From the Editor:
Cheers all and happy week end.
It's Friday once again and this Friday I am actually off having a little fun in Bean-town. I came to Boston to take my mother out for a good time as an early Christmas present. So I suppose it's a pretty big Christmas present to myself as well. So I do hope you enjoy this weeks news and drop me a line if there's anything you think I'm missing.
Happy weekend!

Greetings Dear Ones,
Do what you love and the money will follow...
This quote has gotten more people in trouble that any one idea. It is the equivalent of "The streets in America are paved with gold."
As Seth Godin, author of "Tribes" and
various other books on marketing writes on his blog: "Maybe you can't make money
doing what you love..."
His point being that when you try to monetize the work that you love you will probably corrupt it and many have.
In today's world we have a glut of information on how to do...well, just about anything...but what people really need, and what you have to offer, is a special kind of relationship with someone (in this case you) to be a source of leadership and guidance in their lives.
Don't neglect the importance of your relational abilities and the impact you can have on your clients and community!
Many blessings to your success,
Dr. Eric

News of Interest!
China's fattest man loses half his weight through acupuncture
- A 34-year-old man from Beijing has gone from 38 stone to 19 in just one year
apparently because of a strict acupuncture regime. Chang Yang, a 5'6" former
mechanic, won the title of the Fattest Man in China in 2007 and was fired from
his job at a steel company because of his enormous size. In an interview with
the Chinese state media, Mr Chang said he had to turn sideways to go through
doors, took up three seats on the bus and was teased by taxi drivers. "They said
I was tilting the balance of the car," he
said. Placebo Acupuncture Tied to Higher IVF Pregnancies - Study
says treatment, similar to acupressure, may boost uterus receptivity. Compared
to real acupuncture, placebo acupuncture was associated with significantly
higher overall pregnancy rates among women undergoing in-vitro fertilization
(IVF), says a University of Hong Kong study. In real acupuncture, fine needles
are inserted into particular points on the body. In placebo acupuncture, blunt
needles that look identical to real acupuncture needles retract into the handle
of the needle when pressed on the skin, but still give the sensation and
appearance of entering the skin. Health funds billed for brothel sex in New South Wales -
Health funds have been paying rebates to members who get massages with a "happy
ending" in Sydney brothels a fraud investigation has found. The sexual services
which cost $60 were billed as a massage or as acupuncture and attracted a health
fund rebate of $40. An undercover investigation has resulted in about 80 massage
services in Sydney being deregistered by health funds for fraudulent practices.
Get the needle for a rapid recovery - Rising numbers of poorly
patients are being treated in a Swansea hospital with an ancient medical
practice to help aid their recovery. Acupuncture is now being used trust-wide to
help people, even those who have undergone major heart surgery. The Trust says
it may not be a replacement for more conventional medicine, but it can help deal
with problems such as nausea, vomiting and headaches. The treatment offers
another option when traditional methods fail to have the desired effect. Gemma
Chesterfield, a senior physiotherapist at Morriston Hospital, who has offered
the acupuncture service to patients, said: "I'm finding that acupuncture is
being requested more and
more.
