Apparently this device is called a "Pigg O Stat", used to immobilize babies for X-rays to reduce radiation exposure. The pics have gone viral.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Not in my home. We were a wooden spoon family. My mom once broke one on my butt when I was a toddler.
