Fed Shifts Attention from 2.1% PCE Inflation to Theoretical Wage Inflation in Services
Alan ReynoldsThe last Federal Open Market Committee meeting projected PCE inflation to slow to 2.1% by the end of 2025. Yet 2.1% turned out to be the actual average inflation rate in the second half of 2022. Rather than applaud that performance, Chairman Powell and other Fed officials have been changing the subject —away from prices toward wages, and to a suspicious subset of prices that excludes all good news about prices of goods and energy and future rent data in favor of “core services less housing.”“Fed Chair Jerome Powell and several colleagues shifted attention recently toward a narrower subset of labor ...

Employee Compensation Rose Just 3% in the Fourth Quarter
Alan ReynoldsThe fourth quarter ’s 3% year‐to‐year increase in hourly wages and benefits was lower than the 3.7% average increase since 1987, and even lower than the 3.1% norm during the horrific 2008 recession. That casts considerable doubt on the notion that inviting another inverted yield curve recession is a const ructive way to bring inflation down. Patience is working fine.Federal Reserve officials have been downplaying the 2.1% PCE inflation rate of the past six months by (1) expressing concern about select pieces of that average, and (2) suggesting that a generous seasonal adjustment (to statisticall...

Producer Price Inflation Averaged One Percent for Eight Months
Alan ReynoldsThe PPI measures prices received by U.S. businesses for final demand.It has one big advantage over the CPI —the PPI doesnot include the extremely misleading old lagged BLS surveys of rent and estimates of “owner‐equivalent” rent. Such “shelter” accounts for a third of the CPI, which makes it a very serious issue indeed.Althoughmarket rents have been falling since last summer, BLS estimates of rents on old and new leases still keep soaring in CPI monthly reports —at a 9.6 percent annual rate for the past three months!That statistical snafu made inflation in 2021 looklower than it really was,...

Warning about Ketamine in the American Journal of Psychiatry
The dissociative anesthetic and ravey club drug ketamine has been hailed as a possible “miracle” cure for depression. In contrast to the delayed action of standard antidepressants such as SSRIs, the uplifting effects of Special K are noticeable within an hour. “Experimental Medication Kicks Depression in Hours Instead of Weeks,” says the National Institute of Mental Health. NIMH has been bullish on ketamine for years now. Prominent researchers Duman and Aghajanian called it the “the most important discovery in half a century” in a recent Science review.But in 2010, I pondered whether this use of ketamine...

If You Can ’ t Cure Me, Get Back to Living
By ALAN PITT
Several months ago I had a conversation with Dr. Robert Spetzler, the Director of the Barrow Neurological Institute. During our interview Dr. Spetzler mentioned that the patient needs to become captain of their own ship. I agree. Although most of us (as patients) would like someone to step in and care for us when we’re sick, rising costs and limited providers make it impossible for the healthcare industry to meet America’s expectations for care. Healthcare needs patient partners.
But in all fairness, I thought to ask a patient what they need. So, with the start of 2017, I thought to ask turned to someone ...

It's Official: DSM 5 is a Pissing Contest
First, I want to tell you that I have a conflict of interest when it comes to discussing both Dr. Kupfer and Dr. Frances: they were both my teachers, and they are people I hold in esteem. Dr. Kupfer ran a summer program in psychiatry for college students, the Mellon Fellowship in Psychiatry for Undergraduates, and in the summer of 1983, as a college student aspiring to go to medical and become a psychiatrist, I was one of 8 students from across the country to receive one of these grants. It was an opportunity that opened doors for me and changed my life, and I remember Dr. Kupfer as a warm, kind teacher and I remain ...

Clean Your Stuff
Alan starts each shift with a ritual of cleaning. I should be clear that I don’t use the word ritual as a literary device. Alan’s morning ambulance cleaning is as systematic and well thought out as any religious ceremony. Over the course of a few months of working together I learned the routine well.
Checking through my medical kit I’d observe him start at the back doors of the rig, spraying and wiping the outside door handles and then opening the doors and wiping the insides. Then he would climb inside wiping handles, pram rails and anything people might habitually grab for support. The overhead rails al...

#17 What Every Medical Practice Needs to Know about Web Design Pediatric Practice Management AwesomeCast
For today’s Pediatric Awesome-Cast Chip and I sit down with Alan Houser of Squareflair. Alan is a web designer. He and I worked together on Salud Pediatrics’ website.
I really enjoyed working with Alan. I’ve also enjoyed talking with him. We’ve had some interesting conversations ranging from web design (of course), to managing a small business, to how our wive’s use the iPad.
So I thought, why don’t we bring Alan on the AwesomeCast so we could talk about web design, some of the pitfalls people run into when designing their web sites and what are the things we could all do to make better ...

How five-year-old boys build imaginary worlds together
I remember, aged five or so, a friend and I were the cool police motorcyclists from the TV show CHiPs. Our props were limited to the usual paraphernalia of a suburban home and yet somehow both of us knew when the other person was on foot or on his Kawasaki motorbike, which routes through the house were motorways, where the baddies were located, and most important, we both understood the plot of our game.For a new study, a team of psychologists in Australia has taken an interest in the conversation that allows this kind of coordinated imaginary game-play between childhood friends. Frances Hoyte and her colleagues video...
