ATLANTA (September 15, 2011) — Highlighting the top companies that are paving the way for new moms and families everywhere, today Working Mother magazine announced Children's Healthcare of Atlanta as a 2011 Working Mother 100 Best Company. Children's was named to the list due to a variety of positive program offerings, such as flextime hours, telecommuting, paid maternity leave and employee assistance programs. The magazine specifically mentioned Children's many female executives across all three hospital locations, our successful employee health and fitness programs, and our array of childcare offerings.
Children's is recognized alongside only two other organizations in Georgia on the list and appears as one of only two pediatric hospitals in the country to earn this honor. Children's is privileged to be named along with national industry leaders like Dell, Verizon Communications and Turner Broadcasting Systems.
"We work hard to be attentive to the needs of all of our employees, and support the variety of personal and professional goals they have," said Linda Matzigkeit, SVP Strategic Planning and Human Resources. "We provide programs and benefits that allow employees to strive for health and wellness and work/life success, which inevitably enable them to provide excellent care for our pediatric patient population."
Children's Commitment to Women At-A-Glance:
The Working Mother 100 Best Companies are judged on answers to 650 questions, including data on the access and usage of flexible work arrangements, parental leave, childcare, health and wellness support and the advancement of women to all levels of management.
"With more than 169,000 women hired last year, this year's 100 Best Companies make up an impressive group of winners who offer family-driven programs and benefits that far outpace their competitors," said Carol Evans, President, Working Mother Media. "This year's winning companies are proof that success lies in the numbers—97 percent of companies are offering prenatal education, weight-loss, wellness, and stress-reduction programs to employees at every level."
Companies were selected for the 2011 Working Mother 100 Best Companies based on an extensive application with more than 650 questions that surveys the usage, availability and tracking of programs, as well as the accountability of managers who oversee them. Seven areas were measured and scored for the 2011 initiative: workforce profile, benefits, women's issues and advancement, child care, flexible work, parental leave and company culture. For this year's 100 Best, particular weight was given to benefits, flexibility and parental leave.

Hello Gents,
Many of you know me, and most know that I don't really try to tell anyone what they should think or what is best. But today, I am going to make an exception.
I started out in this building hobby back in the 80's, rehabilitating and even bubba'ing old rifles. I cut my teeth on SMLEs, I grew legs with Mausers, and I do not even want to admit what I have done to M-1 Carbines.
I got the AK bug early, somewhere around 1987. Back in those days, nobody knew what to do with kits, and the Internet as we know it was a playground for true geeks (like me and JRS). I built my first AK in 1993, and it was SCARY! Machined plates, welded together, and everything cut, ground, and hand fit. My brother still has it. He shoots it once or twice a month.
I can not truly count how many rifles I have built. It is a large number. For me, it was a labor of love, and a way to work through some of my demons. I think I am a better person today due to these experiences.
So, fast forward to today. I had a real brain-fart listening to Joe Biden taking about and urging women to buy a shotgun... Here is the brain-fart: Why are AR-15 rifles so reviled by the demotards? Because they work. Because they are so effective. Because they are so easy to use. Because they make even a little girl just as effective and deadly as a 6'2" fully trained Ranger or Marine.
I am going to continue this thread tomorrow when I am fresh, I welcome your thoughts and posts.

What Is an Estuary?
Estuaries and their surrounding wetlands are bodies of water usually found where rivers meet the sea. Estuaries are home to unique plant and animal communities that have adapted to brackish water—a mixture of fresh water draining from the land and salty seawater. Learn More.
The National Estuarine Research Reserve System is a network of 28 coastal sites designated to protect and study estuarine systems. Established through the Coastal Zone Management Act, the reserves represent a partnership program between NOAA and the coastal states. NOAA provides funding and national guidance, and each site is managed on a daily basis by a lead state agency or university with input from local partners. Learn More.

I'm building a program that does 2D graphing, and was wondering: How can I determine the default zoom level and x/y extents to display on screen, in such a way as to maximise the 'interesting' parts of a function that are shown?
"Interesting parts" would include:
- Minimums/maximums/plateaus,
- Parts of the space where you can actually see the function,
- Roots,
- Discontinuities,
- and anything else that helps understand what the function looks like and what it does.
I am not necessarily looking for a perfect solution, just something that works well for most common cases, hopefully without having to solve the equation the user entered.
Is there a general method I can use? Or a book/reference that might help? Thanks!

Economic and demographic disparities will shape the mobility of labor and skills during the 21st century. The populations of richer societies are aging rapidly, while working-age populations continue to grow in some emerging economies and most low-income countries. Despite these trends, many countries continue to assume that today's demographic realities will persist. This policy brief describes how the current geography of migration is changing, and offers recommendations for policymakers.
This issue brief analyzes the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, which provides a two-year reprieve from deportation for eligible unauthorized immigrants who came to the United States as children. The study finds that 49 percent of the eligible population had applied during the program's first year, and reveals wide variation in application rates across states and national-origin groups.
This fact sheet offers a detailed review of the comprehensive immigration reform legislation approved by the U.S. Senate in June 2013 and compares its major provisions with those of the five targeted immigration bills approved by the House Judiciary Committee and the House Homeland Security Committee.
This fact sheet compares key components of immigration reform outlined in the 2013 Senate immigration bill against provisions included in bills considered by the Senate in 2006 and 2007: border security, detention, and enforcement; worksite enforcement; visa reforms; earned legalization of unauthorized immigrants; strengthening the U.S. economy and workforce; and integration of new Americans.
MPI has completed an analysis of the major provisions in the 2013 framework, comparing them to provisions of the legislation the Senate considered in 2006 and 2007.
The integration of mobile EU citizens as a specific target group has not been widely discussed, either at EU or national levels, and EU-level integration policies focus on the integration of legally residing third-country nationals. This report investigates the broad range of integration needs that exist in Europe.
This report discusses the political debate surrounding national identity in the Netherlands against the backdrop of growing public anxiety about immigrants and their effect on local communities. While policies designed to mitigate these fears largely stress national identity and demand cultural assimilation, the report provides an alternative set of recommendations based on the notion of plural identification.

The look on Ash's face when Gary said "...by the way... I fucked Misty.": Priceless
I prefer a different version~
Now this is the story all about how
Your life got flipped, turned upside down
And I'd like to take a minute, sit, and be merry.
I'll tell you how I became the motherfucking Gary.
In west of Pallet town, born and raised
On the grass plains where I spent most of my days
Chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool
And all catchin' some Pokemon outside of the school
When a couple of trainers, who were up to no good
Started making trouble in my neighborhood
I got in one little fight and I fucked up their shit,
And said "Bitch, I'm Gary Motherfucking Oak, the next big hit!"
I whistled for my Mercedes and it was shining black, the
License plate said "Bitches" and had a few in the back
If anything I could say that this car was pimpin'
But I thought now forget it, I'm fuckin' these Bitches'
I pulled up to my house about seven or eight
And I yelled to the bitches yo, ho's fuck ya later
Looked at my kingdom I was finally there
To settle my throne as the prince of EVERYWHERE. Mother Fucker.

|Lim hits NCAA qualifying marks
SAN ANTONIO, Texas - The University of Idaho swimming and diving team finished eighth at the Western Athletic Conference Championships but along the way were records and NCAA B cut qualifying times as the freshmen-laden team tallied 213 points.
Freshman Shana Lim excelled in her specialty - the backstroke, with a WAC, meet, pool and school record in the 100-meter event. She clocked a 55.00 - an NCAA B cut qualifying time and just .45 off the A cut mark. At the time of the race, she was 16th in the nation. She notched a second individual B cut time in the 200 back with a 1:58.64 - more than two seconds faster than her Idaho record of 2:01.89 set earlier this season.
Lim also swam a leg of all three B cut qualifying - and school record-setting, relays. She swam the leadoff leg of the 200 medley relay with Kelsie Saxe, Calleagh Brown and Si Jia Pang completing the race in 1:42.55. She was the third leg of the 200 free team after seniors Staci Stratton and Alyson O'Brien led off and Pang anchored the fourth-place time of 1:32.63. Stratton led off the 400 free relay with Lim, freshman Megan Venlos and O'Brien finishing out the school record time of 3:24.08.
Stratton reclaimed her school-record in the 50 free with a 23.53 - 10th at the championships, while freshman Lyndsay Williams set the school 400 IM record with her 4:25.88 (10th at the meet).
Sophomore Paige Hunt, competing in platform diving for the first time this season, was sixth with a 192.60.

Catholic Charities is helping mark the 25th anniversary of the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act, the first major federal legislation to address homelessness, with the expansion of the Catholic Charities HomeBase program.
The McKinney-Vento Act, landmark legislation when it was first enacted in July 1987, helps homeless men, women and children break the cycle of homelessness and poverty. At HomeBase, a city-wide program prompted by the Act, families and individuals receive key support to prevent them from drifting into homelessness and to develop plans for long-term housing stability.
Support for Catholic Charities HomeBase comes in part from the McKinney-Vento Act and its Emergency Solutions Grant for homeless-prevention services to families without children and single adults. The bulk of funding comes from the Emergency Assistance to Families (EAF) program to supports assistance to families with children.
Eligible Services for Families with Children:
• Case management
• Emergency Financial Assistance
• Job Training
• Financial education
• Mediation
• Budgeting
Eligible Services for families without children and single adults
• Housing relocation and stabilization services
• Rental Assistance
Please watch and listen to how Catholic Charities feeds the hungry and shelters the homeless and learn how you can help.

Earlier date to pick nominee would be welcome
Published: Wednesday, August 28, 2013 at 12:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, August 27, 2013 at 2:32 p.m.
The manner in which Democrats and Republicans choose their presidential nominees needs an overhaul, but key players are unwilling to make changes that would improve the system. No one wants a return to backroom dealing that would lead to a candidate being crowned at party conventions. But the system of caucuses and primaries in place now has some flaws that need addressing.
North Carolina wants to play a greater role in the process, which is understandable. Often, the state's primary, which occurs in May, comes after a candidate has already emerged, making voters' preferences meaningless. An exception occurred in 2008 during the Democratic battle between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. Even Davidson County, a Republican stronghold, received attention that year, including from former President Bill Clinton and his daughter, Chelsea. Republican leaders would like to move the primary to the Tuesday after South Carolina's primary, as long as that occurs before March 15.
Needless to say, those states that now play an inordinately important role with their early dates, such as Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina, cry foul whenever a state dares to consider an earlier slot. The parties themselves threaten sanctions against those states, too, and can reduce their number of delegates at the national conventions. Yet the reasons to let those states play such an outsized role often have more to do with tradition than any legitimate factor.
The problem with the present system is that a candidate who might do well in the South or other areas can find him or herself derailed if they don't do well in Iowa and New Hampshire. Sometimes a candidate can overcome a shaky start, but in the 24/7 world of cable news channels and talk radio, a candidacy may be declared dead before it even truly starts. Candidates also tailor their messages to the constituencies in those early states, and their positions on other important issues may be placed on the back burner.
The entire process would be better if it didn't start so early. Jockeying for the next election begins almost as soon as one election ends. Yet it does take a few months for candidates to travel to different locations to make their pitch. Cost remains a legitimate concern, but a candidate should have to demonstrate a broad appeal to obtain his party's nod.
North Carolina leaders rightly claim the nation's 10th most populous state deserves a voice in choosing the Democratic and Republican nominees. Both parties could have intriguing primaries in 2016, so state voters want to help choose the nominee. But South Carolina and other early voting states won't stand idly by and let the state gain more influence. Republicans in control of the legislature and governor's office will need to stand firm and hope their arguments will carry the day and avoid any penalty from the parties.

Let me begin by stating that, Yes, I probably shouldn't have bought this bike.
Always wanted to restore an old Harley, so last summer I purchased a relatively complete 1942 Flathead. The history behind that bike that was explained to me was this guy's father purchased the bike back in the mid 1970's off a guy who was racing it. The dad owned it up until his death, and then it became the son's. Throughout the years they had been working to restore it for the dad and then stopped after he passed away.
The guy was basically selling it to recoup some of his investment and had no desire to own or finish the bike. The bike came with a clean Title that showed where it was transferred from the Dad to him. He mentioned that the engine had been rebuilt about 3 or 4 years ago and the only thing that was left to do was put together the transmission and do a final assembly. Everything sounds good so far right. Well this is where I ran into the problem. My title is a 42WL30xxx. The numbers on the left case of the engine (which was rebuilt) isn't even a Harley VIN number (Yes, I shouldn't have purchase it). It looks like someone may had used one of the blank cases and stamped it ( 120 4XX ). It looks similar to the numbers that are cast into the cylinder heads.
Ok, so I have this 1942 Flathead with a 1942 Title but no case to match. From my research it sounds like there were something like 146 42WLs produced? What do you think the chances are that case is still out there? Does anyone collect these things?
I have two guesses as to what happened to the left case. Either the guy racing the bike back in the 70's discarded it (or the engine while racing), or the case was replaced by the shop a few years back when they were trying to restore it (I'm trying to contact the shop). So this thing could be anywhere, or lost forever.
Is there a source for old flathead cases? Do people hold on to these things? Should I try an impossible search to find the original case and try and buy it? Or should I just find another engine (or case) with a clear title?
I know this is a lot to take in, but any ideas as to where I should start?

Two brave women — Margaret Sullivan, who works as Public Editor from inside The New York Times and Dr. Maryann Cusimano Love, who, as Catholic University Associate professor of International Relations takes on issues like morality, technology and NSA surveillance — confront head on these dicey topics and more with Msgr. Kevin Sullivan on this week's JustLove radio show.
Their skill at combining clear thinking with straight talk puts listeners in the sometimes uncomfortable position of thinking twice about topics that, until now, they may have avoided thinking about at all.
"We tend to think of the poor as something over there in a silo," says Ms. Sullivan, a Jesuit-educated graduate of Georgetown University. "But it's really not a discreet population that we can draw a discreet circle around and say 'you are the other.' The other is us."
The issue of poverty, the public and how to accurately present news challenges media outlets as they draw on rapidly evolving online opportunities.
And it challenges the government as laws that protect our privacy struggle to keep up with the digital age.
This struggle sparked particular outrage when the public recently found out about the NSA's electronic surveillance program that has peaked into millions of U.S. citizens' phone and internet accounts as part of its war on terror.
"What's lost in this debate is that the government is asking private industry for this information," Dr. Cusimano Love says. "People may not understand that this information is already being gathered by the private sector. The main question is whether the government should peek at it."
Listen as they take on these topics on JustLove on SIRIUS XM Satellite Radio. JustLove airs weekly on Saturday at 10am EST on The Catholic Channel 129.

Rated 4.9 out of 5 by 7 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Abra Don't light my fire Great candles for those of us that don't want to babysit "real" candles with a flame. Nice glow. Shows up nicely in a glass candle holder and NO waxie mess. Wonderful addition to your outside decor as well. January 11, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by lbuharvey LOVE these! I bought about ten sets of these. They are very realistic and blow the ones with the bulbs out of the water, easily. I am unsure about the battery replacement. They seem to have a decent life span if you only use them for five or six hours in the evening. I did accidentally leave a set on for more than 24 hours. That pair is now dim but still work. I don't know how much life they have left, though. I would recommend these to anyone. They have a nice glow inside a votive or just on their own. Buy extra because you will want more. :) December 9, 2014

Rated 5 out of 5 by Jayne Love these flameless tealights. I love these tealights. I have about 40 of them. I use them everywhere. I do wish they had a timer. The batteries last a long time and are inexpensive. I highly recommend them. July 13, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by ccny Perfect Flameless I use these tealights on my altar. The warm glow and flickering effect are life-like. May 11, 2013

Tom Zé is one of the most influential Brazilian artists of the century with a very innovative and experimental style combining Brazilian folk music with samba and even American rock. In celebration of Tom having been their inaugural artist to the Luaka Bop label, they are releasing a box set, Studies of Tom Zé: Explaining Things So I Can Confuse You, which will be available October 5th.
Tom Zé got a lucky break thanks to Luaka Bop's founder, David Byrne: "In the mid 1980′s David Byrne pulled a Tom Zé album out of the samba section of a Rio de Janeiro record store. This purchase started a 25-year-long chain of events that has resulted in this box set… Studies of Tom Zé: Explaining Things So I Can Confuse You collects for the first time Tom Zé's 'study' records- the visionary Brazilian artist's singular take on samba, pagode, and bossa nova. A retrospective nearly fifty years in the making."
The box set includes 4 vinyl records, a bonus CD, an essay about Tom Zé by Brazilian scholar Christopher Dunn, as well as a key to receive all vinyl content as a digital download.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Cobaltchrysalis very pretty bowl with nice details Very pretty piece and goes nicely in my home. I also have the little stone buddha and elephant made from the same stone and they all look very beautiful together. All of my pieces were wrapped very carefully when they were shipped so everything arrived intact. I have not put incense or a candle in it, I use it to place my rings or little flower petals inside. I like it very much. April 10, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by Aasha beautiful piece it's a very beutiful piece and useful. I would recommand it if you use incense sticks around house August 7, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by mydesiree Pretty but very fragile Received this item with two of the petals broken and only one of the two petals was in the box. Was able to glue the one back on so it looks presentable. It is much more fragile than I thought it would be, as if it's made out of sand but it is pretty. Even with two broken petals, I'm glad I have it. It makes my deck coffee table look nice. July 27, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Morgan18 Love!! I've had this incense holder for a LONG time now, and I love it, it's not too heavy, and it keeps incense sticks upright. HOWEVER as much as I love it... YOU SHOULD NOT USE INCENSE CONES ON HERE!!! I did and it left a burnt hole in it :( and be careful, I believe it breaks easily, I have a few chips on the flowers. If you want to burn cones, use something else. also, when the incense sticks burn down, there's still a small little area where what's left of the incense is in the small hole, I use tweezers to get it out and put in the next stick :) May 22, 2013

The award recognizes Koverola's commitment to mentoring women in Higher Education.
Catherine Koverola, Dean of the Graduate School of Arts and Social Sciences at Lesley University was recently awarded the 2014 Massachusetts American Council on Education Women's Network Leadership Award for her mentorship of women in higher education. The award "recognizes women at any stage of their career who exhibit leadership in mentoring, promoting, and encouraging women in the field of higher education in Massachusetts."
"The Massachusetts ACE Women's Network is a part of a national organization of ACE state-coordinated groups dedicated to the IDEALS to identify, develop, encourage, advance, link and support women in higher education. The annual Leadership Award recognizes women leaders in higher education who embody the IDEALS and have impacted others," says Lisa Ijiri, Associate Provost for Academic and Resource Planning at Lesley, and 2014-2015 Co-Chair of the Massachusetts Women's Network executive board.
The network sponsors several events each year, which Koverola regularly attends, bringing female colleagues with her as an opportunity for them to connect with other faculty and administrators in the region. Dean Koverola's first encounter with an ACE women's network was in 2008, when she attended a New England Conference. At the time she was living in Alaska, where she worked for five years. The experience stands out for Koverola as a defining moment in her career; she considers her continued involvement with the network to be the pathway to her career as a Higher Ed administrator.
"This award means a great deal to me because it recognizes the value of women mentoring other women, which is something I feel is extremely important and very much needed in higher education," Koverola says. "It makes me think of all of the times I was mentored, and given a hand throughout my own career. There were women in my life who believed in me, and weren't threatened by my strength or vision." It also highlights for Koverola the need for continued mentorship for women in professional settings.
"As much as it makes me reflect on my own incredible mentors, it reminds of those times when I wasn't supported. I know how that feels, too.
Koverola has brought her mentorship philosophy to the Graduate School of Arts and Social Sciences at Lesley, where she has established a program through which new faculty hires are paired with experienced Lesley faculty members. The program is also for those faculty who are new to administrative roles within the University.
"Since my arrival on campus as a new faculty member last summer, it has been clear to me that Dr. Koverola is committed to the advancement of women," says Raquel Stephenson, Assistant Professor of Expressive Therapies and participant in Koverola's mentorship program. "Not only does the depth of her interest in my ideas move me, but also her commitment to helping me advance my vision is remarkable."
"My approach to mentorship has always been about 'being' rather than 'doing,'" Koverola says. "It's being with that person through whatever state they're in -- worry and ambivalence, or joy and success. It's the way I've approached being a mentor, a clinician, and a parent." It is this human-to-human connection that has touched many of Koverola's colleagues.
"Many deans are perceived as 'administration' or 'the other,' yet Catherine makes systematic efforts to break down such stereotypes," remarks Lisa Fiore, Dean of Faculty at Lesley. "I seek her personal advice with respect to my own wellbeing, but especially regarding the parenting of my own two children. As the proud mother of an intelligent, curious, and strong young woman, Catherine shares her own stories of success and stumbles, which I consider to be powerful reminders of our humanity and connectedness."
Catherine continues to make connections with women across the field of Higher Education.
"So often women are made to feel that their authentic selves aren't okay. I want women to know that you can be yourself and be a great administrator or faculty member. You don't have to give up who you are."
Ultimately, for Koverola mentorship is about creating pathways and opportunities for others to become exceptional leaders.
"It's exhilarating to see people I care about go on to do incredible things in their careers."

Everyday Health: What are the primary symptoms of RLS?
Robert Doekel Jr., MD: RLS is characterized by an urge to move the legs, usually accompanied by or caused by uncomfortable and unpleasant sensations in the legs, which begin or worsen during periods of rest or inactivity such as when you're lying down or sitting.
The urge to move the legs and the accompanying unpleasant sensations are partially or totally relieved by movement, such as walking and stretching, at least as long as the activity continues. The symptoms are worse in the evening and at night than during the day, or may only occur in the evening or at night.
In addition, the symptoms are not solely accounted for by another condition, such as leg cramps, positional discomfort, leg swelling, or arthritis.
Helene Emsellem, MD, FAASM: Creepy-crawly feelings in the legs associated with the urge to move. The arms can also be affected in some people.
Markus Schmidt, MD, PhD, and Asim Roy, MD: RLS is characterized by an irresistible urge to move the legs in the evening or prior to falling asleep and is sometimes associated with a creepy or crawly sensation or aching in the legs. Symptoms are typically relieved by movement, are worse during rest, and are typically worse in the evening hours.
David B. Rye, MD, PhD: Primary symptoms are well described - I can't add much to what's been written. There's a compulsion to move the legs, it's sort of like an itch.
Is RLS Inherited?
Robert Doekel Jr., MD: RLS often runs in families.
Helene Emsellem, MD, FAASM: Some individuals have a positive family history of RLS. Sometimes the onset can be in childhood or adolescence.
Markus Schmidt, MD, PhD, and Asim Roy, MD: RLS affects about 10 percent of the U.S. population. It tends to run in families, with as many as 50 percent of cases being accounted for by genetically inherited RLS. Other causes include iron deficiency, kidney disease, pregnancy, and contributing medications, such as tricyclic antidepressants, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), antihistamines, decongestants, and antinausea meds.
David B. Rye, MD, PhD: There's a large hereditary component in an (unfortunately) nonpredictable pattern. Risk alleles in genes have been identified and have a large influence on the expression of symptoms.
Does RLS Ever Go Away On Its Own?
Robert Doekel Jr., MD: Up to 25 percent of women develop RLS during pregnancy, but the symptoms often disappear after they give birth.
Helene Emsellem, MD, FAASM: Usually not. If there is an underlying cause of the RLS - such as iron deficiency - and it's corrected, then the RLS can clear up. RLS happens more frequently during pregnancy and may abate at the end of the pregnancy
Markus Schmidt, MD, PhD, and Asim Roy, MD: Although walking, moving, and stretching the legs can help alleviate the symptoms, RLS typically does not go away on its own. People with RLS that's been triggered by iron deficiency or another underlying condition may see their symptoms resolved once their medical condition is treated.
David B. Rye, MD, PhD: Rarely - but that's based on clinical samples. Who knows what happens in the real world?
What Are the Best Ways to Live Well With RLS?
Robert Doekel Jr., MD: In 2006 a small study found that a combination of moderate aerobic exercise and lower-body resistance training three days a week reduced symptom severity by about 50 percent. The study found that it took six weeks to see maximum benefit from the exercise program. Generally, people with RLS have reported that moderate exercise seems helpful and that strenuous exercise may worsen their symptoms.
If an underlying iron or vitamin deficiency is found to be the cause of restless legs, supplementing with iron, vitamin B, or folate (as indicated) may alleviate the symptoms or even clear them up.
Products, including chocolate, that contain caffeine should be avoided. Alcohol increases the duration or intensity of symptoms for most individuals. Avoid medications that can worsen symptoms, such as antihistamines, antinausea medications, and certain antidepressants and other psychiatric drugs.
Helene Emsellem, MD, FAASM: Maintain a regular sleep-wake schedule. A regular exercise program is often helpful. Identify and avoid triggers in your habits and activities.
Markus Schmidt, MD, PhD, and Asim Roy, MD: Symptoms can be greatly relieved by maintaining a consistent sleep-wake schedule, exercising regularly, and minimizing caffeinated beverages, tobacco, and alcohol.
David B. Rye, MD, PhD: A regular sleep-wake schedule. Physical activity - not too little or too much. Avoid other aggravators, such as red wine and alcohol in general. Avoid sleep deprivation.
Can RLS Lead to Something Worse?
Robert Doekel Jr., MD: No.
Helene Emsellem, MD, FAASM: Usually not. Although it can sometimes be a sign of an underlying problem, such as iron deficiency.
Markus Schmidt, MD, PhD, and Asim Roy, MD: RLS symptoms can worsen with age. More than 80 percent of individuals with RLS will also develop periodic limb movements during sleep - these are involuntary brief movements involving dorsiflexion, or movement upward, of the foot, knee, or hip These limb movements can disrupt sleep.
David B. Rye, MD, PhD: Other than really bad RLS, no; although data increasingly suggest that RLS confers "risk" for cardiovascular disease by way of mechanisms that remain ill-defined.
Are Medications Necessary to Treat RLS?
Robert Doekel Jr., MD: Supplements such as iron and vitamin B may work if there is an underlying deficiency (see my answer to question number 4). If there's no deficiency, vitamin E or magnesium supplementation may help relieve mild symptoms; if not, then prescription medication is usually required. Some patients with RLS have symptoms intermittently and can be treated only when the symptoms arise. Others require daily treatment.
An evaluation by a knowledgeable physician is the most helpful in determining the appropriate treatment.
Helene Emsellem, MD, FAASM: Identifying lifestyle changes that relieve symptoms is a reasonable form of intervention. When this is not sufficient, then medication may be necessary. We don't always have to treat everybody every day. For instance, some people need a medication when they are in a very confined situation - on a plane, in a car, or at the movies - but don't need treatment in other situations. Medication intervention depends on other medications that an individual is taking and whether treatment is going to be used on daily or intermittently. Drugs that increase brain dopamine may be helpful in relieving symptoms, as might be some anticonvulsants and some opioids. It is very important to look for underlying causes that could be treated before beginning a specific medication.
Markus Schmidt, MD, PhD, and Asim Roy, MD: A physician or an RLS specialist can prescribe dopaminergic agonist medications such as ropinirole or pramipexole, initially used to treat tremor and other symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease. Other medications - such as gabapentin enacarbil and narcotic analgesics, including methadone or oxycodone - can also help. If iron levels are low, iron replacement can be an effective treatment.
David B. Rye, MD, PhD: You'd treat iron deficiency if present. There are a number of medications, and this is really a question of lifestyle/personal choice between the doctor and the patient.
What Kind of Movement or Exercise Helps Relieve RLS Symptoms?
Robert Doekel Jr., MD: As I referenced in question number 4, moderate aerobic exercise and lower-body resistance training three days a week has been proven to reduced symptom severity by about 50 percent. Incorporate moderate exercise to see helpful results and stay away from strenuous exercise may worsen symptoms.
Helene Emsellem, MD, FAASM: Stretching exercises, massaging, and walking are some strategies. Some people like to lie down on their back with their legs flexed at the hip, their feet propped up on a wall, which can be helpful in relieving symptoms. Daily exercise programs are often helpful.
Markus Schmidt, MD, PhD, and Asim Roy, MD: Walking, moving, and massaging the legs can help alleviate the symptoms. Applying a hot or cold pack, taking a warm bath, and practicing relaxation techniques such as stretching and yoga may also help.
David B. Rye, MD, PhD: There are no known exercises to alleviate RLS. In fact, there is more a suggestion that people choose a profession as a sort of self-medication. For example, a lot of my patients are on their feet at their jobs (a disproportionate number are hairstylists, etc.). What's the chicken, then, and what's the egg?
What Other Lifestyle Changes Can Help People With RLS?
Robert Doekel Jr., MD: Live a healthy lifestyle, eliminate symptom-producing substances, take vitamin and mineral supplements if necessary, engage in activities that help take their minds off RLS, and avoid foods and medicines that aggravate symptoms.
Helene Emsellem, MD, FAASM: Avoid long car rides, plane trips, etc. - specifically, if you live close to work and don't have a 45-minute commute each way, that will make your life better.
Markus Schmidt, MD, PhD, and Asim Roy, MD: RLS is typically worsened by sleep deprivation. So maximizing sleep at night and practicing good sleep hygiene, such as maintaining a strict sleep-wake schedule, can help minimize symptoms.
David B. Rye, MD, PhD: Again, the effects of lifestyle changes have not been well studied.
What Are Two Tips That Can Help Prevent RLS During Travel?
Robert Doekel Jr., MD: Being able to move the legs gives temporary relief. If this is not possible, then additional medication may be required during periods of prolonged sitting - for example, during automobile or plane travel.
Helene Emsellem, MD, FAASM: This is very difficult. Many of our patients do use treatment just for travel. If you don't have any treatment and you are taking a long car ride, making short stops and walking around a little can be helpful.
Markus Schmidt, MD, PhD, and Asim Roy, MD: Sitting in a tight seat in an airplane or a car can exacerbate RLS symptoms. Stretching the legs or getting up briefly to walk when traveling can minimize symptoms. Some patients may benefit from taking their RLS medication prior to getting on a plane. If you're driving, be extra cautious because such medications can cause sleepiness.
David B. Rye, MD, PhD: Try not to travel sleep deprived, and get an aisle seat!
