I travel around to a lot of seminars. I wish I had a dollar (used to be a nickel but inflation set in) for every time I heard a doctor on a platform say something about getting their start at DE, or how DE changed their life. However, the next inevitable question is, "Is DE still around?" Well, the answer to that is, YES! Over the past several years, and with all the upheaval at Life University, DE (Dynamic Essentials, for those of you who may not have heard of it), has taken a back seat. Numbers dwindled and many of the main-stay speakers stopped attending. However, over the past year, there seems to be a return and resurgence going on. The basic format of the meetings is the same as it has been for decades, but some new faces, intermingled with some stalwarts have added new energy and (dare I say) "Life" back into these meetings. Some of the new speakers include notables such as the world's highest volume practitioner, Dr. Rob Schiffman. Also, some familiar faces have returned such as Dr. Jim Sigafoose, and even myself (after a long absence). The numbers are not what they were a decade ago when a few thousand would jam themselves into a room to hear the speakers, but the numbers are growing again over the past several meetings.
Maybe it's just persistence, or maybe it is the strength of what DE has stood for for decades, but Dr. Sid Williams seems to be making a comeback with DE. The next meeting will be held in Atlanta on November 16-19, 2006. For further information please see their website at www.lifede.com.

Now You Know Going to Congress?
Seeing a need in the profession, we have responded and created specific websites and services for chiropractic associations. We also realize that most all associations need to spend their dues dollars on a multitude of important projects. Having been involved in a number of state and national associations, we know how scarce and precious financial resources are. It is for this reason that we offer our services to chiropractic organizations for FREE !!! That's right free! We at Now You Know feel compelled to give back to the profession for all that it has done for us. All that is requested in this exchange is a courtesy booth for Now You Know at your regularly scheduled functions. We also understand the special needs of an association website, and we have created special features designed to help. The list of special features that associations can have through a NYK website include:
So if you or your state association representative are attending the COCSA meeting in Baltimore on November 8-12, 2006, stop by our booth and see what we have to offer. You can get more information on this meeting at their website at: www.cocsa.org.

Now You Know "Endorses Straighten Up America" Straighten Up America is a free program designed for Doctors of Chiropractic to participate in. They provide an array of tools so that doctors can help their patients become healthier as well as share with others in your practice and/or community. From their own website at www.straightenupamerica.org, they state, " Straightenupamerica.org is a public service website maintained in collaboration with the Congress of Chiropractic State Associations and Life University. Straighten Up America functions in cooperation with the United States Bone and Joint Decade and we are proud to be a 50th Anniversary Partner to Get America Moving, an initiative of the President’s Council on Physical Fitness and Sports during its fiftieth anniversary year (1956-2006)."
