Decompression Therapy or "Traction" is an FDA-Cleared Treatment for Lower Back and Leg Pain that Actually HEALS the Discs and in Most Cases Prevents Painful Surgeries!
Clinical Benefits of Traction Therapy
Research points to the beneficial effects of traction because it gently reduces pressure on joint surfaces and discs, allowing the body to regain its proper alignment. Traction therapy is a light, gentle stretch for soft tissue muscles and helps joints regain proper function. By stimulating sensory mechanoreceptors (the body's pressure sensors), spinal decompression technology brings relief from many painful conditions.
Traction Therapy Can Be Used to Relieve Symptoms Associated with Many Conditions.
- Protruding Discs
- Bulging Discs
- Herniated Discs
- Degenerative Disc Disease
- Posterior Facet Syndrome
- Acute Facet Problems
- Radicular Pain
- Prolapsed Discs
- Spinal Root Impingement
- Hypomobility
- Degenerative Joint Disease
- Facet Syndrome
- Compression Fractures
- Joint Pain
- Discogenic Pain

The New Orleans Saints will practice Wednesday (Aug. 20) at Mandeville High School and police said they expect several thousand fans to attend. Police said plenty of extra officers would be on hand to address security and parking issues that might arise.
Plan to attend? Here are four things to know:
- Practice starts at 7 p.m. and is scheduled to last until 9 p.m. The stadium will open at 5 p.m.
- Parking will be limited in and around the school grounds. The practice field will be closed to public parking. Also, do not park on the median of West Causeway Approach. Anyone parked illegally will be towed.
- No one will be allowed to park on campus until after school lets out at 3:30 p.m.
- Tailgating is not allowed on school property, and coolers are not allowed inside the stadium. Louisiana law prohibits the use or possession of alcohol on school grounds.
Mandeville Police Chief Rick Richard asked the public to follow the law and work with the Saints, school and city officials to ensure this is a safe and enjoyable event.

When planning a birthday party for girls, you want something fun that will bring out the giggles and not the groans. If you're thinking about a diva birthday party but want something a little different, consider throwing a Funny Fashions Birthday Party . The theme of this party is fashion–with a twist! Your little fashion divas will get all glammed up, but the end result will be comical. Have your camera ready to capture their final "runway" moments after they complete these activities:
Dressed in the dark
You can play this game either literally in the dark, or with each guest blindfolded. Lay out several containers, each with a different type of garment inside. For instance, one container might hold shirts with wild prints or play dresses, another would hold scarves, another might have costume jewelry, one might have silly socks, and still another could hold hats. You can add to this any way you choose with sunglasses, aprons, jackets, feather boas, Hawaiian leis, tutus, leg warmers, shoes, etc.
Each person will have a buddy to help them get dressed up. The blindfolded person, or person groping through each container in the dark, will select an item to wear. The buddy will help them put it on. They will continue until an item has been chosen from each container. Then it's someone else's turn. One by one, as the blindfolds come off, the girls will laugh at their silly, mixed-up outfits.
Makeup Mix-up
In this game, one blindfolded person applies makeup to another. The blindfolded person is allowed to feel the face of her subject, but no peeking. In the end, each girl may end up with eyeshadow smeared across her temples, lipstick bigger than her lips, and other hilarious looks.
Nutty nail salon
Purchase several wild colors of fingernail polish including glittery pinks, bright orange, neon green, etc. Place the bottles inside a pillowcase or bag where they can't be seen from the outside. Have each girl choose one bottle of polish from the bag. Then let her friends choose the remaining colors. The results should be a mixture of two to five crazy color combinations.
Hilarious Hair
In this activity one person can be the hair stylist, or girls can team up to be each other's hair stylist. The idea is to create all kinds of silly pony tail, pig tail, braided, spiked or gelled looks. You can even add temporary hair spray hair color in wild colors with the parents' permission. You'll need hair gel, hair spray, silly barrettes in shapes like bananas or tropical birds, and lots of colorful pony tail holders and clips.
When everyone is all glammed up, you can have them either walk a runway you've created with an aisle runner or long tablecloth, or you can let them pose inside empty picture frames for pictures. If you're quick with your computer, you can send each girl home with a photo of herself, or you can send one later with her thank you card.
Snacks for this party might include nail polish marshmallows (large marshmallows tinged with food coloring and topped with an unwrapped Tootsie Roll as a handle), eye mask shaped cookies, candy purses (a movie-theater size box of candy with licorice attached for handles), or high-heeled shoe cupcakes.
When you're in need of a great birthday party theme for girls, this zany Funny Fashions Party will be an event that keeps them giggling for a long time.

On April 8, the wrestling world lost a legendary wrestler that personified an era, captivated a generation and became a pop culture icon. The Ultimate Warrior, real name The Warrior, died at the age of 54 on Tuesday evening after collapsing outside an Arizona hotel according to an April 8 report by TMZ.com. Warrior, formerly known as Jim Hellwig, was apparently walking to his car with his wife where he collapsed. He was pronounced dead by time he arrived at the hospital.
The Warrior will be remembered for his in-ring intensity, incredible physique, shaking of the ropes and sprinting to the ring. However, over the last 18 years, he was mostly associated with the feuds he had outside of the ring. Warrior was effectively shunned by the WWE for nearly two decades. The company even bashed him in a 2005 DVD titled The Self-Destruction of the Ultimate Warrior DVD; which painted the Warrior out to be unprofessional, uncontrollable, comical and insignificant.
This DVD was a major part of The Warrior's HOF speech on Saturday April 5. He talked about how much it angered and hurt him. But, Warrior turned the message into one of perseverance as he thanked his fans for the constant support and for making his reunion with the WWE possible.
The Warrior should have been inducted into the WWE a long time ago. Unfortunately, his feud with the WWE, and CEO Vince McMahon, went from private to public and even into the courtroom. Yet, in an era that has seen Vince bury his grudges with other performers like Bruno Sammartino and Bret Hart, Vince and The Warrior were able to bury the hatchet and forgive each other for their past grudges.
Sadly, Warrior's feud with Vince McMahon wasn't the only one with fellow members of this elite fraternity. Warrior also had notable public feuds with wrestlers like Hulk Hogan and Jake "The Snake" Roberts.
Hogan, who will go down as The Warrior's greatest opponent, was also on the other end of a very ugly feud with Warrior outside of the ring. However, The Warrior's return to the WWE gave both wrestling legends the chance to end their senseless feud and make peace. Hogan shed light on this interaction as he made the following comments via Twitter:
We talked, both forgave each other, we hugged ,we shook hands as we told each other I love you, I am so sad, God bless his beautiful family HH"
Jake Roberts was a fellow inductee into the WWE HOF on April 5 and made the most of his return to the WWE both professionally and personally. Roberts took the time to meet with The Warrior and make peace after years of publicly insulting each other. Jake commented on this encounter via Twitter:
Deeply saddened. We just had a great talk & buried a senseless hatchet. Talked working together. RIP Warrior. Taking solace we made peace."
One can look back over the last few days of The Warrior's life and take some solace in knowing that the wrestling legend, the man, the father of two daughters was able to finally get his rightful place in the WWE HOF and an appearance in front of the WWE Universe to say his final goodbye.
And yet, the timing of The Warrior's passing is still very surreal. It's almost as if he foreshadowed his death during his promo on the April 7 edition of RAW. Warrior made the following comments:
Every man's heart one day beats its final beat. And if what that man did in his life makes the blood pulse through the body of others, it makes them bleed something larger than life. Then his essence, his spirit will be immortalized."
To a generation, a sports entertainment empire, and to his loved ones, The Warrior will be "immortalized."

Students from five Calhoun County high schools will participate in the Upward Bound Program at the Ayers Campus of Gadsden State Community College this summer. Program Director Sharon McGruder said that students from Saks, White Plains, Wellborn, Anniston and Oxford High Schools will participate in the program, which begins June 6 and concludes with a three-day trip to Tennessee July 14.
Upward Bound prepares underserved and first generation high school students for greater success in college and life through various instructional and enrichment courses during the year. Additional support will be provided for students who are at risk of academic failure during the summer program.
Students will spend the first weeks of the program on the Jacksonville State University Campus while attending math, science, Spanish and English workshops. "There will be added emphasis on computer skills training and special science workshops to help students prepare for the high school exit exam," McGruder said.
During the final weeks, students will return to the Ayers Campus where they will focus on their future. There will be discussions on career choices and decision-making skills concerning careers. The students will also be exposed to a new program feature, financial planning and budget management.
The trip to Chattanooga/Gatlinburg will include visits to the University of Tennessee in Knoxville and in Chattanooga. While in Gatlinburg, the group will visit the Ripley's Aquarium of the Smokies, Dolly Parton's Dixie Stampede Dinner Theater, theme parks and other tourists sights and take a ride on the Southern Belle Riverboat.
McGruder explained that the trip is beneficial for the students because it gives them an opportunity to grow by expanding their cultural and life experiences in a positive way. For more information contact Sharon McGruder at firstname.lastname@example.com or (256) 835-5461.

Maybe you have noticed the mention on labels : "contains sulfites"? Maybe you asked yourself what were sulfites to deserve to be reported ? In fact, sulfites are derivatives of sulfur.
Since its discovery, the sulfur is almost indispensable for winemakers because it allows the wine a better conservation over time. It has two main functions: to protect the wine from oxidation and to neutralize bacterial attacks still present in wine, which could lead to fatal alterations.
No efficient substitute has yet been discovered and you can find it as a preservative in many food products.
The problem with sulfites is that high doses can cause headaches or more serious reactions on particularly sensitive persons.
But be reassured, because of its Malbec grape, Cahors wine is one that contains the least. with its high concentration of polyphenols with antioxidant properties, we can avoid the amount of sulfur necessary to protect against oxidation, that's why Cahors wine has a good ageing capacity. On the contrary, white wines (which do not contain polyphenols) need higher doses for conservation, the most important doses are for sweet wines.

Three-Dimensional Cell Culture Has Two Dimensions,...

Widespread Adoption of Biomarkers Has Been...
Bellicum Pharmaceuticals won a $5.7 million company commercialization award from the Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas (CPRIT). The money will fund personnel hiring, manufacturing, and clinical testing of CaspaCIDe™ in graft versus host disease (GvHD).
Bellicum plans to create 30 new jobs over the next two years, growing its workforce to 40. Additionally, the award will support the execution of a Phase I/II randomized, double-blind trial of CaspaCIDe DLI in patients with high-risk hematologic malignancies are undergoning hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
CaspaCIDe DLI is a donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) in which donor T cells contain the CaspaCIDe safety switch. It is delivered to T cells using a retrovirus. The retroviral LTR promoter differentially drives increased expression of the CaspaCIDe protein in activated T cells, which are more likely to be those responsible for GvHD, ensuring their preferential, selective elimination, Bellicum explains.
CaspaCIDe compounds being developed by the firm contain the CID signaling domain for caspase 9, a caspase that triggers apoptosis when activated. This leads to the elimination of cells expressing the CaspaCIDe protein, Bellicum says. Transplant cells are transduced with a CaspCIDe gene after they are harvested from the donor and before they are infused into the patient.
Then, if any of the transplanted cells become harmful, or after the cells have served their intended therapeutic purpose, the physician can eliminate them by administering AP1903, the CID master key. In addition to a single CID binding domain and caspase 9 signaling domain, the CaspaCIDe protein includes a ΔCD19 marker used to sort and isolate cells that have had CaspaCIDe successfully inserted and to detect and monitor these cells after administration.
Bellicum was the only company awarded funding among 16 Texas-based winners receiving a total $116 million in commercialization funds for 22 projects; the other winners were research institutes, according to CPRIT.

Then, once everyone in the backseat is singing horribly offkey and attempting to drown out the too-loud song, the front seat riders (immediately and without the knowledge of the back seaters) turn off the song and revel in the embarassment of the horrible singers who know at most 3/4 of the words. See also Cars, Karaoke.
1974 Paul Anka song that includes the lyric "Whoa, the seed inside ya, Baby, do you feel it growin'?", making it a classic karaoke choice. See also Karaoke.

Hi everyone, I was wondering if people knew the story behind the attached photo? It's such a funny (and ironic) photo especially considering they ended up brother and sister. Was it just some off-screen fun?
Also, does anyone have a higher quality image of this? Or know if it was published anywhere? I'd love to print this out bigger or scan it in from somewhere, but I've only ever seen crappy files from online.

With 148 rushing yards in Sunday's 31-27 win over the Atlanta Falcons, the Saints moved up four spots in that category and no longer rank last in the weekly NFL stats.
Ranked at the bottom of the 32-team league going into last weekend's play, the Saints added 7.4 yards to their per-game average and now are 28th with an average of 88.4 yards per game.
The rushing defense also climbed out of the cellar in holding the Falcons to just 46 yards and are now ranked 31st in allowing 162.0 yards per game — trimming 14.5 yards a game off last week's average.
The bad news is that the Saints gave up 408 net passing yards last week and dropped two spots to 31st with 307.3 yards a game going into Sunday's matchup with the Oakland Raiders.
Here are the pertinent numbers for Sunday's matchup with the Raiders in O.co Coliseum (NFL rank in parentheses):
Offense: Total yards, 392.3 (4); rushing, 88.4 (28); passing, 303.9 (2); scoring, 27.7 (6).
Defense: Total yards, 469.3 (32); rushing, 162.0 (31); passing, 307.3 (31); scoring, 28.4 (t28).
Offense: Total yards, 365.6 (t12); rushing, 76.7 (31); passing, 288.9 (5); scoring, 21.2 (20).
Defense: Total yards, 374.9 (23); rushing, 119.0 (21); passing, 255.9 (24); scoring, 31.6 (31).
SAINTS FEATURED: The Saints-Falcons game will be one of two examined Wednesday at 9 p.m. on the NBC Sports Network's weekly feature, NFL Turning Point (Cox Cable 105).
The show will take a closer look at the high-scoring matchup of the Saints and previously-undefeated Falcons as well as how the Dallas Cowboys outplayed the Philadelphia Eagles.
BREES NOMINATED: Saints quarterback Drew Brees is a candidate for the FedEx NFL Air Player of the Week award after going 21-of-27 for 298 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's win over the Falcons.

During its sophomore season, "Parks" enjoyed an average of 5.1 million viewers, including an average 2.3 rating among adults ages 18-49.
Among viewership in that highly sought-after age range, "Parks" ranked in the Top 15 prime time TV series.
The Reporter said while "Parks" ranked lowest in ratings among fellow NBC series "The Office," "30 Rock" and "Community," those three comedies have yet to be renewed.

>Brookings Oregon News, Sports, & Weather | The Curry Coastal Pilot
Bill Farrell's statue, "...but not forgotten," was exactly that after his home burned down in Laguna Beach on April 17, 1991.
ABOVE: Brookings resident Bill Farrell, who served eight years in the U.S. Marine Corps, left the blackened remains of his statue in the ashes of a house fire 22 years ago, thinking it was worthless. The Pilot/Jef Hatch
The Brookings man didn't have time to think about it at the time, as he was trying to escape the flames that were devouring his plaster and lathe home.
"I couldn't get out," he said. "I was trapped. The flames were all over the walls, I opened the door, they were right there. …
"I got my .45 and said, 'I ain't going to die this way.' And then there was this big blast. I thought the gas or water heater'd blown up. But it was the can of black powder in the living room. Blew the whole front window out. The fire went that way, chasing the oxygen. That's the only way I got out. If it hadn't been for that black powder, I couldn't have gotten out of there. No way."
He lost it all — even his guns were melted. The house had burned to the ground, along with his bronze statue of a Marine infantryman he'd had commissioned by artist C. Ross Morgan in 1988.
The 2-foot-tall statue features a strapping man, helmet in one hand, M-16 rifle in the other, slogging ankle deep through reeds in a swamp. On its wooden base lie dog tags.
It meant a lot to Farrell, as he served eight years in the U.S. Marines.
"It was such a hot fire, everything was gone. Everything," Farrell said. "The base was totally burned off. The last time I saw it was in the house where I left it. The statue was so black ... it was worthless."
The insurance company thought so, too, and wrote off the house and its contents as a total loss. The statue, No. 15 of 35 made, was left, presumably melted into a blob of metal. Farrell moved to Oregon in 1993.
22 years later
One day, three months ago, Farrell found himself thinking about the statue's artist, who lives in Sedona, Ariz.
"All of a sudden, I thought of Clyde," he said, shaking his head. "I went through my Rolodex, found an old number and thought, 'Well, I'll try.'"
He hit paydirt.
"He said, 'Bill, I have your '...but not forgotten.' I said, 'No ...' He said, 'No, I have it.' I thought he was kidding me. It totally never entered my mind. It's gone. That was it."
The statue was in the possession of a man who was trying to sell it at auction in San Diego last September, Morgan told him. The auctioneer became suspicious and called Morgan — who flew to Southern California and purchased it for $3,000, the original asking price.
Morgan thought the statue belonged to O.C. Dale, who served as the model for the statue. Dale had given his statue to his aunt, who had it stolen during a home burglary.
But when he scraped off the patina, the numbers revealed themselves: 15/35. And number 15 matched up in his records to Farrell.
"He didn't know about mine (in the fire)," Farrell said. "He asked if I wanted it back, and I said, 'What? Do you have to ask me that? Of course I do."
It took Morgan two months, but he restored it to its original condition.
Farrell paid for the restoration and was reunited with his statue, which now adorns his mantle, just over a week ago when Morgan's wife, LeeAnn, drove through town on a road trip to Washington.
"I told my wife, since you're headed that way, why don't you drop off the statue," Clyde said.
"And just look," he said. "Boy, did he ever get the details. See that rubber band around the helmet? That's what held our mosquito repellent in. He got it down to the way were. Perfect."
Thursday, he was still shaking his head in amazement.
"Out of the blue," he said. "I was just shocked. No way. No way. Twenty-two years and two months later. I've been on cloud nine for a week. I'm ecstatic."

We're sure Lightenup Design would stress the green appeal of the Button Corset Vase ($390), a hand crafted natural clay piece with earth-friendly glaze. While the Brooklyn based designers behind this piece fight the good fight, this is way out of our price range and verges on vulgar. Since the ever enchanting Rachel McAdams founded Green With Glamour, the merchant of this strange item, we'll give it the benefit of the doubt. For weird fashion inspiration, tasteful punches of metallic, and obvious craftsmanship, this flashy piece gets brownie points in our book.

Ok, My wife went to Shooters World to take her CCW class. She passed both written and shooting portion of the test. Now all she needs id to have the Federal Background Check. This won't be an issue because she is squeaky clean as well and already went through the NICS check when she bought her Khar 9M.
Asked her how it went and she replied "My Pully Backy Thing " was hard to do. I said "What ???" oh, you mean the slide ?
So I felt that getting her a revolver will help her in firearms.
What do I look for in a revolver ? Do they come in 9M. She is quite petite, 5ft 2 and 100lbs.
She can handle the kick of 9M with her Kahr TP9, but my 45 is too much for her.
I really don't even know where to start, what ammo should shoot and so on.
This will be her carry weapon.

Andre shared a picture of a man sleeping on the street, a man whose face and body is ravaged by leprosy. "We would call this a homeless person in America. If we did the same thing in India, there would be more homeless people than people in homes."
"We are all here on earth to heal, not to judge," Andre said. "I want us to think that there are people who have leprosy in this room It's not the kind that's eating away at our physical bodies. We have spiritual leprosy.
"Jesus is trying to tell us that we can do anything," he said. "Find me one limitation in the scriptures. He says if we have faith like a mustard seed, we can move mountains with that amount of faith."
Douglas is currently serving with her husband who is the president of the LDs Church's Dominican Republic Santiago Mission, but she never stops worrying and thinking about the people.
She's not sure how many people Rising Star has assisted over the past eight years, but she knows it's in the thousands.
"It's a pretty serious operation and we're thinking expansion," Douglas said. "Our clinic this year will do 10,000 treatments."
When a family has one member affected by leprosy, the whole family is run out of the general population, she said, so children and spouses are afflicted as much as one with the disease, becoming "untouchable."
Even though the cure for leprosy was discovered in 1988, the stigma lives on. A person who discovers a small white spot of disease will often hide it and put off getting treatment even though it can be treated efficiently.
It's still not clear how leprosy is spread, but it's suspected there is a genetic component involved. Those who contract leprosy generally already have a compromised immune system.
Douglas said no one in her organization of volunteers has come down with leprosy despite their close contact including cleaning wounds, helping build homes for those who've lost fingers and teaching English.
"We have people from all walks of life volunteering," Douglas said. "Families bring their small children. We had 21 members of the Marriott family here on their knees helping. Now they're one of our best financial contributors."
Volunteers pay their own way over to India. They serve selflessly without pay.
"Oh my goodness! The miracles!" said Douglas. "We see the parable of the loaves and the fishes every day. We stand back and watch God feed the five thousand with very little. Even the Hindu say, 'Oh, it's God' as we watch the miracles happen."

Sonny Rollins & Coleman Hawkins: Lover Man
Lover Man
Sonny Rollins (tenor sax) and Coleman Hawkins (tenor sax)
Sonny Meets Hawk (RCA 63479)
Sonny Rollins (tenor sax), Coleman Hawkins (tenor sax), Paul Bley (piano), Bob Cranshaw (bass), Roy McCurdy (drums).
Recorded: New York, February and July 1963
Rating: 95/100 (learn more)
Sonny Rollins' avant-garde period – culminating in East Broadway Rundown – was in full bloom when the 33-year-old recorded with his boyhood idol, Coleman Hawkins. On "Lover Man," Rollins' boisterous tenor is at its most expressive – jarringly rhythmic in the low end, feeding off the more subdued statements of Hawkins. The two trade inspired choruses before Hawkins restates the melody under Rollins' screeching, sustained altissimo counterpoint. A thrilling performance.

Here is a short story over long years about a woman who wrote a love poem to a man she, yes, loved. She never sent it. She did not know how he felt, there was no particular spoken or unspoken indication that he felt the same about her, so she wrote it for the sake of putting her feelings to paper. Years passed and she came across this poem. What to do? Too late to send it? Maybe. Maybe not. She had no trouble finding his address, but he was in a relationship and so was she, so the idea of mailing this seemed intrusive at least and destructive at worst.
Should we send love letters to old flames? There are issues to be considered, of course. If the sweetheart is now in a relationship with someone who would react to it with jealousy or anger, you might think twice about sending it. Okay, don't send it at all. If you are in a present relationship and you don't want to open doors to a love you may still feel or do something on the sly, think carefully. More time passed.
Her relationship had come to an end, and what do you know, so had his! Time to send the letter? Would he think it too weird? Would she? Well, she worked up her courage and slipped it into the mailbox with a note saying she found this unsent letter and thought he might like to know she used to feel this way about him. They got together for lunch and essentially recreated a so-far undefined relationship based on yesterday with an eye toward what tomorrow might be. Maybe lovers, maybe chums. We don't know yet.
What we do know is that it is never too late to tell people you were thinking of them and remembering all the good about them and what you treasured. A letter of affection is a wonderful kind of love letter. To know you were loved yesterday is certainly a gift today. If neither of you is in a relationship, and time has passed, you may want to dive right in and send that old love letter even frayed and yellowed with age.
Yes, it takes courage. It is an act of faith that it will be well received. But, even on the outside chance you never get a response, aren't you better for having offered love, memories or friendship? Sometimes yesterday's love is a wonderful foundation for today's simple delicious friendship. Or today's unmatched passion.
From me to you with love in the air, and maybe in the mailbox,

Lactobacillus reuteri did not reduce crying or fussing or improve sleep
Colic is a term used to describe uncontrollable crying in an otherwise healthy baby. Although it spontaneously resolves three to four months after birth, its cause remains elusive and no single effective treatment exists.
Previous small trials suggest that the probiotic Lactobacillus reuteri effectively treats colic in breastfed infants. These studies, however, had limitations as they examined only a highly selective group of infants with colic. The effects of L reuteri on formula fed infants with colic are unknown.
In this new study researchers based in Australia and Canada set out to determine whether the probiotic Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 reduces crying or fussing in a broad community based sample of breastfed infants and formula fed infants with colic aged less than 3 months.
Participants included 167 breastfed infants or formula fed infants aged less than 3 months meeting Wessel's criteria for crying or fussing. Between August 2011 and August 2012, participants were recruited from a range of services accessed by careers of newborn babies in Melbourne, Australia: the Royal Children's Hospital emergency department, the Royal Children's Hospital Unsettled Babies Clinic, Tweddle Child and Family Health Center (a mother-infant parenting center), two maternal child health centers (universal nurse health checks), and pediatricians at the Royal Children's Hospital and in private practices. Families could also contact the study team to be involved.
At random 85 infants received a probiotic and 82 received a placebo. Outcomes included daily duration of crying or fussing at one month, sleep duration, mother's mental health, family and infant quality of life.
The results showed that at one month the probiotic group cried or fussed an adjusted mean of 49 minutes/day more than the placebo group. The probiotic group fussed significantly more than the placebo group at all-time points from day seven to one month. Although daily duration of cry or fuss decreased over the study period in both groups, the decline by 1 month was greater in the placebo group than probiotic group, with a mean difference in reduction of 46 minutes. At 6 months, the groups did not differ for duration of cry or fuss.
By one month 40% (27) of the probiotic group and 48% (29) of the placebo group showed at least a 50% reduction in duration of cry or fuss.
In their conclusion the researchers write "L reuteri DSM 17938 did not benefit a community sample of breastfed infants and formula fed infants with colic. These findings differ from previous smaller trials of selected populations and do not support a general recommendation for the use of probiotics to treat colic in infants."
The researchers point out that this is the largest randomized controlled trial of probiotic intervention in infants with colic to date.
They conclude that L reuteri treatment "did not reduce crying or fussing in infants with colic, nor was it effective in improving infant sleep, maternal mental health, family or infant functioning, or quality of life" and say "probiotics therefore cannot be routinely recommended for all infants with colic."
Further research is needed to identify which subgroups of infants with colic may benefit from probiotics, they add.
Dr. William E Bennett Jr, MD, Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at Indiana University School of Medicine, in an accompanying editorial writes "This represents the most definitive and well-designed study to date on this controversial topic."
With such a dearth of good evidence, should we be treating infant colic at all, he asks? He points out that children with colic "incur no serious long term effects" from the disorder and symptoms "abate with time," whereas the potential harm associated with diagnostic testing and treatment of infants "is likely to surpass the harm from colic itself."
As the old adage goes "babies cry," he concludes. Parents and their babies "may be better served if we devote more resources to studying the interventions recommended long before the discovery of probiotics: reassurance, family social support, and the tincture of time."
This study appears in BMJ-British Medical Journal.

This is how you Start a Campfire says Four Year Old
My four year old tells me all of these silly stories and sometimes stories in…
Another Monday is here and today I decided to report in via YouTube, rather than by blog post. This video discusses what child abuse perpetrators look like, bet you can't guess what they look like? Also the video goes on to discuss ways for us to help the youth who are in our lives, that can be your own children or other children in the community.
Be that person for our youth, because every child enjoys a chance to thrive in life and enjoy life to the fullest! Be that one person a child can turn to and be that one person who can do everything in their power to ensure another child is taken away from an abusive scenario!
Have a wonderful week and may your Monday bring you happiness. Xo
It's an important topic to spread the word on, and you're right children do need to be educated that abusers can look like anyone. I also agree that you can tell if something is 'off' with your child and another person. Watching those signs just makes good sense.
Rosey´s last blog post ..All Better (and happy for it too)

Turning DC motors into servos
This project is about positioning DC motors, check out the main project index for the rest.
With a wheeled robot the motors can simply be switched off and on to drive it around. With a legged robot it is slightly more difficult as each joint needs to be positioned accurately.
This article is a brief description of how I am building a control system for
Android 5, it will allow accurate positioning of each linear actuator from
commands sent on a serial bus.
