This News Splash interview is with Tim McIntyre, Vice President, Communications, Domino's Pizza, and co-author with Dave Melton of "Hire The American Dream, How to Build Your Minimum-Wage Workforce into a High-Performance, Customer-Focused Team." Not only is Tim an exceptional writer but he is also one of the best PR professionals and corporate spokespeople out there. By the way, I've seen Dave Melton's teams in action and they are phenomenal – learn his secrets by reading "Hire the American Dream" – it's relevant for anyone who manages teams.
News Splash (NS): Tell us about "Hire the American Dream."
Tim: Dave Melton [Domino's Franchisee] has built a culture in his four Manhattan Domino's stores seldom found in the quick serve industry. This is an industry where 150% turnover is typical and managers are replaced yearly in many restaurants. In Dave's case, his average employee stays 8 years and managers average 6 years. When there has been turnover of managers, it was because the manager went on to become a store owner like Dave. Dave creates this culture by sharing his business philosophy and successes, and reinforcing that everyone wins when the store succeeds. This is a how-to book which shows that anyone can build this type of culture.
NS: Dave asked you several times to help him write this book and you turned him down at first. How come?
Tim: An editor from John Wiley & Sons saw an article about Dave in The New York Times and called him to say, "I think you have a book here for managers of entry-level, minimum wage employees." Dave came to me, said he had a book deal and asked me if I wanted to help write it. I turned him down. I have a day job and it's a pretty busy one. Besides, Dave lives in New York City – swing a pizza bag and you'll hit a writer. I thought he could easily find a writing partner there. Dave approached me a second and then a third time, and said, "You know who I am. You know Domino's. Let's do this together." I proposed the idea to my boss, Lynn Liddle, and Dave Brandon, Domino's CEO, and said that if I participate, we will have an accurate portrayal of Domino's Pizza and be involved in the final outcome. It can also help with recruiting and franchising as well as improve internal operations. I also outlined how I'd do it along with my job. They gave their full support.
NS: How did you find time to write a book while working full time?
Tim: We had 12 weeks to turn in 60,000 words. We started in June 2008 and the full manuscript was due the day after Labor Day. I did a lot of writing at night, on weekends, on airplanes and on vacation. Dave provided me with a constant stream of ideas and insights into his business philosophies, how he manages people and how he's built a culture for his stores. It was a matter of taking those gems and turning them into a manuscript. I came in to the office by 7 am before it opened, at lunch I'd pick up the project and then again at the end of the day. I had a supportive boss and family. I have the benefit of having older kids so I didn't have to attend events like Little League games. I literally looked at the calendar and found chunks of time for writing. I never want to do that again. If I have another book in me, I'd write most of it before approaching a publisher. Then I would spend that time polishing instead of writing.
NS: What did you learn about publishing during the process that could help others interested in writing a business book?
Tim: First, publishers like Wiley are looking for books that others can learn from. They like lesson books, not biographies. We always had to keep in mind: Will this help anyone? Is this useable stuff? That's why we focused so much on offering practical tips on exactly what to do and how to do it. That was also the driving force behind the profiles of people who started as minimum wage employees but are now incredibly successful. For instance, Emir Lopez from East Harlem who worked for Dave had an opportunity to "escape" from his upbringing but he chose to go back and bring Domino's to the neighborhood he grew up in. He saw opportunity that others didn't – he knew the neighborhood and that people were hungry for a company to provide the same services that other communities enjoy. He was the first to bring food delivery to the neighborhood and the store has thrived. Our goal was to write a book with value on every page and tell inspiring stories like this.
I also learned the importance of Chapter 1. When someone is in a bookstore with their latte, they look at the front cover, the back cover, and then flip to Chapter 1. We wrote and rewrote that chapter four times because we were constantly pushed by Wiley on that first piece. It makes or breaks the sale.
NS: There is nothing like a trip to gain perspective. You just got back from an amazing trip to Machu Picchu. Any epiphanies?
Tim: Four days hiking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu was the most physically exhausting – and the most exhilarating – thing I've ever done. On day two, we walked (and walked!) up and over "Dead Woman's Pass," more than 13,000 feet above sea level, carrying packs on our backs. It felt like cinder blocks had been attached to our hiking boots. The air is thin and the trail is steep. At the same time, we were reveling in the incredible beauty of Peru and were marveling at the technological advances of the Inca people; it distracted us from the physical struggle of the trek. Traveling like this opens you up to the world, to new points of view and to different perspectives on history. But if there was an epiphany, it was this: you can overcome challenges if you've got the passion, the will and the tools to do so…whether those challenges are hiking the Inca Trail, writing a book in three months or something even more meaningful. You really can do things you didn't think were possible. All you have to do is try.

On Soccer: Jamaican star Williams evolving into new role
GLENN DAVIS, For the Chronicle | May 12, 2005
In 1998, Jamaica qualified for the World Cup in France. The event set off prideful celebrations across the island nation known for Red Stripe beer, jerk chicken, Jamaican blue coffee and the reggae vibes of Bob Marley and Peter Tosh.
Who can forget the Reggae Boyz performing against teams from Croatia, Argentina and Japan? Jamaica even pulled off a 2-1 victory over Japan behind two goals from Theodore Whitmore.
The Jamaicans became fan favorites, and coach Rene Simoes' status was elevated to legendary in the Caribbean.
Jamaica's failure to qualify for the 2002 World Cup in Japan and Korea and elimination during earlier qualifying for the 2006 World Cup in Germany has saddened countrymen.
"It was very disappointing but our own fault," said Reggae Boyz midfielder Andy Williams. "We didn't capitalize on our home games at all. We had the best away record, but if you can't win at home, you don't deserve to go to the next round."
The revamping of Jamaica at the national level is under way, with Williams expected to play a part in grooming younger players in competitions like the Gold Cup, where Jamaica takes on Mexico on July 13 at Reliant Stadium.
"Personally, I think that was my last experience in World Cup qualifying," Williams, 28, said. "There are a lot of talented young guys, and now I am trying to set the stage for them so they can carry the program on."
Jamaica qualified for the Gold Cup by winning the Championship of the Caribbean, called the Digicel Cup, for the first time in 10 years as Williams scored the game-winner.
The man they call "The Bomber" for his long-range power scored the game-winner in bizarre fashion in a 1-0 victory over Barbados in February.
In the sixth minute, Barbados goalkeeper Jason Boxhill stopped the ball and spotted it, thinking the referee was going to call an offsides infraction. But the referee didn't make the call, and the quick-thinking Williams ran over and kicked the ball into the empty net.
Jamaica's task at Reliant Stadium will be daunting against Caribbean superpower Mexico.
"Mexico has always been a great team, but we are going to go out there and hope for an upset," Williams said. "We need to keep a game like this within reach at the end of 90 minutes, and hopefully you can squeeze in a goal."
Not only is Williams helping to groom future stars of Jamaica, he is expected to be a huge part of the Real Salt Lake midfield for coach John Ellinger.
Williams, who has played limited minutes because of injury, is an intriguing part of a trio of talented attackers for expansion Real Salt Lake that includes Clint Mathis and Major League Soccer's all-time leading scorer, Jason Kreis.
Williams has been impressed with Salt Lake.
"The fans and the city have been wonderful," he said. "Our job is to promote soccer in Utah. With this team, we can get to the playoffs."
Despite his talent, Williams has bounced from club to club in MLS (Columbus, New England, the MetroStars, Miami, Chicago).
England's ranks thinnedManchester United's Rio Ferdinand and Wayne Rooney and Chelsea's John Terry will not be available for England's match with the United States on May 28 in Chicago.
Manager Alex Ferguson of Manchester United asked England manager Sven-Goran Eriksson to give Rooney a breather. Ferdinand will rest a troublesome knee.
Terry and Frank Lampard also will be absent because of lingering foot injuries, and David Beckham and Michael Owen are expected to miss the game because of commitments to Real Madrid.
Odds and endsMexican League first-leg matches take place tonight, with Santos hosting Club America and Necaxa at home against Tecos. ...
Top goal scorers in the league were Matias Vuoso of Santos with 15, followed by Omar Bravo of Chivas and Kleber of Club America (12 each). ... Rodrigo Ruiz of Santos led the league in assists with 11. ...
The MLS ¡Futbolito! 4-on-4 tournament comes to Bear Creek Park on Saturday with an appearance by Colombian legend Carlos Valderrama. To enter a team, call 1-866-965-7484 or go online at www.mlsfutbolito.com. ...
The Columbus Crew will take on legendary Chilean club Catolica on June 4 in Columbus, Ohio. ... In a starting role, 15-year-old Freddy Adu of D.C. United had a goal and two assists in a 3-1 win over the Crew.

Weingarten Realty Investors' (WRI) first-quarter net more than doubled as the shopping-center owner was helped by growing occupancy and lower interest expenses.
The company, which owns or operates roughly 300 shopping centers, has seen stronger rental and occupancy rates lately as business has picked up. Last year, Weingarten sold its portfolio of industrial properties to DRA Advisors LLC for $382.4 million in an effort to focus on becoming a retail real-estate investment trust.
For the latest quarter, Weingarten reported a profit of $44.4 million, or 28 cents a share, up from $21.2 million, or 10 cents a share a year earlier.
Funds from operations--a key measure of profitability in the real-estate sector--rose to 53 cents a share from 46 cents. Excluding depreciation, amortization and other adjustments, recurring FFO increased to 48 cents from 46 cents.
The company said the higher FFO reflected improved operations in its existing portfolio, reduced interest expenses and the impact of acquisitions.
Revenue rose 11% to $131.7 million.
Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters were expecting FFO of 45 cents a share and revenue of $126.5 million.
Interest expenses fell 42% to $18 million.
Occupancy climbed to 93.7%, from 91.7%.
Shares of the company, which affirmed its full-year guidance for recurring FFO, closed at $34.07 and were unchanged after hours. Through the close, the stock was up 27% since the start of the year.

£10 million to help banks provide mortgages
First time buyers in Leicestershire may be about to get a helping hand, thanks to the launch of a new scheme, designed to make mortgages more affordable.
Leicestershire County Council has lent £10 million to Lloyds TSB, so the bank can provide mortgages which require a reduced deposit.
The council hopes to be able to help more than four hundred first time buyers with the Lend a Hand scheme, which in turn should translate into two thousand house moves.
Christina East from Melton says
– Christina East
"I'm still living at home, age 24 - it's a bit sad, really, but I couldn't afford a deposit of about £8,000. I heard about this scheme on the news and got advice. I'm so impressed that I can borrow five times my salary and only have to find a £4,000 deposit.
To hear more about Christina's story, tune into Central Tonight at 6pm.

ISOLA INCANTA, la Tempesta di Shakespeare raccontata ai bambini.
Raccontare La Tempesta di Shakespeare ai bambini è sicuramente una bella sfida; Prospero, Caliban, Miranda, Ferdinando...tanti personaggi e tante situazioni che si incrociano e si accavallano ad un ritmo irrefrenabile, come le ali del piccolo Ariel. Come due artigiane-cantastorie, tiriamo i fili di questa matassa ingarbugliata con l'aiuto di burattini e pupazzi di carta. Bizzarre creature abitano la nostra pic- cola isola, ed un albero molto speciale sarà il luogo prediletto per gli incantesimi di Prospero. In lontananza, l'eco misterioso e solenne di un terribile naufragio... Ma ciò che a prima vista può sembrare terribile, spesso si rivela poi un'illusione, un sogno, una magica premonizione. Noi siamo della materia di cui sono fatti i sogni, ci ricorda lo stesso Prospero. Man mano che il racconto andrà avanti assisteremo ad una meravigliosa storia sulla responsabilità e sulla qualità umana di sapersi fermare, valutare le conseguenze delle proprie azioni ed avere il coraggio di tornare indietro. Il perdono vale più della vendetta. Prospero ha dunque la forza di rinunciare ad un castigo maturato da anni, perdonando i suoi nemici. Dal groviglio della nostra matassa, escono preziosi fili ricchi di significato: il valore dell'umiltà, dei legami familiari, della saggezza contenuta nei libri, ma anche l'evasione sfrenata del sogno, del divertimento e dell'illusione. Ma l'incantesimo sarà davvero compiuto nel momento stesso in cui anche i bambini decideranno di partire con noi per questo viaggio così avventuroso, nel cuore segreto di una piccola "isola incantata".
IL REUCCIO IMPASTATO, dal racconto di Italo Calvino
C'era una volta una Reginotta che volle fare da sé il suo sposo. Con farina, sale e un poco d'acqua creò il suo principe, lo chiamò Re Pipi e se lo sposò. Ma Re Pipi era così bello che anche la Turcacane, strega cattiva, lo volle tutto per sé. La stregaccia fece allora arrivare una grande folata di vento che se lo portò via. Iniziò così per la nostra Reginotta un lungo e magico viaggio alla ricerca del suo amore... La favola di Calvino, che fa parte della raccolta "Il Principe Granchio e altre fiabe italiane", è una storia di intraprendenza femminile attraverso un magico viaggio, che nel nostro spettacolo viene percorso non solo dalla Reginotta ma anche dai bambini e dalle bambine presenti, accompagnati dalle narratrici che con semplici pupazzi di carta raccontano questa storia.

The Baked King - from the story by Italo Calvino
There was once a queen who wanted to marry. With flour, salt and a splash of water she made her Prince. She called him Pipi and he was so handsome that even the evil witch wanted him all for herself.... This story is taken from Italo Calvino's collection of stories "The Crab Prince and other stories." It is a story about feminine initiative within a magical journey. In our show this journey is undertaken, not only by the characters, but also by the children present and the simple paper puppets that tell this story.
THE ENCHANTED ISLE, Shakespeare's Tempest told for young children.
Performing Shakespeare's tempest for children is certainly a great challenge; Prospero, Miranda, Caliban, Ferdinand... lots of characters and situations that intertwine themselves and develop with a light and frenetic rhythm just like the wings of Ariel.As two travelling players, we pull the tangled threads of this story with the help of puppets and characters made of paper. Bizarre creatures live on this island, and a very special tree which is our scene for the enchantments of Prospero. In the distance a mysterious and solemn echo of a shipwreck... but what at first sight could seem terribile, often reveals itself as nothing more than an illusion, a dream, a magical premonition... "We are such stuff as dreams are made on", said Prospero. Bit by bit, as the story unfolds we take part in a wonderful story about responsability and the human capacity to know when to stop, consider consequences of action and to have the courage to turn back. "Pardon is greater than revenge". Prospero has the strength to give up his long sought after revenge and forgive his enemies. From this tangled web, precious strands are pulled out: The value of humanity, family ties, the wisdom contained in books and the power of dreams. But the real enchantment begins when the children decide to leave with us on this our adventure to our tiny enchanted island...

Europe, 1807. A time of revolution and great change.
Black was the greatest of artists. Black was the artist of the Queen. When a younger artist, Blue, arrives at court, he argues with Black over the nature of shadow, with Black insisting that without him there would be no other colour. Despite their differing temperaments, Black takes Blue as a pupil. The Queen commands a painting to be produced so Black and Blue must collaborate. The painting is a huge success but Blue feels that his efforts are barely acknowledged. Lady Red rewards Black, and Blue is overtaken with envy. Frustrated with Black, Blue leaves his teacher and begins to plot his downfall. Over time Blue becomes famous, earning much money. He gradually assumes great power and authority. He imprisons Lady Red, and slowly removes all other colour from paintings. Black is forced to confront his pupil. There is a duel and Blue wins. Now that all the colours are gone, The Queen arrests Blue and condemns him to death so that the other colours may be liberated.
As a company we had to decide how to tell this story. As painting is a visual art, it seemed only natural to use puppets to tell the story. The play investigates the nature of art, painting, friendship and professional rivalry, centering upon the relationship between Black and Blue, and their contrasting characters: Black is older, learned, shy and pedantic, whereas Blue is younger, fashionable and ambitious. The play is not about good and evil but rather the difference between tradition and modernity. The names of the two principal characters also reflect the history of these two colours in that Black was the first colour to have been used by artists around 18,000 years ago, whereas Prussian Blue was created around 1700 in Berlin. The history of art is filled with stories about profes- sional rivalry. Titian and Tintoretto for example. Thirty years stood between Tintoretto and Titian, who was perhaps Tintoretto's master for a while. Yet a mutual disliking grew between them, and many commissions or promises of commissions appeared as attempts to outdo or thwart the other man. Though rivals, they also influenced and inspired one another. For each artist, the others' work was a stimulus that demanded a response. Perhaps rivalry among artists is a vital source of artistic creation. The rivalry that existed between Picasso and Matisse also lit their respective genius, with Matisse once saying that "We are as different as the North Pole is from the South." Both poles are antitheses, yet the ice around them is indistinguishable. Picasso was famously sullen, inhibited and irritated when people questioned him about his work, tried to make him explain what he was unable to explain. Matisse by comparison was lucid, intelligent and easily impressed people.
As a company, we passionately believe that the theatre must not only occupy itself with national heritage but look out beyond its own borders to discover and embrace complexity and diversity. Our aim is to create theatre for as wide and diverse an audience as possible by touring our productions and building our audience. Participating in international festivals and theatres will allow us to encounter new artists and forge international links with potential venues and producers.
Black&Blue is currently in development, with the text and designs undergoing some tweaking, rewriting and redesigning. We expect to go into preproduction later this year.
We see our future continuing to forge links between Italy and the rest of the world, developing our projects and collaborations, seeking out collaborations and creating multi-disciplinary projects, with an imaginative directness, that unite the visual and figurative arts with traditional performance. Giles Smith designs and builds all the puppets himself, which allows a greater imaginative integration with his work as director and dramaturge, as seen in the recent In The Forest (Nella Foresta) which we took to New York in 2012. We are currently without a permanent base, so our greatest priority, is to find a home where we can develop our work.
This project is seeking the following:
A producer /production house
co-production/international festivals.
If you are a producer or festival producer interested in learning more, we would love to hear from you.
Please email here so we can learn more about what you do and how you think you could help.

It's Giro time, and the Stage Predictor Game is back. Everyone is welcome to play. Feel free to join with us at any time and compete for stage wins, but most important will be the hotly-contested overall competition. Since last year's winner got a pink Giro cap signed by Sergey Lagutin, we'll continue the tradition and call the overall competition the cappello rosa. Courtesy of the ever-generous holmovka, there are again some fabulous prizes and trophies:

Pick 4 riders for the stage, the order of your picks doesn't matter. All your riders can score.
Riders score points down to 10th place. Less popular riders score more points than heavily-picked favorites. See below for scoring details.
The strict entry deadline is the official start time of the stage. There's no disadvantage to getting your entry in early, since you may always change your picks before the deadline. Feel free to revise your picks when you see which riders are more or less popular with other players. Post changes in a reply to your original post.
The top 10 finishers score points according to this basic scale from race winner down to 10th place:
However, if riders of all abilities scored the same, we'd all just be picking the big favorites all the time. So we multiply the scale above by a rider's payoff percentage based on the number of players that pick him. More picks, lower payoff. The highest possible payoff for a really unlikely outsider picked by less than 5% of players is 100% of the scale above; the lowest possible payoff for a hot favorite picked by more than 80% of players is 15% of the the scale above.
For example, here's the result from Stage 1:
If you're not familiar with this kind of scoring scheme from previous games, just play along for a few stages and it will soon make sense. All you need to do is pick 4 riders that you like for the stage - maybe go for two obvious favorites and try two outsiders that you fancy for a decent top-10 result.

A route the quality of which is the equal of any in the park. Extolled as a thin hands crack in guide books, I found this overhanging beauty more of a finger crack. Protection is abundant, but you have to hold on to place it. If you can make it through the crux to the pod just below the rim, you can eke out a rest. The finishing moves may not be the hardest on the route, but they are technical enough to wish you had the strength and endurance of a demigod.
A #3 Camalot or similar can be used in the lower easy section. Above that #1 Camalots and smaller can be used. If you can hang out and place nuts like the legends of yore, more power to you.

Mainstream medical practitioners tend to believe that autism is probably caused by a combination of genetic and structural differences. As a result, they stress a combination of behavioral therapies and, when warranted, pharmaceutical treatments. There are many doctors and therapists, however, who believe strongly that autism is caused by biomedical factors (toxins, immune deficiencies, inflammation in the "gut," and/or a combination of these and other issues).
The Defeat Autism Now (DAN!) project, created by the Autism Research Institute, created an approach to autism treatment called the "DAN! protocol" based on the biomedical theory of autism. Many parents believe that DAN! doctors are the best choice to treat their children with autism, and there are many testimonials to the effectiveness of the treatments. DAN! doctors, however, do often prescribe treatments and diets that mainstream doctors question or even denounce.
This new article looks at the origins of the DAN! protocol, and provides a general introduction to what a DAN! doctor is, does, and offers. If your child has been treated by a DAN! doctor (or if you have positive or negative things to share about this treatment approach), please feel free to add your thoughts to this post!

- April 17, 2007 at 12:19 pm(2) Devin's Mom says:
Go to http://www.AutismResearchInstitute.com
You can get a list of the DAN doctors in your area.
Often there is a waiting list for new patients, so don't put it off.
Our DAN doctor is amazing – he has patients fly in from other states, and countries, to see him for treatment.
I recommend (from personal experience) traditional therapies such as speech/OT, as well as the GFCF diet, AND biomedical intervention.
I believe our kids need support at many levels to achieve the best progress.
I don't have time right now to finish all I have to say regarding DAN doctors, but if I get a chance later today or this evening I'll jump back in and add some additional thoughts.
I'd be interested to know if you have a DAN doctor in your area – check in with ARI and let me know.
Good Luck,

Hi, Devin's mom! I am Cayden's mom, my name is Jessica. I have been trying to help my 4 year old son in defeating his autism and it has been very hard! Cayden has no speech or communication, he runs threw the house saying "aahhhh, aahhhh" (beautiful sound) Cayden has been in therapy for awhile now and we are debating whether or not to start him on the GFCF diet??… He does not eat much at all or drink for that matter and EVERYTHING he does eat ha gluten and casseine in it! I am so worried he will starve?… And hearing about the DAN doctor has opened my eyes even WIDER! So if you could help me in any way with any comments, i would really appreciate it! Thanks, Jessica- Cayden's mom

My 3 year old grandson was a dairy and gluten junky. He is now dairy and gluten free and we are noticing a difference after just 2 weeks. At first it was hard and he cried and we could not communicate to him why he could not have his yogurt anymore. He is not zoning out at all and he is saying new words everyday. He is on the system the DAN dr. recommended with vitamins. My daughter-in-law is trying not to stress out about it. He grabbed a few crackers at a cookout this weekend but you just move on and try your best. It is not cheap to live this way with the vitamins and organic foods but it is truly making a difference. The DAN dr. said though that just doing his things will not do it all, your child still needs speech and occupational therapy. Most school districts have pre-k autism programs. Seek that out also and pray for the Lord's healing in your beautiful son.
- June 19, 2011 at 9:16 pm(6) Jeremy's mom says:
Hi Cayden's mom! I just read your post and wondered how your son is doing? Did you start the diet? My son has been on for two months now. I haven't seen any change yet…I am wondering about a DAN doctor. Just really starting to looking in to that. My son is 3 1/2…has little language. Just found this site and hoping to find some help here. best of luck to you

Hi Jessica,
I hope you've found the right treatment for your son. There is a reason why he only wants gluten and casein – he is addicted!

I would never suggest a DAN doctor. Biomedical treat is very harmful to your children. It has made my child more behavioral and emotional. My pumping your child with supplements it really harms their bodies. I have had the best luck with behavioral intervventions. Please only use a DAN doctor as a lst resort.
- May 10, 2011 at 12:50 pm(18) Colleen says:
I am sorry, but my opinion differs, My otherwise normally born boy 9 lbs baby boy,regressed back to a stroller, lost his language, became non social and agressive with consistent drooling….is now completely recovered in less than 2 years and only cost us $6000.00 dls.approx. My sons testimony is on this website of the Biomedical treatment centre in Puerto vallarta called Autismo2Clinica Hiperbarica. He used the very suppliments mentioned as part of the therapy, the Chelation, the HBot. Thank Heavens for these Angels who are few and far between who dedicate thier life and time into the research of biomedical treatment for autism. Suppliments are not harmeful, chemicals and toxins are!! The HBOT (Hyperbaric oxygen chamber) is what brought back his speach. My son did 40 consecutive sessions , 1 h 20 min per day 40 days. After about one week ,,, I cried when he begun to talk. His therapist explained the presurized oxygen reduces the inflamation in his brain caused by heavy metal toxins.
My son Matias is not almost 7 attending a private NORMAL school, no longer attends therapy. speaks, rides his bike and has many friends. I dont need proof, my son is my proof!!!
Don give up parents, AUTISM IS CURABLE!!!! VISIT THE WEBSITE AND GET MORE INFORMATION.
- October 15, 2008 at 11:36 pm(19) Momof3 says:
We have seen major improvements using a DAN doctor. We did the GFCF diet and then when we saw improvements, made an appointment with a reputable one. Then we did testing and slowly introduced a variety of supplements, one at a time. We did not "pump him" full of supplements in an irrational manner. I highly recommend anyone with a child on the spectrum to pursue biomedical. I can't imagine trying to get any traditional therapies to work without first fixing the underlying biomedical issues in the individual child.
- May 10, 2011 at 12:53 pm(20) Colleen says:
just a few tips from a mom with a completely recovered autism child my testimony is on the url provieded. my boy is Matias!
the key, is the treatement all at once, diet (very strict)
nothing from a plastic bag, can or box, go back to mother nature.
diet, chelate, suppliments, HBOT (all at the same time)
took less than two year to recover my son.
Good luck,

In response to Tom, how can biomedical treatment be harmful to a child? That's like putting a drug addict into treatment but allowing him to remain on all his drugs and expecting him to recover. There is no difference between not removing harmful drugs and not removing harmful foods you are allergic to. My 16 year old grandson (who is not ASD) reacted to sugar when he was younger. It made him bounce off the walls nonstop. Do we keep giving him sugar? Of course not. He was controlled and normal without it and could function and learn. He couldn't function or concentrate/learn on it. No different than any other food that someone reacts to. Why do we wear gloves when cleaning with household chemicals like amonia? Because amonia burns your skin and repeated exposure to it will permanently damage the skin. So why would you force your kid to endure the effects of consuming wheat, dairy, gluten, etc., which after repeated exposure cause holes in their stomach lining. You may as well be forcing amonia down their throats. Either way you will lose your kid. Your choice. But personally, I think it's the equivalent to a pregnant woman doing meth.

- November 27, 2008 at 2:39 pm(25) Dawn says:
The only thing that I can think of is that Tom went to someone not very good. By giving your child the wrong supplements, it can lead to worsening of the condition/symptoms. Or, sometimes, with effective treatment you will see a temporary worsening of symptoms. It is hard to say without knowing the entire story, but DAN doctors do work. Regular medical doctors don't have any hope for our vaccine injured children.

We are very fortunate that she isn't experiencing temper tantrums or any stomach problems(that we know of) She is unable to tell us…………

Does your DAN doctor work at St Chris? My 3 year old son was recently diagnosed with Autism and i have been looking for a DAN doctor here in Philadelphia for him. He is currently in an Autistic School Program and recieving daily OT and ST but i havent noticed much of a difference. Other then your daughter, we are now entering in on the severe tantrums that were not present in the past. He also suffers from severe constipation and has become a major issue. My son seems to be regressing, and it is ripping my heart out. I had my son when i was just 17 and this is a battle i was not prepared for but i have done everything in my power to provide him a better life and i feel like having a DAN would help significantly. If there is any informaiton you can provide me i would appreciate in the uttermost way. Thanks for your time.

I'm using successful the DAN! protocol approach. I don't have contact with DAN! doctor. We don't have them in our country, but I bought the book of Jaquilin MacCandless "Children with starving brain" and got the membership on her web site. I follow these treatments and read many things about effective protocols on different WEB site. Dana from US treated all her 3 autistic children by your self with same way. She was diagnosed as heavy ASD, but after 3 years DAN! Protocols she is verbal, glad and we think to take normal school. Think independently and help your child that only you can do NOW!

- November 2, 2009 at 2:33 pm(50) Joe says:
Keep sending your kids to these doctors, because it is going to take a decent body count before you guys realize how "effective" this treatment is. You are saving researchers tons of money, not to mention approval for putting kids health in such danger is hard to receive and the morals of a legitimate doctor (who isn't completely emotionally or financially involved) find it difficult to proceed. GO CRAZY AUTISM PARENTS! YAY!
- November 2, 2009 at 6:24 pm(51) Tammy says:
To Laura:
It's wonderful to hear that your son has recovered.
Can you give more details pls if you don't mind. How old was your son when you began the DAN protocol? When did you started seeing improvement and how? …etc.
Thanks again!
- November 16, 2009 at 3:06 pm(52) Tina says:
To Mira (and Hazem),
I live in Jordan and tried Dr Mohammad Almomani to treat my daughter. All I can say is that I am totally disappointed…it is the worst service and the centre is so unprofessional. It is unfortunate that there no other centres in Jordan other than this one!!
If I was to do this again, I would DEFINITELY not go to this centre to begin with.
To all those that live in the Middle East and need a DAN doctor for their child, I recommend you get online and seek a Dr. from the States…

We have been using a DAN. doctor for the last Six Years and
all i can say is that he has helped my Son 100% compared
to the Traditional Medical approach that made him Violent and grossly overweight. The science is sound compared to
going to a regular Doctor and having your Kid Medicated
to the point were he resembles a piece of Furniture and
not a Real Person. Supplements work with the Body.
Medicine from a Regular Doctor only suppress the symptoms and do not help in the long run and in our case only made the situation worse.

We are fortunate to see a pediatrician from the ICDRC in Melborne, Florida. The strides we have seen in our son are nothing short of incredible. At 7 years old, he had deteriorated to the point of frequent self-injurous behavior, sharp decline in school performance, aggressive outbursts, terrible self-esteem, and multiple GI and immune disoders (ie: entercholitis/Hives/skin problems/wicked allergies). The DAN approach, combined with occupational therapy, hippotherapy, PANDAS treatment and lots of love and patience, have him back on his game. He states he feels comfortable in his own skin for the first time. He is excelling in school, with only minor accommodations for test-taking (small venue, multiple pencils and ability to chew gum to help settle nerves). He is a patrol leader for his scout troop, which is an elected position. He competes in traditional 4-H and special needs horse shows. But, most important of all he is happy and so much healthier. The diet and supplements may be difficult and daunting at times, but the rewards are so worth the effort. Just keep in mind there are no quick fixes, every child is unique with unique chemistry and challenges. The book "Treating the New Childhood Epidemics" is very helpful, albeit a bit technical at times. I found it most useful in explaning my son's protocols to teachers and other traditional pediatricians. By-the-way, to "JOE", our DAN doctor is a licenced/board certified PEDIATRICIAN who happens to treat only kids on the spectrum. He is not less of a physician or person for specializing his practice to the benefit of a certain group of children. Yes, the visits and tests are not cheap, but much of the cost is deferred to fund research and education. Once enough data is accumulated to satisfy the nay-sayers, I am confident the general principles and practices of DAN doctors will become more mainstream. I just pray that doubters spend some quality time researching all of the availble data so as not to discourage parents from seeking treatment that may be a crucial factor toward recovery for their children. Good luck to all along your journey toward recovery. Jen, Mom of Ryan

Regarding "as there is no general consensus on the answer to this question [what causes autism] there is no general consensus on the "best" treatment for autism":
There IS overwhelming, nearly universal consensus (except among the tiny number of DAN doctors) that vaccines and mercury do NOT cause autism, and that chelation therapy and vitamins are of no benefit.

Pfeiffer Treatment Center – Hope Starts Here.
They offer a one-of a kind approach and analyze each individuals biochemical make-up. Their diagnostic approach pinpoints specific biochemical imbalances in earch person so therapies can be tailor made for each individual's precise needs. Their therapies have been proven to relieve symptoms of autism spectrum and improve behavior. They have an on-site licensed pharmacists expertly trained in compounding nutrients therapies, using the highest quality vitamins, minerals and amino acids. They are located in Chicago but trust me this is the best trip you can ever invest in. God bless!

To the people with nasty comments, I guess its obvious that your child doesnt suffer with autism. If so you wouldnt be discouraging other parents. supplements and vitamins are the best and most safest way to go to heal our child, it helps balance out the neurotransmitters in the brain & body without harming. compared to prescription medication which are unsafe and have long term effects even if used once or short term.
To the loving parents, who are doing all they can for their dearest child, please be strong and have hope and faith in your choices and our hard work, because we (you) are their hope in healing, to having a brighter future.
My son Vincent was 2yr when diagnosed with Autism , I started doing alot of research on the net, buying books & lots of reading. therapy is very effective
(study autism really benefits yourself and your child, understanding things that they cant tell us)
Learn all you can about what autism is. what autism kids are sensitive to, foods autism kids react to (hyperactive) stay away from wheat mushrooms, brocoli, etc. bells, noisy loud places, get their hearing check.
most autism kids need a high dose of vitamins esp vit
B6. best to find a doctor who only specialises in autism, developement delay ASD, ADHD etc. not a normal gp.
Warm wishes to healing our child…

Hi Amber,
Not sure if you are still looking for DAN doctor in Alberta (I know this was posted a long time ago, but I am new to this site), I am going to see Dr. Hartman in Sylvan Lake who has been recommended to me from 3 different people. I have not actually seen him myself yet, but have heard numerous good things about his results. His clinic is called "Nature' s Health Clinic" and he has a website listing his creditials, and other information.
Just curious if you found anyone else in Alberta since your post and if you had any success?
- September 29, 2010 at 10:29 pm(78) birgit mccarty says:
I just wanted to know if anyone could tell me the cost of all these DAN doctor treatments; surely the insurance company will not pay for it. My son has an autism spectrum disorder and I was just wandering if he would even qualify for a DNA doctor; he has high functioning autism. ? I did try the GFCF diet and noticed his behavior got worse and he was more highstrong; he has ADHD and a high sensory need.
- June 7, 2011 at 7:11 pm(79) Donna says:
They vary, ours is $40.00 per visit and then you pay for supplements. The 1st visit is $90.00. We are fortunate because our Dr. takes B/C B/S but most of them want just cash and then you can file with your insurance yourself.
- October 8, 2010 at 1:42 am(80) Sam's mom says:

We are also in Calgary, and see Dr. Stuart Wilkinson. He has helped my son tremendously!
Their is another DAN Dr. in Calgary, but stay away from him. He will charge you a fortune, and do nothing. Dr. H is only in it for the money.
Both can be checked out on http://www.ratemds.com

Good luck to you both!

We have received wonderful treatment at DIR – THe Floortime Institute in Bethesda. Maryland.
- October 30, 2010 at 10:06 pm(83) Mother and MD says:
This response is to Terrence. You are absolutely incorrect that there is universal consensus or research that demonstrates that vaccines and mercury are not responsible for the massive epidemics of allergies, chronic disease, cancer and developmental disease we are witnessing. In fact, far more evidence exists throughout scientific literature that it does. What you are confusing is the statements made by the "experts" that determine guidelines. These are administrators and persons with patents in vaccine or other pharmaceutical consulting salaries. Vaccination is a religion, not a science. And it is a religion that worships profit.
- October 30, 2010 at 10:08 pm(84) Mom and MD says:
cont Terrence
Ask any AAP/AAFP boarded doctor who gives vaccines (even the DAN! doctors) what original literature they have read on the efficacy and safety of individual vaccines. Ask what journals published them. I estimate 98% have not read anything but their academy's guidelines. Sorry, but we are kept as blind as sheep when it comes to vaccines and only get second hand information through our academies. The AAFP has had only one article in their journal through the last two decades on vaccines. They site two papers – the Danish study and a study which evaluated use of special education in California (that actually concluded Autism was not increasing:). The Danish study was funded in part by their largest pharmaceutical company. The collection and manipulation of data was horrendous in the Danish study. It is as if they were mocking evidence based medicine. You can find a number of critiques of its abuse of research standards.
- October 30, 2010 at 10:10 pm(85) Mother and MD says:
There was a new study recently of 1000 patients that the AAP reported compared vaccinated and unvaccinated children. They were all vaccinated. They had no definition of variables –all the kids vaccines schedules were all over the place and they used neurologic tools to evaluate that do are not consistent and do not measure what we see happening at each developmental milestone. A handful of recent poorly, constructed papers have basically been done to cover up what has happened by the gross negligence of the CDC, the World Health Organization and Pharmaceuticals. There are literally no good papers that demonstrate that vaccines accomplish immunity. In fact, research over and over again proves they prove they do not. Vaccines create a chronic humoral response which decimates the immune system and the response lasts anywhere from a few months (if you are lucky – if their is no adjuvant) to maybe fives years. I look through my medical texts and read the vaccine section – we were never shown the original research (because it was not done) the portion to describe the human response to vaccines was copied from the section of the body's response to the illness after recovery. We only gain true immunity by having a disease and recovering. Childhood illnesses exist as part of the maturation process of our immune system.
- October 30, 2010 at 10:11 pm(86) mother and MD says:
cont terrence
Other epidemics that die our of our society after herd immunity is achieved – a large portion of the community has had the disease and recovered. It has never been proven and in fact research shows the body never gains long term immunity with vaccination. This is why we keep trying booster after to booster. In fact, all you are doing is creating a great load of antigen attached to a adjuvant (aluminum) so that is difficult of the body to excrete the compound. Thus, the body continues a chronic humoral response. I highly recommend Dr. TenPenny's "Saying No to Vaccines". I have been dedicating my time to showing my colleagues the evidence that does and does not exist for vaccines. What most physicians and consumers do not understand is that our government boards are run by industry. There are no more ethics in the development in pharmaceuticals than in cigarettes or the pesticide companies that got their beginning in our government's defense department. The industrial leaders run our FDA and they control media coverage just as their colleagues in the rest of the trillion dollar chemical companies that run the EPA and USDA. Protection of our citizens has come from grass roots private monies to lobby within these arenas. Our allopathic system over the last several decades has become almost entirely financed to find medicine that is profitable not curative. The human body was made perfectly and it suffers only by what man made materials we submit it too. The medical establishment has failed in terms of vaccines, but what is unforgivable is their attempt to hide their failure. The biomedical research that is being done to help children with Austism to ADHD are just beginning to uncover what enzymatic, autoimmune, nutritional and neurologic issues are being devastated.

You know, I'm not a big proponent of vaccinations myself; as an adult, I do not get them for the flu and such. Mother and MD, I think that you make very good points about vaccines in general and their usage, however the fact remains that that does not indicate that vaccinations cause autism. Autism is characterized by a failure to develop appropriately, not by regression of development. Why do people not consider that perhaps such environmental "toxins" such as vaccines, mercury, etc. can potentially lead to autism-like symptoms without it being autism?? The fact that people who subscribe to this DAN! doctor phenomena have failed to distinguish between autism that is characterized by failures in meeting developmental milestones and this thing that is characterized by regression after a period of normal development (which people then call "autism caused by vaccination"). I'm sure DAN! doctors are very helpful for kids whose problems stem from systemic imbalances, however that is not what true autism is. These are two different issues stemming from different origins that require different treatments. If DAN! doctors work for your child without behavioral intervention, OT/PT, and other traditional autism therapies, then your child was misdiagnosed.

To Kiran Patil and Taru,
I wish i could check this website and help you earlier..but as they say its never too late.
My nephew is diagnosed with Autism a year back at the age of 3.5. He was in India for close to 10 months and we took him to all possible doctors here, they could easily observe his behaviour- like head banging, toe-walking, poor hand-eye coordination but none could come even close to the diagnosis. So forget about getting a DAN treatment. Now my nephew is in UK and getting regular treatment there. We are also runnign a pathbreaking " Son-Rise" program for Full recovery from Autism, along with other biomedical interventions and alternative therapies for him. Believe me within months, we have seen a lot of improvement in him. I would strongly urge the parents and relatives to visit the the site; http://www.autismtreatmentcenter.org/
This is a true story of their Son called Raun who fully recovered from autism and similar other success stories.
I would love to help anyone with more information if you are interested. Please would request you all to first program if you have tried everything else as well.
Lots of love and affection to all the kids who need us on daily basis. Its all about accepting them as they are and loving them.
God Bless!

Hello, I am just going to start out by saying i am going off second hand information from an autism behavioralist who also will teach them to share play with other children even speak. Personally I believe these DAN doctors are a waste of money. From what I hear these "doctors" believe that Autism is caused by too many chemicals in the brain. So one treatment i hear is they pump toxins into your child to eliminate these excess chemicals. The truth is that the cause for autism is in the brain. There is something "not connected" in their brain. Has anyone heard a child with autism make noise, kinda sounds like gibberish? Well that's them trying to speak. They know what they want to say they just cant put the words together.
- June 10, 2011 at 7:05 pm(96) Anonymous says:
I am sure that these dan doctors don't do anything but its up to you i am sure i made my point in my previous post…Your child's gibberish is actually them trying to talk. So one suggestion i have for anyone with a child that has autism teach them sign language and learn it yourself. If that is out of the question there is this program called PECS. Just click on the word and it should take you to the about page on the PECS site. basically it is just little cards with pictures on them that they can pull off a velcro strip and hand to you. For instance if i had autism and I wanted candy, i would find the card that had the picture of candy and it would say candy under it and i would hand it to you.
Thank you for reading this post and please respond.

DAN doctors apparently apply a number of treatments but the heart of it appears to be elimination of offending substances from the extensive literature reviews I am doing. My personnal experience is based on a couple of cases where a 4 day food diary followed by 5 days of 100% elimination of all the individual's commonly eaten foods (and food additives) was very carefully administered. Very sensitive individuals can certainly have problems beyond just gluten and casein so all regular foods/drinks are replaced by "unusual" but healthy foods just for the test period. This was similar to the 1980′s Dr. Marshall Mandell's approach (5 day Allergy Relief) but did not require fasting. Fast and complete relief of all Autisism and ADHD types of symptoms. No risk, no suppliments or chelation were needed and a 4-5 day rotation diet uncovered food sensitivities. In my converstaions with CDC they unfortunately still restrict the definition of "allergy" to IgE mediated reactions and refuse to consider other mechanisms/sensitivities that are difficult to study in the double blind, placebo controlled method I wish we could employ. Happy to share more as I study further

Lubbock Congressman Randy Neugebauer is one of the Republican House members who voted against the bailout proposal. Supporters of the plan said it was defeated in part because of politics.
Even though there's been some panic on Wall Street, local economist Peter Summers says people in Lubbock don't have much to worry about right now. "Most people in Lubbock probably won't notice that anything has really changed that much," says Summers.
And that is pretty much how Congressman Randy Neugebauer of Lubbock feels. "I voted against the bill because of a couple things. One, I think it is unprecedented authority to give the Secretary of the Treasurer. Secondly, we're in uncharted waters here, but this is a major federalization of our credit markets, and I'm a firm believer that markets will offer better solutions if given the time," Neugebauer stated after the vote.
Congressman Neugebauer's opponent in the November 4th election is Dwight Fullingam. "Make no mistake, if Americans cannot buy houses, automobiles, food, and all the other manufactured goods they have been buying, the outlook for the whole world will be bleek indeed."
Fulllingam thinks Congress should have done something Monday even though many national news reports indicate that voters think Congress did the right thing.
Lubbock financial planner Mark Bass, who is nationally respected, was shocked by the news of no bailout. "I was really surprised about, because you have allegedly this bipartisan effort to go in and bring the calvary and fix the system, save the day, but it didn't happen," said Bass.
Bass does not think Congress will go along with Neugebauer's idea of letting the market fix its own problem. "I really doubt that they'll just let the market work itself out, even that, in some regard that might, be the best thing to have happen," adds Bass.
We should point out Lubbock is not totally free of the problem. Professor Summers says if the market failures continue then Lubbockites with pension plans based in failing markets may suffer.

Sept. 21, 2005
South Georgia - Voters in four South Georgia counties gave the nod to local option sales taxes.
In Worth County, voters approved a SPLOST that's expected to raise $7.6 million over five years.
461 people voted yes, 103 opposed the tax.
A similar result in Irwin County where the sales tax money will pay for improvements at county schools.
533 voters supported the referendum, 172 did not.
Voters in Terrell County overwhelmingly approved a sales tax extension.

This was quite yummy and rich with complex flavors. A bit of prep work ahead of going into crockpot so make sure to plan for it.
Didn't have beef, so we used 4 large chicken breasts, cut up, and a pound of Italian sausage. We also added more liquid (tomatoes and stock). At the end, we used coconut flour to thicken into a gravy.
Lovely dish….nice tender beef.

Large institutions, which includes universities, have one sacred cow that they will do anything to protect. Image!
The guilt or innocence of individuals is of little concern. Purporting to hold themselves to a higher standard, institutions will often close whole departments or programs to protect their precious image. Institutions will do anything to disassociate themselves from bad publicity. This type of institutional disregard for the hardship to be inflicted on innocent employees and their families is a prescription for cover-up.
. Let's face it! A graduate assistant who accuses a beloved superior , without video evidence or multiple witnesses, will often find himself a disgruntled ex-employee with little hope of future employment. Thank God, Pennsylvania has a whistleblower law. As it was, instead of being applauded for courage in trying to step up and correct a wrong, you are demeaned for not doing enough.
It's easy to talk ethics, but reality is something else. The vast majority of people will follow the prime rule of survival- Protect yourself and your own family first. There is an old conundrum- If you have two of your children drowning and you can only save one, which one do you save? Substitute a neighbor's child for one of the drowning children and most people would find the solution simpler. Do we really expect people to jeopardize the ability to take care of their own families?
If we do, perhaps it's time to pass laws to protect the innocent individual from large institutions and their lack of concern with the hardship they inflict on the innocent. The institutional solution of eliminating anything and everyone associated with a problem only leads to more cover-ups.

I'm glad so many future right-wing militia members could get together. Will David Duke be able to make the next Tea Party?

Why so Militant? You seem to be a rude and ignorant person(stating the obvious). If you Know not of what you are speaking, you should either educate yourself or shut your mouth. Though you do "real" freedom loving Americans a great service in highlighting the true lack of decorum and weak minds of people like you have, it is still disturbing to see that fascism is alive and well in this country.

Robert Paul Perez,
I'm glad you're so proud of your Tea Bagging "real" freedom loving Americans. Maybe you should take a look at what Tea Parties and Fox News encourage. Have fun at your next right-wing hatefest.
