Jack of All Trades was released on March 6, 2012 by Bruce Springsteen. You may not be familiar with this song unless you are a true fan of “the Boss.” This song is considered in the folk-rock genre and was on his seventeenth album.
“Jack of all trades” is a saying implying someone who has skills in different areas. The newer GLP-1 medications may qualify as such.
The GLP-1s include semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) and the combination of GLP-1/GIP drug tirzepatide (Mounjaro, Zepbound). Studies are evaluating their potential benefits beyond managing diabetes and weight loss. These areas include rheumatic disease, cancer and addiction.
Rheumatic diseases include gout, varying types of arthritis, lupus and fibromyalgia. The impact of rheumatic diseases has led researchers to look at new treatments.
Beginning with an organizational meeting held in a closed door executive session, the Village of Ada Council held its first meeting of the new year on January 7. Members of the public were present at both the council chambers and on Zoom.
