I was watching the Pro Bowl today and a comment by one of the announcers reminded me to search Planet Chiropractic for a football related article I wrote a few years ago. In the process of searching news archives, I came across numerous Super Bowl related articles I’ve posted during the past six years or so, and I’ve organized the list of almost everything I found into a single post. The information may or may not be helpful to you, but at least I’ll have a reference for Super Bowl XLVIII.

If you search Planet Chiropractic archives, every year in December, you’ll find I’ve written about the importance of attending chiropractic seminars in the month of January. While I find December is the best goalsetting month, January is a month of taking action. And to me, taking action doesn’t mean just chopping wood and carrying water in the office, it’s time to be with others and get the juices flowing.

The Board of Trustees of Parker University and Parker Seminars is pleased to announce the appointment of their new president, Brian J. McAulay, DC, PhD. This appointment comes after an intensive three month search conducted by a board-appointed presidential search committee of nine members, headed by Wright L. Lassiter, Jr., PhD, chair of the Board of Trustees.

January 2013 is time for chiropractic education and motivation in Las Vegas, Nevada. I’ve often said before that January is the perfect time to begin a year and chiropractic with a conference extravaganza. The Rio Hotel in Las Vegas at Parker Seminars is the perfect place to start. As always, this year features stellar speakers and educators, and one of the largest expo halls available to the chiropractic profession. See you in Las Vegas!

A study focusing on the cultural competency of chiropractic students was published in the Fall 2012 issue of The Journal of Chiropractic Education, a peer reviewed journal that is indexed in PubMed. The article titled “A Retrospective Analysis of the Cultural Competence of Chiropractic Students in a Public Health Course,” was written by Life West faculty members, Kim Khauv, D.C., M.P.H and Joel Alcantara, D.C.
