their fullest extent. To gradually alkalise the system. This in turn improves oxygenation and mitochondrial activity, and counteracts free radicals in the most fundamental way, by supplying free-electrons. Mag Sea Ionics simply add 5ml to a glass of water. This will provide many ionic minerals and trace-elements including magnesium as |
Magnesium Chloride. This is essential for correct cell energy production, and hence all repair and correct function of the bodies organs and systems. So, these are typical remedies to begin at once. You should also, from the start, improve diet and introduce Celtic Ocean Sea Salt , also ensure you |
have the correct raw oils in your diet as detailed above. Add Zell Immunocomplex to restore mitochondrial function, aid detoxification, improve oxygenation and strengthen the whole system. Month 3 - Onwards Add Deep Cell Detox for at least 4 to 5 months. (This is also a general high quality nutritional |
support) After at least 6 months, if your condition has improved and maintained the same level, i.e. no further improvement for a period of 2 months or more, then you can experiment with withdrawing the Immuncalm or Kalawalla capsules. A month after this you can experiment with reducing B12 lozenges |
frequency, e.g. one every 4 days. Watch carefully for any deterioration in your condition, and if there is a deterioration re-introduce one remedy such as the Immucalm or B12 to see if improvement again sets in. If all infections are not eliminated after 4 months, or on an experimental basis |
Add Colloidal Silver to supply another tool against any known or unknown infections that may not have been eliminated by the Vitalyza 3, but do keep up the Vitalyza 3 to continue to act as an alkaliser and anti-oxidant agent plus its other beneficial properties. Zell Immucomplex, Mag Sea Ionics, |
Celtic Ocean Sea Salt, Vitalyza 3 and the correct raw oils are measures that should be held on a permanent basis, to maintain the balance of the bodies functioning and hence well-being. If cost is an issues with the Zell Immunocomplex then it is better to reduce the dose after |
a few months rather than discontinue altogether. Dose can be temporarily increased during waves of detoxification that can occur on any healing program at any time. Again we need to add that this is just a general guide for you use, you should take advice of a qualified health care |
professional and you can of course use your own knowledge about your own body as a guide, but it is usually good to check these out by contacting us or other health care practitioner. The above suggested supplements are selected for their relevance to autoimmune disorders and specifically to the |
treatment of progressive paralytic diseases of the nervous system. We have designed this program to be as simple as possible on one hand but to provide the most comprehensive program on the other hand that systematically targets all the causes of the diseases to give the best possible outcome. We |
have not mentioned the use of generally supportive nutrients for the system such as Vitamin C, green super-foods and so on. These are discussed in the article The Core Regime . One of the supplements discussed in the article is Multi-Green Nutrition . This contains vitamin C, Barley Grass juice |
powder, Sea greens and other nutrients, that is a sensible general support. Any gaps in your nutritional profile can reduce the healing process. Removal of Blocks to Health, Healing and Wellness We have defined the major blocks to health improvement which should be considered the number one priority for resolution |
before one goes on to a more specific healing regimen such as that detailed in the programme above. By removing these blocks one will feel stronger and more prepared for a specific programme and will achieve far greater success with it. Please read this essential article here The Autoimmune Protocol |
Not all of the remedies listed here will neccessarily be needed. We strive to bring you the most effective remedies to resolve your health problems in the simplest supplemental regime possible. We aim to treat the actual root causes of health problems holistically rather than supply remedies that will give |
temporary or partial relief from only the symptoms. This has been our mission since the founding of Regenerative Nutrition in 1994. As we uncover more fundamental truths about the causes, and therefore the relief, of diseases and health problems we update and revise our product range and recommendations. Above, we |
detail targeted remedy recommendations for Multiple Sclerosis (+MCS,ME,ALS,MND,CFS), but we further suggest that you view the autoimune protocol article and supplement pages by clicking here To achieve overall good health and long term resolution of this health problem the remedies selected here should be combined with the autoimmune protocol remedies |
for the best results. It may well be that there is some overlap and that many of the remedies in the autoimmune protocol are listed here also. If you need any assistance in selecting the most suitable remedies, or have any questions, please Contact Us |
This chapter presents and evaluates a Web 2.0 Learning Design Framework that can be used to develop pre-service teachers' learning design capabilities. The framework integrates the TPACK model of educational practice, Anderson and Krathwohl's Taxonomy of learning, teaching and assessing, and different types of constructive and negotiated pedagogies, with a |
range of contemporary Web 2.0 based learning technologies. Pre-service teachers in a second year learning technology subject felt that the framework helped them to better understand the relationship between technology, pedagogy, and content, as well as create more effective learning designs for their students. Examples of student learning designs are |
used to illustrate the way that pre-service teachers applied the framework. Students' reflective responses to the framework are also used to explain how the Web 2.0 Learning Design Framework can be more effectively used to develop pre-service teachers' Web 2.0 learning design capabilities. |
Probably New Woodstock's most spectacular fires were the E.W. Gunn fire in October 1890, and the destruction of the mill of the New Woodstock Milling Company's property on Railroad Street on February 13, 1879, which wiped out another of the community's enterprises. The first of these conflagrations destroyed It originated in the store of E.W. Gunn on the northwest corner of the intersection of |
Main and Mill Street, shortly after noon on October 9, 1890, a sunny, Fall day. Mr. Gunn was producing his patented and popular wire tooth rakes. It burned west to the store and residence of Dr. A.D. Smith, (later owned by the Parker Drug Company & Lewis McManus), and north on Mill Street to the residence occupied by L. Smith. It resulted from the |
explosion of benzene. Mr. Gunn used the second floor as a workshop, while the lower floor was occupied by P.E. Jaquith as a general store. Mr. Gunn, with his hand in a tank of benzene, accidentally spilled some of it into a lamp and an explosion instantly occurred. Mr. Gunn was very badly burned. He was too much stunned to take instant measures to |
extinguish the fire, which immediately communicated with dry lumber stored overhead, and a first class conflagration was under way before anyone knew what had happened. So rapid was its progress that flames were bursting from the upper windows before the first alarm was sounded. It was evident that a big fire was on hand, and that the sources for fighting it were totally inadequate. |
At 2.30 P.M. a call for aid was telegraphed to Cazenovia, and in eighteen minutes their hook and ladder truck was run to the E.C.& N. (Elmira, Cortland & Northern Railroad) depot, having been loaded onto a flat car and made the run of six miles to Main Street of New Woodstock in six minutes. Because of the probable lack of water, only the |
hook and ladder was brought down. Further inspection indicated several cisterns available, so the locomotive was returned for the hand pump and hose. In eighteen minutes the equipment was on the scene. For all time these were the fastest runs over that section of the railroad. Engine No. 18 in charge of Conductor Shepherd made the run. The name of the daring engineer has |
not been ascertained. The run back to Cazenovia was made in six and a half minutes; the return to New Woodstock in about eight more. Chief Webber of New Woodstock was out of town and Dr. I.N. Goff was elected first assistant. George T. Atwell, who was on the train, directed vigorous measures which helped to stay the progress of the fire. A shed |
north of the burning block was torn down by the Hook and Ladder Company, and another between it and Dr. A.D. Smith's After a hard fight in which the local citizens fully participated, the fire was brought under control. Burned out, besides the corner store, was the meat market occupied by P.E. Jaquith, the hardware owned by Henry Rider, S.S. Hayes' boot and shoe |
store and residence, M.C. Wood's Justice Office, and the AOUW Lodge (Ancient Order of United Workmen) rooms. All except the corner building were owned by the estate of Benjamin Wightman, and were a total loss. The property remained as burned out cellar holes for several years. The exhausted firemen were given a substantial lunch, using an entire hurriedly emptied counter in the center of |
C.A. Fox's store. There is no record of thanks to the engineer or the dispatcher in Cortland who gave them the railroad. The E.C.& N. (Elmira, Cortland, and Northern Railroad) was notable for extending help to villages and shippers along its line. For a great many years by common consent each property owner kept a pail for the passing of water along a bucket |
brigade line. The call of "fire" was taken up by each person who heard it and spread rapidly through the community. An adjacent pond, creek, or cistern was depended upon for a water supply. Much of the efforts of the impromptu firemen were directed to the saving of the contents of the threatened buildings, or the adjacent properties, if any. In summer, dry shingled |
roofs added to the danger of a fire spreading. The cry of "Fire" has always been one of the most dismaying sounds to be heard in a small nineteenth and early twentieth century town. If an isolated building was involved, it was more often than not burned to its foundations. If the fire was in a structure in close proximity to another building, that |
more often than not was a complete loss. If the blaze was so located, the hastily assembled bucket brigade provided the only help of preventing its spread to other buildings. The distance from a creek, pond, or cistern determined the length of the bucket brigade and the number of people necessary for its operation. If a high wind was blowing the brigade had a |
lesser chance of controlling the fire. Fires originating in rural sections required more time for the citizens to organize and added to the difficulty of prompt response, so essential to the control of a blaze. About 1912 the formation and equipment of a fire department became the subject of an informal discussion of property owners, concerning the formation of a better source of fire |
protection. This discussion continued through 1913. Plans slowly developed along these lines. There developed a plan for the purchase of chemical equipment and the construction of a building in which to house it. Voluntary contribution was the only means available to finance such a step. There was informal discussion around the pot-bellied stoves where the male citizenry congregated. This led to a more formal |
meeting of the general public at Stoddard's Hall an January 13, 1914 to more thoroughly consider the proposal. This led to a demonstration of chemical hand drawn equipment by the American LaFrance Company in the ensuing summer. A plank shed of ancient vintage and absorbability was placed on Main Street in front of the hotel, and heavily saturated with kerosene oil. The soda operated, |
two wheeled apparatus then extinguished the fire which had been kindled and allowed to attain a good, vigorous blaze. The test must have been deemed satisfactory because two of American LaFrance forty gallon, hand drawn chemical engines were purchased at about six hundred dollars each. On June 18, 1914 the Department, known as the New Woodstock Chemical Fire Company, with twenty seven members, purchased |
land for the fire house, this being the little first building on Elm Street next to the hardware store. Payments were made entirely through public subscriptions. Trustees to manage the legal affairs of the company were Morillo Smith, George M. Thompson, and Gardner Freeborn. Most of the able bodied men of the village were members of the Department as originally constituted. The officers chosen |
were: I was often amazed by the rapidity with which an alarm was spread from end to end of the village. It was faster than the telephone when that instrument was available. The warning was not ignored by any able bodied man. The spirit of neighborliness and civic duty was paramount. Each available man, equipped with at least one pail or a ladder, appeared |
on the street in record time. All too often, however, the best efforts were limited to saving surrounding structures, and the contents of the burning building. Night fires in isolated locations sometimes destroyed half of a mill or other uninhabited building before it was discovered. Shops and mills were, in fact, the greatest victims of fires. The record of such destruction in New Woodstock |
is not unlike the experience of hundreds of small towns. Some disappeared as the result of the burning of a key industry. A full record of the economic changes brought about in this community are not available, but we know that conflagration here, ranging from the destruction of the wool carding and oil mill, erected in the 1830's and burned in 1864, to the |
Mew Woodstock Milling Company property lost on February 13, 1979, mark a tragic loss of business property. Samuel Baker's grist mill was carried away by high water in 1837. It was rebuilt, and burned in 1896, while owned by Randall and Wood. Sims' Flour and Feed Mill burned the same year. The Chair Factory burned in 1898. The first cheese factory in town burned |
twice. K.E. Cardner's mill was twice destroyed by fire. In more recent times the Cardner Box Factory and Seymour's Grist Mill were destroyed by arsonists, after each had closed operations. The formation of the New Woodstock Fire District was unusual then and now. Its inception was a fire at the Frank Damon residence on Erieville Road. At the time of its formation, fire districts |
were the only form of special district permitted by New York State law. Ours was one of the earlier districts organized and the only one in Madison County. That sunny fall day of the fire, William S. Huntley and Walter F. Mann were perched on an exposed beam, pouring a chemical stream on a stubborn fire in a partition, when the latter brought up |
the subject of a fire district and motorized apparatus. The next day E.E. Cummings was circulating among the residents a petition to the Board of Supervisors, required for the application for such formation. The required number of signatures was quickly obtained. The Board of Supervisors held a hearing in early 1928, as required by statute, on the question of the creation of a fire |
district in the First Election District of the Town of Cazenovia, and the northern end of the Town of DeRuyter, including Sheds. The Board recommended its formation. It is interesting to note that of the ninety nine people who appeared at the hearing, Mr. Mann is the sole survivor. The committee filed a favorable report on May 29, 1928, and the Board passed a |
resolution creating the district on August 7, 1928. This was one of the elements of a very good year for New Woodstock. A few years ago it appeared more space was needed, especially a heated meeting room and added space to serve meals, notably the annual beef supper, a fund raiser. An addition was made to the fire house, paid for by the fire |
department, with the new electric heat service being paid for by the fire district. Fire districts eventually were placed under the jurisdiction of Town Boards, as are all other special districts created by the State Legislature. That the system had its inception and development through the agency of the fire district is a matter of considerable interest. Realizing the dire need for a water |
system a group of citizens working through the fire district became responsible for the cost of construction, before the broadening of the state law made the development of a water district possible. In the Fall of 1929 the fire company undertook the work of installing such a system, to provide an adequate supply of water. It also assumed the burden of financing such construction. |
A dam site and water rights were purchased and a million gallon reservoir constructed. Water mains and hydrants were installed. When the water district was established, the Fire Department was reimbursed nearly nine thousand dollars to cover the cost of their advances to initiate construction. This same year a Buffalo five hundred gallon pumper was added to the equipment, with fifteen hundred feet of |
high pressure hose, gas masks, fire coats and boots. An engine house was erected at Sheds, and one of the chemical engines was located there. The department then had twenty four men, and felt justly proud of the progress they had made. They felt no department of their size in New York State had done more for community betterment and protection from loss by |
fire, under as great a hardship as they. When necessary to take the engine out of town, any truck that was available would serve the purpose. This often led to a merry and bumpy chase. Early fire commissioners were: Arlington Morgan, George N. Thompson, E.E. Cummings, Robert Smith, and Barnard Fuggle. As many as seventy eight votes were cast in an early fire district |
election. These elections have become largely perfunctory, participated in by a minimal number of people. Annual budgets throughout the period of the 1930's ranged from twelve hundred to eighteen hundred dollars in amount, being held at the lowest possible level. As time went on the commissioners recognized that the average volunteer department suffered from too many members, rather than too few. The local membership |
was held rigidly to twenty four men, Application for membership was maintained on a numerical order, and membership was a prized possession. Elwyn Judd was the first to go through an induction ceremony upon the occurrence of a vacancy. Records of actions and events following 1940 are much harder to locate than for the earlier period. The secretary at that time maintained detailed records |
of the period, but they have not been preserved. During the half century of its existence, the department has suffered only two casualties while fighting a fire. At Ivan Hirt's residence on March 4, 1942, E.E. Cummings suffered a heart attack, and died instantly. Lewis McManus was the second casualty on May 6, 1973, at a mutual aid fire on DeRuyter Lake Road. Injuries |
to personnel have been few in number and mostly of a minor nature. To replace the Buffalo Pumper, # 262 was purchased in 1962. The new pumper was a Chevrolet, five hundred gallon tank, with a seventy five hundred gallon midship pumper, and a high pressure pump. The Buffalo became the second. In 1970 another Chevrolet one thousand gallon tank with a high pressure |
pump was purchased and the Buffalo was retired. The underwriters were satisfied. In 1992 the commissioners purchased a one thousand gallon pumper with a crew cab for six, thus providing an efficient piece of equipment. The present (1992) commissioners are: Richard Babel, Roger Davenport, Henry Brooks, Gary Foster, Donald Burden, Sr., and Louise Clark, Secretary and Treasurer. Officers of the Fire Department, 1992, are: |
Chief Walter Starkweather; First Assistant, Terry Austin; Second Assistant, Thomas 0'Hara; Captain, Ted Parisou; 1st Lieut., Mike Babel; 2nd Lieut., Larry Wallingford; Fire Police Captain, John 0'Hara; County Fire Advisory Board, Ned Holmes. |
Cancer Types - Chondrosarcoma What is chondrosarcoma? Chondrosarcoma is a type of cancer that develops in cartilage cells. Cartilage is the specialized, gristly connective tissue that is present in adults |
and the tissue from which most bones develop. Cartilage plays an important role in the growth process. There are many different types of cartilage that are present throughout the body. |
Chondrosarcoma is a malignant type of bone cancer that primarily affects the cartilage cells of the femur (thighbone), arm, pelvis, and knee. Although less frequent, other areas (such as the |
ribs) may be affected. Chondrosarcoma is the second most common type of primary bone cancer. A primary bone cancer is one that originates from bone, as opposed to starting in |
another organ and then spreading to the bone. This type of cancer rarely affects individuals under age 20 and continues to rise until age 75. The incidence between males and |
females is equal. What causes chondrosarcoma? The exact cause of chondrosarcoma is not known. There may be a genetic or chromosomal component that predisposes certain individuals to this type of |
malignancy. Chondrosarcomas have been observed as a late consequence of radiation therapy for other cancers. A risk factor is anything that may increase a person's chance of developing a disease. |
It may be an activity, such as smoking, diet, family history, or many other things. Different diseases have different risk factors. Although these factors can increase a person's risk, they |
do not necessarily cause the disease. Some people with one or more risk factors never develop a disease, while others develop the disease and have no known risk factors. But, |
knowing your risk factors to any disease can help to guide you into the appropriate actions, including changing behaviors and being clinically monitored for the disease. What are the risk |
factors for chondrosarcoma? Most often, chondrosarcoma occurs from normal cartilage cells, but it may also stem from a preexisting benign (noncancerous) bone or cartilage tumor. The following is a list |
of some benign conditions that may be present when chondrosarcoma occurs: - Enchondromas. A type of benign bone tumor that originates from cartilage and usually affects the hands (can also |
affect other areas). - Osteochondromas. An overgrowth of cartilage and bone near the end of the bone near the growth plate. - Multiple exostoses. The presence of multiple osteochondromas (an |
overgrowth of cartilage and bone near the end of the growth plate). - Ollier's disease. A cluster of enchondromas (benign cartilage tumors that usually affect the hands). - Maffucci's syndrome. |
A combination of multiple enchondroma (benign cartilage tumors that usually affect the hands) tumors and angiomas (benign tumors made up of blood vessels). What are the symptoms of chondrosarcoma? Symptoms |
of chondrosarcoma may vary depending on the location of the tumor. The following are the most common symptoms of chondrosarcoma. However, each individual may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include: |
- Large mass on the affected bone - Feeling of pressure around the mass - Pain that is usually worse at night and may be relieved by taking anti-inflammatory medications |
such as ibuprofen - Pain that is not usually relieved through rest - Local swelling - Pain that may be present for years but increases gradually over time How is |
chondrosarcoma diagnosed? In addition to a complete medical history and physical examination, diagnostic procedures for chondrosarcoma may include the following: - Biopsy. A procedure in which tissue samples are removed |
(with a needle or during surgery) from the body for examination under a microscope; this is done to determine if cancer or other abnormal cells are present. - X-ray. A |
diagnostic test that uses invisible electromagnetic energy beams to produce images of internal tissues, bones, and organs onto film. - Computed tomography scan (also called a CT or CAT scan). |
A diagnostic imaging procedure that uses a combination of X-rays and computer technology to produce horizontal, or axial, images (often called slices) of the body. A CT scan shows detailed |
images of any part of the body, including the bones, muscles, fat, and organs. CT scans are more detailed than general X-rays. - Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). A diagnostic procedure |
that uses a combination of large magnets, radiofrequencies, and a computer to produce detailed images of organs and structures within the body. Treatment for chondrosarcoma Specific treatment for chondrosarcoma will |
be determined by your doctor based on: - Your age, overall health, and medical history - Extent of the disease - Your tolerance for specific medications, procedures, and therapies - |
Expectation for the course of the disease - Your opinion or preference The goal for treatment of chondrosarcoma is to remove the mass and reduce the likelihood that it will |
return. Close follow-up with your doctor may be necessary. Treatment may include: - Surgery. Removal of the tumor. - Physical therapy. This treatment helps to regain strength and use of |
the affected area after surgery. - Radiation therapy. Radiation is given at high doses. - Chemotherapy. Although not the primary treatment, it may be required if the cancer has spread |
Oct. 2, 2008 In pre-clinical studies, vitamin C appears to substantially reduce the effectiveness of anticancer drugs, say researchers at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. These new findings, published in the |
October 1 issue of Cancer Research, a publication of the American Association of Cancer Research (AACR), came from studying laboratory cancer cells and mice, but the study's authors say the |
same mechanism may affect patient outcomes, although they add this premise needs to be tested. "The use of vitamin C supplements could have the potential to reduce the ability of |
patients to respond to therapy," said Heaney, an Associate Attending Physician at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. Use of vitamin C during cancer treatment has been controversial. Some studies have suggested |
that because vitamin C is an antioxidant it might be beneficial to cancer patients. But some classes of chemotherapy drugs produce "oxygen free radicals," unpaired oxygen molecules that can fatally |
react with other molecules in a cell, forcing cell death. In this theory, vitamin C could sop up the radicals, keeping the cancer cell alive despite chemotherapy treatment. Heaney and |
his colleagues tested a wide variety of chemotherapy drugs – those that produce reactive oxygen and those that work in other ways – on cancer cells in the laboratory, that |
were pretreated with dehydroascorbic acid (DHA), the form that ascorbic acid (vitamin C) takes to enter cells. They found to their surprise that every chemotherapy drug they tested – which |
included targeted agents like Gleevec – did not work as well if cells were pretreated with vitamin C, as they did on untreated cancer cells. In the cell culture experiments, |
30 to 70 percent less cancer cells treated with vitamin C were killed depending on the drug tested. They then checked these findings by implanting the cancer cells into mice, |
and again found that, in an animal model system, while chemotherapy kept untreated cancer in check, tumors grew more rapidly in mice that were given cancer pretreated with vitamin C. |
The research team, which includes researchers from Columbia University, then delved into the mechanism by which vitamin C may be protecting these cells, and discovered that it wasn't because the |
nutrient was neutralizing oxygen-free radicals. They found instead that DHA was restoring viability to the cancer cell's damaged mitochondria – the cell's all-important power plant that, when injured, sends signals |
to force a cell to die. "Vitamin C appears to protect the mitochondria from extensive damage, thus saving the cell," Heaney said. "And whether directly or not, all anticancer drugs |
