MARCO Grand Rounds for December 8, 2013

From Warren, KD4GUA:     

This Sunday by request, (Jerry N4TSC) we will discuss the "Biologicals," a group of medicines which began to appear about ten years ago and which are now making a bigger and bigger splash (Epogen, Enbrel, Remicade, Herceptin etc.).

     Biological medicines are medical drugs produced using biotechnology--that is, therapeutic products created through the genetic manipulation of living cells or organisms.  They are complex and have a larger molecular weight than medicines produced chemically. 

 

MARCO Grand Rounds for December 1, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

This Sunday by request, we will talk about "Influenza."  Going back in history we find it fatally attacking the young (immunity not built up) and the old (immunity run down).  Two weeks ago in Tampa there was the death of a 26-year old mother who left two children--beware---it can strike close to home.  Everyone should have had their flu shots by now.......

     Everyone should have received their "Aether"....  It is also time to pay Danny your membership dues for the year which are due on Jan. 1.  CME Category II certificates will be sent out in January.

 

And remember what Confucius said, ""Viagra is like Disneyland...a one hour wait for a 2-minute ride.

MARCO Grand Rounds for November 24, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

This Sunday we will discuss "THE PROS AND CONS OF ROBOTIC SURGERY."  In 2000 there were only 1,000 robotic surgeries world-wide.  Last year there were half a million...is there an arms race by hospitals eager to attract new patient by using ROBOTS?  OR are they really that good?

 

Tune in should be fun....

MARCO Grand Rounds for November 17, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

     This week we will comment on the new guidelines redefining statin use.  Actually this is not earth-shattering news as the press seems to think, since most of us treat individual patients as individual patients. However, it is a good subject which goes back to "should statins be sold over the counter?" and "should all diabetics be taking a statin?" 

      All one has to go back to is the proliferation of trans fats, saturated hydrogenated fats, being better as margerine than butter--now the table has turned, and butter is the hot baby.

NOTE: ARRL Phone Sweepstakes is this weekend, so it is best to occupy the frequency early and defend it aggressively.

MARCO Grand Rounds for November 9, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

DISEASE OF THE WEEK WEAK:  "Clostridium Difficile"  Tune in Sunday, and be sure to wash your hands for at least 20 seconds after the net with soap and water.  Lot of hype this week about resistant strains...When is Leprosy going to make a comeback?  Believe it or not I did pick up two cases when I was stationed in Key West in the Navy--One actually had the face of the MGM lion--anyone know the story of that MGM lion?  Very interesting--maybe we can talk about it.

MARCO Grand Rounds for November 2, 2013

From Warren, KD4GUA:

This Sunday we will discuss "ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE."   This condition is expected to affect one in every 85 persons by 2050 and there is no cure.  Early symptoms are usually  thought to be "age related concerns.  If you forget to tune in you should have.  Perhaps someone out there will have a good "supplemental cure?" (like rag-weed mustard.)  AND, if you're not on board Sunday, we know Y...

No Zoster cup cakes this week, only amyloid plaques--add your humor to a very sad mourning

MARCO Grand Rounds for October 27, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

We had 33 check-ins today with moderate mid-skip propagation.  This coming Sunday, by request, we will discuss "SCIATICA." 

Hi-lights of the Oct. 20th talk on "Herpes Zooster" were:  The Europeans are not immuninizing their children with chicken pox vaccine because they think that his prohibits re-vitalizing contacts of older adults with exposure to the actual disease.  Also, it was found there were more cases of shingles in the US since the immunization program was started here.   Also, you can give a child chickenpox by inoculating him with shingles pox sera but you cannot give the child zoster unless he previously had varicella.  One of our check-ins reported treating a farmer 4 times for shingles!  Supposedly only 1 in 25 will have just a second dose.  We all learn something even when we have a dumb subject!!!!

 

.........................and remember it is better to be over the hill than under it.....

MARCO Grand Rounds for October 18, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

This Sunday we will discuss a subject right from the horse's mouth--Herpes Zooster or "Shingles".  Pardon me as I scratch my right sided 3rd Lumbar dermatome.  I turned down the Zostavax 2007 vaccine because it had only a 50% reduction rate--now I wished I had taken it---Isn't that "MUrphy's Law?"  The vaccine is not cheap--runs around $170 at last check. 

You fellows with a good pain threshold  should be able to hold out without much difficulty--remember how to check your pain threshold?  Simply see how long you can go without blinking--if you can go over one minute you probably have a good pain threshold  but may end up with a dry cornea!  Try it and report your findings Sunday--a free "Zooster Cup Cake" for the leading Superman!

 

Hope the screaming episodes will be over by Sunday as I am now in my12th day.   Tune in should be FUN.

MARCO Grand Rounds for October 13, 2013

From Warren, KD4GUA:

Due to a series of malfunctions last Sunday, we had to postpone the lecture on "IS THERE A DOCTOR IN THE HOUSE?"  This an update and since not all the States have the same rules it was thought noteworthy to present the facts on just what you should do if in an emergency while traveling. 

 

     This came through and am putting it in small print as I can't turn it upside down....Pertaining to a Norwegian farmer in Minnesota....when he accidentally lost 50  cents in the outhouse, he immediately threw in his watch and billfold explaining, "I'm not going down dere yust for 50 cents."

 

Tune in, should be fun. 

MARCO Grand Rounds for October 6, 2013

From Warren, KD4GUA:

This Sunday we will discuss "IS THERE A DOCTOR IN THE HOUSE," an update on emergencies which may occur while you are traveling, such as "What does an orthopedist know about a heart attack in an airplane at 32,000 feet?"  (About as much as he knows about measles at ground level?)  It is an interesting subject for an update--Arnold WB6OJB, had some interesting experiences he shared previously.  Tune in should be fun.  

MARCO Grand Rounds for September 29, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

This Sunday we will by demand, discuss "Sarcoidosis."   This is an interesting and tantalizing problem--we don't see too much of it--but when we do it can be a delight in that the underlying lesion was not cancer.

     The October "AETHER" has been sent to all Officers and Directors (Harry EDP and Linda and Bernie's bounced due to apparent changes in their email addresses)  If anyone wishes to receive a pdf copy by email let me know, otherwise it will be in your mailbox in about ten days.

     Due to LOUSY propagation it has been suggested using radio+ echolink for Grand Rounds--if you are interested let me know--Skype is limited and Bruce thinks echolink would be a better alternative plus. 

     For the FIRST time since using 14.342MHz, we hit 40 check-ins Sunday.  

MARCO Grand Rounds for September 22, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

This Sunday we will discuss MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS and the newer drugs used to combat relapses...don't miss this one.  

MARCO Grand Rounds for September 8, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

   THIS SUNDAY we will discuss SARIN GAS.    If we have time PERIPHERAL NEUROPATHY will be brought up.  Both involve nerves and both are more or less prevalent in the papers or in our offices.

    Last week we talked about the HISTORY OF ANESTHESIA.  Those of you who missed it may read about it in the December Aether (not the next issue but the following one)

 

Question of the week....does beer contain female hormones?  Can heavy male beer drinkers turn into near females??? 

MARCO Grand Wounds for September 1, 2013

From Warren, KD4GUA:

This Sunday we will discuss "THE HISTORY OF ANESTHESIA." 

 

BASICALLY THERE were THREE TYPES OF ANESTHESIA.  First there was vocal anesthesia where you tell the patient "It won't hurt."  Then there was local anesthesia where you inject around the object with a numb--er."  Finally, there was "Bulgarian Anesthesia" where you hit the fellow on the head with a  hammer!  Vocal, Local and Bulgarian!

 

Just think about what it was like back during the Revolution when all they had was alcohol and vocal and Bulgarian types. 

 

Tune in, should be fun.....

MARCO Grand Rounds for August 18, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

     This Sunday we will resume our discussions, the subject being "CELIAC UPDATE."  Can a 50 year old man suddenly come down with Celiac disease?

      Those who heroically checked into the net the past two weeks when no medical discussion was held cannot receive Category II credit since no educational program was presented.  However, credit will resume this Sunday.

    While in Washington D.C. I found the capital quiet and tranquil as Congress was not in session and all the journalists had left town.   Visited Dulles Air Museum, the American Museum of American History and went to Mt. Vernon--what a view from the front porch overlooking the Potomac River (the Spanish pronunciation is Pot-O-Mac).).  Mt. Vernon has had a renaissance since my last visit and is even more enticing to visit--besides, Washington was and is my #1 hero. 

     Join us Sunday, should be fun!

MARCO Grand Rounds for August 4, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

 

Vacation Time....KD4GUA will be on vacation in the Nation's Capital so will miss the next two weeks....instead, we will have Vox Pox, voice of the people--YOU!  Danny W4DAN promises to tell how he turned from an introvert to an extrovert (someone take notes, this should be good!) next Sunday.

 

The Bad Guy seems to have moved into our old frequency at our time--he lingers like leprosy...Hope everyone got their "Aether" without being "torn up" by the P.O. machines!

 

We had 32 check-ins which isn't bad for the new frequency...You guys (we had no girls this

Sunday) voted 7 to 1 to allow dogs in the waiting room--that is 4-legged ones.....they, the dogs,  must be calm, clean,  and behaved in order to get a govt certified PT (pet certified) dog tag which enables them to legitimately spread the fleas to your patients (good for business?)

 

I hope the hurricanes stay away while I'm away, will lower my antenna, (too bad I can't lower the house!)(maybe the hurricanes will do it for me)?

MARCO Grand Rounds for July 28, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

 

 This Sunday we will finish up "defibrillation" and move on to two different topics:

     1.  "Pet Therapy"  Should we keep pets in the waiting room to calm patients down?

     2.  "How an introvert can be happier: Act like an Extrovert."  Taken from an article in the Wall St. Journal of July 23 by Sumathi Reddy.

   

Tune in should be fun...

 

The following two weeks I will be on vacation...do we have any volunteers to help out on Grand Rounds? 

MARCO Grand Rounds for July 14, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

 

     This Sunday we will discuss "Low Testosterone Levels."  (also, referred to as "low rhubarb titers." )   It seems the hottest items out there are low Vitamin D levels and low testosterone levels---so you take both and what happens?  Tune in, should be fun!

 

     We are still allergic to the terrorist so we are steering clear of the lower frequency and hanging out at 14.342.

MARCO Grand Rounds for July 7, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

 

This Sunday we will go for the "Disease of the Week," only it will be "DiseaseS of the Week." 

No. 1....Should nurse practitioners be able to treat patients without Physician oversight?

No. 2....The Morning After Pill.

No. 3....Sunscreen as a youth serum.

 

And remember:  "Stressed" spelled backwards is DESSERTS--I believe I'll take chocolate and ice cream.

 

Tune in should be fun--there was an article Chip might have missed whereas it is postulated that pot smoking tips one over the cliff into schizophrenia if one is prone.  Oh yes, there is an outfit in Colorado now selling coin machines that dispenses the stuff.  If you want the stock symbol, tune in Sunday.

MARCO Grand Rounds for June 30, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

 

 Due to Field Day and other factors, the weekly discussion on "LIGHT" was postponed until next Sunday.  New Frequency is 14.342.

 

     This is a very interesting subject and we will include basic knowledge of the electromagnetic spectrum which is classified by wavelength into radio, microwave, infrared, the visible spectrum, ultraviolet, X-rays and gamma rays.

 

     If we have time, we will then diverge into "Light Therapy, Q & A."  Might be a good idea to bone up on these subjects prior so as to broaden and lighten "up" the subject.  If you would like to be a guest lecturer on a Sunday morning don't be bashful--try your luck!

 

     The terrorist was on 14.307 attempting to sell real estate on "field day." 

MARCO Grand Rounds for June 16, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

 

     Last Sunday we had 31 check-ins, down about 20% from what we had on the old frequency of 14.307, but still holding up fairly well under the change circumstances.  The Terrorist was on 14.307 only briefly Sunday--maybe he's beginning to stutter----Remember we will be on the subrosa freq.

 

     This Sunday we will discuss "LIGHT THERAPY."  This mode is used for a variety of conditions ranging from auto immune disorders including psoriasis and eczema to wound healing, depression, neonatal jaundice  and affective disorders.

 

      Have any of you ever been in total darkness?  I experienced it going down a Polish salt mine in a make-shift elevator--PITCH BLACK!!!!  Consider how worthless our eyes would be if we lived in such an environment and what that environment would do to our bodies. 

 

     We have been ladyless lately so make sure all of you take a bath, maybe we can get them back.

MARCO Grand Rounds for June 9, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:    

 

We're picking up slowly as our members find us--will be at 14.342 or down 2 prn QRM....This week we will discuss 'CUTTING-EDGE NUTRITION."  This a subject I despise because we have too many know-it-alls and I'm not one of them....HOWEVER, we had an expert MD give a talk at our hospital, affiliated with the S. Florida University Medical School and thought I could pass his thoughts on to you....

     Since we basically ARE what we EAT you guys who look like a tomato are eating too many tomatoes!  rosy cheeks etc.  I asked this expert "There are no secrets in medicine, why are there so many secrets in nutrition?"  He gave a smart answer "MONEY!"  Anyway, we will have no advertisements so join in and add  to the confusion.  It is a vital subject now-a-days since the rumor is that health insurance rates will soon be set by your BMI

MARCO Grand Rounds for June 2, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

 

This Sunday we will discuss by request:   "WHAT TO ORDER, A CT OR AN MRI?" 

 

If 14.307 is occupied by the LID then we will move up to 14.344.  Last week there was a net on 14.345 so we had to go down 2 to 14.342.  We will always go down 2--apparently this is working as we had 30 checkins.

 

LATEST Burma Shave ad...."Cautious rider to her reckless dear, Let's have less bull and a little more steer!" (The bull, we hope,  will be steered Sunday!)

MARCO Grand Rounds for May 26, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

 

   The terrorist was back this weekend and almost completely wiped out Grand Rounds--a short skip also didn't help....we had only 19 check-ins whereas we normally have 35-40.  We had to resort to 14.344 but there was a net or a schedule on 14.345 which overlapped so we had to go down. 

     Danny and I agreed that this bad guy is not going away.  However, it may end up being a good thing (?) ( Every cloud has a silver lining).  Therefore:   If we can't use 14.307 go to 14.344.  If we are not there go DOWN 2 to 14.342, if not there go down 2 to 14.340 until you pick us up (decreasing in increments of 2).  We thought moving the CW net up to 14.307 at l0:30 Eastern time might be a deterrent but that is up to the CW net.

     Everyone on Listserve should have gotten the June pdf edition of "Aether."  The printed edition will be in the mail shortly.  Photos taken in Myrtle Beach will be in the August edition as they didn't arrive in time for the June issue.  If anyone would like AETHER  EITHER the printed or the pdf version please advise, if not, you will receive both.

 

[NOTE: There will be no Skype simulcast of this Sunday's Grand Rounds. I will be at my son's college graduation - KM2L]

MARCO Grand Rounds for May 19, 2013

From Warren, KD4GUA:

 

     Last Sunday the "Terrorist" was waiting for us and we had to switch to 14.344.  Propagation was poor and lots of QRN so we lost a lot of members....SO, because the topic was so important we are going to continue the topic "BARIATRIC SURGERY" which includes lap bands & gastric by-pass procedures. 

     This topic is so important because now, surgical treatment of Diabetes Mellitus is the treatment of choice for those 100 lbs overweight.  This will be a banana---bonanza, for the surgeons in that the mortality is less than 1% at 6 months.  It will also be a lollipop for the lawyers for that 1%.

     There doesn't seem to be any way to waylay the intruder since he is using all sorts of gadgets to deter us and two wrongs don't make a right.  How about moving CW back to 14.307,  

30 minutes before net time?  This "slap on the wrist" by the FCC doesn't work with psychopaths. 

MARCO Grand Rounds for May 12, 2013

From Warren, KD4GUA:  

 

This Sunday we will discuss the relatively new procedure "SLEEVE GASTRECCTOMY," for those morbidly obese.  This laproscopic procedure resolves 56% of diabetes, 49% of hypertension, 43% of hyperlipidemia and 60% of obstructive sleep apnea...besides it is quicker, safer and diminishes the production of the hormone Ghrelin, which has been described as a hunger-regulating hormone.

    Tune in for an up-to-date report on this new procedure--

 

     We will start at 14.307 at 11 am Eastern Daylight time and if the "thing" (the terrorist)  is in his obstructive mood we will automatically move to our alternate frequency (and if occupied, go DOWNstream till we hit an open freq.)  DO NOT MENTION THE ALTERNATE FREQUENCY.  It would help  if some members would rag chew starting 30 minutes prior on 14.307, although last week he was already spewing his foul language at 10:20 am.....  In this way we can aid the monitors listening to his trash.  If you really want to get turned-off--listen to this LID!  (He is great for activating skunk glands.)

MARCO Grand Rounds for May 5, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

This Sunday we will discuss the topic of the week, "RICIN."  

At the meeting in Myrtle Beach, we decided to go BACK to 14.307, since the terrorist has been warned by the FCC (in December!).  If we get interference we will move up to 14.344.  Do NOT mention 14.344 on the air, simply say, "Resort to alternate frequency."  It would help if we  get a rag chew going at 10:30 EASTERN to keep the frequency open. 

We had a great time in Myrtle Beach thanks to our Prez Mary AE4BX. 

MARCO Grand Rounds for April 21, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

 This Sunday we will be on 14.344 MHz at 11 am Eastern.  The subject will be "PREPARING FOR THE 21ST CENTURY PATIENTS."  (For details see JAMA April 10, 2013, page 1471, an article by the Assoc. Senior Editor.)  

 The following Sunday there will be NO NET as we will be meeting in Myrtle Beach, FL for the Annual MARCO meeting.  Members of the Board of Directors are mandated to be on board unless they are on duty or have adequate excuses.  All members of MARCO or guests are welcome.  Our President Mary Farvaro is counting on your presence if able.

 I will be driving up since I found the air fare for two was over $1,200 and it  is only about 600 miles and I am a profound cheapskate when it comes to being ripped off!!!!  (If  I hadn't landed at their airstrip before in my little plane I would say it is only 500' long.) 

 The town is cute, on the ocean, with a stiff breeze--sometimes a REAL stiff breeze!!!  April 25-28th at the Breakers, phone 843 444 4444, reduced rate for Marco members.

   So far the Terrorist hasn't found us, let's hope it stays that way!  (Maybe he will show up at Myrtle Beach and let the air out of all of our tires!)

MARCO Grand Rounds for April 14, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

I would like to congratulate the 34 stations that were able to make the transition to the new frequency of 14.344 the past Sunday....we had to QSY to 14.341 because of another station's QRM, but things worked out much better than anticipated.  

 

The "thing" (terrorist) was occupying our normal frequency so we made the switch--let's hope he doesn't follow us.  I note Wayne K1WDR has idented the "thing" (note small letters) with a report dated back 13 years ago--proof psychopaths (or sociopaths) don't change.  We have known for about 3 months his identity and his past record and last week I sent my 4th, this one registered, letter to the FCC in Gettysburg along with a copy to my Congressman--I did note there was a station that identified itself as a "monitor."  Whether the FCC is a paper tiger we will soon find out.

 

This Sunday we will discuss "Inoculations needed for travel," as requested, since world-wide traveling will soon increase with the better weather in the N. Hemisphere.  DO NOT mention 14.344 if you should tune into 14.307 as the jerk will follow us!!!!

 

We haven't heard from Harry WB9EDP, Ellen, KC6ARN, Linda KE5BQK, and Bernie KD5QHV lately, hope they are all okay.  Good to have Bruce KM2L back in harness!

MARCO Grand Rounds for March 31, 2013

From Warren, KD4GUA:

 

This Sunday we will attempt to discuss "ABSINTH" (Absinth makes the heart grow fonder",  La fee verte) and a problem all of us are running into with the use of statin drugs, i.e., "Rhabdomyolysis."  (muscleosis)

     In order to succeed we will have to grab the freq. early (14.307) as there is a big contest this weekend.  If unable, we will postpone the discussion until the following weekend. 

     In case you don't know what Absinth is--try some and let us know the consequences!  You have to drink it -- not read about it.   Statins, you can read about.....

Robert Smithwick, W6CS, Silent Key

MARCO lost another of its giants when Robert "Smitty" Smithwick, W6CS, passed away on March 22, 2013.

Smitty was instrumental in the founding of MediShare International, MARCO's charitable arm. He served as the first Chairman of MediShare International, forging links with several partner agencies including the Bush Hospital Foundation, International Aid and Direct Relief International. Under his leadership, the organization completed projects in Rwanda, Kenya, Zambia and Malawi.

MARCO and MediShare were but a small part of Smitty's achievements. He was on the DX Honor Roll, hosted a team at his house for the WRTC held in San Francisco, and counted numerous famous DXers among his close friends. He was a highly successful pediatric dentist in northern California and served in California's Department of Health under Governor Ronald Reagan. The accomplishment that made him the proudest was helping to found Foothill and DeAnza Colleges.

Smitty was 93 years old at the time of his passing.

MARCO Grand Rounds for March 24, 2013

From Warren, KD4GUA:

 

This Sunday we will briefly mention DMSO and then shift to the 200th anniversary of John Snow's birth--he is the one who diagnosed Cholera in London and traced it to a watering pump in the Soho in 1850.  It wasn't until 1883 that Koch and Louis Pasteur introduced the germ theory--just think of getting sick in the early 19th Century--with no antibiotics!  Cholera was a big killer and they thought it was caused by bad smelly air!  (which it was in a way!).  Tune in and bring your "NUMB NOSE".,,,,,and remember, "Growing old is mandatory, growing wise is optional."

MARCO Grand Rounds for March 10, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

 

     This Sunday we will talk about the "AGING SKIN".  This will be an update from the discussion we had on March 14, 2004...since then our skin has become more "mature" and wants to be talked about.  What do you tell your patients to do?  Stay out of the sun and can the prolonged hot showers?

     The Terrorist made a brief appearance last Sunday and should he interfere again this Sunday, the QSY frequency will be on or about 14.344--do not mention this freq or he will follow us--

MARCO Grand Rounds for February 24, 2013

From Warren, KD4GUA:

    This Sunday we will discuss "ACE INHIBITION".  This will be a refresher on the metabolism of the ACE drugs--something basic we all forget over time. 

     If the "terrorist" should try to tie up the frequency we will shift to 14.344 or whereabouts....please keep this secret and don't discuss "QSY to 14.344" or else he will follow us.   Write this frequency down NOW and do not mention it on the air.

     And remember what Thomas Jefferson said years ago, "Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading."

MARCO Grand Rounds for January 27, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

 

 We will finish the discussion of Dreams and then work into something we all need a refresher in--"ACE (Angiotensin converting enzymes) and Angiotensin II receptor antagonists or blockers.  Let's hope the "static maker" sleeps late Sunday morning....and remember, "Never answer anonymous letters."

 

And from Chip N5RTF:

 

The streaming audio start page: http://www.reliastream.com/cast/start/tkeister

now has mp3 files of the last 2 nets on demand.  Today's net will be added later.  To listen to a past net, click on the file with the correct date in the title.  This uses the built-in web player which may not work on non-Windows system.

An alternate way that may actually be better is to Right-click on the file name, then choose Save As... and pick a location on your home system.  You can then play the net as a podcast file using a player of your choice.  This provides the added benefit of being able to back up or fast-forward.

To listen to today's net live, click the web browser on the start page or if you are listening on a phone or tablet, there are links to common media players at the top of the page.  On some systems, you might need to click or type the following link into your system's media player: http://67.213.213.143:8014/stream or http://67.213.213.143:8014

 

MARCO Grand Rounds for January 27, 2013

From Warren, KD4GUA:

 

The past Sunday Grand Round of the Air was cut short by the interruptions of the "terrorist."    I have sent three messages to the FCC to help us deter this individual-- without a response.  It is apparent the FCC is not our answer.

 

Now I have come to the conclusion that we should attempt to help this pschopath before he substitutes a gun for the microphone.  I am requesting Chip N5RTF, our excellent psychiatrist for help by giving a talk, and Chip is an excellent speaker, on "Psychopathic" or "Sociopathic" Behavior.  Perhaps it will work.  Since the terrorist lives in Michigan, Chipper should be able to get through okay.

 

If Chip is unable, we will continue the discussion on "DREAMS." 

MARCO Grand Rounds for January 20, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:  This Sunday we will discuss "DREAMS."  Controlling dreams, Dream incubation, Premonitions if dreams, What do dreams mean?Dream recall, recurring dreams and nightmares, sleep eating, sleep walking, bruxism.    If you are a dreamer you will like this one.    If you would like an early edition  of "Aether" for February, send me your email address and I will send you the pdf digital copy, otherwise you will receive it regardless,  through the mail in about 10 days along with the  CME Certificate for 2012.  make sure your membership is paid up--if not send Danny you dues at Danny Centers, 2712 Bryant Drive, Cleveland, TN 37311.        None of us are paid at Marco but we do have expenses--TNX

MARCO Grand Rounds for January 13, 2013

From Warren, KD4GUA:

 

This Sunday we will discuss "HAVE WE LOST THE WAR ON DRUGS?"  Has the human cost become too high?  Portugal has decriminalized all drug use while maintaining the illegality of drug trafficking--has it worked?

 

Bill KC9CS was successful in chasing the terrorist by telling him he was being monitored.  We will have to wait and see......contest this Sunday but it should be limited.

MARCO Grand Rounds for January 6, 2013

From Warren, KD4GUA:

 

This Sunday we will continue the discussion of  "IS MY PATIENT SAFE TO FLY."   Last week we homed in on your responsibility to assist sick patients in flight and we had some interesting comments.  

 

Sunday will enter into a new year for CME credits.  You certificate for 2012 will be attached to the next edition of "Aether," at the end of January.
