St. Joseph supports alternative ALS research in ice bucket challenge

Posted: Published on August 30th, 2014

Citing moral objections to embryonic stem cell research, one school in Conway is opting for a different approach to the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) ice bucket challenge. Instead of donating to the ALS Association, which utilizes embryonic stem cell research, St. Joseph School is sending its donations to the Saint John Paul II Medical Research Institute in Iowa City, Iowa, a research organization that calls itself pro-life. Nicole Rappold, development director at St. Joseph, said the fundraising efforts toward ALS research are going to an organization that ethically uses adults rather than embryos to research potential regenerative medication. In order to have the embryonic stem cell, you would have to have an abortion, Rappold said. ALS, commonly known as Lou Gehrigs disease, is a neurological disease that attacks nerve cells, causing a gradual decline in motor neurons necessary to carry out basic movements of the arms, legs and body. The Saint John Paul II institutes website states that there is a complete lack of beneficence since there is ultimate harm to the embryo, and there are no safeguards to protect the embryo from harm or an effort to create any benefit to the embryo.

John and Jazzy: a pawsitive Canberra Times Fun Run team.

Posted: Published on August 30th, 2014

John Barlow and his guide dog Jazzy will be taking part in the five kilometre walk. Photo: Jamila Toderas Jazzy may look like a lovable labrador to some, but to John Barlow she is his eyes and his Ferrari. Mr Barlow lost most of his sight to an inherited eye condition retinitis pigmentosa and was matched with his guide dog about two months ago. Since then, they have become inseparable. "Jazzy is my very first guide dog and before that, I was a long-term white cane user. She goes a lot quicker than a white cane," Mr Barlow said. Advertisement " She's my Ferrari. We go walking because I'm very fit and like to do something very athletic every day and she's very fast. There's a bike path behind my house and we go up and down there like there's no tomorrow. "They say a dog is a man's best friend. Well that's certainly very true. When she's out of her harness and she's fed or had time to play, she really does go back into being a little dog." Mr Barlow, who works for Elders Real Estate in Belconnen, spoke warmly of the positive influence Jazzy has had on … Continue reading →

Williams Revjuva Center Brings Micro-Needling to Latham

Posted: Published on August 30th, 2014

Latham, New York (PRWEB) August 29, 2014 Williams Rejuva Center is pleased to announce the addition of Micro-Needling services in their Latham aesthetic office. Dr. Edwin Williams, known for his use of cutting-edge technology, is one of the first surgeons in the area to employ the Eclipse Micropen Micro-Needling device. The innovative technique is faster and safer than similar products available on the market today. Micro-Needling is a noninvasive procedure, designed to dramatically improve the appearance, using the bodys natural healing ability. The Eclipse Micropen holds 12 tiny needles within its tip. During treatment, the device is gently directed over a targeted area of tissue. The resulting micro-injuries will encourage the skins production of collagen and elastin, improving both tone and texture. An application of daily growth factors will enhance the effect of this treatment. The Eclipse Micropen can dramatically improve the appearance of acne scars, stretch marks, hyperpigmentation, and fine lines. The treatment will also increase the effectiveness of topical gels, creams, and serums, as it creates small, superficial punctures in the skins surface. Micro-Needling can be used on almost any area, including the face, neck, arms, hands, legs, abdomen and back. The results can be expected to last … Continue reading →
