The patient who passively waits for advice and direction from the physician is more likely to forget instructions, make excuses for failures, lack the discipline to lose the needed weight or stay on the required diet, and so forth. Patients themselves, not their doctors, must be the ones to make the essential decisions about their health. They must be able to obtain the necessary information t...

The self-annointed “king of all media” may have stepped off the throne in doing so. Them’s the breaks in the competitive media marketplace, contorted as it is by government speech controls. Some would argue that a new king of all media is seeking the mantle of power now that the Obama administration is ensconced and friendly majorities hold the House and Senate. The new pretender is the federal government. And some would argue that the Free Press “Changing Media Summit” held yesterday here in Washington laid the groundwork for a new federal takeover of media and communications. That person is not me. But I am concerned by the enthusiasm of many groups in Wa...

The main stream media has, as always, tried to stay aloof from what they have dismissed as a internecine blog war between Guido, Iain Dale and Derek Draper.  It was far more than that. Derek Draper was dishonest with an overinflated c.v. but both he and Damien McBride had the Prime Minister’s ear. McBride was playing a major role in an underhand Labour Party smear campaign that was to be directed, with Draper's help, against leading members of the Conservative Party. And Nadine DorriesThe power of the i...

Oh, my God! We've got to do something now.' ' Boortz also said, 'And it's not just me, you're doing the same thing to [right-win...

I thought at first that it was a spoof. But it is not.One of the final signs of political psychosis is when you start to believe your own propaganda.The video, and a question and answer session with Andy, is not as you might expect a lampoon on WebCameron. It is for real and has been published on the Labour Party website.I defy you to keep your face straight. And then you can move onto the Q & A session, from which I present two (outrageously) edited excerpts. What a joy!Mr Tucker, Maidstone askedDo you think a wait of 31 weeks to see a physiotherapist for treatment at Maidstone Hospital for an ongoing Tennis elbow problem is acceptable? I don't. I have had to pay private...

Are their social skills so dodgy that they’re unaware that you just ‘don’t do’ that kind of a thing? Yes, a rhetorical question of course, but it still pulls you up short when it happens again.I adopt the composed demeanour of a woman in control. My stiff upper lip may be numb but my teeth are chain linked into rigidity. It has the effect of making me feel fully corseted. I glide to the first class room to await junior. I glide so as to avoid any vibrations that might inadvertently make my head rattle. I come to a dignified halt and pause just as one of his Aides emerges from the class room in a hurry. “Are you o.k.?” she asks with genuine concern, “yo...
