The Facts and the Testimony i INTRODUCTION. It has been said, “ Where the doctors disagree, the disciples are at liberty.” According to this maxim, the disciples in the medical schools have no reason to complain of any want of liberty in regard to questions of medical science and practice. The differences between the various schools of medicine are so wide, and the points involved are so fundamental, that one may only too sadly complain of a very license of opinion which the above maxim allows. It were, indeed, a most desirable thing to be shut up by immovable barriers of demonstration to narrower limits of speculation and experiment. It were a thing most devoutly to be wished that medical science had attained, in the process of all its painstaking and commendable elaborations, some results so clear and indisputable as to compel all who honestly and candidly seek the truth to accept certain fundamental principles, or, rejecting them, to be self-convicted of folly or knavery. But with the profoundest respect for the medicalprofession, and a disposition to honor and applaud every physician who honestly exercises the duties of his high calling, still one cannot look with admiration upon the science of medicine, either as it is inculcated in the works of eminent Copyright, 1881, by Robert Walter, M.D. 6 THE NUTRITIVE CURE : authors, or as it is illustrated in the prevailing practice. For what is more conflicting than the conclusions of eminent medical writers as to the nature and causes of disease and the remedies proposed for their cure ? And this is true not only of those of different schools, but those of the same school. It is the reproach and derision of medical authorities that they can be quoted on all sides of every great practical issue of their art. They alternately commend and condemn the most widely known and com- monly used remedies, in regard to the same diseases, and under the same circumstances, and there is not a poison or nostrum, or process or com- pound which cannot exhibit the approving signature of some illustrious teacher or practitioner, as a valuable curative of disease, if not of all diseases. It does not require that one shall be very old to remember that former methods and means employed by the doctors in the cure of disease are now wholly discarded and utterly repudiated by those of the same school, as unprofessional if not wholly absurd and barbarous. Instances of this need not be given, as there are many survivors of the former practice ; and this maybe stated as either a compliment to the profession or in praise of the wonderful vitality of the patients of a former day, who bear in their bodies, in the shape of scars and gashes from lancet, cuppings, leeches, etc., the marks and evidences of certain “ heroic” practices once the chief reliance of the doctors. Some can still remember what deserts of burning thirst they travelled through, with “ water, water everywhere, and not a drop to drink,” because the doctor said it would be certain death to let the famishing patient have even a sip of the life-giving beverage. What doctor would jeopard his reputation to-day by readopting the practice very common a score or more years ago ? If these great revolutions of the past and these contradictions of the present are taken together, they constitute a ground of grave suspicion on the part of unprejudiced and non-partisan readers and observers that the whole subject of medicine is enveloped in mystery and uncertainty, and that it is the part of wisdom to have as little to do as possible with the powerful and doubtful remedies of the profession.

  • Fiscal Brief
    New York City Independent Budget Office Fiscal Brief July 2021 A Full Accounting: How Much Does New York City Spend On Its Criminal Justice System? Summary Over the past year, much attention has focused on how much the city spends on policing. But the police department is only one part of a larger system responsible for law enforcement, including adjudication, and, when deemed appropriate, detention and other related functions. IBO has looked at the full cost of what is commonly known as the criminal justice system—from arrest to prosecution to incarceration and its alternatives—and tracked the changes in spending from 2001 through 2020. The report looks at the system as a whole as well as its component parts. Among our findings: • Spending by the agencies involved in the criminal justice system has grown from $5.1 billion in 2001 to $9.2 billion in 2020, an increase of 83 percent over two decades. When adjusted for inflation, though, the growth in spending is a far more modest 1.3 percent. • Funding from the city typically covers about 90 percent of the cost to support the system—$4.6 billion in city-generated funds in 2001 and $8.2 billion in 2020. • The police and correction departments have consistently absorbed most of the funds for the justice system. But over the past two decades, the two departments’ share of system spending has declined from 84 percent in 2001 to 79 percent in 2020. Conversely, despite the decline in the number of arrests over that period, there has been no corresponding decline in the share of criminal justice spending on the offices of the District Attorneys or Special Narcotics Prosecutor.

  • Archons (Commanders) [NOTICE: They Are NOT Anlien Parasites], and Then, in a Mirror Image of the Great Emanations of the Pleroma, Hundreds of Lesser Angels
    A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES WATCH THIS IMPORTANT VIDEO UFOs, Aliens, and the Question of Contact MUST-SEE THE OCCULT REASON FOR PSYCHOPATHY Organic Portals: Aliens and Psychopaths KNOWLEDGE THROUGH GNOSIS Boris Mouravieff - GNOSIS IN THE BEGINNING ...1 The Gnostic core belief was a strong dualism: that the world of matter was deadening and inferior to a remote nonphysical home, to which an interior divine spark in most humans aspired to return after death. This led them to an absorption with the Jewish creation myths in Genesis, which they obsessively reinterpreted to formulate allegorical explanations of how humans ended up trapped in the world of matter. The basic Gnostic story, which varied in details from teacher to teacher, was this: In the beginning there was an unknowable, immaterial, and invisible God, sometimes called the Father of All and sometimes by other names. “He” was neither male nor female, and was composed of an implicitly finite amount of a living nonphysical substance. Surrounding this God was a great empty region called the Pleroma (the fullness). Beyond the Pleroma lay empty space. The God acted to fill the Pleroma through a series of emanations, a squeezing off of small portions of his/its nonphysical energetic divine material. In most accounts there are thirty emanations in fifteen complementary pairs, each getting slightly less of the divine material and therefore being slightly weaker. The emanations are called Aeons (eternities) and are mostly named personifications in Greek of abstract ideas.

  • Atlanta Cure Violence August 26, 2019 Summary the Community
    Request for Proposals: Atlanta Cure Violence August 26, 2019 Summary The Community Safety Committee of Neighborhood Planning Unit-V and its supporters are pleased to present this Request for Proposals (RFP) to implement a community-based violence intervention program in the Neighborhood Planning Unit-V (NPU-V) neighborhoods of Atlanta, based on the Cure Violence (www.cureviolenceglobal.org) model. This will be the first Cure Violence affiliated program in Georgia. This RFP seeks a qualified non-profit organization that embraces a public health approach to gun violence, has strong community ties, and has the capacity to attract and manage diverse funding sources. As this RFP describes, some funding commitments have been obtained, but the non-profit organization will need to assist with additional fundraising in order to prepare to launch the Cure Violence model in early 2020. Context According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, gun violence is the leading cause of death for young black males, ages 15 to 24. It is an epidemic that disproportionately affects low-income communities and communities of color at an alarming rate. The neighborhoods southwest of downtown Atlanta continue to experience a disproportionate burden of violence and its corollary effects on investment, civic participation and community development. Furthermore, many of the residents of these neighborhoods suffer the direct effects of repeated trauma and the indirect effects of unhealed past traumas. Recent months have also seen a disturbing increase in gun violence, including homicides, in the NPU-V neighborhoods (Peoplestown, Summerhill, Mechanicsville, Pittsburgh, Adair Park and Capitol Gateway). The Community Safety Committee of NPU-V and its supporters are initiating this Request for Proposals to implement a community-based violence intervention program in the NPU-V neighborhoods that would coordinate with the local hospital-based violence intervention program (PIVOT) and would be based on the Cure Violence model.

  • Dandyism & Dorian Gray
    NIHILISM, COSME.TICS and AUDAOTY (Dan dyism & Dor i an Gr a y ) ... being a thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in English in the University of Canterbury by Simon Taylor. University of Canterbury -199 0 - Annushka i Tatyana. acknowledging the assistance of Dr. Denis Walker abstract This thesis presents a study of dandyism with reference to Oscar Wilde and Dorian Gray in the form of a comparative analysis. It provides a critique of the social and cultural theories of dandyism of Ellen Moers, Sima Godfrey, Carter Ratcliff, in relation to the dandyfied views of Charles Baudelaire and Barbey D'Aurevilly. It establishes a philosophical tradition of dandyism, bearing on the positions of Jacques Derrida, and on Jean Baudrillard's characterization of postmodernity. Employing the ideas of Walter Benjamin and Andrew Ross, it puts the thesis of the dandy as a point of confluence between fashion and philosophy, ethics and resthetics. matters of style, modes of contents: A Foreword to Nihilism, Cosmetics and Audacity: A Study on the dandyism of Oscar Wilde and his creature. I The Reint and the Parry, An Historical Flourish puts /pa~ to the conventional view of dandyism as epochal.
