Hospitals & Asylums
February 2012
By Anthony J.
Sanders
To
help process the March Madness of National Social Work Month it might help to
believe that the economic enemy is at war with freedom and the Rivergate Church and Synagogue suggests that we must break
the agreements we made under the duress of a warfare worldview. To give us a sense of duty to end the war in
heaven the NPR reports there is a federal lawsuit calling for “corporate responsibility
for torture” filed by a Palestinian man whose father was taken in for
questioning by the intelligence service and brought back by the hospital dead
with cigarette burns all over his body, the surviving son immigrated to the USA
and is now a Texas police officer. Victim
compensation is the path to freedom and I not only survived the colorectal and
lymphatic cancer warsh without a shirt on my back but
walked away from my family reunion with 24USC(10)§420 a federally
insured volunteer under 24USC(10)§422(d)
about $180 ahead of $35 running tights and $40 in socks, and apologize for negligently
turning a blind eye to and running away from the Occupy size box of pretzels
and fat girl with the immitation polyomavirus.
I thank the divine providence of the community free box for my dry but slightly
tight running shoes and the beautiful weather we have been having on this day
which was predicted to be the coldest night of the year 14°F, cold enough for
to open the doors of the cold weather shelter, which was expected to happen by
a volunteer at the community dinner last night.
The night before last the City very kindly opened Pioneer Hall as an
emergency shelter and we got to get out of the freezing rain enough to enjoy
the snow. I had gotten free
pneumococcal, flu and DPT vaccinations, my arms were sore, my bag wet, had
insomnia, woke up early to a low lying cloud of nasal virus and was exhausted
the next day but maybe I can afford to rent a rheum
now that I am camping and no longer want such unhealthy living conditions. I would be willing to volunteer maybe three
nights a week at such shelter. Now we have two potential locations for a
$1 per capita federal grant financed 7 night a week Ashland homeless shelters
(1) Pioneer Hall across Lithia Creek from the old Chautauqua campground and (2)
the Daily Tidings Building across the street from the First Presbyterian Church
where the Sunday and cold weather shelter and once monthly winter meal are
provided. I regret Chautauqua Homeless Campaign v. Mt. Ashland Defenders: Ashland Watershed Evaluation will
probably not be done until the next Citizens Homeless Coalition meeting. Because of high levels of interest in mental
health this national social month I have appended to this newsletter the
abstract of March’s study titled, State Mental Institution Library Education (SMILE). Over-the-counter 5HTP and SAMe are reportedly nearly as effective against
depression as nuts for polite campers in inclement weather and I am looking for
depressed consumers to try them and report their opinion this March.
Occupy D.C. Founders Speak at Southern
Oregon University HA-2-16-12
Two events were hosted in the month of February at Southern Oregon
University. The first, at Feb.
15, 5:00pm -- Solidarity Potluck; 6:30pm -- Trade Justice
Roadshow: Corporate Globalization & the Trans-Pacific FTA. The second, on Feb. 16, 6:30pm -- Dr. Margaret
Flowers and Kevin Zeese: The Occupy Movement and
Universal Healthcare. The Trans-Pacific Free Trade
negotiations are "being held in secret" and the working documents
need to be released on the Internet.
Those attending unanimously declared the United States of America v. Kim Dotcom, Megaupload
Limited et al. United States District Court for the Eastern District of
Virginia Alexandria Division Criminal seizure of January 19, 2012 and adopted
the armed robbery case as poster-child to the TPFTA. Deb Van Poolen
went to Washington D.C. on hunger strike for Bradley Manning and returned with
Occupy D.C. co-founders lawyer Kevin Zeese and
physician Margaret Flowers, who are travelling the West Coast Occupy movements
from San Francisco, to speak at Southern Oregon University. The Occupy D.C. founders agreed to look into converting D.C.
prisons to homeless shelters. Ms. Flowers defends her failed experiment in
federal lobbying for universal health insurance, “20 years ago 70% of American
physicians were members of the American Medical Association (AMA) today only
15% are”. Kevin Zeese
tells us, “This is an interesting time in our history. The empire is
hollowing out our economy. Rome had 37 bases, the U.S. over 600. 400
people have 80% of the wealth. They didn't get there by being any smarter
or working harder than everyone else but because the system is corrupt.
Corruption is so extreme Obama holds luncheons costing $37,000, more than the
median American income. We've had
everything stolen from us. 2/3 of us do not have $1,000 for
emergency expenses. For 10 years polls
have shown 2/3 of Americans want single payer.
We want to move to a democratized economy away from oligarchy. Occupy is the beginning of a political
movement however it must abolish and not lobby the establishment”. The anonymous Democratic candidate/mole
rumored to be attending didn’t speak and both? Democratic and Republican (DR)
parties in the 2nd Congressional District of Oregon are charged 25%
of their 2012 campaign contributions for the winter jacket by all the
independent political organizations.
Authorization
Request for Dental Services HA-14-2-12
I need to get two teeth treated if I am to
kiss a girl at midnight on New Year’s Eve 2012-2013. I have therefore prepared a claim alleging
discrimination on the basis of disability to enable a dentist to secure payment
for the extraction of an upper wisdom tooth and root canal and composite restoration
of the first maxillary molar. Humans
have twenty baby (primary) teeth and thirty-two adult (permanent) teeth. In total, more than 95 percent of adults in
the United States are afflicted with dental caries. At the age of 12, 58 percent of children in
the United States have some caries in their permanent teeth. By age 17, the figure jumps to over 84
percent. By the time children reach the
age of 17 only 16 percent are free of dental caries. Over 60 percent of those over age 65 have
root caries, three times the rate of younger adults. Almost all seniors (95 percent) have at least
one area where the gum has lost its attachment to the tooth. Nearly 70 percent have more severe
periodontal pockets (over 4 millimeters).
Twenty-five percent of Americans are without any natural teeth when they
die. The ingestion of sugar is the culprit in the development of caries. Prehistoric man had very little caries, only
2 to 4 percent of the teeth examined.
Through the Roman, Anglo-Saxon and Medieval periods, the incidence of
caries hovered at about 10 percent. The
rate remained constant until the end of the seventeenth century when, with the
development and distribution of sugar cane, it began its steady rise. By 1850
sugar was eaten by most of the population, and the incidence of caries mushroomed. Both the consumption of sugar and the rate of
caries continued to rise until the 1950s and 60s. At this time, fluoride was added to municipal
and school water supplies and toothpastes and the rate of caries began to
decline. The conventional wisdom is to brush and floss
twice a day and see your dentist twice a year. There
are only two basic concepts to remember to be a successful dentist, “The front
teeth have to look good and the back teeth have to be pain free. If these two rules are followed, the patients
will be happy and the dentist will make a good living”.
Homeless
Campaign HA-9-2-12
To wrap up the message of the Citizen’s
Homeless Coalition and Ashland City Council Homeless Steering Committee, it is
proposed to change the name of the organization to the Homeless Campaign, at
least for the purposes of this newsletter of minutes from the every-other
Thursday meetings at Peace Church. The
name Homeless Campaign reminds every community of the need for (1) a homeless
shelter and (2) free camping. Ashland, with a population of 20,000 is seeking $20,000 annually, $1
per capita, in federal grants and tax-credits for 75% of the costs of acquiring new homeless shelters under the
McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act. It is hoped to legally incorporate as a taxpaying 527 political
organization once we have negotiated 501(c)(3)
property tax forgiveness for the homeless shelter and park maintenance for the
restrooms at the campground at Lithia Park, where the free camping was
prohibited in the 1960s.
Book 4 State Mental Institution Library Education (SMILE)
To
amend Chapter 4 St. Elizabeth’s Hospitals §161-230
incorporating Chapter 9 §321-329 Hospitalization of Mentally Ill
Nationals Returned from Foreign Countries at §189-194 therein. Review in March. National Social Work month,
this work changes the name of the Substance Abuse Mental Health Services
Administration (SAMHSA) to the Social Work Administration (SWA) to administrate
professionally competent review tribunals of hospitalizations for mental
illness and substance abuse by licensed social workers. District of Columbia Mental Health System
statute reduced the inpatient psychiatric population of St. Elizabeth’s
hospital from 7,000 to 600 and in 2009 the buildings were bought by the
Department of Homeland Security and in 2011 the statute amended to recognize
“Customs” as the inheritors of Title 6 of the USC and CFR. Globally mental
illness and psychological disorders stemming from substance are estimated to
affect a combined total of 450 million people, 7.3% of the population. 55% of Americans have suffered mental illness
at some time in their life and 1 in 5 Americans experience a diagnosable mental
disorder in any given year, about 5% suffer a serious mental illness. In 1997 30,535 people died from suicide in
the U.S. and it was the 11th leading cause of death in 2000. The de-institutionalization movement has been
successful in reducing the psychiatric inpatient population by half from
515,572 in 1970 to 198,195 in 1998.
During 1999 there were 1.7 million admissions to inpatient psychiatric
treatment, 424,450 of those were involuntary commitments. Mental illness is the
second leading cause of disability, costing disability insurance an estimated
$24 billion and medical $65 billion annually, with mental health organization
accounting for around $38 billion in expenditures. Under deinstitutionalization the diagnosis of
mental illness and psychiatric drug consumption have increased alarmingly
particularly amongst juveniles.
Anti-psychotic and hypnotic drugs are the leading cause of prescription
drug overdose. Civil commitments and judge
enforced medication are abolished. The
licenses of all state mental institutions, private psychiatric hospitals and
general hospital psychiatric wards are terminated. Funds shall be reinvested in social worker
supervised group homes and forensic hospitals.
The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) V must recognize the diagnosis
sado-masochism (dsm) to reverse the rise of this abusive class to its
highest levels of incompetence. MIRROR
