Judge Restores Life's
Chiropractic Accreditation
In a stunning decision
U.S. District Senior
Judge Charles A. Moye Jr. restored Life University's CCE
accreditation. That was the result of a lawsuit by the school against the
CCE in January.
Life's accreditation with CCE will remain in effect until a lawsuit by Life
against the accrediting agency is resolved.
The lawsuit is expected to proceed over the next several months or longer. In the lawsuit, Life contends the chiropractic accrediting agency acted unfairly in revoking the program's status. The actual lawsuit can be viewed by visiting the "Doctors for Excellence in Chiropractic Education" website at www.dece.org .
The breaking news is being reported on most Atlanta news services. As the story is reported you can follow the stories by viewing the DC2BE website at www.dc2be.com. At the release of this Information Age Newsletter we do not have quotes from CCE, Dr. DeSpain (current president of Life) or Dr. Sid Williams (founder of Life). As these become available, they will be posted on the www.dc2be.com website.
New
Beginnings and ICPA Join forces for Big Event
New Beginnings, the chiropractic philosophy meeting that draws hundreds and is held three times a year, is teaming up with The International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA) in an extravaganza event. These two groups are partnering for the first time for a blockbuster program emphasizing chiropractic philosophy and chiropractic for children.
This meeting to be held in the Ocean Place Conference Resort, an oceanfront hotel in Long Branch New Jersey, is guaranteed to have something for everyone in attendance. The list of speakers at this event is very impressive and reads like a who's-who in chiropractic. The list includes Drs. Guy Reikeman, Maxine McMullin, Claudia Anrig, Jeanne Ohm, Tedd Koren, Jim Thompson, Anthony Carino, Jim Dubel, Charles Ward, Pasquale Cerasoli, Tony DeMarco, Jay Handt, Bob Tarantino, Eric Plasker, Eddy Cohen, Peter Kevorkian, Patti Giuliano, Nick Spano, Sue Brown, Marty Rosen, Len Schwartz, Armand Rossi, Arno Burnier, Kevin Donka, Ernie Landi and myself. Also presenting will be Charles "Tremendous" Jones, Bill Esteb and Suzanne Arms.
It
is advisable to register early and make your hotel reservations soon as the
hotel will fill up fast. You can find more information about this
spectacular program at their websites ICPA -

New Now You Know Features Now Active
We at Now You Know have committed to keeping our subscribers at the cutting edge of new communications technology. We have listened to what our subscribers have asked for and we have responded. We are very proud to offer two new features to our services that are groundbreaking. These new features allow our doctors to keep in touch with their patients faster and easier than ever before. Below are descriptions of the new features.
Self-Update Website Pages: Now our website subscribers will be able to Self-Update certain portions of their websites in real-time, by themselves. This means that our subscribers will be able to make
changes on their own website and have them show up instantly! This gives them the ability to post daily announcements, office news, or other time sensitive events immediately. Of course, we still have a full complement of skilled webmasters ready to make updates on all other areas of our subscribers websites. But for those who want to make simple quick announcements or updates, this new feature will be a quick and efficient way to stay up-to-the-minute with your patients.
Self-Mailer Feature: Now NYK Newsletter subscribers will be able to send out their own email announcements using their secure patient list. With our new NYK Self-Mailer feature, subscribers can now send one secure email to one address and that email will be propagated to their entire patient email list so that each person on that list gets a single email. This allows doctors to easily and securely send messages out to their entire patient base as often as they would like to. This new feature is revolutionary, and will make NYK Newsletter subscribers the most up-to-date professionals in healthcare.
Imagine sending an email to your entire patient list about an upcoming event at your office. Then imagine these patients having the ability to go to your website and see more about that event from updates you have made to your website that day! This is the type of instant communications you can have with your patients with the NYK website and newsletter services. Other uses include the ability to send out emails about office closings and also post those instantly on your website. You can even respond instantly to news items that may appear in your local paper or on television. The applications and possibilities are endless when you have the ability to communicate instantly with your patients. Only Now You Know offers the chiropractic profession these advanced features! Visit our newly designed website at www.nowyouknow.net for more information.
