Joda time - minus Duration from DateTime

I've searched around but cannot find an answer for this.

I have a Duration:

Duration dur = Duration.ofMillis(50);

and I have a DateTime:

DateTime dt = DateTime.now();

How do I subtract the Duration from the DateTime? I can see the method DateTime.Minus(ReadableDuration) so I thought I could do this:

DateTime dt = DateTime.now().minus(dur);

But apparently Duration does not extend ReadableDuration.

From the Joda time 2.2 API, the class Duration implements ReadableDuration. So, Duration is a subtype of ReadableDuration.

public final class Duration
       extends BaseDuration
       implements ReadableDuration, Serializable

See http://joda-time.sourceforge.net/apidocs/org/joda/time/Duration.html.
