HELLERTOWN, PA, November 03, 2012 (Press-News.org) Momosa Publishing LLC is pleased to announce the release of The Mommy MD Guide to the Toddler Years, the third in the Mommy MD Guides book series filled with tips that Mommy MD Guides, doctors who are also mothers, use for their own families. The 900+ reassuring, trusted, and often even humorous tips in this book are presented in the Mommy MD Guides' own words, and each tip is clearly attributed to the doctor who lived it.
To bring this book to life, coauthors Rallie McAllister, MD, MPH, and Jennifer Bright Reich interviewed 62 Mommy MD Guides. Combined, these physicians have centuries of medical expertise and share the real-world parenting experiences of more than 150 children, and numerous grandchildren, uniquely qualifying Mommy MD Guides as experts, squared.
The Mommy MD Guide to the Toddler Years creates a new standard in providing mothers with a powerful combination of sound medical advice and proven, real-world tips. The book is filled with useful information about common challenges and celebrations of parenting that most mothers will face, not focusing on unusual symptoms and problems that only a few moms will encounter.
Throughout the book, Mommy MD Guides provide Mommy MD Guide-Recommended Product sidebars, which are full of recommendations on specific brands, products, and stores that have a proven track record of success. These sidebars are tremendously helpful for moms because they help cut through the clutter, eliminating some of the confusion surrounding a flood of well-hyped, but unnecessary, child-related products.
Other books in the Mommy MD Guides series are The Mommy MD Guide to Pregnancy and Birth and The Mommy MD Guide to Your Baby's First Year. Also visit the companion site, DaddyMDGuides.com, and download the Mommy MD Guide to Pregnancy and Birth app: Mommy MDs.
Forthcoming books in the series include The Mommy MD Guide to Losing Weight and Feeling Great, The Mommy MD Guide to Feeding Your Family Right, and The Mommy MD Guide to Breastfeeding.
The Mommy MD Guides answer readers' questions for free at MommyMDGuides.com. They also answer media questions, by email or phone, via the portal at media@mommymdguides.com.
Book specifications: 6"X 9", 512 pp, $17.95. Request it at a local bookseller or purchase online at www.amazon.com or www.MommyMDGuides.com, where you can save 25% and receive a free bonus gift.

150 Arrears Chasers to Be Hired in Scotland, Says Debt Advice Company Scottishtrustdeed.co.uk
2012-11-03
Ireland's mortgage crisis has become significantly worse over the last few months. With 19bn of the bank's business being mortgage debt and the average mortgage being around GBP200,000, it is estimated around 12,500 customers are probably now in mortgage arrears.

UCSB scientists report 'new beginning' in split-brain research, using new analytical tools
2012-11-02
(Santa Barbara, Calif.) –– UC Santa Barbara has reported an important discovery in the interdisciplinary study of split-brain research. The findings uncover dynamic changes in brain coordination patterns between left and right hemispheres.
Split-brain research has been conducted for decades, and scientists have long ago shown that language processing is largely located in the left side of the brain. When words appear only in the left visual field –– an area processed by the right side of the brain –– the right brain must transfer that information to the left brain, in ...
California is home to extreme weather, too
2012-11-02
MERCED, Calif. — California isn't going to face a superstorm like Hurricane Sandy because the Pacific Ocean is too cold to feed that kind of weather system.
But that doesn't mean California won't see extreme weather, say researchers from the University of California, Merced.
"We can see very big storms, and there are a couple of issues related to climate change to think about," said Roger Bales, director of the Sierra Nevada Research Institute. "Most of our biggest storms are snow storms, which builds up snowpack in the mountains. The snowpack is a reservoir, storing ...
Developmental bait and switch
2012-11-02
PASADENA, Calif.—During the early developmental stages of vertebrates—animals that have a backbone and spinal column, including humans—cells undergo extensive rearrangements, and some cells migrate over large distances to populate particular areas and assume novel roles as differentiated cell types. Understanding how and when such cells switch their purpose in an embryo is an important and complex goal for developmental biologists. A recent study, led by researchers at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), provides new clues about this process—at least in the ...

New medication shows promise as lipid-lowering therapy for rare cholesterol disorder
2012-11-02
PHILADELPHIA – An international effort led by researchers at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania has resulted in positive phase 3 clinical trial results for a new medicine to treat patients suffering from a rare and deadly cholesterol disorder.
Penn researchers report in The Lancet that lomitapide, a first-in-class microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) inhibitor, substantially and stably reduced LDL cholesterol (the "bad" cholesterol) in patients with the orphan disease homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH). Lomitapide ...
Brain imaging alone cannot diagnose autism
2012-11-02
Belmont, MA— In a column appearing in the current issue of the journal Nature, McLean Hospital biostatistician Nicholas Lange, ScD, cautions against heralding the use of brain imaging scans to diagnose autism and urges greater focus on conducting large, long-term multicenter studies to identify the biological basis of the disorder.
"Several studies in the past two years have claimed that brain scans can diagnose autism, but this assertion is deeply flawed," said Lange, an associate professor of Psychiatry and Biostatistics at Harvard Medical School. "To diagnose autism ...
When considering bariatric surgery think about bones
2012-11-02
Bariatric surgery, which significantly curtails the amount of food a person can eat, is the most effective treatment against obesity and is being recognized as a potentially valuable tool in the fight against diabetes related to obesity. It is being performed on increasing numbers of people worldwide, including teenagers.
Unfortunately, some types of bariatric surgery may also cause bone loss, a cause for concern, particularly when carried out on young people who have not yet reached their peak bone mass, say endocrinologists from Sydney's Garvan Institute of Medical ...
Temporary storage for electrons: Natural method of producing hydrogen
2012-11-02
Scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Energy Conversion (MPI CEC) and the Ruhr-Universität Bochum (RUB) have found through spectroscopic investigations on a hydrogen-producing enzyme that the environment of the catalytic site acts as an electron reservoir in the enzyme. Thus, it can very efficiently produce hydrogen, which has great potential as a renewable energy source. The research team describes their results in the journal "Angewandte Chemie".
Producing hydrogen with enzymes
The system analysed constitutes an enzyme that catalyses the formation and ...
