Send us Fan Mail## Episode 7: Growing Up Straight – The Importance of Pediatric Chiropractic CareWhy do people take their babies to a chiropractor? They aren't even walking yet, so how could they possibly have back problems?In Part 7 of our 12-week "Wellness Lifecycle" series, Dr. Brant Hulsebus explores the world of pediatric chiropractic care. From his own experience receiving his first adjustment on the very day he was born, to helping modern teenagers manage the heavy weight of physical and emotional stress, Dr. Hulsebus explains why checking children's spines is vital for healthy development. ### In this episode, you'll learn:* A Family Tradition: The history of newborn care in the Hulsebus family and what to look for when choosing a qualified pediatric chiropractor.* Gentle Adjustments: How adjusting a baby is completely different from adjusting an adult. (Hint: It involves a very light touch, with zero twisting or popping!)* The Top 3 Newborn Issues: Why sleep problems, colic, and constipation are frequently linked to cervical and pelvic tension caused by the birthing process.* Hitting Milestones: Why checking children as they learn to crawl and walk helps prevent bad movement habits from forming.* The Triad of Stress: How physical (sports/falls), chemical (junk food), and emotional (puberty/academics) stressors impact a child's nervous system as they grow.---### About the HostDr. Brant Hulsebus is a proud graduate of Palmer College of Chiropractic and serves as the team chiropractor for the Rockford IceHogs. His family practice has been serving Rockford, Illinois, since the late 1940s, giving him a deep, multi-generational perspective on the importance of pediatric and family wellness.### Join the JourneyThis is Part 7 of our 12-week series.

The twist on this one is you get to decide if you want the Nice version with Santa and all the traditional happiness that comes with that or the Naughty version based on Krampas with the darker side of Christmas dice. They also have an option to let the Christmas goblin decide which one you get when you order, which I think is pretty cool.Christina, the more dice the merry I assume, but which one of this do you like better? And I'm not Christmas shopping, pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.[Kick to Christina]Mike, I'm going to assume you like the cat dice, but which one is it for you?[Kick to Mike]Next up we have the Glass Staff Player Journal.https://forgedgaming.com/products/glassstaff-player-journal?variant=47958671098087&country=US¤cy=USD&utm_source=chatgpt.comI love these player journals. They are faux leather bound with gold foil and premium paper. They look great and inside they have almost 200 pages to keep track of your character. From pages with all of the little boxes for character stuff to open pages to write about your adventures. The only problem for me is that they all seem to be made for D&D5e and since I don't play that…oh well.Finally, how about a little fantasy glass ware. Nobody can have enough glass ware and if you settling down with your friends after storming the duke's castle and sharing some of your favorite adult beverage then you need something cool to put it in.https://www.fantasyglassworks.com/Fantasy Glass Works can pretty much custom make whatever you want from beer mugs to coffee cups and most things in between. And they are family owned out of Rockford Illinois so that's a bonus. I think I would get a Tankard Beer Mug with the Sigil from our Conan Campaign.Mike, how about this as a Christmas gift?[Kick to Mike]Christina, any favorites?[Kick to Christina]And there you have it, all the news, you've already heard.

Send us a text Slam the Gavel welcomes Ronda Gonzalez Atkins to the podcast. We discussed Kia Walker's podcast (Season 5, Episodes 77 and 112) and how similar the treatment of Kia was to others in Winnebago County, Rockford, IL. We discussed Sheriff Stephen Schumaker's behaviors entangled in eight different Civil Suits. Why is this behavior allowed to continue? In 2023, an officer shot a father 12 times with his 8 year-old son present in the house. Ronda discussed the conditions of the Winnebago County jail. Also there was a usage of a logo of a skull called, "The Punisher," by the Tactical Team for Drug and Gang Crime. When the ACLU became involved in 2017 that logo was removed. Now, The Rockford Police Department is under the command of Chief Carla Redd. Chief Redd served 23 years, beginning as a patrol officer until becoming Chief in 2021. She is cleaning up the police department, finding body-cam footage and holding those responsible for wrongdoing, while weeding out the troublemakers. We also discussed the officers with exemplary records, there are still good officers out there. We discussed the fatal shooting of Sonya Massey in the state of Illinois when she called 911 asking for help.To Reach Ronda Gonzalez Atkins: grssgrn2@gmail.com Supportshow(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri)Maryann Petri: dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comhttps://www.tiktok.com/@maryannpetriFacebook: https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/guitarpeace/Pinterest: Slam The Gavel Podcast/@guitarpeaceLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maryann-petri-62a46b1ab/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536 Twitter https://x.com/PetriMaryann*DISCLAIMER* The use of this information is at the viewer/user's own risk.

Our guest this week is United States Air Force retired Major General John Borling of Rockford, IL, a father, grandfather, author and founder of Service Over Self (S.O.S.) America, a non-profit dedicated to promoting the values of; freedom, responsibility, liberty and duty.John and his wife, Myrna, both Rockford, IL natives, have been married for 61 years and are the proud parents of two daughters and two grandchildren. John served in the United States Air Force for 37 years and retired as a Major General in 1994. He was a fighter pilot who flew 97 combat missions in Vietnam, before being shot down, captured by the North Vietnamese, and held as a POW in the infamous Hanoi Hiton for 6 1/2 years. His many awards include: a Silver Star, two Distinguished Flying Crosses, three Bronze Stars with V for Valor, and two Purple Hearts among a host of other accolades. John is author of the book:Taps On The Walls: Poems From The Hanoi HIlton. The book includes a collection of stories and poems John shared with his fellow POWs, by literally tapping on the prison walls, one letter at a time. He credits these poems with helping maintain his sanity and connection to friends and loved ones. He was able to record and memorialize the poems shortly after his release in 1973. With the encouragement of others, including the late Senator John McCain, a fellow POW, he published the poems in 2013, on the 40 year anniversary of their release as POWs. John is also founder and chairman of SOS America, a non profit patriotic, membership organization that supports a military service program for our young adults that augments the high cost of the All Volunteer Forces (AVF) of the U.S. Military. John also has a blog entitled The Third Degree, a weekly Sunday column that relies on the good judgment of the American people to make informed decisions for themselves and the nation. TTD, however, in keeping with its definition, reserves the right to pose hard questions on personal and public subjects worthy of interrogation.It's an inspiring conversation, especially as we go into Memorial Day Weekend, here on the SFN Dad to Dad Podcast.Show Links - Email - john@third-degreeUS.comWebsite – https://third-degreeus.com/LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-borling/Taps On The Walls: Poems From The Hanoi Hilton - https://tinyurl.com/3rp278c3Special Fathers Network - SFN is a dad to dad mentoring program for fathers raising children with special needs.

Brand new guest Bless Coast Seeds is on the podcast! Tune in to this awesome breeder feature as we enter Cultivar-gust for a whole month of strain and cultivar discussion! Bless Coast talks about what brought him into the world of seedmaking and breeding. He talks about what he focuses on when making selections, and what traits he likes to look for when he's going through extensive hunts. This leads to a conversation about intersex stability, and how much you can or cannot expect a specific strain of cannabis to hold stable and not throw pollen under any environmental circumstances. The boys also discuss the future of cannabis breeding and genetic variation- leading to a conversation about CRISPR and where gene editing could fit into the cannabis breeding world. *Looking for a positive place to connect with other growers and expand your knowledge of cultivation?

The motion phase of the trial is complete so now, we need a jury. Due to the overwhelming press coverage of all things related to John Wayne Gacy, there is no way an unbiased jury is going to be found in Cook County, So, the case takes a road trip to Rockford IL for jury selection. After a few days in Rockford the jury selection process is complete and, with jurors in tow, everyone heads back to cook county, to the corner of 26th and California. Opening statements will be heard today. Bob Egan from the State. Robert Motta for the defense.
