Are you sure you want government-run health care?

Wilfredo Muldoon: I do not want government run health care. I do not want them making my decisions for me. I expect government to listen to me, not do whatever they want to forward an agenda. I have never seen such an egotistical, haughty group ~ Obama and Pelosi at the forefront.

Faviola Dewire: I don't think the government should run anything dealing with health-care because they are going to do something that is not going to help every person in America.

Dick Baumgarten: The Senate just had to privatize the senate restaurant. It was loosing close to $17 million a year.

Travis Colomb: Do me a Favor and investigate the Quality of health care that is provided by the VA and medicare! Now understand that no one will deny health care claims to those who have them? The government has no motive to jerk you around and deny your health care whereas the public companies have enormous motive to deny you health care! Think about it and PLEASE research!!

Jen Maday: I don't want it, but I'll take that over being forced to buy health insurance from a private company.

Rheba Cockman: Many brand new brothels and old ones under the same regulations are doing quite well. Could it be that the Mustang Ranch was so set in its ways that they could not adapt and the clients could not tolerate any change, even for the better? Just Goggle Nevada Brothels.And it is not going to be a govenment run health care. It is a NON-PROFIT public option Health Insurance. Right now the for profit industry of Health Insurance Companies and HMO's monopolize and do not want to compete with a non-profit public option. That would allow those who are of lower income or preexisting conditions to have coverage and they may have to lower their rates to compete with the Public Option and allow preexisting conditions, thereby reducing their profits. Another thing, they can save money by canceling policies or denying claims ! and with the Health Care Reform those practices will become illegal. People will not be going bankrupt during a long legal battle in the courts to get these companies to pay insurance claims and reinstate policies wrongfully denied and canceled. The "I don't want to pay for the uninsured health care" is not valid since everyone already does pay for the highest priced care of all-the emergency rooms-which is the only option for those without coverage. A lower cost coverage will reduce the use of expensive emergency room care and give money saving preventative health care. Before flu becomes pneumonia requiring hospitalization for example. 60% of bankruptcy is due to Medical Expenses and that includes people who were insured but their claims were denied. "It’s True! Health Insurers Tell Congress They Cancel Policies of Sick PatientsCategory: Laboratory News, Laboratory PathologyPublished: July 6 2009Rescinding health policies of 20,000 people in past five years saved health! insurers $300 millionFor years, Americans have heard news stories abou! t the sick patient whose health insurance policy was rescinded in the midst of a health crisis. Now comes public acknowledgementâ€"at a Congressional hearing no lessâ€"that this business practice exists!Executives from three of the nation’s largest health insurers admitted to this practice when testifying at a Congressional investigation recently. Observers believe the surprisingly candid acknowledgement about health insurance recessions pretty much guarantees insurers will be excluded from the health care reform debate.

Granted, no system is perfect, and we have had our problems, but nothing like the problems that America has with it's current system.Those who want private care and more control can still choose to have private health insurance (we do).

Comment se débarrasser de la douleur au genou causée par la course à pied

Comment se débarrasser de la douleur au genou causée par la course à pied

p>La course à pied met beaucoup de pression sur vos genoux, vous pouvez donc avoir des douleurs au genou de temps en temps. Lorsque vous ressentez des douleurs au genou en courant, il y a plusieurs choses que vous pouvez faire pour obtenir un certain soulagement. Si votre douleur au genou est intense ou si elle ne s’améliore pas après quelques jours, vous devriez consulter un médecin le plus tôt possible.

Reposez votre genou. Prévoyez de prendre quelques jours de congé de la course à pied ainsi que d’autres activités qui mettent de la pression sur vos genoux, comme la marche, le vélo et le ski. Vous ne devriez pas reprendre votre programme d’exercice normal tant que votre genou n’est pas guéri.

Renseignez-vous sur les injections de c! orticostéroïdes. Les injections de corticostéroïdes peuvent procurer un soulagement temporaire de la douleur causée par une blessure au genou. Cependant, vous devrez répéter les injections tous les deux ou trois mois et ce traitement peut entraîner un amincissement de la peau de votre genou avec le temps. Parlez-en à votre médecin pour voir s’il s’agit d’une bonne option dans votre cas.

Prenez un analgésique en vente libre. Les analgésiques en vente libre comme l’aspirine, l’acétaminophène et l’ibuprofène peuvent aider à soulager la douleur associée au genou du coureur. Assurez-vous de lire et de suivre les instructions d’utilisation du fabricant.

Essayez de porter des semelles de support de voûte plantaire. Si vous avez les pieds plats ou des arches hautes, votre douleur au genou peut être due à un soutien insuffisant de la voûte plantaire. Vous pouvez acheter des supports de voûte plantaire pour vos chaussures de course à p! ied dans une pharmacie. Si vous voulez vous procurer des suppo! rts d’arche de fabrication professionnelle, vous pouvez consulter un podiatre pour des semelles intérieures sur mesure ou parler à un physiothérapeute pour obtenir une paire d’orthèses faites sur mesure.

Portez une attelle de genou. Une attelle de genou peut aider à prévenir d’autres blessures au genou en gardant vos genoux alignés. Le port d’une attelle de genou peut vous aider à vous protéger contre de futures entorses au genou. Vous pouvez acheter des genouillères dans les magasins de sport, mais vous pouvez aussi faire fabriquer une genouillère sur mesure par un orthésiste pour un meilleur ajustement.

Incluez un échauffement et une période de récupération dans vos séances d’entraînement. L’échauffement et le refroidissement sont importants pour réduire les blessures liées au sport. Assurez-vous que toutes vos séances d’entraînement comprennent au moins cinq minutes d’échauffement et de récupération.

Protégez v! otre genou contre d’autres douleurs ou blessures. Si vous avez été blessé ou si vous remarquez simplement que cela fait mal de mettre de la pression sur votre genou, la première chose à faire est de protéger votre genou en descendant de celui-ci. Par exemple, si vous marchez quelque part, asseyez-vous ou demandez à une amie de vous laisser vous appuyer sur elle jusqu’à ce que vous puissiez vous asseoir dans un endroit sûr.

Comprimez la zone autour du genou. Enveloppez votre genou d’un bandage athlétique ou élastique pour comprimer la région tout en permettant à votre genou de bouger. Vous pouvez acheter un bandage élastique dans une pharmacie. Portez l’écharpe de genou quand vous n’êtes pas en train de geler votre genou.

Demandez une physiothérapie. Un physiothérapeute peut concevoir une routine d’étirements et d’exercices pour vous aider à récupérer de votre blessure. Un physiothérapeute peut également travailler avec vous ! pour identifier vos défis spécifiques.

Surélevez votre jambe. ! Vous devriez également soulever le genou et la jambe affectés à un niveau qui est au-dessus de votre cÅ"ur chaque fois que vous êtes allongé. Cette stratégie peut aider à réduire l’enflure du genou. La nuit, vous pouvez placer la jambe affectée sur deux oreillers pour la soulever au-dessus de votre cÅ"ur. Pendant la journée, essayez de vous allonger dans un fauteuil inclinable ou un canapé, la jambe appuyée sur deux oreillers.

Glacez votre genou. Glacez votre genou quatre ou cinq fois par jour pour réduire l’enflure et la douleur. Gardez à l’esprit que vous ne devez pas appliquer de glace sur la peau nue. Enveloppez un sac de glace, des glaçons ou un sac de petits pois congelés dans une serviette avant de les appliquer sur votre genou. Tenez le sac de glace sur vos genoux pendant 15 à 20 minutes à chaque fois.

Envisagez une intervention chirurgicale en cas de douleur grave ou chronique au genou. Dans certains cas, une intervention chirurg! icale peut être nécessaire pour se débarrasser de la douleur causée par une blessure au genou. Si vous avez tout essayé et que votre genou ne semble pas s’améliorer, vous voudrez peut-être demander à votre médecin quelles sont vos options chirurgicales. Il peut s’agir notamment de :

Consulter un médecin pour des douleurs sévères ou persistantes au genou. Si votre douleur est intense ou si elle ne s’atténue pas dans les deux ou trois jours, consultez votre médecin pour un traitement. Une douleur grave ou persistante au genou peut être le signe d’une blessure grave qui ne s’améliorera pas sans traitement médical.

Classical conditioning in commercials help?

Fermin Tara: Classical Conditioning in Advertising Classical Conditioning is defined as "a type of learning in which a stimulus acquires the capacity to evoke a response that was originally evoked by another stimulus"(Weiten). It is a very effective tool for advertising and is used in many different forms of advertising. By just turning on the television and watching a few commercials you are sure to see quite a few examples of Classical Conditioning. One of these examples is a commercial done by Mikes Hard Lemonade. In this commercial it starts off a doctor testing a patient with an ultra sound machine. Inside his stomach you see some kind of snake or monster. The doctor says he does not have long to live so they both go out and buy a Mikes Hard Lemonade. The slogan they use is "A Hard Day calls for a Mikes Hard Lemonade". This is effective by linking the thought of a hard day to the idea of drinking a Mikes Hard Lemonade. It is probably aimed toward a younger audience 2! 1-26 but could reach any age group. I would and do buThen it shows him standing on top of the world. It is trying to associate being young and cool with drinking Diet Pepsi. It tries to associate Starbucks with being on top of the world and being energized. It is a very effective tool for advertisers and has been used extensively. It shows a middle-aged man riding on a Harley to the song "Born to be Wild" and then shows that he was just fantasizing and that he's really on a bus. It's aimed at a young audience and wants to be seen as a tough and cool thing to drive. It states that " you can do anything in a Nissan". It shows a guy walking through mud and he looks very tired, then he drinks a Starbucks Double shot and he starts running with a lot of energy with flowers popping up out of the mud. But maybe I'm just easily swayed by Classical Conditioning Another interesting example of Classical conditioning is used in a Diet Pepsi commercial. I think this commercial is aimed a! t a younger audience and is fairly effective. It is very helpf! ul for them to tie their product to some other emotion or thought so that hopefully when someone thinks of something the thought of their product also comes to mind. Starbucks also uses classical conditioning in one of their commercials however I do not find it very effective. I don't think its very effective but maybe older viewers would like to feel that by drinking Diet Pepsi they can have the feeling of being young and free like the guy's fantasy of riding a motorcycle. There motto is "Think Young" and is meant for a older audience....Show more

Cómo cuidar a un perro lesionado

Cómo cuidar a un perro lesionado

Al igual que una persona, un perro puede ser lastimado de maneras que son obvias y difíciles de detectar. Sin embargo, a diferencia de una persona, un perro no puede decirle cuándo le duele o qué debe hacer para ayudar. Para saber cómo cuidar a un perro lesionado, usted debe ser capaz de determinar qué tipo de lesión tiene el perro. También es importante saber cómo dar atención inmediata a una lesión reciente y cómo tratar una afección a largo plazo.

Busque atención veterinaria. Incluso para lo que parece ser una lesión menor, es una buena idea buscar atención profesional. Es posible que no pueda detectar algunas lesiones, como las que son internas.

Examine al perro lenta y cuidadosamente. Mire al perro para determinar dónde y cómo se lesiona, teniendo cuidado de no asustarlo o lastimarlo m! ás.

Ponga bozal al perro si es necesario. Si un perro herido intenta morderlo o muestra signos de hostilidad, es posible que tenga que cubrirse la boca para evitar las mordeduras.

Mueva el perro con cuidado. Existe una buena posibilidad de que tenga que mover al perro herido, ya sea que lo traiga a casa, lo lleve al veterinario o simplemente intente sacarlo de una calle muy concurrida. Un perro herido debe ser movido suavemente y con mucho cuidado.

Déle medicamentos al perro. Algunas lesiones duran mucho tiempo, a veces incluso el resto de la vida del perro. El tratamiento de estas lesiones requiere paciencia y consistencia. Para empezar, déle a su perro cualquier medicamento que su veterinario le recete, siguiendo todas las instrucciones con precisión.

Use férulas y aparatos ortopédicos según corresponda. Si su perro ha sufrido una lesión que le dificulta caminar o pararse, puede beneficiarse de una férula, un aparato ortopédico o un carro! . Hay varios de estos productos disponibles tanto para uso a c! orto como a largo plazo.

Use una compresa fría. Si tiene moretones o sensibilidad, puede darle a su perro un alivio inmediato con una compresa fría. Coloque suavemente algo congelado, como una bolsa de arvejas congeladas, en el área lesionada.

Mantenga el ejercicio moderado. Un perro lesionado no debe esforzarse demasiado, ya que esto puede provocar más lesiones o lesiones en la zona dañada. Asegúrese de que el perro no camine o corra demasiado tiempo sobre una pierna lesionada, por ejemplo.

Protéjase. Incluso un perro que normalmente es amable y dócil es más probable que se comporte de una manera hostil si se lesiona. Si usted sospecha que un perro está herido, siempre tenga cuidado de no ser mordido o lesionado de alguna otra manera.

Aprenda las señales de lesión. A veces, cuando un perro se ha lesionado, usted podrá verlo de inmediato. Otras veces, la lesión será más difícil de detectar. Asegúrese de tomar nota de los siguientes ! signos de lesión:

Realice la reanimación cardiopulmonar si es necesario. Si un perro no está respirando, es posible que necesite realizar RCP. Cierre la boca del perro y coloque sus labios sobre su nariz. Dé de tres a cuatro respiraciones fuertes.

Pruebe con un masaje suave. Algunos perros se beneficiarán de un suave masaje de la zona lesionada, una vez que ya no sea demasiado sensible. Frote ligeramente las áreas afectadas.

Llame a un veterinario inmediatamente si necesita atención de emergencia. Algunas lesiones son menores y pueden, si es necesario, esperar a ser tratadas por su veterinario habitual. Sin embargo, las lesiones que ponen en peligro la vida requieren atención inmediata, y si su veterinario no está disponible, deberá ponerse en contacto con una clínica veterinaria de emergencia. Obtenga atención de emergencia para lo siguiente:

Haga cambios en su dieta. Cambiar lo que come su perro también puede ser útil para tratar las ! lesiones. Para las lesiones que han resultado de tejido debilitado, lo ! mejor es una dieta de alta calidad a base de carne.

Detenga cualquier sangrado. Si el perro está sangrando por su lesión, presione firmemente sobre el área lesionada con los dedos y la palma de la mano y aplique un vendaje firme pero no apretado. Las gasas o un paño o toalla a menudo son suficientes.

Pruebe con remedios herbales. Hay un número de remedios herbarios que algunas personas han encontrado útiles para aliviar el dolor de un perro herido. Aunque estos no están médicamente probados, usted puede intentar lo siguiente:

Aplique un torniquete si es necesario. Si un perro tiene una lesión en la pierna o en la cola que no deja de sangrar, y está sangrando a chorros de sangre de manera rítmica, puede tener una arteria dañada. Es posible que necesite aplicar un torniquete para salvar su vida.

Limpie y trate las laceraciones. Si el perro tiene alguna laceración que no esté sangrando, límpielo con una solución antiséptica, como peróx! ido de hidrógeno, y séquelo.

Robt Heemstra: Getting drunk isn't good for your body, but it is part of growing up, so it's good for your mind. Alcohol and fitness go well together, well adjusted human beings drink alcohol from time to time, and well adjusted human beings are also fit. Keep in mind though: Alcohol is crazy high in calories, and your body prefers it as an energy source over other nutrients, make sure to look up the caloric values of some drinks, and decide how many you will allow yourself in one night, and do a little extra in the gym the ! next day.Go have some healthy fun....Show more
