Quackademic Medicine at Jefferson University Hospitals
I detest the term "integrative medicine," which is what promoters of "alternative medicine" pivoted to call "complementary and alternative medicine" (CAM) when they decided that they needed to lose the word "alternative" altogether. After all, no longer were CAM practitioners content to have their favorite quackery be "complementary" to real medicine because "complementary" implied a subsidiary position and they wanted to be co-equals with physicians and science- and evidence-based medicine. The term "integrative medicine" (IM) served their purpose perfectly, and "integrative medicine" departments, centers, and divisions have sprouted up in academia like kudzu growing over a telephone pole . Or perhaps it's more appropriate to say that it's invaded and metastasized like a cancer.
The most recent bit of evidence that I see for the triumph of "integrative medicine" in academia, or, as I like to call it, quackademic medicine, comes from Thomas Jefferson University and Jefferson University Hospitals. There, it comes in the form of a post to the JUH Blog entitled Is Integrative Medicine Right for Your Kids? 5 Myths Debunked When I first saw this post, I must admit that it really disturbed me to learn that there is an actual Integrative Pediatrics Program at Jefferson, of which the author of this blog post, Dr. Christina DiNicola , is the director. This bastion of quackademic medicine appears to be part of the the Myrna Brind Center Of Integrative Medicine . As if that weren't bad enough, it appears that Jefferson has a lot of woo embedded in it, and that makes me sad. Actually, seeing woo like this in any academic medical center makes me sad.
To counter that sadness, rather amusingly, I observed that in "debunking" these "myths" about integrative medicine Dr. DiNicola actually went a long way towards inadvertently confirming just how unscientific "integrative" medicine is. It starts out in another most amusing fashion:

With that in mind, we articulated three goals through our drawings and site visits. We hoped to create the sense that the walls were pushing out, not closing in, so we avoided dense browns, opting for a light linen paint similar in tone to the grasses

Meguiar's offers many cleaner polishes that varies in aggressiveness. Ultimate Compound, SwirlX or ScratchX 2.0 come to mind when you think about removing swirls and defects. Now, Meguiar's usually recommends using the least aggressive method to get the job done. Since you already have Ultimate Compound, it will certainly do the job of removing swirls and defects from your silver metallic paint job. However, there could be less aggressive products that can do the same job without removing as much clear. You might want to try out SwirlX first and see if it removes the swirls of your paint... If it doesn't then you need to step up to ScratchX 2.0 and see if it removes your problems. If not then you need to step it up to ultimate compound. You get the idea. For more information about product aggressiveness, please read Aggressiveness Order for New Consumer Products . what i want to know which polish should i use to take out light swirls on my silver metallic paint.
