A skin patch test is a way of identifying whether a substance that comes in contact with the skin is causing an irritation or inflammation of the skin called contact dermatitis. Commonly referred to as ezcema, contact dermatitis is caused by either irritant contact or allergic contact.
Patients suffering from dermatitis should undergo a skin patch test to determine if the dermatitis is a result of a contact allergy or simply an irritant reaction. Allergic contact dermatitis is specific to an individual and to a substance. When the substance comes in contact with the skin, a rash or irritation will develop.
Dr. Drozdowski will examine the existing irritation and evaluate potential causes for its development, discussing with you use of cosmetics and toiletries, occupation, lifestyle, and more. After the initial discovery phase, the doctor will determine which allergens should be tested for and a patch test will be performed.
During a skin patch test, small amounts of the allergen are placed on the skin in patches for a period of 48 hours. Upon removal of the patches, Dr. Drozdowski will rate the reaction to each allergen, ranging from simply an irritant reaction to severe allergic reaction.
The results of the skin patch test will determine which substances your skin has an allergic reaction to.
If you are suffering from dermatitis, knowing the cause is of utmost importance in avoiding future re-occurances. To schedule an appointment for a skin patch test, we invite you to call our office at (616) 552-8492.
Start on the path to healthier skin...

As the spare unit was 25 miles away then the day could not be redeemed and we removed the offending item at the end of the day. Bits of molten copper dropping out of it convinced me it was time to send it to the repair shop!
I've since fitted the replacement 'as new' motor and the 125 AMP control fuse that also blew. The motor has to endure very high speeds and from time to time they do fail.

American heavy rock legends Tool are going to tour the Eastern half of North America in May and June, highlighted by a show at the Bell Centre in Montréal on the evening of June 2. TicketProcess.com is thrilled to announce that they have already amassed a large inventory of tickets stocked to this highly-anticipated concert.
Tool took a bold approach to creating music after being formed in Los Angeles in 1990 thanks in large part to Maynard James Keenan. The man initially made the trek from Ohio to Southern California so he could be a prolific interior designer, but things took a turn early, and he ended up being a legendary rock star.
Tool became the defining voice for fans and an escape for folks made tired by traditional rock. Some of their lyrics and some of their songs actually crossed the line of free speech according to important entities, and MTV yanked one of their songs and videos from its airwaves back when MTV used to air music and music videos.
The group has produced exactly four studio albums since they sprang on the scene 27 years ago. There have been rumors circulating and legitimate chat going down on message boards that Tool will be releasing their fifth studio album sometime in 2017.
As of now, the specifics involving that are unclear. What is clear is their intention to tour North America with at least nine shows – including a few in Canada.
The Bell Centre has woven itself into the fabric of the large metropolis. The building is a large, impressive, sturdy and architecturally-creative rectangle-shaped spot situated in the middle of downtown Montréal. With a capacity of 22,000 for hockey and as many as 16,000 for live concerts, ticket options abound. All fans interested in watching living legends of alternative rock work their craft live can find Tool Montréal tickets now at TicketProcess.com.

Why Flying Private is Safer
Why Flying Private is Safer
In 2020, flying commercial and maintaining proper social distance are mutually exclusive. Commercial flights mean putting your family, friends, and self at risk. With UberJets' private aviation opportunities, we eliminate these issues. Although flying private is more expensive than commercial flights, the health advantages are invaluable.
Private jets use smaller, more exclusive terminals(FBOs) with significantly less traffic. At most FBOs, you are not made to go through the same security process as flying commercially, and far fewer people will touch your belongings; a common practice at many FBOs is boarding and departure as soon as possible. Instead of interacting with strangers at the airport and on the plane; the only passengers you won't know are the health-conscious flight crew. While risk can never be eliminated in the age of Coronavirus, flying private has markedly less risk than commercial.
Many private jet companies allow travelers to be dropped off straight to the aircraft without going into the terminal. Many clients take advantage of that one. As an UberJets member, we provide you with free car service, an aircraft that is cleaned before every flight, and the stress-free private aviation experience. In short, the UberJets experience is the safest travel option. Fly safe, fly UberJets!

UberJets Trip Booking Procedure
UberJets Trip Booking Procedure
UberJets Trip Booking Procedure and why it's a bad idea to shop around for private jet charter pricing:
UberJets trip booking procedure: The idea of searching high and low for the best pricing in the market is usually the best avenue to take. However, in the private aviation charter industry, it is quite the opposite. With UberJets, having to reach out to operators from all over the map is no longer your problem. You directly provide us with your desired flight, through the Let's Jet app or client service rep, and leave it to us to get you the most competitive market price.
When not using UberJets simple booking procedure, the process becomes more complicated because the operators receive too many of the same flight inquiries. The influx of the same trip request across the market results in exaggerated pricing, therefore you will not receive a true wholesale price that UberJets will provide for you.
When we are the sole communicator with the operators, we will get direct, wholesale pricing. UberJets has years of established relationships with these operators that allow us to provide you, the member, with the best price without the hassle.

Cessna Citation Excel
Cessna Citation Excel
The Cessna Citation Excel is a popular midsize private jet part of the Citation family. Cessna saw a market for a jet with the Citation X's features but serves the more traditional market, which manufacturers then developed into the first Excel.
The Citation Excel was a combination of both technology and design from other models in the Citation family. They took the wide, stand up cabin from the Citation X, then used the supercritical airfoil to reduce drag from the Citation Ultra, then added the same tail as the Citation V. The Excel consists of all the best parts of all the other aircraft in the family, and has the roomiest cabin of any aircraft in its class, seating a max of 9 passengers. What makes the Excel so popular is that it has all the specs of a mid-size jet, but can travel at a light jet cost. The aircraft also only needs a runway of 3,590ft to take off, which is the shortest take-off distance of any other mid-size jet. The Pratt & Whitney dual engines make it out-perform all over aircraft in its class with exceptional speed, low drag, and a very quiet cabin. Overall, the Citation Excel is an aircraft that can be used for any mission, out of any airport, using any runway. It is another great private jet option in the Cessna Citation Family.

Shortage in Private Jet Pilots and Technicians
NBAA heads to congress to discuss the shortage of private jet pilots and technicians
There has been a trend in not only the private jet industry but the aviation industry in general. The pilot and technician population is increasing in age while having a shortage of new pilots joining the industry. We are getting to the point where experienced workers are hitting the mandatory retiring age of 65, but this leaves the industry a shortage of workers. NBAA noted to congress that Boeing will need 645,000 new commercial pilots and nearly 100,000 new business aircraft pilots worldwide over the next 20 years, and that is just one company. There is a projected worldwide demand for almost 770,000 new aviation technicians over the next 20 years. Private jet pilots and technicians needs to be in demand.
The supply of pilots has decreased by 30% because the average age of currently employed pilots is 51, and new potential candidates are no longer choosing aviation as a career path. This becomes an issue since the aviation industry keeps increasing, particularly private jet travel. There needs to be an increase in these employees to keep the U.S as the leader in air travel. NBAA praised the committee for helping to pass the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2018, which includes several workforce development initiatives, including grant programs to support the education of future aircraft pilots and the recruitment of aviation maintenance technicians.

Private Jet Travel: Why It's Greener Than You Think
Private Jet Travel: Why It's Greener Than You Think
Private jet travel always had a stigma attached to it when it comes to the environment and global warming. Some people believe that private jets cause unnecessary damage to the planet, however, private jet travel is less harmful than what the public believes. Private jets are not the problem, even though it's popular to blame them.
The private jet industry has been very conscious about going greener. Many companies are converting to more sustainable fuel alternatives and carbon offset programs. In fact, according to NBAA, The whole industry had a 50% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions since 2005. People also overlook and down-play the environmental effect of mass tourism and large commercial flights. For example, a six-hour round trip on a commercial airliner emits 149 tonnes of CO2. Comparably, the same rough trip flight on a Citation X emits 12.5 tonnes of CO2. The commercial airliner has over ten times the amount of carbon emission than the private jet. Also, private jet travel is more efficient, meaning less wait time ground and delays, cutting on the ground emissions tremendously.
The general public's bashing of private jet travel is more fun than factual. Studies have shown that private jets do not have as much of a harmful effect on the environment as people believe. The entire industry is very mindful of their carbon footprint and is always searching for "greener" alternatives. The commercial airline industry should be scrutinized as well since commercial aircraft emit over ten times the amount of carbon emissions than a private jet. Unfortunately, people care more about headlines and drama than facts.

Why Private Aviation is Beneficial for the Country
Why Private Aviation is good for the country
"Business aviation contributes $150 billion to U.S. economic output and employs more than 1.2 million people. General aviation activities – including sales of new and previously owned airplanes, as well as maintenance and other operational support – generate substantial financial benefits for every state in the nation." – NBAA Business Aviation Fact Book
Private/Business aviation serves over ten times the amount of airports as commercial aviation. Many times are employing people not based around the typical large cities and in rural areas where a steady, well-paying job with excellent benefits for the family can be a real blessing. Almost 60% of businesses in the private aviation industry have less than 500 employees; these are the "mom and pop" operations so vital to our identity. It is not just pilots or aircraft owners who benefit from private aviation. The truck driver who transports the fuel to the airport, the food service employees, or the taxi drivers and their families all benefit. Not to mention, those who fly private generate a large amount of positive economic activity in these areas, whether by shopping, dining, traveling, or staying in hotels in the area.
The environmental argument
Yes, we are aware, without getting into politics, climate change and global warming are hot-button issues right now. But let's look at the facts courtesy of the NBAA Aviation Fact Book. "Business aviation has a small carbon footprint and an exemplary environmental record. Aviation emissions are only a tiny fraction of all transportation emissions, and business aircraft emissions are a small portion of those. The industry has a long history of continually leveraging technology to minimize noise and emissions while improving safety and efficiency." -NBAA

"He who conquers himself is the mightiest warrior" – Confucius
Today in our weekly yoga ASANA series we are taking a look at VIRABHADRASANA III. This powerful posture is the third of the three well-known WARRIOR poses in Yoga and it has a very interesting historical background. All of the three warrior poses are strong and active asanas that challenge the mind as much as they challenge the body, especially when being held for longer periods. They are a symbol for the transformational energy that Yoga can have in our life and a great way to mindfully build up physical strength and endurance. This will help YOU to face the challenges life with CONFIDENCE!
Warrior Three Pose
Starting from mountain pose: on an inhale extend your arms above you towards the ceiling, palms touching each other. On an exhale begin to extend your right leg straight back behind you as you shift your weight into your left foot. Find a strong line of energy by keeping your foot and leg actively engaged. Check that the right hip stays at the same height as the left by keeping your hip bones parallel. It helps to firmly engage the left quadricep to keep the standing leg strong without locking it out. Try to straighten both legs out as much as possible without straining. In a next step, start bringing the torso parallel to the mat by activating your abdominals, back muscles and bhandas. Keep the gaze dow and avoid tensing the neck. Hold the pose for 5 to 10 breaths. To come out, slowly bring the right foot back to meet the left and raise your upper body back to a vertical position. Repeat on the other side.
The deeper meaning of the three WARRIOR poses and their symbolic character is rooted in an ancient saga of the Hindu mythology. According to the legend, the priest DAKSHA was holding an important ceremony, but his daughter SATI and her husband SHIVA, the most powerful of the gods in the Hindu religion. Nevertheless, Sati decided to go to the ceremony and ended up in an argument with her father, making her so desperate that she threw herself into a fire. Shiva was devastated when he heard about his wife's death. In his agony he ripped out a lock of his hair and where it touched the floor, a powerful WARRIOR arose. Shiva named him VIRABHADRA. In Sanskrit, Vira means hero and Bhadra means friend. Shiva then ordered him to take revenge on Sati's father and the guests of the ceremony. The third of the WARRIOR poses embodies the warrior as he is moving swiftly and precisely the sword with his hand.
Warrior is an excellent muscle strengthening AND lengthening pose, especially for the legs, quadriceps, abdominals and back muscles. This asana also improves you sense of balance, coordination, and can assist with posture issues. On a psychological level in helps to focus the mind and built confidence as you hold this powerful posture.
Dear Yogis – never forget that YOU are strong, powerful and capable of so much more than you might think – a TURE WARRIOR! Within each and everyone of us there is an infinite source of resilience and power that gets more and more accessible to our consciousness as we practice mindfulness, meditation and physical yoga asanas.
We wish you a ENERGIZING and EMPOWERING WARRIOR practice – be fierce and let your SUPERPOWER radiate – on and off the mat!

In the midst of covering the worst drought to hit the Midwest in half a century, an NBC reporter kept stumbling upon a plant that didn't seem to mind the water shortage. When she asked farmers in Iowa about the marijuana, which she spotted growing just about everywhere, even on the side of the road, they shrugged. They called it "ditchweed" and mostly seemed annoyed that the local police kept asking them to pull it up.
As a weed, marijuana is pretty drought-friendly. It may come under fire for sucking down too much water in parched California, but it doesn't actually need a ton of it to survive. Furthermore, marijuana has been shown to thrive under higher CO2 concentrations, as well as water scarce conditions. Some research even indicates that its psychotropic properties may become more potent in stressed conditions. Weed, it seems, was built to boom in our climate-changed world.
"Marijuana is a very drought-tolerant plant. It's a weed, and they grow anywhere," DEA agent Bill Weinman told the Rocky Mountain News during a dry spell in 2002. "Drought has little effect on pot crops: Plants prove hearty, surpassing yields of state's other crops." Authorities tasked with cracking down on illegal grow operations had long noted that marijuana seemed undeterred by drought.
In fact, a 1988 AP story about the seizure of unusually healthy plants in Virginia—again, during a drought—came packaged with the headline "Drought May Make Marijuana More Potent." The reporter interviewed a Virginia Tech researcher who believed that alkaloids in marijuana would grow more concentrated under hotter weather, as they do in tobacco and coca plants.
Now we know that the active ingredient in cannabis is tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, which isn't an alkaloid. It is produced by the plant as a pest repellant, however, and research indicates that cannabis produces more of it when it's stressed—subjected to drought, or disease.
Lewis Ziska, a plant physiologist with the US Department of Agriculture, and USDA ethno-botanist James Duke, both say their research shows that stressors will increase the plants' "medicinal" properties.
"[T]he more stress a plant gets—heat or cold or disease or just plain beating it—the more medicinal and less edible it becomes," Duke recently told the Daily Climate, which published a summary some of the reasons marijuana might become more potent under climate change.
Ziska, meanwhile, has shown that as CO2 levels in the atmosphere increase, most plants, including marijuana, will benefit.
The basic science of why this is the case takes us back millions of years: the vast majority of plant species, Ziska says, evolved in periods where the standard carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere was much higher, closer to 1,000 parts per million. Humans, meanwhile, evolved when CO2 levels were much lower—around 280-300 parts per million. While that level was ideal for people, with the temperate climes and all, most plants never truly adapted to the CO2 deprivation.
Now, as humans are pumping more CO2 back into the atmosphere, at an unprecedented pace, those plants are loving it.
Further research backs this up: A 2009 study published in Physiology and Molecular Biology of Plants tested those hypotheses in a real-world environment, and found that marijuana grew quite well in carbon concentrations of 750 ppm, the highest amount tested. The authors concluded that their findings demonstrate marijuana's "potential for better survival, growth and productivity in a drier and CO2 rich environment."
A follow up study from the same authors confirmed as much: Primarily due to its "decreased stomatal conductance and subsequently the transpiration rate," the researchers found that marijuana's makeup "may enable this species to survive under expected harsh greenhouse effects including elevated CO2 concentration and drought conditions."
Meanwhile, weed was already getting too good. Add in the fact that growers have been on a decades-long quest to grow super-potent pot strains on their own accord—some recent indoor-grown strains have tested as high as 33 percent THC, while in 1978, the average strain of marijuana had a THC level of 1.37 percent—and the future is looking quite interesting for the nation's preferred drug to pair with sitting on the couch and watching TV. (Which also happens to be how we have mostly reacted to climate change.)
Marijuana is pretty much the perfect drug for the climate apocalypse—it thrives in elevated CO2, embraces drought conditions, and may even become stronger yet as the world warms.
It's a reminder that climate change is everywhere, propelling transformations that are sometimes minuscule, sometimes drastic. Not even weed is untouched by our fossil fuel habits. If we don't cut back, I guess we can at least settle into those higher temps with a buzz, and watch the rising seas with a glazed-over mellow. Maybe get a few visuals to distract from the sunburn.
