PERFECT CELEBRATION

Annual MLK birthday event, Presidential Inauguration brings out the American spirit

Larry Blustein As the nation’s eyes were peeled toward Washington D.C. on Monday, where President Barack Obama, was being inaugurated into office for his second term, there was plenty to be proud about locally as well.

Hallandale Beach Mayor Joy Cooper, left, and Commissioners Bill Julian and Michele Lazarow took part in the yearly event.

This was not only a day where our politics of today was in the spotlight, but also the memory of what Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. did to make this a better place to work and live.

It was the perfect

storm of celebration on Monday as the racial equality that Dr. King preached about during his young life saw two worlds come together – with so much to be optimistic about.

Long awaited Northeast drainage project to start HALLANDALE BEACH - Tuesday night the city held a pre-construction meeting in preparation for the NE Drainage Project.

The contractor will be mobilizing starting February 1st and working over the next year installing injection wells, new drainage pipes on various roadways and a new 16 inch sewer main on 14th Avenue. Staff reviewed the project and its main components. All property impacted by the work will be restored. The project will also include tree removal and replacement in some areas. The majority of these trees are palms that will be preserved, transplanted and or replaced.

Staff will be working with the contractor on traffic mitigation throughout the area. 14th Avenue will need to be reduced to one lane for the work on 14th and other side streets will also be impacted. All condominiums will still have access. Residential drives and swales will be restored to pre-construction with the same materials.

The project is projected to be completed December 2013.

It is important for residents to know that the temporary pumping system will remain in place until after the permanent project is complete. This will assure property owners will not be left without a system during the 2013 hurricane season. After the project is complete the city will make the one way street improvement permanent on 8th and 10th Avenues and install sidewalks and bus shelters

CITY REACHES OUT TO ADDRESS NEIGHBORS OF MURDER VICTIMS This past Tuesday our Chief of Police, Dwayne Flournoy addressed concerns about the ongoing investigation of the murders that took place on Three Islands. I extend my deepest sympathy to the family, friends and neighbors of David “Donny” Pichosky and Rochelle Wise. The neighborhood was shocked and still in fear from the incident. Police are still working this investigation and were at the location as recently as Tuesday morning reviewing the crime scene and following solid leads.

While there were no further crime details released, the meeting was an opportunity to reassure our community that our city is very safe and crime rates are actually down.

At the meeting we even learned the biggest crime trend in the area is fraud against consumers. The chief also committed to working with Venetian Park Association to evalu-

ate their property for crime prevention measures to enhance safety.

The Chief also made everyone aware that while there is an investigation there will not be information released unless it is vital to public safety. As I wrote last week, the message was” If you see something, say something.

CITY COMMISSION VISIONING RETREAT The new commission met from 9 – 5 on Tuesday to share our vision and goals for our community. It was a good and productive meeting facilitated by Doug Williams a business consultant that works with both corporations and governments.

Mr. Williams met individually with each commissioner last week in preparation for the retreat to gather input on what each of our individual concerns are.

After all was completed we all shared many of the same priorities; infrastructure investments including beach hardening and renourishment, complete streets citywide that include sidewalks, lighting, bike lanes, completion of a bus shelter plan, quality redevelopment that includes green codes, traffic mitigation and community benefits, the completion of the Foster Road Gateway Project, wastewater projects to include addressing our infiltration/ in flow problems, water sustainability, recycling and continued focus on expediting permitting and business friendly ap-

proaches to our fee structures.

The work product will be finalized in a formal document and then reviewed by the City Manager for implementation steps or further input on priorities.

Priorities will be dependent on costs and types of projects needed to meet the Commission goals.

The Commission did take action to move all regular commission meetings to 6 PM. There will still be a presentation of the Students of the Month and school report the First Wednesday of every month at 1 pm. There will be no Public Participation at 1 PM the first Wednesday or other general business.

The Commission also agreed to focus on Code Enforcement with equal and consistent policies for all areas. This goal will fit into addressing blight. We will remain sensitive to economically challenged property owners, but not take months to correct blight. Current policy provides first for a warning. If action steps are not taken, the next step is for the property to receive a citation. At that time the owner must take steps to address the deficiency. If steps are not taken the property will go to the Magistrate. The city will look to the CRA to review current neighborhood and business improvement grants and loan programs to reach these goals.

The Commission also agreed that we want to finalize the next steps in our Master Park Plan and keep on a path to prepare

for a Revenue Bond Referendum that will go to a vote in 2014. The Commissioners all agree that these investments will be better accepted once more parks are completed. To date we have completed Foster Park.

Joe Scavo, BF James and South Beach are going out to bid in February.

The Citywide Master Plan was developed over 5 years ago through input of our residents and is a blue print of our future development. Its main vision incorporates the preservation of existing single family neighborhoods with focused redevelopment on our corridors. The next steps are to implement codes, densities, heights and building standards to direct quality development. It was agreed that a workshop will be scheduled with the new Development Service Director who is in the process of

analyzing the numerous overlay and zoning districts.

The Commission is moving forward with a new sense of teamwork and cohesiveness. While we are different and do not agree 100% on all the specifics, it was great to work and reach consensus on the super majority of our goals.

Save the date-------February 12, 2013 the Hallandale Symphonic Pops Orchestra will be holding the 3rd Concert in this year’s series. The venue is "Sport of Kings Theater" at Gulfstream Park. The time is 7:30 pm. The guest artists for this concert are The University of Miami Frost School of Music Vocal Jazz Ensemble. Tickets are $32.00.

Leading From Page 1A of ourselves….let’s start at the Beginning!

In 1995, two women, the late Barbara Krongold and Mary Ortman gathered a group of their friends, mostly of show business backgrounds, to meet and establish a new social organization. Candi Casino was in attendance. Being in business with her husband, Don Casino she was a full-time booker for the cruise lines, allowing her not much time for “lunching”. However, she suggested that this group work as a charity for a worthwhile cause; that being the TRANSPLANT FOUNDATION in Miami, Florida, affiliated with the University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Medical Center.

The idea was unanimously and enthusiastically accepted, chartered and named.

Since its inception, this charity has directed its efforts toward providing urgently needed assistance for transplant patients such as temporary housing, and various ancillary support services Today LEADING LADIES, INC. can proudly boast of having raised over ONE AND A QUARTER MILLION DOLLARS in the past 18 years. And it has been done through a dedicated and resourceful Board of Directors and a membership of over 350. This group of dynamic ladies and their gentlemen has parlayed all efforts into financial gains through events such as luncheons, dinners, raffles, and auctions at fine establishments. The monies raised are presented to Eli Compton, Executive Director of the Foundation, and mother of pro-golfer, Eric Compton, twice a heart transplant recipient.

Dr. Andreas Tzakis, Dr. George Burke, Dr. Si Pham, world renowned transplant surgeons have taken time from their enormous schedules to offer gratitude and praise for Leading Ladies. Guest speakers who have undergone the phenomenon of transplantation; organ donors, and family members who have lost a loved one; all at one time or another

have taken the stages to relate their experiences, and this charity has reciprocated in kind.

The highlight of these affairs is always fantastic entertainment provided by Don Casino Productions. Fabulous talents have donated their time to perform at the events; the likes of The Osmonds, The Four Aces, John Davidson, JoAnn Worley, Peter Marshall, Charlie Callas, Freddie Roman, Mal Z. Lawrence, Norm Crosby, Don Cornell, Donna Theodore of Broadway, Dick Capri, Sal Richards, Sarge, Steve Solomon, Lenny Rush.

Leading Ladies professionals who have done their shows include: Judy Scott, Holly Lipton, Josie O’Donnell, Ann Anello, Katie King, Diane King, Rodi Alexander, Iris Revson, Sharon Daniels, Jody Ebling, Phyllis Green, Claudia Genteel, Aelita, Robin Roth, Micki Marlowe, and the late Francesca and Ruth McMahon.

This may sound like a lot of fun and games, but there is much work to be done. The once little known procedure; the once phenom; has now become main stream and most hospitals are now extending their staffs to include Transplantation. The goal of Leading Ladies is to continue its tireless quest to make life easier for those facing this life-changing process.

On behalf of the following Board of Directors, public support is eagerly welcomed: Phyllis Green, President, Joan Klempner, Executive Vice President, Nancy Sutton, PastPresident and Coordi-

From Page 1A –––––––––––––––––––– ful period of time, not the root canal procedure itself.

WHAT IS DENTAL PULP? The pulp or pulp chamber is the soft area within the center of the tooth. The tooth's nerve lies within root canals, which lie within the roots or "legs" of the tooth.

The root canals travel from the tip of the tooth's root into the pulp chamber, which also contains blood vessels and connective tissue that nourish the tooth.

A tooth's nerve is not vitally important to a tooth's health and function after the tooth has emerged through the gums. Its only function is sensory -- to provide the sensation of hot or cold.

The presence or absence of a nerve will not affect the day-to-day functioning of the tooth.

WHY DOES THE PULP NEED TO BE REMOVED? When nerve tissue or pulp is damaged, it breaks down and bacteria begin to multiply within the pulp chamber.

The bacteria and other decayed debris can cause an infection or abscessed tooth. An abscess is a pus-filled pocket that forms at the end of the roots of the tooth. An abscess occurs when the infection spreads all the way past the ends of the roots of the tooth. In addition to an abscess, an infection in the root canal of a tooth can cause: • Swelling that may spread to other areas of the face, neck, or head.

• Bone loss around the tip of the root • Drainage problems extending outward from the root. A hole can occur through the side of the tooth with drainage into the gums or through the cheek

What you need to know about root canal

with drainage into the skin.

WHAT DAMAGES A TOOTH'S NERVE AND PULP IN THE FIRST PLACE? A tooth's nerve and pulp can become irritated, inflamed, and infected due to deep decay, repeated dental procedures on a tooth and/or large fillings, a crack or chip in the tooth, or trauma to the face.

WHAT ARE THE SIGNS THAT A ROOT CANAL IS NEEDED? Signs you may need a root canal include: • Severe toothache pain upon chewing or application of pressure.

• Prolonged sensitivity/pain to heat or cold temperatures (after the hot or cold has been removed).

• Discoloration (a darkening) of the tooth.

• Swelling and tenderness in the nearby gums.

• A persistent or recurring pimple on the gums.

• Sometimes no symptoms are present.

THE ROOT CANAL PROCEDURE The root canal procedure requires one or more office visits and can be performed by a dentist or endodontist.

An endodontist is a dentist who specializes in the causes, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases and injuries of the human dental pulp or the nerve

of the tooth. The choice of which type of dentist to use depends to some degree on the difficulty of the root canal procedure needed in your particular tooth and the general dentist's comfort level in working on your tooth. Your dentist will discuss who might be best suited to perform the work in your particular case.

The first step in the procedure is to take an X-ray to see the shape of the root canals and determine if there are any signs of infection in the surrounding bone.

Your dentist or endodontist will then use local anesthesia to numb the area near the tooth. Actually, anesthesia may not be necessary, since the nerve is dead, but most dentists still anesthetize the area to make the patient more relaxed and at ease.

Next, to keep the area dry and free of saliva during treatment, your dentist will place a rubber dam (a sheet of rubber) around the tooth.

An access hole will then be drilled into the tooth.

The pulp along with bacteria, the decayed nerve tissue and related debris is removed from the tooth. The cleaning out process is accomplished using root canal files. A series of these files of increasing diameter are each subsequently placed into the access hole and worked down the full length of the tooth to scrape and scrub the sides of the root canals. Water or sodium hypochlorite is used periodically to flush away the debris.

Once the tooth is thoroughly cleaned, it needs to be sealed. Some dentists like to wait a week before sealing the tooth.

For instance, if there is an infection, your dentist may put a medication inside the tooth to clear it

TEAM BOBADILLA

up. Others may choose to seal the tooth the same day it is cleaned out. If the root canal is not completed on the same day, a temporary filling is placed in the exterior hole in the tooth to keep contaminants out between appointments.

At the next appointment, to fill the interior of the tooth, a sealer paste and a rubber compound called gutta percha is placed into the tooth's root canal. To fill the exterior access hole created at the beginning of treatment, a filling is placed.

The final step may involve further restoration of the tooth. Because a tooth that needs a root canal often is one that has a large filling or extensive decay or other weakness, a crown, crown and post, or other restoration often needs to be placed on the tooth to protect it, prevent it from breaking and restore it to full function. Your dentist will discuss the need for any additional dental work with you.

WHAT SHOULD ONE EXPECT AFTER THE ROOT CANAL? The root canal procedure should relieve the pain you feel. Until your root canal procedure is completely finished -that is to say, the permanent filling is in place and/or the crown is place, it's wise to minimize chewing on the tooth under repair. This step will help avoid recontamination of the interior of the tooth and also may prevent a fragile tooth from breaking

before the tooth can be fully restored. For the first few days following the completion of treatment, the tooth may feel sensitive due to natural tissue inflammation, especially if there was pain or infection before the procedure. This sensitivity or discomfort usually can be controlled with over-the-counter pain medications such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) or naproxen (Aleve).

Most patients can return to their normal activities the next day.

As far as oral health care is concerned, brush and floss as you regularly would and see your dentist at normally scheduled intervals. Because the final step of the root canal procedure is application of a restoration such as a crown or a filling, it will not be obvious to onlookers that a root canal was performed.

Root canal treatment is highly successful; the procedure has more than a 95% success rate. Many teeth fixed with a root canal can last a lifetime.

ALTERNATIVES TO A ROOT CANAL

Saving your natural teeth is the very best option, if possible. Your natural teeth allow you to eat a wide variety of foods necessary to maintain proper nutrition. The root canal procedure is the treatment of choice.

The only alternative to a root canal procedure is having the tooth extracted and replaced with a bridge, implant, or removable partial denture to restore chewing function and prevent adjacent teeth from shifting. These alternatives not only are more expensive than a root canal procedure but require more treatment time and additional procedures to adjacent teeth and supporting tissues.

Since some of the reasons why the nerve of a tooth and its pulp become inflamed and infected are due to deep decay, repeated dental procedures on a tooth and/or large fillings, following good oral hygiene practices (brushing twice a day, flossing at least once a day, and scheduling regular dental visits) may reduce the need for a root canal procedure.

Trauma resulting from a sports-related injury can be reduced by wearing a mouth guard.

Call us today! To find out if you are a candidate for this kind of procedure!

Mount Sinai Medical Center Hosts 11th Annual International Alzheimer’s Symposium

MIAMI BEACH - Medical experts from around the world gathered to discuss the latest breakthroughs in Alzheimer’s disease diagnosis and treatment during the 11th Annual Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) Symposium, hosted by The Wien Center for Alzheimer’s Disease and Memory Disorders at Mount Sinai Medical Center. The symposium, held on January 19th and 20th at the Miami Beach Resort and Spa, provided a forum for new information and in-depth discussions about upcoming clinical trials and advances in research related to the clinical diagnosis and progression of Alzheimer’s disease.

This symposium is especially significant as current clinical research to find a cure for Alzheimer’s focuses on patients with MCI. People with MCI have more memory problems than others their age, but their symptoms are not as severe as the symptoms seen in people with Alzheimer’s disease. However, patients with MCI have a greater potential of developing Alzheimer’s. The earliest possible diagnosis can lead to pharmacological treatment and non-pharmacological interventions to slow the progression of the disease.

Twenty-five distinguished neurological experts from areas around the world – including Sweden, Australia and Netherlands, as well as U.S. cities such as Miami, Chicago, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, St. Louis, Dr. Ranjan Duara of Mount Sinai presents Marilyn Girsh with a plaque at Phoenix, Boston, Philadelphia, Berkeley, Atlanta and more – prethe 11th annual MCI Symposium. Girsh’s generosity and support ensured sented the latest information on the earliest stages of cognitive dethat the symposium will continue for the next 20 years. cline. In addition, the symposium featured keynote speeches by two distinguished experts. Todd Golde, M.D., PhD, director of the University of Florida’s Center for Translational Research in Neurodegenerative Disease, delivered a presentation titled, “Solving the Dilemma of Treatment Versus Prevention Strategies for Alzheimer’s Disease.”

Eric Reiman, M.D., executive director of the Banner Alzheimer’s Institute, addressed “Launching the Era of Alzheimer’s Prevention Research”.

This year’s event also featured the 2nd Annual Early Alzheimer’s Diagnostic and Treatment Workshop, which explored how newly developed diagnostic tests can be used successfully in the early diagnosis and treatment of Alzheimer’s. The symposium also included the 1st Annual MCI Public Education Forum, which gave members of the community the opportunity to interact in a panel discussion with medical experts.

The MCI Symposium began in 2003 under the direction of Ranjan Duara, M.D., medical director of the Wien Center. Thanks to the generosity of Marilyn “Lynn” Girsh, the Wien Center will receive financial support to continue the symposium for the next 20 years.

“I was very impressed with the work that Dr. Duara is doing at the Wien Center,” said Girsh.

“And I especially appreciated the idea of an international symposium bringing researchers together to share their findings and discuss new ideas on treating Alzheimer’s. If there is any possibility of finding a cure, I would like to do what I can to help.”

Unless new treatment options are found to prevent Alzheimer’s or delay its onset, it is projected that 13 million people in the U.S. will have the disease by 2050. Since the development of criteria for Alzheimer’s 25 years ago, major advances in understanding of the biology and early clinical features of the disease have led to improvement in clinical assessments.

“Our goal is to continue hosting the symposium to help researchers gain a greater underDr. Ranjan Duara, Medical Director of Mount standing of Alzheimer’s and eventually discover new treatment options that will delay, prevent Sinai’s Wien Center for Alzheimer’s Disease, welor cure the disease,” Dr. Duara said. comes guests to the 11th Annual MCI Symposium

struggle for equality, Monday was a true celebration. One that brought everyone together to watch, with plenty of hope, that President Obama’s second and final term would signal change and a shift in direction in an economy that has really taken a long time to dig out from.

The opportunity to mix the two events was what makes this a special time. Whether you chose to watch the inaugural from start to finish from the comfort of your home, or got out and honored Dr. King’s mem-

ory, this was the time to show that American spirit.

For me, it was watching some of the early inauguration events and then off to one of the best MLK celebration events held anywhere in Hallandale Beach.

There are some great community events that take place each year throughout South Florida – with so many educational seminars and other important things – but if you never attended an MLK day in Hallandale Beach, you simply have never watched community spirit at work.

Businesses and city officials come together for a day-long tribute to one

Celebrating 100 wonderful years!

Beatrice Singer of Hallandale, Beach, formerly of Walden New York, will celebrate her 100th birthday January 28 in Hallandale. Bea is a woman of beauty, wisdom and strength. She is known for her smile, friendly phone calls, and love for life. Her weeks are filled with hair salon appointments, lunch and dinner dates. They key to her longevity is taking each day as it comes, always saving room for dessert, and keeping friends and family close to heart.

of the most important people in history. This year, there was a little bit of an extra flair to the celebration with the inauguration taking place.

“I have been here four straight years,” said Aloise Campbell, who watched her daughter take part in the parade, which is usually the centerpiece of the celebration. “We love it because it is something that is very important in our community.”

Campbell was certainly not alone. Mayor Joy Cooper walked the entire parade route with her heels on. She gave away candy to the kids and plenty of waves, hugs and smiles to the residents of her city.

Vice Mayor Alex Lewy was there along with Commissioners Bill Julian, Anthony Sanders and Michele Lazarow, who was taking part in her first parade as an elected official.

As the parade worked its way from Johnson Park to Hallandale Beach Blvd., the floats, elected officials, city employees and marching bands were greeted by hundreds of onlookers who were simply having the best time.

“Never been to this parade before, but I will be back,” said West Park resident Candace Moore.

“This was a very big parade with a lot to offer. I never, ever thought Hallandale Beach had something like this.”

What I tell everyone each year is that if you are going to attend two community parades, the MLK event in Hallandale Beach is a must along with Hollywood’s highlysuccessful Candy Cane

Parade in December.

Both are signature cityoriented functions that bring this entire community together.

For Boyd Anderson band parent Alex Ramirez, the opportunity to watch her daughter take part in something so meaningful is exactly what brought the entire family down from Lauderdale Lakes.

“We have a Fort Lauderdale celebration that is always good, but I was really surprised by the amount of floats and other things in this parade,” Ramirez said.

“This was one of the best parades I have watched.

Well organized and plenty of people.”

From police and fire rescue to just about every church and organization in Hallandale Beach, taking part is what it’s all about. The spotlight also helps as

local businesses that never get the attention, are suddenly thrust into the background for such a great community event.

“The thing that continues to amaze me is the way our businesses and residents on the west side of this community seem to rally when the spotlight is shining in their direction,” said Commissioner Julian.

“Spending so much of my time over here, you know that whatever the event, this is a group of people

Page 9A

who are thankful for the chance to have so many people come and see for themselves.”

As the over hour long parade headed back to Johnson Park – where so many activities were planned for the day - residents, city officials and businesses were thrilled to be a part of a historic day.”

‘Wicked’ Broadway’s most memorable musical returns to the Au-Rene Stage at Broward Center

SPOTLIGHT ON STAGE

Long before Dorothy, there were two other girls who met in the land of Oz. One was born with emerald skin, is smart, fiery, but misunderstood. The other was beautiful, ambitious and very popular. Find out how these two: Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda, the Good Witch, make for the most spell-binding musical.

When it comes to musical theatre, “Wicked,” is a clever, whiz-banging prequel to “The Wizard of Oz,” which recasts the Wicked Witch of the West as something closer to a misunderstood hero and Glinda, the Good Witch as a flighty, spoiled girl.

“Wicked’s songs contain some of the greatest melodies and smart sophisticated lyrics. There are plenty of songs to make the most of the superb performers with vocal talents. The musical unfolds as a flashback that shows the unlikely friendship between the not-so-good Elphaba, whose wickedness is the result of shattered idealism and Glinda, the other supposedly good witch.

Follow the yellow brick road to the Broward Center from January 30th to February 17th, 2013, located

at 201 Southwest Fifth Avenue, Fort Lauderdale. Tickets are $34.50 to $139.50.

Showtimes vary. For information, call: (954) 462-0222. Or visit online: www.browardcenter.org.

She is the one responsible for all the commentary between the plays, always ending with “And Then I Wrote.”

HOW IT WORKS If you have ever held two magnets in your hands, tried to force them together, and felt a resistance between them, then you have experienced a magnetic field. PEMF stands for Pulsed ElectroMagnetic Fields, which are widely used these days to improve circulation and cell metabolism.

The body can become accustomed to nonmoving (or static) magnetic fields, which are generally unable to deeply penetrate the body. A pulsed electromagnetic field, however, is quite dynamic, is able to penetrate all the way through the body, and creates a cascade of effects within the body. The MAP PEMF Therapy uses moving magnets creating an energy wave which

you are better.

The cost is far less than surgery, and patients avoid the long recovery times and possible side effects associated with surgery.

Dr. OZ talks about PEMF therapy

Dr. OZ introduces a breakthrough way to heal pain using Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields. Also known as PEMF therapy, this method of healing has been widely used in Switzerland for over 15 years. It’s a technology that had been developed for the Russian Space program to help prohibit the bone loss that the cosmonauts suffered when they were in space and away from the earths magnetic fields. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iL1_U1rZig&feature=plcp

changes the way your body copes with pain. The electrical magnets affect the nerve cells which are electrical cells and the magnetic fields affect how the nerves fire and quiet them down without using drugs increasing circulation in the area and aid the healing. Inside the

MAP there are electrical coils, and when electricity passes through there it creates a magnetic field that moves through the body whispering at 75 trillion cells in your body going deep into your body where sports creams and heating pads could never reach such as your spine.

INTRODUCING THE JOINT AND MUSCLE TREATMENT CENTER AVOID SURGERY AND END PAIN If you have been told you need surgery or have chronic pain, we can help!

Avoid Pain and Joint Replacement Surgery With Revolutionary Pro Biofeedback MicroCurrent Treatment - No Drugs, No Surgery, No Pain Patient Benefits: • Greatly Speed the healing process • Reduce or eradicate Chronic and Acute Pain • Chronic and Acute Low Back, Hip, Knee and Neck Pain or deficiencies • Avoid Joint Replacement Surgery • Orthopedic Injuries • Fibromyalgia • Myofascial Pain • Tendon and Ligament repair • Reduces swelling and inflammation • Releases muscle trigger points • Improves soft tissue regeneration Electro Muscle Stimulation changes muscle tissue, softens or eradicates scar tissue, and increases circulation with the effect of removing long stored waste products and increasing cellular metabolism.

The Pro Biofeedback MicroCurrent Technology uses micro impulses, which induce neuropeptides secretion by primarily C nerve fibers that have profound and wideranging effects, triggering complex regulative chains and cascades.

Multiple biochemical pathways utilizing many types of neuro-mediators, hormones, and cytokines are involved. Although peptide half-life in body fluids is relatively short, other mediators in the cascades survive for many hours. Some regulatory peptides act on genomic activity to alter gene expression and change biochemical synthesis. Our device’s electrical signals can reprogram tissues locked into chronic vegetative and dysfunctional states by inducing bolus synthesis of regulatory peptides (RP).

On a neurological level, widely dispersed un-meylienated C-fibers compromising 85 percent of all nerve fibers are effected locally by the Pro Biofeedback MicroCurrent Technology signal. C-fibers are responsible for slow diffuse pain signaling and are also neuro-secretory. Neuropeptides (NPs) are secreted into the surrounding tissue milieu by their exocytosis through vesicle membrane fusion with the cell membrane similar to neuro-transmitter secretion.

The Pro Biofeedback MicroCurrent Technology impulses also are relayed through afferent neural pathways to the CNS and give rise to various 1) Segmental spinal reflexes by efferent signals sent from the cord to organs associated with that segment or back to the local tissue receiving the impulse.

2) Systemic reactions such as endorphin induction by efferent signals descending from the cortical and subcortical areas of the brain i.e. pain reduction.

The Pro Biofeedback MicroCurrent Technology impulses have a direct effect on blood perfusion. Clinically observable and well-defined increases in tissue perfusion at the treated areas are due to neuropeptide-induced vasodilatation, particularly Substance P. A combination of device-induced axon reflexes also releases other vaso-active substances such as kinins, prostaglandins, cytokines, and nitric oxide. The end result is that blood flow to a treated area is significantly increased. Other neuropeptides and endocrine secretions released by device’s impulses mediate inflammation. Complement fixation and tissue injuries due to immune aggression are suppressed, and cellular immunity is enhanced by macrophage proliferation, activation, chemotaxis, and clearance of extracellular debris.

The Pro Biofeedback MicroCurrent Technology has redefined existing technology with novel waveforms, unique circuitry, and clean signaling. Signaling is focused and intensified for narrow applications or is expanded with unique signaling combinations and frequency ranges for increased therapeutic flexibility. Compared with the earlier Russian electro-stimulation devices, The Pro Biofeedback MicroCurrent Technology generates clean and more precisely defined wave forms and possesses both newer (patent pending) settings that expand clinical versatility and vastly improved operational reliability.

The Pro Bio-feedback technology is proven to be convenient, safe, and effective and has been cleared by the FDA and other governing bodies for pain relief.

LOCAL SENIORS AT HIGH RISK FROM WIDESPREAD FLU OUTBREAK Local Families battle back with 'Fight-TheFlu Kits' and caregivers for the elderly

This vicious flu epidemic has threatened local seniors and now their families are fighting back with “Fight the Flu Kits” and caregivers to protect their elderly loved ones. Weaker immune systems make seniors more vulnerable to the flu and that’s why 90% of all flu-related deaths and more than half of flu-related hospitalizations occur in people age 65 or older.

That’s why Visiting Angels, one of the nation’s largest in-home senior care companies, with a center in our area, is helping local families in two ways: 1) Assembling Visiting Angels "Fight The Flu Kit" - so seniors protect themselves from the flu.

2) Offering In-home Senior Flu Service Caregivers help sanitize

seniors’ homes and run errands for seniors (ie. grocery store) so they’re not exposed to the flu, take seniors to get their flu shot and care for seniors and take them to the doctor if they have the flu.

“This flu can be deadly for seniors because they can develop pneumonia and other respiratory illnesses, so families have to be especially vigilant with their elderly loved ones,” says Larry Meigs, President and CEO of Visiting Angels, one of our nation’s largest inhome care companies with a center in our area. “Our flu kits help seniors protect themselves from the flu. Our caregivers run errands so seniors don’t go out and get exposed to the virus especially in high exposure areas such as

the grocery store or the mall. Plus, we help sanitize the seniors’ homes to keep them as germfree as possible. Our kits and caregivers are especially helpful for people who don’t live near their elderly loved ones and want someone to protect their seniors and watch over them if they get sick and need help recovering.”

VISITING ANGELS FIGHT THE FLU KITS Visiting Angels “Fight The Flu Kits” include: (items available at most retail stores) • Paper towels – encourage seniors to use paper towels in the bathroom instead of hand towels, which can harbor germs.

• The Medisim TempleTouch™ thermometer – if seniors have a fever

higher than 102 degrees, that could indicate they have the flu.

• Vitamin C or little boxes of orange juice – helps build seniors’ weaker immune systems.

• Pocket-size hand sanitizer, with aloe – helps keep seniors’ skin germfree without drying out their sensitive skin.

• Pens – seniors should always have their own pen handy – pens shared in public areas carry a ton of germs.

• Lysol spray – reminder for seniors to spray doorknobs, handles, and light switches, etc... at least once a week – viruses can live up to 48 hours on plastic and stainless steel surfaces.

• Hand soap - recent studies show plain soap and water works just as

Preventing Prescription Drug Abuse

(NewsUSA) - For teens, peer pressure or wanting to escape emotional stress can often lead to prescription drug experimentation, which in turn can lead to abuse, addiction and sometimes a drug overdose.

According to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health, 70 percent of children age 12 and older say they got prescription drugs, not from a drug dealer, but from a friend or relative.

"Each day, more than 2,000 teens begin abusing prescription medications, believing that doctor-prescribed medicine is safer to experiment with than illegal drugs," says Steve Pasierb, president and CEO of The Partnership at Drugfree.org. "Parents and grandparents take great pains to prevent poisoning in young children by keeping household chemicals out of the reach," according to Pasierb.

"The same approach needs to be taken to safeguard medications in the home."

The first step is to get informed about the dangers and knowhow to intervene. The website www.RxSafetyMatters.org provides information to parents and community groups on how to prevent prescription drug abuse.

Tips for parents include: * Learn to recognize the signs of abuse. Warning signs include sudden mood swings, changes in social circles, secretive behavior, excessive sleeping and a loss of interest in appearance or hobbies. Symptoms often occur in clusters. * Monitor your medications. Keep a detailed record of which prescription drugs you have in your home and the remaining number of pills. Store your medications in a secure location. If you have medications that you no longer need or have expired, dispose of them properly. * Educate others. Talk to your relatives, neighbors and other parents in households where your children spend time. Grandparents' homes are frequently a source of pills, simply because older people take more medications. Talk to the PTA at your teen's school, and encourage others to take preventive steps to prevent prescription drug abuse. * Talk to your children, and listen for clues. Make sure your children understand the dangers of misusing prescription medications -- but avoid providing information about which drugs are popular to abuse. Listen to your kids, and always ask these questions: "Who are they meeting, what will they be doing, and where will they be?"

To learn more about how to prevent prescription drug abuse, download the free "Parents Guide to Understanding Prescription Drug Abuse" at www.RxSafetyMatters.org. Purdue Pharma L.P. developed www.RxSafetyMatters.org as a public service to help combat prescription drug abuse.

well, if not better, than antibacterial soaps.

• Cold Vs. Flu Tip Sheet Here – This hand-out explains the difference between the cold and flu.

• Hand sanitizer wipes – these are handy to have on-the-go, whether to clean hands or public surfaces. Don’t rely on just baby wipes because they do not contain the proper ingredients to kill viruses and germs.

“Often seniors don’t think of themselves as elderly, ignore health warnings and resent loved ones ‘telling them what to do’,” adds Meigs. “Our caregivers can help nudge a senior to get protection from the flu and to get the help they need if they get the virus.”

VISITING ANGELS FIGHT THE FLU TIPS FOR SENIORS • Get the flu shot because it’s free and covered by Medicare.

People 65 and older have two flu shots available to choose from – a regular dose vaccine and a newer higher dose flu vaccine that results in a stronger immune response. Seniors should talk to their doctors to see if they’re a good fit for this vaccine.

• Shorten the duration of symptoms by getting an anti viral medication within 48 hours.

HOW TO TELL THIS STORY Interview local caregivers and family members assembling Visiting Angels "Fight The Flu Kits.” Talk with local senior care experts and caregivers about how to sanitize a home for seniors. Talk to families helping seniors fight the flu!

ABOUT VISITING ANGELS LIVING ASSISTANCE SERVICES Visiting Angels was established in 1991 in Baltimore as an independent agency caring for seniors in their

homes. Today, Visiting Angels has more than 440 private duty agencies throughout the United States. Visiting Angels agencies employ only experienced caregivers and conduct the most comprehensive background screenings to ensure that their caregivers meet or exceed the company’s high standards.

The Peninsula Brings Sign Language & Features to Serve Hearing-Impaired Senior Residents HOLLYWOOD - Recognizing a vital need, The Peninsula, an assisted living community in Hollywood, is serving deaf residents by adapting residences and instituting a series of American Sign Language (ASL) classes for their employees and residents.

They plan to make these classes available to seniors and caregivers from the outside community starting in February. Classes teach the alphabet, numbers, daily conversation topics, greeting and Deaf culture.

“This sensitivity training and basic ASL is so vital to enabling deaf, hard of hearing and late deafened senior adults the ability continue to maintain a sense of dignity while enhancing their well-

being and improve the quality of their lives,” said Jonathan Sperber, executive director for The Peninsula.

The community has been working with Andrew Altmann, a consultant with Deaf Talk, LLC, who was formerly an instructor with the Center for Hearing and Communications to offer the appropriate resources. Altmann has more than10 years of experience teaching ASL while mentoring and tutoring interpreters.

As needed, within residential apartments visual fire alarms and doorbells are installed.

Telephones within residences have been prewired for DSL service and should someone wish to use a computer within their apartment this can be accommodated. Also,

in the community’s communication center special computer software has been installed which enables residents to video conference with whomever they wish and computer assistance is available.

“Many of the services provided to all residents at The Peninsula are geared to serve someone who is deaf as well,” explained Sperber.

“There is periodic monitoring throughout the day and residents can be escorted to meals and activities. A daily calendar of events is visually posted in varied locations and verbally is explained to residents. But it’s essential that staff has the sensitivity and understanding of our deaf residents.”

The Peninsula has a spa-

Top 5 hot food trends for 2013

(BPT) - Grab your fork and knife. Amateur and professional foodies alike highly anticipate the newest food trends, and 2013 will not disappoint.

Throughout the country, restaurants and home cooks are utilizing their creativity to make food that satisfies the palate and leaves a lasting impression.

Indulge your passion for food and drink with the top food trends of 2013, found at many of the 33 destinations participating in California Restaurant Month, a special month-long event in January that offers travelers gourmet prixfixe menus, wine-pairing opportunities and more.

Here are the top trends you'll see emerge this year: Trend 1: Wine experimentation When you visit a restaurant in 2013, don't be surprised if you see wine flights on the menu, which allow patrons to sample different wines and find new varietals they enjoy. "From pouring a flight of the same varietal from three different regions, to grouping wines by style, such as robust reds, flights encourage diners to experi-

ment and try different wine and food combinations," explains Nancy Light of the Wine Institute.

What wines will be popular in 2013? Light says that the top three California varietals - chardonnay, cabernet sauvignon and pinot noir - will continue to be the best-selling wines. Moscato and red blends - i.e. zinfandel and petite sirah combined with cabernet or merlot - will be hot in the new year.

forager group Shiitake Happens to get the freshest mushrooms for their recipes.

Trend 2: Food foraging flourishes Food foraging is set to hit its stride in 2013, meaning finding foods that are growing organically in nature and then using them in your cooking. Things like wild edible plants, berries, nuts and of course mushrooms are the most popular items foraged from the wild.

Restaurants are embracing this trend and using foraged ingredients at the peak of freshness, offering guests new flavors along with an interesting back-story about their dish. For example, Chef Tin Vuong of Abigaile restaurant in Hermosa Beach, Calif., partners with a local food

Trend 3: The reinvention of the burger Did you know the cheeseburger was born in Pasadena, Calif., and every year the city hosts a special Cheeseburger Week that attracts travelers from around the world? In 2013, the burger is getting reinvented and can be found on menus from casual diners to gourmet eateries throughout the country.

In 2013 take a fresh look at your burger and be creative with toppings and seasoning.

Pasadena's Umami Burger restaurant takes toppings to the limit: shiitake mushrooms, caramelized onions,

roasted tomatoes and parmesan crisp make for a burger that's anything but boring. Another example is Slater's 50/50, which reinvents the burger from the inside out with a mix of half ground beef and half ground bacon.

Trend 4: Olive oil is king Two reasons make extra virgin olive oil the oil of choice for 2013 it's versatile and healthier. How is olive oil different than other oils?

"Nutritional quality for one," says Theo Stephan, olive oil expert for Global Gardens.

"Polyphenols are found in olive oil which translates to antioxidants.

Extra virgin olive oil is a monounsaturated fat; 'fat' is actually necessary in our diets if we are going to maintain proper organ

health and keep our weight stable."

She suggests when dining out to ask for extra virgin olive oil as a butter substitute. For the home cook, extra virgin olive oil can be used in just about any kind of cooking.

Consider shopping online or going to a specialty store to sample different varieties - many options at regular grocery stores- are altered or have high levels of acidity, making them not truly extra virgin.

Wangard of Marisol at the Cliffs Resort in Pismo Beach, Calif. "With that comes a lot of seasonality in products throughout the course of the year."

In 2013, more people will utilize farmers markets and restaurants will make efforts to source from local suppliers, which means rapidly changing menus for diners. "Right now, we work with around 30 different farmers, local fishermen and ranchers. The menu is updated about every two weeks and is reflective of what we get from these local suppliers," notes Wangard.

Trend 5: Farm to table grows "Farm to table basically means you're dealing with farmers, fishermen or ranchers you know and are using their products in your style of food," says Chef Gregg
