In the Jan. 1, 2001 "News in Brief," which was bannered on the front page, we identified ICA President Dr. Robert J. Hoffman with the photo of Dr. John A. Hofmann. We apologize to both doctors for the misidentification.

Contrary to appearances, we do know the difference between Robert and John, as we've spoken of them numerous times in DC.

  • Dr. Robert Hoffman (2 f's, 1 n) was elected president of the ICA at the association's 73rd annual convention, May 20-23, 1999 in Atlanta, Georgia, which we reported on in the June 14, 1999 issue of DC.

    •  

  • Dr. John Hofmann (1 f, 2 n's) wrote the "View from the Field" column for DC (1994-1995). He is an active member of the ICA and was the ICA's "Chiropractor of the Year," an honor we reported on in the June 4, 1993 issue of DC.

Court Rules Against No-Fault Insurers - Again
Court Rules Against No-Fault Insurers - Again

New York's highest court of appeals has held that no-fault insurers cannot deny no-fault benefits where they unilaterally determine that a provider has committed misconduct based upon alleged fraudulent conduct. The Court held that this authority belongs solely to state regulators, specifically New York's Board of Regents, which oversees professional licensing and discipline. This follows a similar recent ruling in Florida reported in this publication.

Gaze Stabilization: Clinical Relevance for DCs
Gaze Stabilization: Clinical Relevance for DCs

Keeping our eyes smoothly focused while moving is no simple task because even the simple act of running produces head velocities in excess of 550° per second with head accelerations up to 6,000° per second. Failure to properly stabilize our eyes to compensate for rapid head motion could allow our eyes to over- or undershoot specific targets, which can result in blurred vision, nausea, impaired balance, and a greatly increased risk of falling.
