"Check health food stores and drug stores. Some networking companies also sell them. The discussion and comments provided here are brief and a summary at best. Readers are urged to obtain a copy of Dr. M. T. Morter's booklet pH, Your Potential for Health, or other books on pH testing for more detail. It should be stressed that a person should not try to draw firm conclusions based on one day's readings. An average of pH numbers over several days is a more reliable indicator. Generally speaking, the more the initial urine pH reading, after awakening, is below 6." - Ron Garner, Conscious Health: A Complete Guide to Wellness Through Natural Means (Get the book.)

"Today, whatever its impact probably depends more on word of mouth and physician networking than any systemic application (Gabbay and le May 2004), including practice guidelines (Free-mantle 2004). No one likes to have their preconceived notions and comfortable practices challenged, not even physicians. I, for one, am uncomfortable delegating all responsibility for "keeping up with" the literature. I have subscribed to some twenty journals for much of my career, reading them all and many others." - Nortin M. Hadler MD, Worried Sick: A Prescription for Health in an Overtreated America (Get the book.)

"Yolanda took a disciplined approach to networking with friends, sifting through online research about fibromyalgia, and reading voluminously. Knowing that she had a non-life-threatening diagnosis and had not responded to the treatments prescribed by her doctors, she relentlessly investigated numerous options. After a series of wrong turns and dead-ends she finally found relief working with a naturopath and an acupuncturist. In retrospect, the pivotal moment came when she took control." - Rick Foster, Greg Hicks, M.D., Jen Seda, Choosing Brilliant Health: 9 Choices That Redefine What It Takes to Create Lifelong Vitality and Well-Being (Get the book.)

"The PMC is part idea mart, part technology confab, part networking conference. Think of it as the world's fair of pharmaceutical marketing, the place where the quest for a better pharma-consumer connection goes high-tech and high-touch. The stars of the PMC universe are not traditional ones, although at breakfast or lunch one might see a celebrity give a keynote speech — former Wonder Woman Lynda Carter on the dangers of irritable bowel syndrome, or Happy Days's Tom Bosley on mental health issues. Rather, they are people like Pat Kelly, the president of U.S." - Greg Critser, Generation Rx: How Prescription Drugs are Altering American Lives, Minds, and Bodies (Get the book.)

"Pooling ideas, working together and networking are the best ways to promote change. • Read up on the issue - the books recommended below by Juliet Schor and Susan Linn provide suggestions for bringing this issue to public attention. • Let your child's school know of your views and wishes. • Make your feelings known to all the politicians who represent you. When they're looking for re-election, ask what they're doing about aggressive marketing to children. In the meantime, you could write and ask them to lend their support to moves such as banning advertising to the under-twelves." - Sue Palmer, Toxic Childhood: How the Modern World is Damaging Our Children and What We Can Do About it (Get the book.)

"The Internet and e-mail have allowed communication and networking on this subject to reach a remarkable level. The time for this information to reach a worldwide audience has come. Through my seminars, retreats, books, websites, exotic raw foods, video recordings and audio recordings I am helping, along with all other raw-foodists, to chart uncharted territory. I believe I am helping to do for nutrition what Roger Bannister did for running when he broke the four-minute mile barrier. Bannister overcame all the doubters and pessimists. What was once considered impossible became possible." - David Wolfe, The Sunfood Diet Success System (Get the book.)

"In his 2004 paper "Movement as Network," Gideon Rosenblatt of ONE/North-west suggests that the environmental movement be reorganized so as to shift "the focus away from individual people and organizations working on environmental issues and toward the connections that link them together." By networking many organizations, movements can leverage synergies and network effects. Redundancies can be eliminated, and each organization in the network can focus on what it does best. " - Alex Steffen, Worldchanging: A User's Guide for the 21st Century (Get the book.) "Telepresence and Bio Art: networking Humans, Rabbits, and Robots by Eduardo Kac (The University of Michigan Press, 2005) Recognized worldwide for his interactive Internet installations, bio-art pioneer Eduardo Kac documents in this landmark book the evolution of his field —art that bridges the divide between biology, technology, and innovation. Using examples from his own cadre of world-changing "events," Kac argues, "telepresence works have the power to contribute to a relativistic view of contemporary experience and at the same time create a new domain of action, perception, and interaction." - Alex Steffen, Worldchanging: A User's Guide for the 21st Century (Get the book.) "With this in mind, several innovators have designed systems for compact medical support, renewable power, water purification, and networking telecommunication. One of the biggest stumbling blocks for aid workers is finding a consistent, reliable source of power in places where power lines and stations have been destroyed —or places where there was no energy infrastructure to begin with. SkyBuilt Power's Mobile Power Station (MPS) solves this problem beautifully." - Alex Steffen, Worldchanging: A User's Guide for the 21st Century (Get the book.)

"Typically these hellos are unintentional ways of breaking the ice, but with just a bit of practice on your part, the habit of remaining open to and initiating the unconscious hello can become a fantastic, very versatile networking tool that works in any setting. To me, the unconscious hello could be simply the nod of a head, a smile, eye contact, turning your body toward someone, or even opening your arms or legs in the direction of someone who sees you." - Tonya Reiman, The Power of Body Language: How to Succeed in Every Business and Social Encounter (Get the book.)

"Think about the girls you know across the country — friends, relatives, friends of friends, and start networking," Judi Shils is saying, slouched back in her lawn chair. Around her neck, the silver "Search for the Cure" dog tags, etched with names of friends who have died of cancer, glint in the sunlight. Today's agenda for the Teen Safe Cosmetics Campaign is ambitious: mini summits planned for San Francisco, Los Angeles and New York; a nationwide teen summit next February; a battle-of-the-bands benefit concert next month." - Stacy Malkan, Not Just a Pretty Face: The Ugly Side of the Beauty Industry (Get the book.)

"The difference lies in the sequence of the adjustments and the 'networking' of the various methods." Just as there are several types of adjustments, there are also several types of chiropractic physicians. Though they are usually split into two groups— those who combine chiropractic with other modalities (mixers) and those who deal only with locating and removing subluxations (straight chiropractors)—in reality, chiropractors exist along a spectrum between these two extremes." - Herbert Ross, DC with Keri Brenner, L.Ac., Alternative Medicine Magazine's Definitive Guide to Sleep Disorders: 7 Smart Ways to Help You Get a Good Night's Rest (Get the book.)

"Because it's the software — all the research, networking, marketing — that's important in that pill. The pill is a piece of software! I mean, when my mother would ask, 'Why is that pill so expensive?' I would say, 'But, Ma, it's not the pill that costs so much, it's the software!'" And if it was information — not pills — that lay at the core of SmithKline, why, he would also have to recast his own role. As he told a group of fellow CEOs at a Harvard roundtable, "I'm restructuring my work habits." - Greg Critser, Generation Rx: How Prescription Drugs are Altering American Lives, Minds, and Bodies (Get the book.) "There were other places to find them as well: at YMCAs, in low-income churches, and by networking through the home health care programs of community hospitals. Kilpatrick was then able to show how such tactics had worked in "saving" one large company's launch of a new drug for major depression disorder. "At an approximate cost of $600,000, the rescue recruitment program gained 125 new randomized clinical-trial patients ... and brought the study in on schedule. Without the agency's assistance, the study would have been delayed by 8.6 months." - Greg Critser, Generation Rx: How Prescription Drugs are Altering American Lives, Minds, and Bodies (Get the book.) "The three principal virtues of the earlier generation — dedication, specialization, and loyalty — have been replaced by three new attributes — networking, flexibility, and constant reeducation. And new expectations: the average work year for prime-age working couples has increased by at least one hundred hours in the last two decades. Just like pharma CEOs, we are increasingly conscious of our performance in almost all areas of our lives, and with that increased consciousness comes a toll on body, mind, and spirit." - Greg Critser, Generation Rx: How Prescription Drugs are Altering American Lives, Minds, and Bodies (Get the book.)

"They are networking together to form a community of food producers who want to produce high-quality food and make a decent living doing so. It is a battle to maintain financial dignity, a rural way of life, and provide something of true health value to the American people. It is part of our culture. It is a battle of David versus Goliath, and they need our help. Helping is easy—buy their food. Get to know your local farmers who support the cause of raising and growing food in harmony with nature. It is a lot easier to trust people when you can talk to them." - Byron J. Richards, The Leptin Diet: How Fit Is Your Fat? (Get the book.)

"Following an era defined by aggressive networking and persona-building, however, the benefits might be limited. But as large tracts of what were once private data become public, the Internet can increasingly enable the due diligence that should not only apply with respect to business and financial matters but to relationships of all sorts. There are pitfalls in acquiring intelligence online, not the least of which is the amount of worthless, incorrect, and misleading information in circulation. Then there are the inherent difficulties of wading through large volumes of information." - Michael J. Panzner, Financial Armageddon: Protecting Your Future from Four Impending Catastrophes (Get the book.) "Under the circumstances, efforts that address the revenue side of the personal finance equation should include constant networking, updating resumes, developing preplanned job searches, engaging in ongoing marketplace assessments, and taking concrete steps to enhance and expand skill sets. Securing additional education or training in related fields and exploring alternative or secondary career options should also be part of the process." - Michael J. Panzner, Financial Armageddon: Protecting Your Future from Four Impending Catastrophes (Get the book.)

"Jon Stahl of ONE/Northwest (Online networking for the Environment) suggested on his blog that climate-change activists organize around the movie because "big movie releases can be a news hook for discussion of serious issues." At first, environmental organizations hesitated to latch onto the film because they feared that the over-the-top scenarios and extreme special effects would cause audiences to dismiss the reality of climate change. But the online murmurings continued (including at WorldChanging.com), and soon the mainstream press caught on." - Alex Steffen, Worldchanging: A User's Guide for the 21st Century (Get the book.)

"Dunkley is also a director of networking For Industry and was named as special adviser to the APHG.13 With 37 years' experi- 10 Eaton has worked in the NHS for over 30 years.

"This is one example of how effective networking with the outside world helps create healing and balance inside the human body. It appears, therefore, that one way of making a difference for people with connective tissue disorders is by helping them to become connected to the world in a meaningful way. In simple terms, this often means becoming who they are, rather than the person people expect them to be. Mary and Bill's Story At 57 Mary was the envy of all her friends. Her husband Bill, six years older than her, had been a highly successful businessman with a chain of bookshops." - Robin, Dr. Kelly, The Human Antenna: Reading the Language of the Universe in the Songs of Our Cells (Get the book.)

"The APGH was set up by networking for Industry and is administered by NFI from its Southwark offices. While the Associate Parliamentary Group on Health itself has all the appearance of being well grounded and exempt from conflict interests, the group has linked to it a panel of high-powered advisers. These advisers, drawn from experts with the narrowest specialised interests, are dominated by Labour modernisers and by Wyeth-Lederle interests." - Martin J. Walker, HRT Licensed to Kill and Maim: The Unheard Voices of Women Damaged by Hormone Replacement Therapy (Get the book.) "However, in the business of selling drugs to the government, and of participating in health policy outside its formal committees, networking for Industry (NFI) has taken over. NFI is quite a different organisation from PSL because, although it leans heavily towards NHS modernisers, Wyeth Pharmaceuticals has considerable influence on its board.6 The company claims to be 'dedicated to stimulating positive change in the UK by generating dialogue and understanding between key stakeholders on important issues'." - Martin J. Walker, HRT Licensed to Kill and Maim: The Unheard Voices of Women Damaged by Hormone Replacement Therapy (Get the book.)

"Care is a networking of different chiropractic techniques using gentle, specific touches in a consistent sequence to produce healing waves of relaxation. Developed in 1982 by New York chiropractor Dr. Donald Epstein the process enables chiropractors to release large amounts of spinal tension from patients. By using light touch to the spine the patient's body learns to release patterns of tension, resulting in even deeper tensions being released." - Alan E. Smith, UnBreak Your Health: The Complete Guide to Complementary & Alternative Therapies (Get the book.)

"Barry Sheerman, New Labour MP for Huddersfield since 1983, chairman of the Commons Education Select Committee and also a leading figure in networking for Industry. Labour peer Lord Evans of Watford, non-executive chief executive officer, Union Income Benefit Holdings pic from 2001. The Steering Group of PSL has around 35 members who represent either government departments, national agencies, or large corporations which include: Scottish Water, Willmott Dixon, BAE Systems, Siemens, British Energy, Orange, the CBI, the Dti, and some University academic departments." - Martin J.

"No one individual can ever possibly hope to learn all there is to know about a given subject, but, thanks to networking, you can access all the information you need, when you need it. The number one advantage of networking is this: Whenever you need a particular piece of information or knowledge, you know where to obtain it on short notice. If it's a Knowledge Network, you have compiled a written listing of practical experts; if it's a Mutual Interest Network, you have every other participant to call on. In either case, you have greatly multiplied the knowledge-resources available to you." - Scott Witt, How to Be Twice as Smart: Boosting Your Brainpower and Unleashing the Miracles of Your Mind (Get the book.) "Just as with every other technique outlined in this book, networking allows you to greatly expand your mental power. Many of the techniques in earlier chapters had you using your mental power to tap hidden inner resources; in this chapter, you're learning how to tap outside resources. No one individual can ever possibly hope to learn all there is to know about a given subject, but, thanks to networking, you can access all the information you need, when you need it." - Scott Witt, How to Be Twice as Smart: Boosting Your Brainpower and Unleashing the Miracles of Your Mind (Get the book.)

"These machines had around 32k of memory, a word processor on an installed chip and the only means of saving files was to a floppy disk on an external drive. No networking, no modem, definitely no Internet. One evening, the computer was accidentally left on and when Webster and his girlfriend Debbie returned there was a 'message', a poem of sorts. It was treated as a joke of course, but saved to disk anyway. A different machine was borrowed on another occasion and another inexplicable communication was received. This time the language had an archaic flavour, seemingly of Elizabethan English." - Keith Scott-Mumby, Virtual Medicine: A New Dimension in Energy Healing (Get the book.)
