planetc1.com-news@1:48 pm PST April Fools' Day is one day away, and you can expect April Fools' Day pranks, practical jokes, and other shenanigans coming from a wide variety of sources. There's the traditional sources for April Fools' Day gags, such as friends and coworkers, but with the growth of the Internet, and the opportunity for web traffic, don't be surprised if some big media outlets try playing you for a fool on April 1, 2008.
planetc1.com-news@9:43 pm PST The war in Iraq, the nation's economy, and health care, are reportedly the top three concerns for most Americans planning to vote in this years presidential election. The three front running candidates, Hillary Rodham Clinton (D), Barack Obama (D), and John McCain (R), along with their parties, have significantly different philosophies about how to grapple with the issue of health care in the United States. In continuing with our coverage of money in politics and presidential candidates, we take a look today at the top 10 health professionals organizations that are contributing funds to federal candidates and parties for the 2008 election cycle. The list of which organizations are giving (and who's not giving) may come as a surprise to some.

Featured are selected ads that were placed before midweek of March 26, 2008. March 2008 Review of Chiropractic News Archives planetc1.com-news@2:00 pm PST From as early as last week, to news from the turn-of-the-century, there is often times stories and articles we may have missed that deserve greater attention. But with the growth of social media, RSS feeds, and an abundance of news related web sites, there's tons of information coming at us from all directions, and we don't have the time to browse through content from the past. On this website, I'm hoping to make that a little bit easier, with a monthly glimpse into chiropractic news articles from 2000 through to the present. Is not only important to know where we're going, it's good to reflect back and know where we came from.
planetc1.com-news@9:04 pm PST Providing chiropractic care to the residents of Lantana and West Palm Beach Florida for the past decade, Dr. Edwin Cordero of Cordero Family Chiropractic has recently opened an additional chiropractic office in Royal Palm Beach. The local Florida chiropractor began running television advertisements on a local Fox channel, which serves the the Lantana and Royal Palm Beach areas, and they've been showing to be successful.
planetc1.com-news@1:22 pm PST Browse around the reception area of most medically minded health-care facilities and you're likely to come across magazines of all types. Besides your traditional publications, like National Geographic, you may expect to find common publications like Time, People, Sports Illustrated, Forbes, and maybe even the Robb Report. However, there's a good possibility that magazines displayed in the offices of chiropractors, and other holistic health care practitioners, won't include those you'd likely see at your major chain supermarket checkout stand. There are two primary reasons for that.

planetc1.com-news@1:03 pm PST Regardless of your e-mail provider, chances are there is spam in your e-mail inbox. This topic has been covered a gazillion times but it's usually focused on the types of spam most of us typically receive. There's the lottery winnings, the small-business loans, the cheap rates on medication, real estate and stock deals, and such. Spam like this is probably sent in the billions each day, and it's a major drain on user productivity, electricity, and computer resources. Nobody likes spam (except maybe spammers) so why is it such a common practice for businesses to spam within their industry niches?
planetc1.com-news@9:23 pm PST 30 years ago Friday, March 21, 1978, a young South African named Fred Schofield arrived in the United States to pursue his goal of becoming a chiropractor in America. Since that 1970s spring day, he has touched the lives of millions, providing chiropractic care to thousands of residents in the Phoenix, Arizona area, and teaching hundreds of chiropractors worldwide methods to deliver quality chiropractic care in their communities.

planetc1.com-news@10:04 pm PST The month of March is on its way out, and April is right around the corner. There's a change in seasons coming, and it's a fresh time to hone up on some chiropractic philosophy, science, and art. Events are taking place all over the U. S., and there's a few I wanted to report on in Southern California, Las Vegas, and New Jersey. It's a great time to get off your buttocks and fellowship with others.

Rapid Spread of MRSA Drug Resistant Staph Bacteria in Hospitals planetc1.com-news@10:55 am PST The medical community is divided over what approach should be taken in controlling the rapid spread of drug resistant Staphylococcus Aureus bacteria in hospitals and other crisis care facilities. There are professionals with the belief that hospitals should be performing widespread screening on large numbers of patients, isolating those that match positive for methicillin-resistant stapholoccocus aureus (MRSA) infection. Others argue that a widespread screening approach can be both inefficient and costly. In a recent study, such screenings reportedly resulted in expenses hospitals didn't need, with no decrease in hospital acquired infections occurring.

planetc1.com-news@9:24 pm PST When it comes to discussing small business approaches, there is no argument that developing a service minded client strategy, can reap both short-term and long-term benefits. It's easy to categorize a topic like this into a marketing pigeonhole, but there is a multitude of other reasons why businesses put such an emphasis on customer service. I reviewed a group of chiropractic articles featuring the topic of serving others, and I discovered more than the few motivational words of wisdom. Spine Philosophy Group Does Brentwood Meetup planetc1.com-news@11:12 am PST Brentwood chiropractors and others from the SoCal area gathered recently, to discuss philosophy, mentorship, and future group activities. Chiropractic groups like this one meet up regularly, and I feel it's important that once in awhile, these little events, get the big attention they deserve.
planetc1.com-news@9:58 pm PST Before the advent of the measles vaccine, a dozen or so cases of measles would have been considered, well, too measly to make the headlines. That is because we all got the measles when we were kids. In fact, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) considers anyone born before 1957 to be immune to the measles.

All sorts of pharmaceuticals -- including antibiotics, sex hormones, anti-convulsion drugs, psychiatric drugs, painkillers, epileptic medications, and chemicals to treat high cholesterol, have been found in drinking water supplies of at least 41 million Americans, according to a stunning investigation conducted by the Associated Press. 7 Bad Name Choices For Your Chiropractic Office planetc1.com-news@1:00 pm PST 10 years ago, deciding on a name for one's chiropractic office was a fairly easy decision. In the naming process, a typical chiropractor would determine what other names were being used in the community and steer clear of those. If not using their last name for their clinic (Smith Chiropractic) it wouldn't be uncommon that they would choose one of several popular chiropractic office names, usually ones they've heard being used by friends and colleagues in other states. The Internet and the desire for one's office name to rank well in search engines has changed that, at least for now.
planetc1.com-news@5:42 pm PST The Chiropractic Roundtable Discussion Group (CRDG) is scheduled to meet in Las Vegas on Friday, April 11, 2008.

planetc1.com-news@10:43 pm PST A Friday evening should not be spent searching one's web site for content that's difficult to find. I was sifting through some news archives earlier today, preparing an article on 2008 politics and the chiropractic vote, and I was having a difficult time locating a piece or two authored by myself, search should be a lot easier than that.
