oct. 11 to a home on East Laurel Avenue, in reference to a shooting.Upon arrival, officers found Cogdill lying on a couch in the living room, slumped over on his right side. He had a wound on his chest and there was a large amount of blood on his chest and on the couch. He was not breathing.Shortly after Greenwood County EMS arrived on the scene and examined Cogdill, Greenwood County Coroner Sonny Cox was summoned to the scene.Family members said Cogdill's nickname was "Cog," a childhood moniker that he had tattooed on his arm. They remembered the Greenwood victim Thursday as a dedicated father who overcame past mistakes to be instrumental in raising his four children and five stepchildren. Cogdill's youngest son was born in March, family members noted."He was just a loving person and he's truly and dearly missed," said his fiancée's mother Laura Andrews. "It's a relief that they've caught them and were able to bring them to justice. Now we just wonder why they did what they did."

U.S. Supreme Court nominating power a significant issue
Harold Baker, Waterbury
Some serious potential problems of the future have not received the attention they deserve. First, the next president likely will be able to nominate at least one U.S. Supreme Court justice, and possibly as many as four. The country appears to be seriously divided on many issues, including the role of government, so after the election, there will be a significant number of people who will have to face a future they did not anticipate.

Neighborhoods: Pilsen, West Side, Pilsen (Lower West Side)
I LOVE this place!
Last week it was my wedding anniversary. My husband purchased a chocolate mani/pedi for us both. Our appointment was at 4:00; I headed straight for the salon after my last client at 3:00. Being brand new to this city I don't know the best routes to take so I follow my GPS indefinitely. Even though it was a Tuesday-the traffic on the highway was ridicules! I called my husband (hands free!:-) and asked him to call the salon to see if they would take us even though I would be late. They graciously said yes to another 10-15 minutes. In thinking I would only be a little late, much to my dismay I continued to only move 5 mph on the highway-so I called my husband again and asked if he would call again and move the appointment to 4:30. AGAIN, the graciously said yes-without attitude, difficulty or remorse.
We walked into the salon together (he waited for me) and they greeted us with big smiles mentioning nothing of our lateness(of course we did apologize and thanked them immensely).
I happen to forget the name of my manicurist (this doesnt mean she didnt leave a good impression, I am sick and have severe memory fog) but she was amazing. I never say it, but when I go into a salon I really dont like talking because I spend my entire day talking, and listening and all I want to do is just relax and have "me" time. And she did just that-we had minimal conversation-she was very pleasant, respectful, and a joy to be around. She made me feel very comfortable and for once I felt very relaxed.
To top it off she just an AMAZING job on my nails-seriously amazing doesnt even describe it. I am very particular about my nails and it was just perfect. The best part of it all was that I have been getting my nails done for 10+ years and EVERY SINGLE TIME I walk out I manage to smudge my nails (i know this is my fault) however, whatever they used (i choose the nail-polish that wasn't opi-I think it started with an E) it NEVER chipped or smudged! It isnt until now a week later that the nail polish is slightly started to wear off-which is completely normal.
Thank you very much for making our anniversary RELAXING-thank you for understanding and thank you for such a pleasant experience. I will never forget it!And when I love something (or despise it) I TELL EVERYONE :-)
Oh, and my husband enjoyed it too:-) Happy wife-happy life :-)
So I decided to visit CFYB despite all reviews, HAD A WONDERFUL experience!! The staff there was pretty friendly. My NoChip mani and pedi were wonderful. I got my mani done 2 weeks ago and is still on!! Defenetely going back.
Great customer service! Can't wait to go back.
Brought my mom here for Mother's Day and we loved it. Very professional
Excellent service – Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. My Shellac manicure lasted almost 3 weeks! I highly recommend this place!!!
Sweat place like a chocolate:) – My friend and I came in for the chococholic mani/pedi and had a wonderful experience. The staff was very friendly and on top of things. This was hands down the best mani/pedi we have ever had.
Rude and inconsiderate owner. – I was a faithful customer of this establishment for about a year until something unthinkable happened. I was abruptly cancelled to accomodate a spa party that was just booked. I was not very happy. I spoke to the owner that told me that she thought the customers would be okay. I went on to explain that my time during the week is very limited which is why I always shedule my appointments on saturdays. I informed the manager that the party would generate more money then what I would be paying and that was the sole reason why I was not being accomodated. The owner was so small minded to think that I should change my work schedule to accomodate them. They should be accomodating me not the other way around. My thought is if she does this now then will she do it again. The owner could not understand or even care that I was upset about the cancellation. So the best thing for me to do was never go back. Maria was always wonderful but the new owner sucks big time at customer service skills and she will be de downfall of this establishment being successful. Bree was also very wonder. Sasha, I believe her name, seems very could. SO needless to say, I had a good run and the party is over.
Great Experience ! – I always have a great experience when i go to CFYB. Customer service is great, they always answer phones and offer something to drink. Technicians there are super friendly and always doing a great job ! What i love best about CFYB is they appreciate every client and have a lot of sales and specials every month. I recommend going to CFYB if you are looking for a way to relax or just pamper yourself at a great price ! =)
Every body need a little chocolate – I heard about Chocolate for your body from a friend, I have to say FAMOUSLY service for GOOD price. Waxing by Anna was great. THANKS
Amazing Experience – I had an amazing experience at Chocolate for your Body! The customer service from the moment I entered to the time I left was very satisfying and I felt valued. I will definitely be recommending the Spa to my friends and family.
Indulgent, sweets-based treatments and organic facials add a luxe touch to services at this Pilsen spa. – In Short
Spagoers wait in plush chairs up front for treatments--from manicures and pedicures to facials, wraps and scrubs--that incorporate the spa's namesake ingredient, chocolate. White walls and eclectic paintings lend a pristine feel to the large, open space. Not everything is candy-based: Dermalogical and organic facials and cellulite-zapping Parafango therapy wraps share a menu with brow, lip and chin waxing. Along with basic massages, eyelash extensions, microdermabrasion and threading also are offered.

That's a good thing for the patrons on the Augusta National grounds and all the people around the world watching the Masters on TV, but not so much for the other 90-plus players in the field.
Woods, who returned to the No. 1 player in the world after his last win three weeks ago, is the prohibitive favorite in this week's 77th Masters.
What else is new? He has been considered a favorite each of the last seven years he hasn't won here, but this year there's a growing sense he can actually pull it off and move one major closer to Jack Nicklaus' all-time record.
Only until then will some people accept the most dominant player of his generation is all the way back from the downward spiral that touched every aspect of his life and dropped him as far as 58th in the world golf rankings.
"Every year he's put up as that," defending Masters champion Bubba Watson said. "He's playing the best. He's No. 1 in the world. If you're No 1 in the world, I think you should be the favorite. It would be kind of weird if he's the underdog and he's No. 1 in the world. He's No. 1 in the world, that's all you need to look at."
But Woods hasn't won a major since the 2008 U.S. Open. And he hasn't won here since 2005, when he beat Chris DiMarco in a playoff. He has finished sixth or better each year since until a T-40 last year — his worst finish here as a pro.
"It's not like I've been out of there with no chance of winning this championship," he said. "I've been there and unfortunately just haven't got it done."
Admittedly, the element holding him back is his putting.
"I was there ball-striking-wise a few years through that stretch … but just didn't make enough putts," he said. "You have to putt well here. You have to make a lot of putts."
Now even that's coming around.
Woods hasn't played in two weeks, but the last two times he has played he's won, and that's what has most of the experts picking him this week, although there no doubt will be considerable challengers. The win at Bay Hill was his third of the year (in five starts) — and sixth since the start of 2012 — getting him back to No. 1 in the world for the first time since 2010.
"Headed up here I feel very comfortable with where things are at," he said. "I feel comfortable with every aspect of my game. … I'm excited that at this point in my career I've been able to get healthy and to be able to give myself another chance."
But that's no guarantee. The last time Woods won three times before the Masters — 2003 — he finished T-15 here. One other thing to note: It has been 11 years since No. 1 won the Masters; it was Woods.
With Woods back to playing well and Rory McIlroy playing well now, the patrons at Augusta National could be in for a Sunday showdown classics are made of.
McIlroy hadn't done much since signing a big contract and changing equipment at the start of the season. He says he's "very comfortable" with the equipment he's playing and took a big step last week with a second place finish at the Texas Open.
"I've gone through these patches before where I haven't played so well and the game feels quite far away," McIlroy said, "and then something clicks and then all of a sudden it's back again.
"When I don't play my best it's when I get into bad habits in my golf swing. Whenever my golf swing is where I want it to be, that's when I produce results. And that's what I've seen has started to happen over the past few weeks."

Concussion Expert Offers 5 Best Practices to Recover from Concussions
NEW YORK, Jan. 30, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- After reports that Commissioner Roger Goodell said the NFL would consider allowing athletes to use marijuana to treat concussions if medical experts deemed it a legitimate solution, Harry Kerasidis, M.D., medical director of XLNTbrain, LLC says there's not enough data showing a connection between using marijuana and aiding concussion recovery.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20140130/PH56290LOGO )
"When the brain is concussed, it's struggling to regain its chemistry and electrolyte balance, as well as repairing the cell membranes," said Dr. Kerasidis, who has treated hundreds of concussions over his 25 years studying the effects of concussions on cognitive behaviors. "Adding a substance that interferes with the repair and recovery process may have detrimental effects. Although the research suggests a neuro-protective effect of cannabinoid receptor activation in brain trauma induced inflammatory models, we are far from extrapolating that medical marijuana is a safe and effective method of treating humans with post-concussion syndrome."
Dr. Kerasidis is in New York this week introducing XLNTbrain Sport, the first complete concussion management program for all sports and levels which includes a 5-Step Progressive Exertion recovery plan to help guide athletic trainers and athletes back to normal activity and gameplay safely.
"Before prescribing medical marijuana for concussions, I'd need to see scientific double-blind, placebo-controlled studies measuring the short and long-term recovery effects," said Kerasidis. "For concussion-related headaches, I suggest taking an anti-inflammatory agent, such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen, until the athlete is symptom free. If the symptoms continue, then the athlete may have a mild traumatic brain injury requiring different treatment protocols that may include prescription drugs or nutraceuticals."
Top 5 Tips for Recovering From Concussion:
Finally, Dr. Kerasidis says to avoid toxins, such as drinking alcohol, and smoking -- "we are not yet sure where the marijuana comes in" -- which can delay the healing process.

Editors Note:
My apologies for this being late. When I set the release date, I didn't think of my July 4th plans (by the way happy Independence Day). Without any further ado, let's get this issue rolling.
The Cowboys are finally putting Tony Romo where he needs to be: the hot seat. Well, not really the hotseat, more like the warm seat. Jason Garrett met with Romo, the gist of the meeting being "Get your sorry ass in shape." Garrett met with him to discuss his habit of getting in just good enough shape for training camp. He believes, however, that is the reason Romo performs poorly late in the season, and wants Romo getting in better shape to lead the Cowboys to the postseason, which they missed last season after a blowout loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.
FanNation News Flash:
Blowout Throwdown:
ibLeedpurpleNgold (0-1-0) created a throwdown saying, "The top 10 Lakers of all time as a squad destroys any other franchise..." The Throwdown was accepted by Darth Maim (6-2-0) and he used the all time celtics team. ibLeedpurpleNgold ended up getting blown out 40-2 beacuse Darth Maim pointed out it might beat his Celtics team but it would not destroy.
Editors Note:
Here is the throwdown link
The NTL, waiting for a third week:
The NTL (National Throwdown League) finished two sucessful weeks. They have not started a third week. Many people have been posting about this and many people are upset. Ever since the beginning of June, people have been posting about what is going on. Many people are wondering, will this league continue? There has been a lot of confusion and nobody knows when the third week will start. The NTL, two sucessful weeks, waiting for a third.
Editors Note:
A new league was created, but jord left the group right after he created it.
Here is what jord sent NTL users
""i think the leagues gotten slow, and ill restart it at a later date, but there are a few people who are just not cooperating, and its causing some problems..
JB moved up to tenth on the leaderboard to replace Ghost. Ghost has not particaipated in a TD in 30 days which opened up 10th place to JB who was in 11th place .1% away from 10th place. In order for Ghost to make it back to the top ten, he will have to WIN a throwdown because his win percentage is so close to JB that even a tie will have him fall below. We will see if Ghost participates in a TD soon but we will keep you updated.
Editors Note:
Ghost did participate in a throwdown, and is now back to 10th on the leaderboard.
Guys this is my idea or the group. You have to challenge several o the best TDers out there. Detroitfan, Porkins, Cain, Hyped, Baun, Foosball and many more. Tell them you lost a bet!
The losers challenge the losers, and the winners, if there are any, challenge the other winners.
Good luck!
