Less than 2% of chiropractic physicians attain specialization status. With this achievement, Dr. Williams becomes the only FIANM in Texas west of the I-35 metroplexes, according to the Texas Council of Chiropractic Orthopedists’ membership roster.

To become Board certified, a specialist is required to demonstrate advanced proficiency in the evaluation and non-operative management of a broad range of injuries, conditions, and disorders of the neuromusculoskeletal system with particular emphasis on the spine and extremities.

The course consists of 300 hours of specialty training including concepts of chronic pain, orthopedics, rehabilitation, and the most current research on treatment and recovery.

In addition to achieving Fellowship designation, Dr. Williams has been leading the charge for professional standardization, specialization, and integration & collaboration with medical colleagues for several years. Not only has Dr. Williams led the charge as the Chairman of the Public Relations Committee for the Texas Chiropractic Association but also as host of his own podcast called The Chiropractic Forward Podcast. Dr. Williams’s podcast focuses on research findings, the patient-centered practice model, and evidence-informed practice protocols.

NeoTract Designates Dr. Andrew Chang as UroLift® Center of Excellence


News Image

“We are pleased to recognize Dr. Andrew Chang as a UroLift Center of Excellence for his commitment to providing consistent care to BPH patients using the UroLift System treatment,” said Dave Amerson

NeoTract, a wholly owned subsidiary of Teleflex Incorporated (NYSE:TFX) focused on addressing unmet needs in the field of urology, today announced that Andrew Chang, MD, Chesapeake Urology in Brandywine, MD, has been designated as a UroLift® Center of Excellence. The designation recognizes that Dr. Chang has achieved a high level of training and experience with the UroLift® System and demonstrated a commitment to exemplary care for men suffering from symptoms associated with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), also known as enlarged prostate.

Recommended for the treatment of BPH in both the American Urological Association and European Association of Urology clinical guidelines, the FDA-cleared Prostatic Urethral Lift procedure using the UroLift System is a proven, minimally invasive technology for treating lower urinary tract symptoms due to BPH. The UroLift permanent implants, delivered during a transurethral outpatient procedure, relieve prostate obstruction and open the urethra directly without cutting, heating, or removing prostate tissue.

The UroLift Center of Excellence program is designed to highlight urologists who are committed to educating their patients on BPH and the UroLift System as a treatment option and consistently seek to deliver excellent patient outcomes and experiences.

“We are pleased to recognize Dr. Andrew Chang as a UroLift Center of Excellence for his commitment to providing consistent care to BPH patients using the UroLift System treatment,” said Dave Amerson, president of the Teleflex Interventional Urology business unit. “This achievement has helped many patients experience durable, long-term relief from the burdensome symptoms of BPH while preserving sexual function*1,2.”

Over 40 million men in the United States are affected by BPH, a condition that occurs when the prostate gland that surrounds the male urethra becomes enlarged with advancing age and begins to obstruct the urinary system. Symptoms of BPH often include interrupted sleep and urinary problems and can cause loss of productivity, depression and decreased quality of life.

Medication is often the first-line therapy for enlarged prostate, but relief can be inadequate and temporary. Side effects of medication treatment can include sexual dysfunction, dizziness and headaches, prompting many patients to quit using the drugs. For these patients, the classic alternative is surgery that cuts, heats or removes prostate tissue to open the blocked urethra. While current surgical options can be very effective in relieving symptoms, they can also leave patients with permanent side effects such as urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction, and retrograde ejaculation.

About the UroLift® System

The FDA-cleared UroLift System is a proven, minimally invasive technology for treating lower urinary tract symptoms due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The UroLift permanent implants, delivered during a minimally invasive transurethral outpatient procedure, relieve prostate obstruction and open the urethra directly without cutting, heating, or removing prostate tissue. Clinical data from a pivotal 206-patient randomized controlled study showed that patients with enlarged prostate receiving UroLift implants reported rapid and durable symptomatic and urinary flow rate improvement without compromising sexual function*1,2. Patients also experienced a significant improvement in quality of life. Over 100,000 men have been treated with the UroLift System in the U.S. Most common adverse events reported include hematuria, dysuria, micturition urgency, pelvic pain, and urge incontinence. Most symptoms were mild to moderate in severity and resolved within two to four weeks after the procedure. The Prostatic Urethral Lift procedure using the UroLift System is recommended for the treatment of BPH in both the American Urological Association and European Association of Urology clinical guidelines. The UroLift System is available in the U.S., Europe, Australia, Canada, Mexico and South Korea. Learn more at http://www.UroLift.com.

Car Insurance Can Be More Affordable For Teen Drivers If They The Following Tips


News Image

“Teen drivers can lower their car insurance premium if they study hard at school and compare online insurance quotes”, said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.

Compare-autoinsurance.org has launched a new blog post that presents several methods that can help teen drivers pay less on their car insurance rates.

For more info and free online car insurance quotes, please visit https://compare-autoinsurance.org/5-ways-to-get-cheaper-car-insurance-for-teens/

Getting affordable car insurance for a teen driver can be tricky. The insurance companies consider teens as high-risk drivers and charge them accordingly. However, there are some things that can be done to lower the price of a teenager’s car insurance.

Teen drivers that want cheaper car insurance should follow the next tips:

  • Check the good student discount. Studies show that students with good grades are more responsible in traffic and less likely to be involved in a car accident. For these reasons, insurance companies reward good students with discounts that can be as high as 15%. To be eligible for this discount, students need at least a 3.0 GPA.
  • Enroll in a defensive driving course. Teen drivers will have to chance to learn the state’s traffic laws and to enhance their driving skills while being supervised by a professional driver. Not only that, but the insurance companies will offer significant discounts to those teen drivers that graduate a defensive driving course.
  • Insure a cheap and safe car. Muscle cars or sports cars should be avoided to be insured by teen drivers. To lower the costs of insurance, teen drivers should consider insuring an SUV or a family car that was slightly used but has several safety features already installed.
  • Consider signing a driving contract. Teenagers can sign a driving contract where they agree to take some responsibilities in order to pay less on their car insurance. Teenagers can agree to always wear a seatbelt, obey all traffic lights and signs, stay in the speed limit and drive safely, drive with both hands on the wheel, and they promise to contribute to the car maintenance, gas, and insurance.
  • Compare online car insurance quotes. This is the best way to save money on car insurance for teen drivers. It is recommended to obtain at least three quotes from different car insurance providers in order to compare and find a better deal.

Next News Network Gets Sneak Peak At New Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and The Squad YouTube Parody From Creator Chris Kohls With Sight On Netflix


AOC & The Squad Title Card

AOC & The Squad Title Card

If this show is popular on YouTube, if we’re getting a million hits an episode, we think we could hook one of the major entertainment platforms like Netflix. Frankly, they would be crazy not to pick this up. That’s the ultimate goal.

“Mr. Regan”, the conservative YouTube personality, spoke with Next News Network host Gary Franchi on his latest production, a hilarious new cartoon about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the ridiculous things her friends in “the squad” do in DC to undermine our Republic. Chris Kohls, who goes by the pseudonym “Mr. Reagan” on his channel pointed out to Franchi that more often than not, the left inserts their political views into a wide range of entertainment from movies to shows, yet conservatives don’t have much representation.

Kohls elaborated off camera, “The left has a monopoly on entertainment. We wanted to do something without all the SJW preaching. It’s important to get conservative ideas out there in a comedy show and there are so few shows that come from a conservative perspective, that we think we will dominate the space. And it’s not strictly an anti-leftist show. We’re willing to ridicule anyone.”

On the show’s popularity and Netflix goals, Kohls made it clear, “If this show is popular on YouTube, if we’re getting a million hits an episode, we think we could hook one of the major entertainment platforms like Netflix. Frankly, they would be crazy not to pick this up. That’s the ultimate goal.”

The two also discussed classic franchises like Star Wars, Terminator, and Ghostbusters that have seen the left inject social justice warrior issues and identity politics into their storyline, ruining these established brands. Kohls said “There’s just so much politics in entertainment right now, and I think we should just be able to step back and enjoy a good story without infusing politics.” Kohls is determined to change that while taking on The Squad with a healthy dose of comedy.

Wikipedia notes “The Squad” “is a group of four congresswomen elected in the 2018 United States House of Representatives elections, made up of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts and Rashida Tlaib of Michigan.”

The cartoon’s teaser features AOC’s squad discovering that Ilhan Omar is actually bald under her hijab and Kohls also revealed Next News Network host Gary Franchi will make a cartoon cameo.

Kohls remarked that many late night comedians, use ridicule of President Trump and conservatives that ends up pulling moderates over to the left. Kohls is doing his part to bring moderates over to the right by lampooning AOC & The Squad.

He also revealed the cartoon’s main animated superhero who saves the day in just about every episode, is the “Great Orange Patriot” and bears a striking resemblance to President Trump.

Kohls goal for the cartoon is to release a full season of about 10 episodes, and Mr. Reagan is asking viewers to participate in the production by chipping in if they want to help. He set a fundraising goal of $20,000 to pay for production expenses.

SAF and TRX Systems Partner to Streamline In-Building Public Safety Signal Mapping


NEON® Signal Mapper Integration with SAF Spectrum Compact

SAF Tehnika (RSE: SAF1R) and TRX Systems announced today the integration of TRX’s NEON® Signal Mapper application with SAF’s hand-held spectrum analyzer series (Spectrum Compact). The new SAF-TRX integrated solution uses NEON Signal Mapper to deliver real-time geo-referenced signal data that can be visualized both locally by the user and remotely on a 3D display.

This new in-building signal testing solution leverages the Spectrum Compact’s exceptional measurement accuracy and industry-leading noise floor (-128dB) to provide a complete picture of the RF environment. First responders heading anywhere in a building will have the confidence of not losing communications during an emergency response in radio signal verified buildings. A short video of the SAF-TRX Signal Mapper solution can be viewed here.

SAF’s smartphone-sized Spectrum Compact is now integrated with the TRX’s body-worn NEON® Tracking Unit to provide an economical, simple, and accurate signal mapping and verification solution called SAF Signal Mapper. RF engineers and technicians can comfortably and discreetly map the signal coverage throughout an entire building including stairwells, elevators, and difficult to access areas. With the powerful, user-friendly NEON® Command software, users can create the coverage map for buildings even when no drawings or cad files exist!

For public safety agencies with resource and budget constraints, the SAF-TRX Signal Mapper solution is the go-to solution. Public Safety agencies or certification service companies new to real-world RF testing now have the tools to quickly get up to speed verifying in-building signal coverage.

Janis Bergs, President of SAF North America, said, “Reliable signal coverage for first responders is a matter of life and death. SAF is excited to partner with TRX Systems to provide a solution to verify in-building public safety signal strength. Spectrum Compact paired with the innovative TRX Neon Signal Mapper is the smallest, most reliable, and cost-effective toolset available to public safety organizations. Our solution verifies police, fire, and EMS personnel have the signal coverage they need when it matters most.”

NEON Signal Mapper is a 3D in-building coverage mapping solution that delivers 3D mapping, tracking, and visualization where GPS is unreliable. Signal Mapper leverages TRX’s patented NEON® Location Service which uses inertial sensor fusion, user corrections, and map constraints to enable real-time 3D location and tracking within buildings, stadiums, subways, dense urban areas, and any region where GPS is unavailable.

The authority having jurisdiction has the responsibility to determine which buildings fall under NFPA Annex O and must use in-house expertise or find an outside expert. Companies such as SAF offer RF testing tools to analyze, design, and optimize wireless networks.

About SAF Tehnika

SAF Tehnika has 20 years of experience designing and manufacturing microwave point-to-point radios and field-optimized portable spectrum analyzers covering 300 MHz up to 87 GHz. Proven worldwide recognition with deployments in more than 130 countries, SAF offers high quality and high reliability products. SAF Tehnika is publicly-traded at NASDAQ Riga, Latvia with our warehouse and support in Denver, Colorado.

About TRX Systems

TRX Systems is the developer of NEON® GPS-denied location solutions, delivering location and mapping where GPS is not available or is unreliable including indoors, underground, in dense urban areas, and where GPS is jammed or erroneous. NEON® delivers ubiquitous, low-cost, GPS-denied location through the use of advanced sensor fusion, ranging, and patented dynamic mapping algorithms. NEON® location technology provides the foundation for a number of commercial applications, including NEON® Personnel Tracker and NEON Signal Mapper. TRX’s indoor location software development has been supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF), the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the U.S. Army, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

2020 Global Wellness Summit, Headed to “Start-Up Nation” Israel, Will Have Unprecedented Focus on Health & Wellness Technology


The Global Wellness Summit (GWS), the foremost gathering of international leaders in the $4.5 trillion global wellness economy, is headed to Tel Aviv, Israel, from November 10–13, 2020.

The GWS will not only put Israel’s creative health and wellness solutions on the world stage, it will introduce Israel’s powerful investment landscape to global wellness companies.

The Global Wellness Summit (GWS), the foremost gathering of international leaders in the $4.5 trillion global wellness economy, is headed to Tel Aviv, Israel, from November 10–13, 2020. Israel is known as the world’s Start-up Nation for boasting 6,000+ active start-ups (second only to Silicon Valley) that are busy reinventing everything from AI to alternative energy, and because no place on earth has such a dizzying mix of technologies and innovators in one space.

The GWS selected Tel Aviv for 2020 because it’s becoming ground zero for health and wellness technologies and investment—from digital healthcare innovations to engineering the future of healthy, sustainable food to new technologies for the fitness, beauty, travel, mental wellness and workplace wellness markets.

The Global Wellness Summit announced today that its 2020 conference will have the most powerful focus on health and wellness tech innovation (not only from within Israel, but globally) in its 14-year history, and that it will feature a Tech Innovation Pavilion for the first time, so attendees can get up close and personal with the most cutting-edge wellness start-ups.

“It’s never been more important for both big multinationals and leading wellness companies to study the most innovative start-ups if they want to stay ahead of the game in the fast-growing wellness space. And Israel, with so many brilliant new companies, is definitely one of the key places to look at,” said Amir Alroy, co-founder of Welltech1, a new Tel Aviv-based wellness innovation hub and microfund. “The GWS will not only put Israel’s creative health and wellness solutions on the world stage, it will introduce Israel’s powerful investment landscape to global wellness companies.”

Why Is Israel the Perfect Turf for Wellness Innovation?

While a small country of only eight million people, Israel is the world’s Start-up Nation for many reasons:


  • 600 new start-ups are established every year.
  • 500 multinational corporations (including Apple, Amazon, Google, Microsoft, etc.) have set up incubators or venture capital arms there.
  • The country ranks #1 in the world for R&D and VC investment as a percentage of GDP and raises venture capital per capita at two-and-a-half times the rate of the US and 30 times that of Europe—with a record $6.5 billion in high-tech start-up funding in 2018.*
  • Because so many unicorns (companies with $1 billion+ valuations) are Israeli founded: from Salesforce and SodaStream to GPS navigation system Waze, to real estate tech start-up Compass, to online home design platform Houzz, to home insurance disrupter Lemonade.

A storm of forces has come together to create this thriving start-up and health/wellness tech ecosystem.

There is the experience that entrepreneurs acquire during their mandatory army service, the emphasis on learning and world-class academic institutions, widespread immigration, and the Israeli entrepreneurial spirit.

In addition to a powerful private funding landscape, the government’s Innovation Authority makes Israel one of the only countries that funds start-ups without taking equity: giving grants to entrepreneurs (from Israel and elsewhere) to develop innovative technology without taking on debt. Israel distributed an estimated $500 million to start-ups in 2018 and recently established Digital Health as a crucial growth engine with its own budget.

Israeli Health & Wellness Start-Ups – A Few Success Stories

There are hundreds of health/wellness start-ups across Israel, and they have an outsized presence on annual global rankings for “best inventions.” The diversity of issues that they’re working to solve for is staggering, whether OrCam, which uses artificial vision to tell blind people what they’re looking at, to Upright Technologies’ wearable device that corrects people’s posture, to WaterGen’s Genny appliance that pulls moisture from the air to create drinkable water, to Missbeez, an on-demand massage and beauty platform.

Reinventing Medicine

Israeli start-ups are radically reinventing healthcare, from AI-based diagnostics to fertility-tech. Zebra Medical Vision uses AI to provide lifesaving, affordable medical scans that detect anomalies; Healthy.io converts smartphone cameras into clinical-grade medical devices; while Beyond Verbal analyzes a user’s voice to gather insights on their health and emotional state. Israel is a Femtech phenom, from Vayyar’s 4D technology that detects early-stage breast cancer to Nuvo, a pioneer in maternal-fetal connected health.

Reinventing Food

Israel is home to 750 companies in food tech,* and the Innovation Authority recently opened FoodNxt, a lab to help Israel lead the world in inventing better nutrition. Israel (where animal welfare is paramount) is a pioneer in meat substitutes: Aleph Farms engineers of cultured beef, developed the first slaughter-free steak, and were first to grow meat in space; other standouts include Future Meat Technologies, ZeroEgg and SuperMeann. Israeli start-ups such as DayTwo are cracking the microbiome, while companies such as Nutrino are out in front in virtual personalized nutrition platforms.

Reinventing Fitness

Numerous Israeli companies are fit-tech leaders reinventing the workout: Fitness22, a very successful online community/app, helps people get into the best shape of their lives; Moonrun, an at-home running device (using suspension and gravity), offers a low-impact solution to boring treadmills; Hyfit’s portable workout system with embedded sensors sends live motivational messages and feedback.
