“A Slimmer, Happier, Healthier You in 2013”By Dr. Greg Fors, DC
Board-certifi ed Neurologist
It has been said that a defi nition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. If you are not at the weight you desire or as healthy as you would wish, doesn't it make sense that you must change something to change this. Patients usually ask me, “What should I eat?” I usually respond, “What did your mother tell you to eat?” The most common response is “fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains and lean meats and don't overeat.” My point to my patients and to you is that generally we have a pretty good idea what we should be eating we just need to apply it in our everyday life. This application is less an issue of willpower, and more a realization that nothing tastes as good as it does to feel good. Remember what the founding father of Western medicine, said: “Let thy medicine be thy food, and thy food, thy medicine”. Also it's not just about what you eat, but how you eat. For instance, studies have shown that people eat a whopping 40 percent more food when watching TV. Imagine how much healthier we could all be if we stepped away from the tube while we ate. Meals should be an endeavor where we are fully conscious of what we are doing and the importance it brings to healthy life. In other words, apply yourself to, eating to live not living to eat! Start by removing all the sodas and junk food from your diet. Colored, fl avored sugar water does nothing for your health and happiness. Research has also shown to that artifi cially sweetened sodas actually lead to weight gain through insulin signaling. Remove all processed foods that contain high fructose corn syrup or lists sugars in the fi rst four ingredients on the label. Then start eating less by simply utilizing smaller plates. Numerous studies have found that the more food that's in front of you the more you’ll eat. Instead of a large 14 inch dinner plate, why not serve your main course on a 7 to 9 inch salad plate. Once you've begun the basics then you need to look to optimizing your metabolism. One of the primary metabolic imbalances today is low thyroid syndrome. The thyroid produces hormones that control cellular metabolism and the conversion of calories into energy. So, if it is not working properly, you end up with weight gain and fatigue. The usual approach in identifying hypothyroidism is to measure the pituitary hormone TSH and sometimes the thyroid prohormone T4. If the results are within the labs “normal” range the individual is told they are fi ne. The problem with this simple approach to a complex syndrome is that many people continue to suffer from their symptoms after their doctor tells them their thyroid tests are “in the normal range” or even after starting thyroid medication. To fi nd the underlying causes and possible solutions for weight gain and fatigue associated with hypothyroidism, doctors need to look much deeper with specifi c laboratory testing. To properly diagnose your condition a knowledgeable doctor must run and properly interpret at least eight different thyroid tests TSH, total T4, free T4, total T-3, free T3, reverse T-3. Also, thyroid antibody tests must be run to determine if you have Hashimoto's disease the most common cause of thyroid dysfunction. 2013 has been dubbed the year of optimism, why not for you too! Replace focusing on the things you think you can’t do and replace them with positive affi rmations for slimmer, happier and healthier you. These thoughts can become their own self-fulfi lling prophecy. Also, make this the year you do something about your health, read a book, attend a lecture, visit a doctor who specializes in functional medicine. Want to make 2013 the year of the slimmer, happier, healthier you? Attend one of my upcoming FREE SEMINARS! I will be discussing natural solutions to correct these thyroid and metabolic problems. The seminars will be held Wednesday, January 23rd and Monday, January 28th 7:00 to 8:00 PM at the Pain and Brain Healing Center.

► On Jan. 23, 1849, Elizabeth Blackwell is granted a medical degree from Geneva College in New York, becoming the fi rst female to be offi cially recognized as a physician in U.S. history. In 1857, she founded the New York Infi rmary for Women and Children.
► On Jan. 21, 1957, Patsy Cline, one of the most important fi gures in country-music history, fi rst gains national attention with her winning appearance on “Arthur Godfrey’s Talent Scouts.” Cline wowed the studio audience with her performance of the now-classic “Walkin’ After Midnight.”
► On Jan. 22, 1973, the Supreme Court decriminalizes abortion by handing down its decision in the case of Roe v. Wade. For most of the country’s fi rst 100 years, abortion was not a criminal offense, nor was it considered immoral.
► On Feb. 1, 1884, the fi rst portion of the Oxford English Dictionary is published. In 1857, members of London’s Philological Society decided to produce a dictionary that would cover all vocabulary from 1150 A.D. to the present. It took more than 40 years to complete.
► On Jan. 28, 1915, the captain of a German cruiser orders the destruction of the William P. Frye, an American merchant ship off the Brazilian coast. He had ordered the Frye to jettison its cargo as contraband, but the ship’s crew refused. It was the fi rst American merchant vessel lost to Germany’s aggression during World War I.
► On Jan. 25, 1905, at the Premier Mine in Pretoria, South Africa, a 3,106-carat diamond, the “Cullinan,” is discovered. Worried that the diamond might be stolen in transit from Africa to London, a phony diamond was sent as a decoy aboard a steamer ship loaded with detectives, while the real stone slowly made its way in a plain box.
► On Jan. 24, 1935, canned beer makes its debut when the Gottfried Krueger Brewing Company delivered 2,000 cans of beer and ale to faithful Krueger drinkers in Richmond, Va. Ninety-one percent of the drinkers approved of the canned beer, prompting Krueger to give the green light to further production
► On Jan. 26, 1945, the most decorated soldier of World War II, American Lt. Audie Murphy, is wounded in France. Murphy was wounded three times, fought in nine major
campaigns across Europe, and was credited with killing 241 Germans. He won 37 medals and decorations.
► On Feb. 3, 1950, Klaus Fuchs, a German-born British scientist who helped developed the atomic bomb, is arrested in Great Britain for passing top-secret information about the bomb to the Soviet Union. The arrest of Fuchs led authorities to several other individuals, including Julius and Ethel Rosenberg in the U.S.

• On December 6, 1941, Japan was preparing to mount an attack on Pearl Harbor. A Japanese spy in Pearl Harbor walked right up to the telegraph offi ce in town and sent a dispatch to his confederates describing where the warships were located. The telegram cost $6.82 and apparently nobody in the telegraph offi ce thought it was suspicious.• On Dec. 6, 1941, a new employee at the Offi ce of Naval Intelligence, Mrs. Dorothy Edgers (who had been employed there only a month), decoded an intercepted Japanese message that indicated Honolulu was to be the target of a Japanese attack. She showed it to her superior offi cer, who said it needed more work and could wait until Monday.• In May of 1942, the Japanese were preparing to mount a major attack somewhere in the Central Pacifi c. The U.S. had broken the Japanese code and were aware of the impending attack. However, they didn't know what the target would be. The Japanese called the target "AF" and the Americans could not fi gure out what place that denoted. Then they came up with a scheme: they had Midway send an uncoded message saying their water distillation plant had broken down and they were short on drinking water. Then they monitored the Japanese transmissions. Two days later, they intercepted a coded message from Japan
reporting that "AF" was short of drinking water. When the Japanese descended on Midway, the American forces were ready and waiting.• When agents stormed the Japanese embassy in Portugal, they seized a Japanese code book, thinking it would be helpful to the Allies. What they didn't know was that the Allies had already broken the code. Now that Japan knew the code book had been stolen, they changed the code. It took a year before the U.S. could break the new code.
World War I
• When American decoding experts intercepted and deciphered a message from Germany to Mexico, they found that Germany was offering Mexico a large chunk of the United States if only Mexico would join with them in the war. This message was pivotal in pushing the U.S. into World War I.• Zeppelin L-49 was returning to Germany during World War I after having bombed London. It was over France when it ran out of fuel. There was no way the aircraft was going to make it back to Germany. The captain, knowing they were doomed to be captured, knew it was essential to get rid of the code books. But he couldn't burn the books because the zeppelin was fi lled with fl ammable gas. So he ordered his men to shred the books and toss the pieces of paper over the side. When they were captured,
Colonel Richard Williams of the U.S. Army Intelligence was frustrated when he found that the code books had been destroyed. So he sent the troops out to search the ground following the path the airship had taken. By nightfall they had collected 22 sacks full of tiny scraps of paper. Williams set his men to the task of reconstructing the book. By midnight they had put together a complete map of the North Sea showing the call sign positions for a U-boat rendezvous.• William and Elizabeth Friedman were a married team of cryptanalysts who were instrumental in cracking many codes. Once the British sent them some sample messages from a new encoding device they were considering using throughout the British Army. Within three hours of receiving the fi ve messages, the Friedmans had deciphered them. The fi rst message, ironically enough, said, "This cipher is absolutely indecipherable."
Earlier Wars
• A captured slave was brought to General Lysander, leader of the Spartan forces around 400 B.C. A message the slave was carrying was handed to the General. There were many hostilities going on, so Lysander suspected the message would bear important information. However, it did not. Then he noticed the slave's belt was decorated with a series of letters that made no sense. He took the belt and wrapped it around a
thin rod. There, down the side of the rod, was a perfectly legible message. It said that the Persians— who were supposed to be allies of the Spartans— were planning to take over. Thus forewarned, Lysander rushed his forces back to Sparta and ruined the plot.• Around 300 B.C. Histiaeos was the governor of the ancient Greek city Miletus. He was being held under guard and couldn't get any messages out— but it was imperative that he inform his people behind enemy lines that he planned to overthrow Darius, the king of Persia. He shaved the head of his servant and tattooed the message on his scalp. After the hair grew back, he sent the servant out on an errand. The message was delivered.• During the Revolutionary War, messages were sent via Anna Strong's clothesline. She signaled an American spy whenever a boatman was ready to carry secret messages across Long Island Sound. A black petticoat hung out to dry meant that the boatman was waiting. The number of hankies next to it indicated which cove he was hiding in.• Paul Bernard was a French spy in World War I who sent his secret messages home by writing the essential information in the top right-hand corner of postcards, and then putting postage stamps over the writing.• Thomas Jefferson invented a coding instrument called the wheel cipher that is still used by the U.S. Navy today.

▲ If your straw broom isn’t working as well as it did when new, try giving it a spruce-up. Beat any dust out of the ends,
then trim off any bent straws. Trim a section from a leg of stretched out pantyhose or tights and wrap it around the bristles, about 2 inches up from the bottom. This keeps the bristles nice and tight, and it will collect dirt better.
▲ “When cooking rice, add a little bit of lemon juice to the water. It doesn’t really fl avor it, but it will keep it nice and white, plus it seems to be a bit fl uffi er when I do this.” -- R.E. in Mississippi
▲ “When my child was mostly fi nished potty training, I put her baby potty in the car with some wet wipes and plastic baggies. Seems like she had emergencies when we were driving, and it wasn’t always convenient to fi nd a business with a bathroom in time. But it was easy to pull into a parking lot and let her take care of business.” -- E.E. in Maine
▲ Store extra plastic grocery bags in empty tissue boxes. They are easy to store this way, and you can keep them under the sink or in the car for easy access.
▲ “Keep your garage fl oor nice by lining the area where you park with carpet remnants. Road salt and other nasty business that your tires pick up will not corrode the fl oor. You can shake out the rugs outside.” -- C.Y. in New York
▲ Sunburn happens in the winter, too, especially on the slopes. Use a cotton ball soaked in cold tea to ease tight, dry skin. Be sure to apply sunscreen to your face and wear eye protection when going out in the snow.
▲ For drains slowed by grease, sprinkle a half-cup each of salt and baking soda down the drain, and follow it with an entire kettle or pot of boiling water.
▲ If the smell in your cedar chest has faded, bring it back easily with extra-fi ne sandpaper. A very light sanding is all it takes in most cases.
▲ For delicious baked potatoes, boil a pot of salted water, add whole potatoes with skin, remove from heat and let stand for 15 minutes. Finish in oven for a sturdier skin. Start checking for doneness after 15 minutes in the oven. Baking time can be cut in half! -- J.L. in Florida
▲ Remove that musty smell from stored clothes by adding either vinegar or ammonia to the wash water. Be sure to check for smell removal BEFORE drying, as the dryer can bake the smell into clothes, making it more diffi cult to remove.

• During World War II, Japanese invasions of rubber-producing countries in the Far East vastly reduced availability of rubber in the U.S. In the 1940s, the U.S. War Production Board asked General Electric for help in developing a cheap substitute for rubber so that production of things such as boots and tires could continue. G.E. hired James Wright, who created a compound after accidentally dropping some boric acid into silicone oil in 1943. • It stretched further than rubber; rebounded higher than rubber; was impervious to mold and decay; and could withstand all temperatures. The only problem was that scientists could fi nd no real use for the stuff. In 1945, G.E. mailed samples to scientists all over the world, asking them to fi nd a purpose for it. • Paul Hodgson happened to attend a party where some of the stuff was brought out. It entertained the party-goers for hours. He teamed up with the owner of a toy store and Silly Putty outsold everything else in the company catalog with the exception of a 50 cent box of crayons. Still, the store owner wasn't interested in pursuing Silly Putty, so Hodgson split off on his own. In 1950 Hodgson bought a huge glob of the stuff for $147 and hired a Yale student to separate it into one ounce balls and put it into plastic eggs, perhaps because Easter was coming up. Several months later when Silly Putty was mentioned in the "Talk of the Town" section of the New Yorker magazine, Hodgson's phone rang off the hook and he collected a quarter million orders in only four days. A few years later, he was racking up sales of over six million dollars annually. Hodgson was soon a millionaire. • Today, Binney & Smith, owners of Crayola, own the rights to Silly Putty.
It comes in 16 different colors including glow-in-the-dark, glitter, metallic gold, and hot fl ourescent colors. There's also Silly Putty that changes color depending on the temperature of your hands. You can even buy a fi ve-pound block of Silly Putty for only $79. • In 2001 Silly Putty was inducted into the National Toy Hall of Fame located in Salem, Oregon. In addition, one of the original Silly Putty eggs is on display at the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History.• Binny & Smith sponsored a contest asking people to submit their silliest uses for Silly Putty. The winner suggested using it to replace your stockbroker by throwing a ball of it at the stock page in the newspaper and investing in whatever stock it lifts from the newsprint. Second place went to the woman who said it could be used to form a fake swollen gland to get out of an unwanted date. • What exactly is Silly Putty made of? Mostly it’s dimethyl siloxane, hydroxy-terminated plymers with boric acid. Add in a little thixotrol ST, a dash of polydimethylsiloxane, a pinch of decamethyl cyclopentasiloxane, and top it off with titanium dioxide, and that’s about all there is to it. • You can make your own sort-of silly putty at home by mixing two
tablespoons of Borax and adding it to one cup of water, mixing well. Seperately add half a cup of water to half a cup of white glue. Next add half a cup of your Borax solution to the glue and water mixture. Mix well and store in a plastic bag.• It’s fl ammable and burns slowly with a bright white light. Microwaved for a few minutes, it becomes excessively sticky but reverts to its original form when it cools. It smells horrible when baked.
SILLY PUTTY
Queen Victoria holds the title of the longest reigning monarch in the United Kingdom. She ruled from 1837-1901; for 63 years and 7 months. The current queen, Queen Elizabeth II, has been in power for almost 61 years.• Born on May 24, 1819, at Kensington Palace in London, Victoria was the only child of Prince Edward (Duke of Kent) and Princess Victoria Mary Louisa of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld. Christened “Alexandrina Victoria” and called “Drina” by her family, the future queen’s formal name from birth was Her Royal Highness Princess Victoria of Kent.• Queen Victoria’s father died when she was only eight months old. Her mother was very protective and she was taught at home. Her fi rst language was German but she was taught to speak French and English when she was only three years old. (Later in life she also learned to speak Hindustani since she became ruler of India.) She studied history, geography and the Bible and was taught to play the piano and to paint. • Victoria was the granddaughter of George III and inherited the throne from her uncle William IV. Her father was one of four sons of George III but since none of his brothers had legitimate children in line for the throne, she became William IV’s successor. Victoria was elevated to the throne at the young age of 18, with her coronation held a year later on June 28, 1838. • When Queen Victoria was 21 years old she married German Prince Albert, who was her cousin. In her fi rst years as queen her main advisers were her Prime Minister Lord Melbourne and her uncle, King Leopold of Belgium. • After marrying Prince Albert, he became her major confi dant and advisor. He helped her learn to rule in the constitutional role where the monarchy had much infl uence but the powers were mostly with Parliament.• The British Empire became very powerful during Queen Victoria’s reign. She ruled about one quarter of the world’s landmass and approximately one quarter of the world’s population;
about 450 million people. The land under British rule was so large that many said “the sun never set on the British Empire.” It stretched around the globe from Canada to the Caribbean, Australia, New Zealand, Africa and India. India was considered the “Jewel in the Crown” and Queen Victoria was given the title of Empress of India in 1876. • Queen Victoria’s long reign became known as the Victorian era: a time of great industrial, scientifi c, political, military, and trade advancement for Great Britain. • The Queen and Prince Albert had 9 children and 42 grandchildren. The queen was called “Grandmother of Europe,” by managing the marriages of her children and grandchildren into other European royal families. • When Prince Albert died in 1861, Queen Victoria mourned, rarely seen in public, for about ten years. Known as the “Widow of Windsor,” she wore black for the remaining 40 years of her reign. She
was the last monarch of the House of Hanover. • Her son, Albert Edward, became King Edward VII at her death in 1901. King Edward was the fi rst monarch of the House of Windsor, which is still in power today. Queen Elizabeth II and her husband, the Duke of Edinburgh, are both great-great-grandchildren of Queen Victoria.

Is it all in Your Head?Is it all in Your Head? Headaches are debilitating at best. You can't concentrate, irritability sets in, and often they become an accepted way of life. Pain relievers are sold by the billions as the treatment for headaches. These usually do little to treat the actual cause, but rather, attempt to reduce the symptoms. The "pill to next headache loop" is truly something much of society is caught up in. There are many causes of headaches; injury, sinus trouble, spinal curvature, allergies just to name a few. Do you ever wake up with a headache? This type is often the result of improper posture while sleeping, or a chronic neck problem. Positioning your neck and head while you are sleeping is very important. The wrong position or pillow can injure muscles, bones, and nerves and can be the source of the wake-up headache. We are living in constantly changing and stressful times, and stress is one of the major causes of headaches. Whether physical or emotional, stress produces muscle tension that puts pressure on nerves, thus, and not surprising, headache pain. Finding lasting relief will not be found in the pain relief section of the drugstore. Persistant and re-occuring headache pain should be investigated to determine the source. You do not have to live with the pain and constant trips to the medicine cabinet. Call us today to fi nd out what you can do to fi nd relief. Dr. Patrick Lambert. 1-888-287-6328

The Race is always onNever Leave it
Offi cially opened January 04 of 2010, the Burj Dubai is the tallest building made by the humans hand at 1053 ft. Boasting the world's fi rst Armani hotel on the bottom fl oors, the Burj Dubai Tower also houses 900 Dubai residences, 37 fl oors of offi ce space, a fi ne dining restaurant and an observation deck on the 124th fl oor.The Burj is far taller than the previous record, the Taipei 101 Tower, in Taiwan with 509m. The building can be viewed from 95km away, is covered with 26,000 glass panels
and the estimate cost for the Burj Khalifa was about US$1.5 billion.Unfurnished.Sure, the Burj Dubai tower looks amazingly tall, but it's fi nal height— currently projected to be 2,300 feet— is less than half that of a new building planned for Saudi Arabia. It's going to be 5,250 feet high. Yup, that's just 30 feet short of a mile tall: taller than anything under construction anywhere, and making it easily the world's tallest building. Think they should stick a TV antenna on the top and go for that extra 30 feet? I sure do.It's going to be built in a new city near Jeddah on the Red Sea and is funded by billionaire Prince al-Walid bin Talal. He bought London's Savoy hotel for a cool $2.5 billion in 2005. So you can suspect that there'll be a hotel in the building somewhere. By my calculations, the tower will have somewhere between 320 and 350 fl oors, so perhaps that should be "several hotels".
