Did you know what Tourette Syndrome is?
Tourette syndrome simply called Tourette’s or TS is an inheritedneuropsychiatric disorder with onset in childhood, characterized by multiple physical (motor) tics and at least one vocal (phonic) tic; these tics characteristically wax and wane. Tourette’s is defined as part of a spectrum of tic disorders, which includes transient and chronic tics.
Did you know that Tourette’s was once considered a rare and bizarre syndrome? Tourette is often associated with the exclamation of obscene words or socially inappropriate and derogatory remarks (coprolalia), but this symptom is present in only a small minority of people with Tourette’s.?
Did you know that 1 and 10 children per 1,000 have Tourette’s;[2] as many as 10 per 1,000 people may have tic disorders? The more common tics of eye blinking, coughing, throat clearing, sniffing, and facial movements.
Did you know that people with Tourette’s have normal life expectancy and intelligence?
Did you know that the severity of the tics decreases for most children as they pass through adolescence, and extreme Tourette’s in adulthood is a rarity?
Did you know that Tics are sudden, repetitive, stereotyped, nonrhythmic movements (motor tics) and utterances (phonic tics) that involve discrete muscle groups?[8] Motor tics are movement-based tics, while phonic tics are involuntary sounds produced by moving air through the nose, mouth, or throat.
Did you know that their are several different symptom of Tourette’s?
Did you know that Coprolalia (the spontaneous utterance of socially objectionable or taboo words or phrases) is the most publicized symptom of Tourette’s, but it is not required for a diagnosis of Tourette’s and only about 10% of Tourette’s patients exhibit it?
Did you know that Echolalia (repeating the words of others) and palilalia (repeating one’s own words) occur in a minority of cases,[8] while the most common initial motor and vocal tics are, respectively, eye blinking and throat clearing?
Did you know that a person with Tourette’s has about a 50% chance of passing the gene(s) to one of his or her children, but Tourette’s is a condition of variable expression and incomplete penetrance?
Did you know that not everyone who inherits the genetic vulnerability will show symptoms; even close family members may show different severities of symptoms, or no symptoms at all?
. The gene(s) may express as Tourette’s, as a milder tic disorder (transient or chronic tics), or as obsessive–compulsive symptoms without tics. Only a minority of the children who inherit the gene(s) have symptoms severe enough to require medical attention.[36] Gender appears to have a role in the expression of the genetic vulnerability: males are more likely than females to express tics.[25

Who is Los Lobos?
Who is Los Lobos? The Hispanic Music world knows them as “The Wolves”, Los Lobos is an American Chicano rock band. They are three-time Grammy Award winners. Their music is influenced by rock and roll, Tex-Mex, country music, folk, R&B, blues, and traditional Spanish and Mexican music such as boleros and norteños. Mexican-American roots-rock group Los Lobos has been performing and releasing albums since the late 1970s.
//
History
Los Lobos released an independent LP in 1978 and an EP in 1983. Their first major-label, critically acclaimed release was 1984‘s T-Bone Burnett-produced How Will the Wolf Survive? In 1986, members of Los Lobos appeared alongside Tomata du Plenty in the punk rock musical Population: 1. In 1987, they released a second album 
entitled By the Light of the Moon. In the same year, they recorded some Ritchie Valens covers for the soundtrack to the film La Bamba, including the title track which became a number one single for the band. In 1988 they followed with another album, titled La Pistola y El Corazón and featuring original and traditional Mexican songs, which sold poorly.
The band’s first noteworthy public appearance occurred in 1980 at the Olympic Auditorium in Los Angeles when they were hired by David Ferguson and CD Presents to open for Public Image Ltd. In the late 1980s and early 1990s the band toured extensively throughout the world, opening for such acts as Bob Dylan, U2 and the Grateful Dead.
Los Lobos returned with The Neighborhood in 1990, and the creative and wildly experimental Kiko (produced by Mitchell Froom) in 1992. In 1991, the band contributed a lively cover of Bertha http://www.youtube.com/v/qxGeMjbW-54?fs=1&hl=en_US, a song which they often performed live, to the Grateful Dead tribute/rain forest benefit album Deadicated. In 1994 they also contributed a track, Down Where the Drunkards Roll, http://www.youtube.com/v/arqRV1RWXGI?fs=1&hl=en_USto the Richard Thompson tribute album Beat the Retreat.
On the band’s twenty-year anniversary they released a two-CD collection of singles, out-takes, live recordings and hits entitled Just Another Band from East L.A.
In 1995, Los Lobos released the prestigious and bestselling record Papa’s Dream on Music for Little People Records along with veteran guitarist and singer Lalo Guerrero. The band also scored the film Desperado.http://www.youtube.com/v/xZdZv3kT9xk?fs=1&hl=en_US The album track “Mariachi Suite”http://www.youtube.com/v/JBVumoSGBKo?fs=1&hl=en_US won a Grammy Award for Best Pop Instrumental Performance, and stands as their last Grammy Award to date (the other two Grammy Awards were in the category of Best Mexican-American Performance in 1983 and 1989 for the song Anselma http://www.youtube.com/v/70hbzXf2Zk8?fs=1&hl=en_US and the album La Pistola y El Corazon.
In 1996 they released Colossal Head. In spite of the fact that the album was critically acclaimed, Warner Brothers decided to drop the band from their roster. Los Lobos spent the next few years on side projects.
Los Lobos signed to Hollywood Records in 1999, and released This Time. Hollywood also reissued 1977′s Del Este de Los Angeles. In 2000, Rhino/Warner Archives released the Cancionero: Mas y Mas boxed set.
In 2002, the band released their Mammoth Records debut, Good Morning Aztlan; they released The Ride in 2004. The Ride featured artists such as Tom Waits, Mavis Staples, Bobby Womack and Elvis Costello covering Los Lobos music along with the band.
Los Lobos released its first full-length live-show DVD Live at¨the Fillmore in 2004. The DVD captures the band’s act over a two-day period in July at the famed San Francisco venue.http://www.youtube.com/v/kqzK_1bMg1c?fs=1&hl=en_US
In September 2006, Los Lobos released The Town and the City to much critical acclaim. The album’s lyrics deal with Louis Perez’s childhood in East Los Angeles while the music portrays complex and original soundscapes reminiscent of their previous release Kiko. Cartoonist Jaime Hernandez did the artwork for the album.
In 2007 the group performed the song Billy 1, Bob Dylan‘s cover from Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid album, recorded in I’m Not There soundtrack.
One of the group’s albums is an album of Disney movie covers released in September 2009 on Disney Sound. Their latest Hollywood Records release is “The Town and The City”. The epic “The Town and The City” is told in the first-person, with each song serving as an episodic step.http://www.youtube.com/v/tnTAms7P1SQ?fs=1&hl=en_US
Los Lobos were the scheduled closing act for the 2009 Epcot International Food & Wine Festival.
