The proposed merger of the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners and Federation of Chiropractic Licensing Boards was approved by NBCE delegates and FCLB members at their respective annual meetings, held jointly in Atlanta, Ga., this year. Per the new bylaws, the new entity takes the NBCE name, with FCLB continuing as a department within NBCE. The federation will continue to enjoy Board of Directors representation on what will be a single, expanded board.
| Digital ExclusiveChiroWeb Adds Audio
As the web progresses, the desire to hear and see, rather than just read, is at the forefront. ChiroWeb is now proud to offer interviews with well-known nutritional experts in the Windows Media Player format, allowing you to listen to well-known nutritional experts while you work.
The interviews are conducted by James Meschino, DC,MS, an authority on nutrition. Dr. Meschino writes two columns in DC: "Natural Therapies and Anti-Aging Research" and "Nutrional Research News." The first three interviews are titled:
- "Combining Traditional, Complementary and Natural Interventions"
- "The Benefits of Melatonin"
- "Using Natural Remedies to Manage Women's Health Issues"
Each interview is packed with important information available to you and your patients.
The audio programs are less than 14 minutes in length, making them small enough to be downloaded without too much delay. To listen to Dr. Meschino and his guests, you'll need Windows Media Player. If Windows is running your computer, you'll have the program, but if not, Windows Media Player is free and easy to download. (Note: AOL users will want to sign on and then open Internet Explorer to get the best quality sound.)
We feel that bringing this kind of information to DCs and their patients via audio over the internet is an important step for ChiroWeb.
Please take the time to listen to Dr. Meschino's programs the next time you visit ChiroWeb.com. You will find the audio interviews at: http://www.chiroweb.com/audio/meschino. There is a link on the directory page for your use to let us know your thoughts on the programs. This is another tool that we can use to inform our patients and interact as a profession.
