This book is one of 3 that changed our family's life. (Facing autism which made us know in our hearts the diagnosis was right & William shaw's book which details more of the science of this stuff are the other two.)I believe that there are many reasons children are on the autistic spectrum and that this book will only help some.

This review is from: Unraveling The Mystery Of Autism And Pervasive Developmental Disorder: A Mothers Story Of Research And Recovery (Hardcover)
Karen Seroussi has woven a remarkable, well-written story of her son's recovery from Autism through tedious dietary interventions. Her offering of recipes gives the parents considering the diet for their children a place from where to start. As the mother of two Autistic children myself, I felt compelled to read it, even though a grueling 18 month trial of the diet in our home offered few, if any, results, other than depriving my sons of what foods they were willing to eat.
Seroussi is a gifted writer, and tells her story from her mother's heart. But facets of her story disturbed me deeply. After reading this book, I felt my choice to live as a mother who has come to accept her children's Autism and lead them towards a good life in spite of grim prognoses was viewed by the author as something to feel ashamed of. While this may not have been Seroussi's intent, the insistence that something is wrong with parents who don't try her techniques, or tried the diet and had it fail are somehow lacking was very bothersome to my heart.
Granted, dietary interventions have helped many Autistic children. However, this his book implicates that any parent who does not attempt the diet which benefitted Ms. Seroussi's son is failing his/her child. Children who respond to diet are most specifically those showing a serum IGE response to specific allergens and gliadin antibodies. I'd strongly recommend any parent who considers putting a child through such a restrictive regime will get the bloodwork done first. This diet is not easy to implement and it is not easy to encourage an older child to follow it when away from home.
This book tells a rare, triumphant story. It is well documented, and worth a read. But please, don't see diet as a cure-all if the techniques outlined simply don't work for your child. The sad truth is, if diet were the cure, there would be no Autism.

This review is from: Unraveling The Mystery Of Autism And Pervasive Developmental Disorder: A Mothers Story Of Research And Recovery (Hardcover)
This was the first book I read in the beginning of our quest to help my stepson become a more functional complete person (he's "PDD-with autistic...yada yada"). This book gives an excellent overview of the gluten-free/casine free and digestive system treatments and digestive-system-based etymology behind autism..
Not all autistic-spectrum kids will have this etymology, but ours does. Will your kid eat a loaf of bread if given the chance? Does he want a gallon of milk? Does he drink more water than you......right before bed? Does he eat the lemon slice from your iced tea? Did he have horrid ear infections and take constant anti-biotics? He just MIGHT be one of these kids who the diet/vitamin therapy will help!
As for the book, you'll need recipies/advice/etc that is not in here...but if you're just getting started or are interested in learning mroe about this treatment and evaluating your kid for it, then this is your book.
Serroussi is an excellent writer! My wife is a less-than-avid reader and she devoured the first 100 pages in an afternoon. If your facing autism without a related genetic disorder (such as fragile-x) then this book is a MUST read.
Since beginning the diet in may or so, my stepson now constructs basic sentances, actually interacts with other children and countless other improvements. He's not cured by any means, but we are confident that he'll grow into a functional adult.
I owe Serroussi big for that! To think, I only stumbled onto this book by chance.

This review is from: Unraveling The Mystery Of Autism And Pervasive Developmental Disorder: A Mothers Story Of Research And Recovery (Hardcover)
I read this book in one sitting, and found much that interested me greatly. I was far more convinced by it than by anything else I have read to think more about a special diet for my autistic spectrum child, and was also fascinated by the many other theories touched on here---the connection between autism and auto-immune disorders, ideas about mothers for whom the MMR vaccine doesn't "take" and having a child with autism, etc. However, a few things about this book disturbed me. Although the book does state that the very restricted special diet seems to only work in 1 of 3 children with autism, the author seems to have quite a bit of anger and disdain for parents who chose not to try the diet---I was really troubled by her description of a scene in a grocery store after a meeting with a parent who had not been convinved to try the diet. I feel quite sure I know what at least partially caused my child's autism, and although I am extremely open to and interested in all theories and ideas on how to help him, I do not want to be judged for not trying any certain one. However, if you do have a child with autism, I think that it's worth reading this book, as it's well written, and making a decision on your own as to what to do with what you do with what you read here.

After buying and reading Karyn's remarkable book a few months ago, I have had great difficulty keeping track of who I have promised to lend it to next. No teacher, therapist, parent, or professional has it long, because they read through so quickly. Frankly, I really miss having my copy at home. I guess I'll just have to buy another one, donate it to our library and refer all borrows there. I am grateful that there so many people impressed, having witnessed my son's improvements through dietary intervention over the last year, that they are lined up to learn more. It is revealing that providers of other interventions are beginning to advocate for dietary intervention. Where I live, it is becoming fast appreciated that dietary intervention needs to be tested by parents as a complimentary intervention to other autism therapies. I am grateful to Karyn & Miles for sharing their story. Theirs is a phenomenal contribution to spreading the message of the diet and a striking insight to the experience of so many families now facing a diagnosis of autism.
5.0 out of 5 stars Transformed Sceptic,
By A Customer
This review is from: Unraveling The Mystery Of Autism And Pervasive Developmental Disorder: A Mothers Story Of Research And Recovery (Hardcover)
I am the father of a 3 1/2 year son who has been diagnosed with Autism just four months ago. I am a natural sceptic and a person who typically relies on empirical evidence, especially when it comes to medicine. I read Ms. Seroussi's book and questioned a great deal of the information and considered some of its assertions as 'fringe' thinking. However, a few things she descibed about her son and his development struck a cord: numerous ear infections, an almost drug-like haze over my son, and finally - milk. He drank a ton of it and always wanted more. Six months ago, we found out his 6 week old sister was in fact allergic to milk, and food allergies tend to be hereditary. The parallels were compelling. We consulted our physicain about doing a complete allergy test on him and she was reluctant because he showed no outward signs (rashes, bumps, diarrhea). The specialist who treated my daughter was also sceptical but agreed to run some tests. The results ... a severe milk allergy and an allergy to wheat. Both practitioners were shocked and taken back. FINALLY! We are on to something. If we had not read this book, chances are we would not have known about some of these intertwined relationships that could lead to or complicate autism. There is probably no silver bullet and it may not be true for your child, but you should unquestionably read this book to find out about emerging thoughts on the causes and treatment of autism. This sceptic is not so sceptical any more.

As a psychologist interested in learning disabilities and the brain; as a patient who was also treated for depression, panic attacks, chronic fatigue and intestinal illness through food allery diagnosis and treatment which was incredibly successful; and as a woman with a close relative who is autistic, I appreciated this well-written, beautifully presented story of a boy and his parents who cared to take the time to research his disease, to challenge the negligent and rigid traditional medical community, to find and persist with a cure, and to sacrifice their time to spread the word to the far too many families with children suffering from the epidemic of autism or developmental problems/learning disablities. We hear too often of parents who simply accept a diagnosis and put their children on the current drug (e.g., ritalin) without bothering to actually behave like parents and use sound judgement and their parental instincts. Karyn is a hero in her son's life and in the growing effort to publicize the dangers of the intense battery of vaccinations given to babies at far too early an age. Her book is not bitter, however, but inspiring. You'll hear about Miles' symptoms and behaviors, about Karyn's concerns and fears, of pioneering psychologists and physicians who literally risk their careers on finding the source and cure for autism. Karyn details all her experiences from discoveries that opiate byproducts are found in autistic children's urine (e.g., some reaction is going on in their bodies that is like putting them on hallucinogenic drugs), using the food elimination diet on Miles and finding miraculous results, working with other mothers and their "autistic" children, interacting with physicians who were finding clues and treatments such as Secretin (including her husband, a research scientist). Karyn's life completely changed with the diagnosis of autism, and always at the back of her mind is the suspicion concerning Miles' vaccinations -- until this book even offers the experimental proof found though denied and ignored by the medical community and the pharmaceutical companies manufacturing the "cash-cow" vaccines. Parents who trust medical experts need to read this book to realize in just what poor, ill-informed, close-minded, and unconcerned hands their children (and themselves,too) can be. The author goes further and tells her own and her husband's stories, and she even uses the food allergy principles to cure her chronic fatigue. This is a dramatic story, told humbly. It is fascinating reading simply as the biography of a disease. I don't believe I've ever encountered a book that I could recommend more than this one, for any person who wants to lead a better quality life. NOTE: the diet Karyn used for her son, including recipes, is included, as well as info on websites and organizations.

This review is from: Unraveling The Mystery Of Autism And Pervasive Developmental Disorder: A Mothers Story Of Research And Recovery (Hardcover)
Maybe, like me, you have considered drugs for your autistic child, but have been understandably reluctant. Maybe you are overwhelmed by the vast amounts of information bombarding you daily concerning the causes of autism. Maybe your educational intervention progran hasn't quite worked as well as you hoped it would.
If so, get this book. It deserves a place right next to Catherine Maurice's groundbreaking book on intervention through educational methods, LET ME HEAR YOUR VOICE. Actually, it deserves a place of honor right on your kitchen table, where you can refer to it everyday, easily. What Catherine Maurice did for education vis vis autistic children, this book does for dietary intervention.
Karyn Seroussi has written a practical, clear, acessible book about how your child's diet can affect his/her whole way of living in our world. She posits that the health (particularly, a damaged immune system) of your child is one of the major reasons your child diplays autistic behaviors. She has incorporated her own child, Miles, and her own family, in a most compassionate and perceptive way to demonstrate this. I found that, in and of itself, a comfort. We are all in this together, aren't we? We need to help each other. This book is all about helping OUR CHILDREN get better.
Parents of autistic children have it hard enough without having to sift through the incredible, time consuming theories and treatments that come our way daily. Karyn covers all of these and makes them understandable. She explains things. Then she gives you step by step directions to follow to actually improve the health of your own autistic child (or in my case, autistic children: I have two!) This book makes so much sense and is so exciting to read, I wrote this review as soon as I finished it. Even if my own children do not experience the same remarkable recovery that Karyn's son Miles did (she caught his autism really early), I know, from my other reading, that this book ultimately makes total sense... and that my sons will be immeasurably improved. For that, I am incredibly grateful. Thank you, Karyn Seroussi.

This review is from: Unraveling The Mystery Of Autism And Pervasive Developmental Disorder: A Mothers Story Of Research And Recovery (Hardcover)
Karen Seroussi's book is an excellent summary of information I pulled from many different sources - including the internet and tapes of DAN! Conferences. If I had been able to read her book immediately after my son's diagnosis, rather than waiting to find the information from many different sources and then assessing it myself, (without, of course, the true support of our pediatrician) then maybe my son would be even further along than he already is. And he is doing amazingly well.
Karen has written an outstanding book. It reads like a John Grisham book - like when I read John Grisham, I could not put it down, and was up until 3:00 a.m. to finish it!
While this therapy may not be the path of choice for every family, I believe that every family must be aware of it as an option. This book is a must read for anyone who knows a family dealing with autism. I already know of two families who are going to put their child on a gluten/casein free diet simply because of the Parents magazine article which is a summary of this book.
I would love to have a copy to give every family with a very young child just receiving a diagnosis! Especially those who may not be inclined to do research on their own and who will wait for their doctor to tell them what to do. Better yet, I wish I had a copy for every pediatrician!
It was on Amazon.com, while reading a parent discuss his opinion of William Shaw's book, that I realized my son had symptoms I had not even thought of. I hope that this book will guide you to a therapy that you may not have known of or may not have considered otherwise.

This review is from: Unraveling The Mystery Of Autism And Pervasive Developmental Disorder: A Mothers Story Of Research And Recovery (Hardcover)
Fresh from the printer I just got Karyn Seroussis book on how her son recovered from autism on a diet free of gluten and casein. I started reading it and couldn't put it down before I had read the last paragraph. Maybe if I hadn't been in a position of seeing for myself the amazing difference of applying the diet, I might have thought the whole idea ludicrous. But while reading this success story I am also seeing for myself, in my own home, the practical effects of a diet free of gluten and protein from milk, on my own son. It makes me want to say to every parent in this world with a child diagnosed with autism or Autism Spectrum Disorders: Don't lose hope! There is a lot that can be done! Maybe not every child can recover but every child can have a better life! In this endeavour Karyn Seroussi has been one of the pioneers. It is important to point out that Seroussi is a woman with a very clear, scientific mind - this is not new age magic. Behind the practice of the diet there is an elaborate scientific theory on peptides not broken down properly in the gut, interfering in an irregular and morphine-like way with the opiate receptors in the brain and causing all sorts of damage in the process. Unraveling these lines of reasoning is straightforward science, but at the same time also a story of suspense. A few years ago Catherine Maurice's book "Let Me Hear Your Voice" meant a breakthrough and a wider acceptance for ABA-therapy for children with autism - I am convinced Seroussis book will have the same kind of inpact for dietary and other biological interventions for children with autism. This will mean saving the lives of hundreds, maybe thousands of children. Seroussis book is both deeply personal and also very clear, with a lot of straightforward and simple advice. It's the kind of book I would love to see in an Oprah show discussing what can be done for kids afflicted with one of the most difficult handicaps there is. This book is a must for everyone trying to come to terms with one of the most devastating things that can happen to a child - regardless of whether you're a parent, a sister or brother, a grandparent or just a compassionate human being. And what's more, it is a book that gives you hope and shows you a way to go forward. This hope is dearly needed: Autism is an epidemic on the rise - statistics show an increase by several 100s %in the last few years. No one yet knows the reason - but in her book Serrousi gives us some of the instruments to start fighting back. I would recommend this book specially to those who have recently started their journey with a very special child - it is often heartbreaking and sad and extremely tiring - and you may even blame yourself at some point. But take a deep breath - soon you will walk the road of the diet together. You're both worth it.

This review is from: Unraveling The Mystery Of Autism And Pervasive Developmental Disorder: A Mothers Story Of Research And Recovery (Hardcover)
A year ago, when my son was diagnosed, I read William Shaw's book about biological interventions. It scared me to death. I decided to bag the whole idea of changing my little one's diet. I thought this was a bunch of junk. Fortunately, I decided to investigate this intervention again with Ms. Seroussi's book. I am so thankful that I did. Not only is Karyn Seroussi a great writer, she completely sold me on the idea of trying the diet. She is so passionate, and gives wonderful, heartfelt advice. And my son is responding. It is hard to get started, but once you become used to the idea, it becomes second nature. If you have been skeptical, or worse, your child's doctor advises that this doesn't work- as mine did- give this book a chance. It is so worth it. I'm just sorry I lost a year in the process. We, as parents, would do ANYTHING to help our kids, so why not this? Try it, and READ THIS BOOK!!!!!

Husband Charged in Murder Hyped as Hate Crime
by IPT News • Nov 9, 2012 at 4:06 pm
An Iraqi-exile woman's murder outside San Diego last March now appears to be a case of domestic violence.
Shaima Alawadi was bludgeoned to death in her home in El Cajon, Calif. The case drew international attention as a possible hate crime when a note found near her body said "Go back to your country, you terrorist." But police said they were investigating other leads. Alawadi's husband, Kassim Alhimidi, reportedly was arrested Thursday evening and charged with first degree murder.
Investigators found draft divorce papers in Alawadi's van after the murder and the San Diego Union-Tribune reports that she discussed taking her kids to Texas to live with relatives.
It's a far more common motive than the claims made immediately after the killing.
Islamist groups used the note, which would now appear to have been an attempt to misdirect investigators, to argue that Islamophobia in America had grown so severe that Muslims were being attacked in their homes or for their dress. Alawadi wore a hijab.
A Facebook page called for "a Million Hijab March" to protest the killing. Activists likened her case to the Florida shooting death of teenager Trayvon Martin, who allegedly was seen as threatening in part because he wore a hoodie.
Dawud Walid, who leads the Michigan office for the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), was among those who pushed the hate crime theory. "Shaima Al-Awadi's murder, like Trayvon Martin's, was a senseless murder based upon racial animus," he said. "We must come together as a society to have frank discussions about the toxic rhetorical environment which we currently live in that leads to such wanton violence."
Alawadi's death is a tragedy no matter why it happened. And it shows groups like CAIR and others will continue to hype hate crimes without any proof, and often in cases that turn out to be entirely wrong.

If anyone has any doubts about a certain% of Muslims in the U.S ,this attempt by the Islamic terrorist supporters should dispel it.The note that it was a hate crime,seems to be fabricated.At least now the guy is detained.But this is an ominous sign of the powere of gropus like CAIR to undermine the U.S in the devilish ways of Muslim sharia and jihad!

Until now! Allow yours truly, the President of Pelican Nation, to show you some of the coolest submissions to the 99designs contest.
First up is the winning effort from designer Tin Bačić (his 99designs profile page, personal website) of Zagreb, Croatia. He took home $500 and he gets top placement in this here blog post. Oh, and 99designs is also taking measures to make sure the team and the league gets their eyes on the image above this article.
Here's some more fun (and weird) ones for your eyeballs. Some are cool like "hey, a Pelican and a basketball and a fleur-de-lis all together!" while others are like "wait, why is that Pelican crammed inside of that basketball? Is he okay?!"

Saffron is the dried stigmas (the female reproductive parts) of the saffron crocus ( crocus sativus).
It takes about 70,000 crocus blossoms or 210,000 stigmas to yield just a pound of saffron.
late 14c., from Latin crocus, from Greek krokos "saffron, crocus," probably of Semitic origin (cf. Arabic kurkum), ultimately from Sanskrit kunkumam, unless the Sanskrit word is from the Semitic one. The autumnal crocus (Crocus sativa) was a common source of yellow dye in Roman times, and was perhaps grown in England, where the word existed as Old English croh, but this form of the word was forgotten by the time the plant was re-introduced in Western Europe by the Crusaders.

[ Background | Equipment | Where ]
Football is derived from the sports of rugby and soccer, in Canada dating back to 1861. The game is played on a field 110 yards long (100 in the US) and played with an oblong-shaped ball. The object of the game is to score points by running and carrying the ball, or throwing it to a team mate past the opposing team's goal line (a "touchdown"). You can also score field goals by kicking a ball through the uprights in the other team's goal posts. Each team has 11 players on the field playing either "offence" (the team with the ball) or "defence" (the team blocking) from a complement of over 30 players. In the Canadian Football League, teams play three "downs" or attempts to score a touchdown or a field goal. In the US, they play with four downs. The season usually starts in June and runs through until November (in the US, it finishes with January's Superbowl game). Football is a demanding sport that combines speed, agility, strength, and precision.
Football varies on cost depending on competitive level. To play flag or touch football all you really require are football cleats and athletic wear (and of course the football). To play tackle football you'll need football cleats (shoes), gloves, mouth guard and a protective cup. Together, these items will cost about $130-$150, and are available at selected sporting goods stores around town. Most teams will provide you a helmet, shoulder, thigh, knee and tail bone pads (there might be a rental or league fee for this).
Tackle football is an extra curricular activity in most high schools. For those no longer in school, contact:

Originally written on Steelers Depot | Last updated 9/10/12
New York Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis suffered a mild concussion in the Jets 48-28 win over the Buffalo Bills on Sunday, but he is expected to suit up next week against the Pittsburgh Steelers. When asked on Monday whether or not Revis would play Sunday, Jets head coach Rex Ryan said that he would "lean on the doctors and the trainers" Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Monday night that the Jets will put Revis through additional testing this week, but "essentially he looks to be a go at this point in time." Revis is undoubtedly one of the best cornerbacks in the game today, and would be Read more [...]

Cleveland Browns' Up And Down Seasons Ends In Disappointment Again
The Cleveland Browns had so much hype going into the season and they appeared to be proving themselves in the early and middle portions of the season.

Operating Systems
BeleniX v0.6 LiveCD
The BeleniX LiveCD that is based off of OpenSolaris with GNU applications has reached version 0.6 after some setbacks. While this release is coming out later than expected, it is based upon OpenSolaris Build 60, uses X.Org 7.2, features Compiz 0.5 for Xfce and KDE, offers usbdump integration, and sports many other improvements. BeleniX is a OpenSolaris distribution we enjoy very much and would encourage all of you experimenting with Linux or Solaris to try it out.
25 May 2007
PCLinuxOS 2007
The much anticipated release of PCLinuxOS, version 2007, is now available for download. This Linux distribution release comes after a month of server problems for the PCLinuxOS team, but that's not to say the developers weren't busy finishing off this final version. New in PCLinuxOS 2007 is KDE 3.5.6, the Linux 188.8.131.52 kernel, OpenOffice.org 2.2, Thunderbird 2.0, FrostWire, and over 5,000 additional packages through the software repository.
22 May 2007
Yoper Linux 3.0 RC1 LiveCD
When we heard Yoper Linux 3.0 RC1 was available, we immediately started downloading it. Yoper has been quiet recently -- to the fact where it dropped to the 69th position at DistroWatch -- but Yoper 3.0 Limenite looks promising. Making up the first release candidate of Yoper 3.0 is the Linux 188.8.131.52 kernel, the Con Kolivas patchset, X.Org 7.2, KDE 3.5.6, and other cutting edge packages. After trying out the Yoper 3.0 RC1 LiveCD it does look extremely promising, but there is definitely some room left for improvement.
19 May 2007
GNOME 2.19.2 Desktop
GNOME 2.19.2 is the second of nine development releases leading up to GNOME 2.20.0, which is due out this September. GNOME 2.19.2 is being released today and for those of you interested in the latest changes to GNOME, we have included some screenshots taken from GNOME 2.19.2 built this afternoon with GARNOME. In the process of trying out this latest desktop environment we had run into several crashes and bugs -- GNOME 2.19.2 is not for those new to Linux.
16 May 2007
Ubuntu Studio v7.04
Ubuntu Studio is an Ubuntu incarnation that focuses on software packages for the multimedia creation crowd. Found in Ubuntu Studio 7.04 are a horde of packages for graphic, video, and audio editing. The Ubuntu Studio theme has went black in a radical turn away from the traditional Ubuntu orange. If you are into multimedia editing and mastering, Ubuntu Studio is definitely worth checking out. In Ubuntu 7.10 all of the Ubuntu Studio packages should be available in the main Canonical repository.
15 May 2007
Gentoo Linux 2007.0
While late, the first Gentoo release of the year is now available for download. Gentoo 2007.0 features a rewritten LiveCD installer, updated packages, GNOME 2.16.2, and other improvements over Gentoo Linux 2006.
13 May 2007
SLAX is one of our favorite Linux distributions so when SLAX 6.0 RC3 was released you can be sure that had caught our attention. New in SLAX 6.0.0 RC3 is the Linux 22.214.171.124 kernel, full NTFS write support, and upgrades to Slackware current. This mini LiveCD distribution is definitely an interesting distribution worth trying out for an older PC or if you are simply looking for a lean and efficient distribution.
8 May 2007
Litrix v7.4 Linux LiveCD
We've never heard of this Brazilian Linux distribution but decided to give it a shot with the recent release of Litrix v7.4. The Litrix LiveCD is based upon Gentoo Linux and with the new additions in v7.4 being NTFS write support, support for wireless networking, i686 optimizations, NVIDIA's binary blob pre-installed, and Beryl integration.
6 May 2007
PCLinuxOS 2007 Test 4
After a month of server issues and other problems, this distribution is back online and with a new test release. PCLinuxOS 2007 Test 4 is the final test release and includes the Linux 18.104.22.168 kernel, KDE 3.5.6, OpenOffice.org 2.2, and other new improvements.
1 May 2007
Fedora 7 Test 4
Today's release marks the final test release for Fedora 7 before its final debut on May 24. Some of the changes making up this release includes the implementation of the new wireless stack, a 2.6.21-rc7 based kernel, and reverting away from the new Echo icon set. Fedora 7 has shaped up very nicely, but it hasn't become the Linux knight in shining armor we once sought.

Consider the Lobster and Other Essays (Little, Brown)
David Foster Wallace insists on a conversation where what can be said must be said honestly (along with a sidebar defining honesty), sincerely (ditto defining sincerity), and with full consideration of how media affect honesty and sincerity (ditto media). Given these requirements, we discuss Wallace's new collection of essays with an eye to how he attempts the nearly impossible task of telling the truth.

Los Angeles Kings left wing Simon Gagne will miss Sunday's game against the Edmonton Oilers with a "middle-body injury", the team announced. Gagne did not practice on Friday, although it was thought to be just a maintenance day for the 31-year-old Quebec native. He then sat out Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Pacific Division rival Phoenix Coyotes. Trent Hunter will once again replace Gagne, who has collected three goals, four assists and eight penalty minutes in his first season with the Kings.

Thank you for visiting! I hope to keep this updated with current research in a way that is accessible to all, regardless of their experience with neuroscience. Enjoy, and do let me know if you have specific questions or ideas.
Currently at the University of Washington
I am working as a post-doctoral fellow with Dr. Raphael Bernier and Dr. Sara Jane Webb at the University of Washington, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences. Our project uses a "genetics-first" approach to detect subtypes of children with autism using neuroimaging and behavioral techniques. I am also involved in research projects exploring how brain patterns (e.g., N170 component, EEG frequencies, topographic coherence) emerge and stabilize over development.
Dr. Bernier and I recently recorded some videos where you can learn more about our research. Check them out on the resource page!
The Origin Story
After graduating from the University of Chicago (AB '05) in Human Development, I worked as a milieu (daily life) therapist at a pediatric residential treatment center. Each child struggled with different emotional and/or psychiatric problems, and it was rewarding to help in little and big ways. I wanted to learn more about how the brain works, to see if we could ease those struggles.
I spent 3 years working with Dr. Kevin Pelphrey (currently the Director of the Child Neuroscience Lab at the Yale Child Study Center). We researched the social development of young children with and without autism using fMRI primarily.
My graduate work at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln was guided by Dr. Dennis Molfese (Director of the Developmental Brain Lab & Center for Brain, Biology, & Behavior). Our research used EEG/ERP to test brain activity in newborn babies, infants, toddlers, children, adolescents, and adults. We study a variety of topics (including social cognition, emotion regulation, memory, attention, and sleep) in different populations (including pre-term infants and individuals with traumatic brain injury).
In May 2014, I completed my dissertation on a study of infant social brain development. This project implemented several brain-behavior tools, including ERP, eye-tracking, and computational models.

Late yesterday, the endless runner and RPG hybrid FANTASYxRUNNERS, which is one of our recent favorites here in AppAdvice, got a new update. And, boy, was it quite an update. In its entirety, the game's latest change log entry simply says, "major update." Now that's how you manage to say a lot in so few words.
Being fans of the game, we were naturally intrigued by what this "major update" actually means. Thanks mostly to Jamie and Juli's sleuthing, we discovered that the new version adds three new game characters. But perhaps what really makes this update "major" is the multitude of new Game Center achievements that has been added to the game. Before yesterday, there were only 18 achievements associated with FxR's gameplay. Now, 55 new achievements, most of which are hidden for some reason, have been added to the roster, bringing the total number of achievements that can be unlocked while playing the game to a whopping 73.
Giving so much importance to this component of the game may be a trifle eccentric, but a huge part of what makes FxR such an addictive game is the glory, however small, of reaching these achievements. Be it collecting this number of rubies or killing that number of monsters, an achievement can spur you on to keep playing the game, just as an objective in that other, more popular endless runner keeps you escaping from demon monkeys.
We may never know why moonrabbit, the developer of FANTASYxRUNNERS, didn't bother to outline the changes brought by the update, or even whether the update should really be described as "major," but at least we know for sure that the game has been enhanced for our hacking and slashing pleasure. Designed for both iPhone and iPad, FANTASYxRUNNERS is available in the App Store for only $0.99.

Roger Rosenblatt on Dreams
[Sorry, the video for this story has expired, but you can still read the transcript below. ]
JIM LEHRER: Now, essayist Roger Rosenblatt considers the art of dreaming.
ROGER ROSENBLATT: That is what is said by Dr. Rodolfo Linus, chief of physiology and neuroscience at New York University's School of Medicine. Dr. Linus has been studying brain cells for nearly 40 years, and the conclusion of his study is that the brain dreams. That is what it does.
Dreams Dr. Linus breaks down into three categories: At night sleep dreams are dreams, the pure item. In the daytime, when we are conscious, dreams are daydreams. When we are awake and are focusing on something, dreaming is called thinking. But one way or another the brain is always in the state of mysterious wandering, so mysterious, Dr. Linus believes, that the imitations of reality the brain creates are beyond our comprehension.
In other words, while it is we who dream, we dream beyond ourselves. I guess this news should come as no great surprise when we consider the complex and baffling processes of art. Every painting–be it on a cave or a canvas–is a dream scape–some fluid combination of dreams, daydreams and thinking in which reality is at once acknowledged and imagined. Music is dreaming notated. Music probably comes the closest to the brain's pure dreams because it begins and ends in the air.
Novels, poems, plays emerge from someone's private and idiosyncratic mix of neurons, whence would the stuff of Shakespeare, Dickens, and Yates derive but from heightened states of dreaming. One ponders dreams beyond dreams, for in that sleep of death what dreams may come when we have shuffled off this mortal coil.
The curious counterweight to all this expansive creativity is that we usually claim that dreams are a bad idea. As a kid in school, if you were lost in a daydream, you'd be told to get back to planet Earth, that terrible boring classroom, even though planet Earth was where you least wanted to be.
MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR.: I have a dream today.
ROGER ROSENBLATT: It seems that we live to dream and at the same time are ashamed of dreams, or regard them as a means, rather than an end. Martin Luther King, Jr., could exhort us to have a dream today, but his implication was that the dream would only be of value when transformed into reality.
What Dr. Linus says, in contrast, is that dreaming is our reality; that a place of reverie is where we live. We may not dream up the news, but we dream into the news. Who is Timothy McVeigh? What train of thought or feeling runs between those shuttered eyes? Who is Tiger Woods, Kelly Flinn, Bill Clinton?
They are, themselves, and they are also our dreams of them. We are all Alice. Every event is a beckoning rabbit: A remark, an idea, another person, a room, a house, an entire city becomes a Rorschach test, whose shape is defined by our reactions to it. In short, we are collections of inner-driftings. Of course, Freud said this of us a long time ago, but he was looking to relieve us of the very condition that Dr. Linus says is our natural state.
The human brain is a dreaming machine. Who would doubt it? Be all that we have dreamed: symphonies, wars, hat, baseball, love affairs, government, gardens, theories about the brain, itself; a trillion creations produced by a nomadic organism wobbling around in a package of bone. You sit there tolerating a talking head on a TV screen.
But your brain has better places to go, and so it takes flight and soars around the universe as you remain stock still. So, indeed, does mine. We gaze at each other as occupants of each other's dream, or of someone else's dream. Whose dream is that?
I'm Roger Rosenblatt.

I did boil the butter, sugar, milk mixture for four minutes - mainly because the sugar didn't look like it had melted thoroughly. They haven't set up as quickly as I'd hoped, its been 10 minutes and they are still gooey. I guess I expected them to be like the chocolate/peanut butter no bake cookies. Anyway, my husband reaaly likes them; I'm undecided though, to me they taste like really sweet oatmeal. But then, I do love oatmeal.....

But still an awesome way to break a $20 bill. I think I may try to create my own this summer..or Saturday because I get way excited about stuff too quick.
My new running shoes...sigh. I heart them. I went and got fitted and the guy tried to sell me a $130.00 pair. Now I just cannot justify that money. So I remember how they felt...went to Kohls and found some that felt no joke EXACTLY the same by the same brand...$70. score.
New running tanks :)

Get yourself a melon baller it will make it so much easier to roll but apart from that the kids and hubby loved them
DO NOT use chocolate that had a high cocoa content ie. 70% old gold. It will crumble with addition of the cream. Found this the hard way. Dark Cadbury cooking choc i find works well and is delicious
I melted the chocolate in a double-boiler (just a saucepan inside another saucepan) and my chocolate went grainy. I don't know why. I heated it gently, I didn't get water in it...?? The recipe should contain some basic instructions as to what to do and what not to do when melting chocolate.
Whilst the recipe doesn't say it....a melon baller is an essential piece of equipment when making truffles. Let the mixture set overnight in the fridge, dip melon baller in hot water then into mixture. You will get even size balls and reduce plenty of wastage and mess. Just make sure the container you put the mixture in to set is deep enough to scoop the melon baller through. This is a good basic recipe to which you can add many other flavours including savoury ones like chilli's, bay leaves etc.
What a disaster. When attempting to "roll" the mix into balls, the temperature of my hands just melted the whole thing. I couldn't make balls at all. They ended up as nuggets and associated sloppy mess. Tastes great but it was a misery to shape. Ended up remelting the leftovers, throwing in some nuts and chilling that to be cut into pieces as there was no way I was going to persevere with rolling.
Yummy recipe, but I found after rolling into balls and coating in cocoa... the truffles became very soft and didn't harden up properly again.
they were yummy, but it took heaps long for the refrigerating and everything.
FANTASTIC!!! I made the basic and made another two batches with strawberry liquor and coffee. The strawbeery liquor was the favourite by far. Easy as pie. A few trips, freeze your scooped mixture for atleast 20min (with toothpicks in) before dipping in chocolate- it just makes it so much easier. And i pulled out the toothpicks after being refridgerated and the chocolate was set. Then i just filled the small holes. DO NOT FREEZE AFTER CHOCOLATE IS ON it brings in white-lightbrown streeks into it. Oh and dip your baller into icing sugar when shaping the truffles or even just put some on your hand- solves the problem. Enjoy :)
Great Recipe... Loved by all! Thanks for the great recipe and i will surely be making them again!
I made these as a present along with coffee truffles that are also featured here and the birthday girl loved them, as did everybody else that had one. I had no problem rolling them, I think the main issue was the the cocoa powder didn't really make the shape solid. I had some requests to make just normal truffles with a chocolate sprinkle coating, like the coffee ones. But altogether fantastic recipe, really really simple and you just need a fridge and microwave!
I made these last christmas and had people at my work going crazy over them! And I have had people checking with me to see if i will be making them this year! I dipped them in chocolate instead of cocoa though. I would suggest using a melon baller to make the round balls because they are a little hard to roll
I found the mixture very hard to roll into balls - very slippery and difficult, even after refrigerating for 4 hours... A bit rich, would be nicer if I had have used milk chocolate.
i got these out of sfi last year for christmas - but i made them for easter - easy and yum!

Colden Lakes is an "OK" campground. The sites are very plain and have water, electric, and sewer. There is not much else beyond that as for amenities at the sites. The section that we were in had the sites on top of each other with about a 10 foot strip of grass between the sites. The premium sites that actually faced water were already taken up by the full timers. Many of those sites actually had wood decks built and sheds. The different sections have security gates for vehicles. In order to access your area, you need to have an electronic access card. You are required to pay a $20 deposit for the access card. The $20 is refunded when you turn in the card, providing there is someone there to take the card. We had to give it to the maintenance guy who gave us $20 out of his pocket so we could get on the road. The road to the campground is absolutely horrible. There are extremely steep hills to climb and descend. The roads are also in horrible condition deteriorating with numerous pot holes. - Armyret99

This large campground has undergone some major improvements over the past couple of years. Although this park tends to cater more toward seasonals, there is a newer section to accommodate weekenders. However, the weekend sites tend to be very close together, so privacy at the sites is minimal. Also, the sites could use a little more grooming. We also noticed that many of the sites in the newer section are now also being rented out to more permanent, seasonal residents. This is reducing the amount of sites available to weekenders and travelers. The on-premises restaurant serves excellent food and offers live music on weekends. Swimming pool is great. Not much stock at the camp store. However, there is a large town (East Aurora) only about four miles away where you can get anything you might need. Overall, this is a nice campground. The reason that I gave it an (8) is because I felt the price is a little high for size of the sites. Nonetheless, we would stay there again. - mtrumpet

This is a decent park to stay in if in the Buffalo area. The surrounding area is very hilly, and I mean STEEP hills. If you are going to stay at Colden Lakes, be sure to come in FROM the east, not from the west off 219. The grades from the west are a challenge in a car, much less an RV. Other than the terrain, the park is pretty nice. The manager was very helpful. Most of their tenants are seasonal but there is a new area with FHU and pull-through sites that works for those of us just passing through. The grass hasn't established yet on those spaces though, so much of your yard will be straw. You will be out in the boonies (which we liked). This park has it's own restaurant/bar, which is good, because it's a long way to anything else. The food is excellent and the prices very reasonable. It was a wonderful convenience. There is no cable TV; we were able to pick up CBS and ABC off air. No Wi-Fi, but our Verizon aircard and our Verizon cell phones worked fine. If in this area again, we'd definitely come back. - Gypsy Turtles

Sicilian Caponata
|3 Pound (2 Large, 1 1/2 Pounds Each, Firm, Slender, They Should Feel Heavy For Their Size)
|Olive oil
|1 Tablespoon
|4 Ounce, cut lengthwise into 1/4 inch wide slivers (3 Medium Size)
|Diced celery
|2 Cup (32 tbs) (1/4 Inch, Preferably Heart / Tender Inner Stalks)
|1 Large, minced / crushed through a press
|Whole tomatoes
|28 Ounce (1 Can)
|Red wine vinegar
|1⁄3 Cup (5.33 tbs)
|2 Tablespoon
|Dried basil
|1 Teaspoon, crumbled
|Dried oregano
|1 Teaspoon, crumbled
|Black pepper
|1⁄4 Teaspoon
|Sliced pimiento stuffed green olives
|1⁄2 Cup (8 tbs)
|Pitted black olives
|1⁄2 Cup (8 tbs), sliced
|To Taste
1. Preheat the broiler. Prick the eggplants all over with a long fork. Place on a double layer of aluminum foil. Broil until charred on one side and soft within, 10 to 12 minutes. Turn and broil for 10 to 12 minutes longer until charred and the eggplant is soft throughout. Remove, drain off all liquid and let stand on the foil until cool enough to handle. Preheat the oven to 350°. Carefully peel off just the skin; coarsely chop the eggplants.
2. Spoon the olive oil into a nonreactive large skillet and place over moderate heat. Add the onions and celery; saute, stirring frequently, until softened and lightly colored (adding 1 or 2 table spoons of water whenever the vegetables seem dry), about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute longer. Drain the tomatoes in a strainer over a bowl; cut them in quarters. Add the tomato pieces and 1/2 cup of the juice to the pan. Stir in the vinegar, sugar, basil, oregano and pepper. Bring to a boil and cook over moderately high heat for 5 minutes to evaporate some of the liquid. Add the chopped eggplant and toss.
3. Turn the caponata into a large bakingdish. Bake, uncovered, for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and stir in the green and black olives and salt to taste.Let cool to room temperature; cover and chill. Serve cold, cool or at room temperature.

These were delicious! They are definitely a make again. I served them with chicken Marbella and they were the perfect accompaniment. Although they do take a little work, they are well worth the effort. I made them all but the cooking early in the day, refrigerated them, and then baked them just before serving. The no work at the last minute aspect of them makes them even better!.
OMG Yum! I have been making biscuits by hand for years and do pretty well (so I'm told). and I have used the frozen, grated butter technique before for scones. I had not done the folding technique for biscuits before, but the cheese was sooooo well incorporated and they were soooo flaky i may have to do it more often. Mine reheated beautifully - from the toaster oven(just ate the last 3 from T-day) and I'm still saying 'mmmmmm". Can't wait to make them again! I may have changed up the herbs and exchanged some parm for kick.
These were a huge hit at my house this year. Considering I do not have a food processor, the only annoying part was grating the butter, but other than that these were extremely easy and very good! I did however add some more herbs because I didn't think the recipe called for enough so I added some minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme to the mix. Right before baked I brushed some olive oil on top and sprinkled them with course salt and garlic powder. YUM!
These were a hit at Thanksgiving & different from the usual breads/rolls we serve traditionally; we toasted them lightly this morning with breakfast; aren't too difficult to make as I used the food processor with large shredded to grate the butter & mix the dough. YUM.
I really didn't think these were that much work. I put the dry ingredients in my kitchen aid and then grated the butter right in the bowl. I thought the grated frozen butter was a great way to make it blend seamlessly into the flour mixture. Poured the buttermilk right into the bowl as it was mixing and the dough turned out great. The only thing that I thought was a little deceiving was that they are biscuits more than anything (although I should have known from the butter and cheese amounts). I wanted more of a cheesy bread bite than a cheesy biscuit.
Hot out of the oven these were good. After that they were okay and didn't reheat very well. I'm not sure it was worth the effort, but my mom made them...so I didn't actually put forth any effort...
While these taste good, they are WAY too much work. I will never grate frozen butter again - surely the food processor could have been used. And with all due respect to previous reviewer, if I hadn't added quite a bit of flour (yes, I know how to measure), I would have just had a gooey mess on the countertop. Mine also did not rise much, so also didn't look like the picture. We'll see how the half I froze do on Thanksgiving.
These came out much as I would have anticipated. Peter Reinhart is an excellent and reliable source for baking formulas and these do not disappoint. It is worth saying that to those of you have have had trouble with this recipe that it may simply be due to using too much flour. Bread baking is a precise art and even something as seemingly straight forward as measurement by volume is somewhat misleading. This is not the fault of the recipe. Most bakers measure by weight and this is a recipe being published for a non bread baking audience. Generally speaking, it is so remarkably easy to use too much flour when portioning with solely a measuring cup it is shocking. If you find over dryness or stiffness or heaviness to be an issue, it is most likely due to the fact that there was just too much flour used. Spoon your flour into your measuring cup, and if you have a scale try not to exceed 4 oz. per cup. Lastly, do not be afraid of moist sticky dough, because well hydrated dough often produces some of the most pleasing of results. Again returning to the recipe, this is a nice laminated dough with a great texture and pleasing taste. But what else would you expect from a dough loaded with cheese and herbs?
Made these yesterday and they came out really well - they actually looked like the picture. As for how they taste cold, well, they didn't last long enough for me to find out. To the previous reviewer whose poppers did not look like the photo, perhaps you did use too much flour. I used flour sparingly while folding the dough and there was no flour apparent before I placed them into the oven.
Tasty when I pulled from the oven, but dry and boring when they cooled (and reheated). I assumed from the picture that the poppers would have a more buttery texture. I had the same result as the Cook from Arlington Heights - dry, floury tops with little shine. Maybe too much flour at finish, maybe butter didn't distribute well, maybe the cheese wasn't fresh enough. Thoughts anyone?

Florida State got to see the Virginia Tech it expected on Thursday night at Lane Stadium. When the eighth-ranked Seminoles were forced to validate their lofty ranking, and keep their Atlantic Coast Conference title plans intact, E.J. Manuel and the offense were more than equal to the task. Manuel hit Rashad Greene with a short slant pass that Greene took 39 yards for a touchdown with 40 seconds to play, and the Seminoles survived a scare to beat the inspired Hokies 28-22. ''Nobody was flustered, nobody was afraid,'' Manuel said about the drive that came after a safety and a field goal had given Virginia Tech a 22-20 lead with just more than 2 minutes to play. ''We all knew what we needed to do. We feel like we're built for things like that, and it showed tonight.'' The Seminoles (9-1, 6-1 ACC) won their fourth straight and moved within a victory against Maryland on Nov. 17 of securing a spot in the ACC championship game Dec. 1. And they did it in dramatic fashion, with a 68-yard...

Stuart Enthusiastic for Fasig-Tipton Saratoga
John Stuart has been a consignor at Fasig-Tipton's Saratoga sale since 1982, and got his start at the upstate New York auction even earlier when he began showing yearlings in 1965. This season, Stuart's Bluegrass Thoroughbred Services has five colts and six fillies—headed by a half sister to multiple graded stakes winner Optimizer—for the Aug. 5-6 event.
Runners purchased from Stuart at the Saratoga sale have gone on to great success over the years, including 2009 graduate Blue Bunting, a $200,000 purchase who won the QIPCO One Thousand Guineas (Eng-I), Darley Irish Oaks (Ire-I), and the Darley Yorkshire Oaks (Eng-I) in 2011.
"I'm a Virginian and it used to be this sale had a lot of horses from the East Coast in it," Stuart said. "I started out showing here back in '65 and I just love Saratoga. I want to see this sale survive and I actually brought a few more this year, I think we're the second-largest group in the sale. They need it, and if a horse is early and well-bred, then I'm perfectly comfortable bringing them here. I know less buyers are going to see them than they would at the September sale, but there are also less horses here to compete with."
Stuart said the half to Optimizer, a Dynaformer filly who will go as hip no. 69, is the standout of this year's bunch. A March 10 foal bred in Kentucky by Brad Kelley's Bluegrass Hall out of the A.P. Indy mare Indy Pick, she was graded a "7" on the Fasig-Tipton scale.
"A perfect horse is a 7; a 6+, you've usually got one or two of those in a sale; if they're a 6 they make it to Saratoga; a 5+ is a select yearling with maybe a few minor issues, and a 5 is just a horse," the consignor explained. "I've been doing this since 1982, and this is the first 7 I ever had. So physically, she's pretty special."
This filly comes from the family of the old Phipps mare Blitey, whose offspring include three grade I winners—Dancing Spree, Fantastic Find, and Furlough—along with grade II winner Dancing All Night.
Although Indy Pick herself did not achieve graded status, the daughter of Fantastic Find did produce Optimizer, by English Channel , her fourth and most successful foal. The hearty D. Wayne Lukas trainee has run up earnings of $915,037 and survived the rigors of the Triple Crown trail before switching to his preferred surface of the turf, where he has achieved multiple grade III wins and grade I-placings behind Horse of the Year Wise Dan and multiple grade I winner Point of Entry .
"She is a beautifully bred filly," Stuart said. "If you can afford it and you want to try to gather up the best-bred, best-looking yearling fillies you can get your hands on, this is one of the few that will be offered this year."
Stuart also pointed out hip no. 111, a Tiznow colt out of the Cherokee Run mare Running Clan, as a "very nice" individual. His dam is a half sister to grade I-winning millionaire Pure Clan.
"What I like about him is, he looks like a Tiznow," Stuart said of the March 27 foal, bred in Kentucky by Lakland Farm. "He's big, strong, and flashy. I think he's pretty special."
Others in the Bluegrass Thoroughbred consignment are hip no. 2 (Smart Strike —Wild Intention), hip no. 10 (Speightstown —Appleby Gardens), hip no. 30 (Tale of the Cat —Chemise), hip no. 48 (Curlin —Evening Star), hip no. 68 (Giant's Causeway —Indy Business), hip no. 86 (Medaglia d'Oro —Lost Gold), hip no. 91 (Harlan's Holiday—Merrill Gold), hip no. 100 (Elusive Quality —Padmore), and hip no. 146 (Quality Road —Turbulent Air).
Last year at Saratoga select, Stuart sold five yearlings topped by a $300,000 Tiznow—Myrtle Beach colt.
"It all just depends on the horses from year-to-year," Stuart said when asked how he views the complexion of this year's sale. "The market is in good shape; they need to buy horses and they're buying horses. I fully expect every one of these yearlings I've brought are going to be good profits for whoever bred them, because they're really nice horses. Whether the sale numbers go up or not, I don't know, it all depends on what they've got in there, and you've got to get out and see them.
