It goes something like this: “I felt like it was all about them, like what was going on inside of me was sort of invisible, like what they wanted or needed always came first.” They go on and on describing a family dynamic that circulated around the immediate needs of the addict. They talk about how they often found themselves staying quiet and well behaved so as not to disturb a drunk or hung-over parent or bring a torrent of anger down on them. They also describe a world in which their other parent was constantly over-burdened; hiding the extent of the problem and working double time to make the family seem “normal”....

Additionally, the iPhone can display important information about the wheelchair, such as the battery charge state, speed, seat adjustment, and heading direction. All this is communicated via Bluetooth between the iPhone and the wheelchair. The new version of the iPortal system will be unveiled at Rehacare 2010 in Dusseldorf, Germany, next month.

MitchellIn the private sector, no business owner would be dumb enough to assume that higher prices automatically translate into proportionately higher revenues. If McDonald’s boosted hamburger prices by 30 percent, for instance, the experts at the company would fully expect that sales would decline. Depending on the magnitude of the drop, total revenue might still climb, but by far less than 30 percent. And it’s quite possible that the company would lose revenue. In the public sector, however, there is very little understanding of how the real world works. Here’s a Reuters story I saw on Tim Worstall’s blog, which reveals that Bulgaria and Romania both are losing revenue after increasing tobacco taxes. Cash-strapped Bulgaria and Romania hoped taxing cig...

The Capitol Hill bureaucracy basically has a deficit-über-alles view of fiscal policy. CBO’s long-run perspective, as shown by this excerpt, is that deficits reduce output by “crowding out” private capital and that anything that results in lower deficits (or larger surpluses) will improve economic performance — even if this means big increases in tax rates. CBO has also examined an alternative fiscal scenario reflecting several changes to current law that are widely expected to occur or that would modify some provisions of law that might be difficult to sustain for a ...

It won’t come as a surprise that people on the right tended to give lower estimates and folks on the left had higher guesses. Donald Luskin of National Review estimated 19 percent, for instance, while Emmanuel Saez, Dean Baker, Bruce Bartlett, and Brad DeLong all gave answers around 70 percent. There are two things that are worth noting. First, every single answer is to the right of the Joint Committee on Taxation. The revenue-estimators on Capitol Hill assume that taxes have no impact on overall economic performance. As such, even confiscatory tax rates have very little impact on taxable income. The ...

MitchellLike the swallows returning to Capistrano, the Congressional Budget Office follows a predictable pattern of endorsing policies that result in bigger government. During the debate about the so-called stimulus, for instance, CBO said more spending and higher deficits would be good for the economy. It then followed up that analysis by claiming that the faux stimulus worked even though millions of jobs were lost. Then, during the Obamacare debate, CBO actually claimed that a giant new entitlement program would reduce deficits. Now that tax increases are the main topic (because of the looming expiration of the 2001 and 2003 tax bills), CBO has done a 180-degree turn and has published a document discussing the negative consequences of too much deficits and debt.

MitchellThe Wall Street Journal has an excellent editorial this morning on the obscure — but critically important — issue of measuring what happens to tax revenue in response to changes in tax policy. This is sometimes known as the dynamic scoring versus static scoring debate and sometimes referred to as the Laffer Curve controversy. The key thing to understand is that the Joint Committee on Taxation (which produces revenue estimates) assumes that even big changes in tax policy have zero macroeconomic impact. Adopt a flat tax? The JCT assumes no effect on the economic performance. Double tax rates? The JCT assumes no impact on growth. The JCT does include a few microeconomic effects into its revenue-estimating models (an increase in gas taxes, for instance, w...

Static and closed VS. dynamic and sharing From growing up in Norway, located in the very northern part of Europe, I have always been fascinated with the strong cultural difference between the people of Southern Europe and Northern Europe.  Most people consider us from the cold north to be more static, closed and harder to get to know, while the people of the warmer south are perceived to be much more dynamic, caring and easy to get to know.  No social anthropology degree needed, just trust me.

Bush. The author asserted in this article that, “The deficit explosion on his watch was a nasty surprise for Ronald Reagan not a deliberate strategy to reduce government.  In his rosy interpretation of Laffer curve theory, the personal tax cuts he promoted in 1981 would deliver higher not lower revenues through their boost to economic growth.” The first sentence is an interesting interpretation, since many leftists believe that Reagan deliberately created deficits to make it more difficult for Democrats in Congress to increase spending.

While still regularly taught and practiced, it’s a therapeutic style that’s largely fallen out of favor in the U.S. with the rise of shorter-term therapies, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which typically have a stronger research base. New research published yesterday in JAMA (the Journal of the American Medical Association) suggests that, in a large-scale meta-analysis of 23 previously published studies on the efficacy of psychodynamic therapy, it can be a very effective therapeutic technique, especially in complex cases (such as those involving a personality disorder).

In flexion MR studies, we can see the striking and pathognomonic picture of anterior shifting of posterior dura at the lower cervical spinal canal and prominent epidural venous plexus. In non-flexion studies, we find that asymmetric cord atrophy, especially at the lower cervical cord, though subtle, is highly suggestive of Hirayama disease. When it is seen, a flexion MR study is warranted to prove this diagnosis.

Yet when higher education ignores the wonders of acting on or applying ideas … entire education systems soon struggle from flawed visions. Have you seen it happen?If you agree that practice leads to excellent performances … you’d likely also concur that learning should be the clarion call to apply or act out dynamic insights. Do universities in your area spike or stunt learning?To act on a good idea … is to wire the human brain’s plasticity to do more of it … and to do it better.  Toss multiple intelligences into the mix … and you up the ante for golden applications that draw from hidden or unused talent. How so? Ima...

This film is about a young girl’s challenges to cope with her mother’s progressing Alzheimer’s disease. The video was a submission to YouTube’s “Project Direct”, a competition for film creators who have “something to say”. I appreciated this video because it seems pretty accurate compared to experiences I’ve had with Alzheimer’s patients and their family members. However, one curious thing about the film was the age of the child in the video. I suppose that as women are having children later in life, it’s possible that children as young as the girl depicted in this video would have to deal with their primary caregiver suffering from something as dynamic as Alzheimer�...
