CBC News - Health - Admitting errors reduces them: Montreal hospital

Sun, 08 Nov 2009 10:08:04 -0800

From the page: "I made a mistake - let's see what this can do to make this safer for our patients. We do this all the time, and we are very proud of it." very unusual policy for a hospital.

Hey, guess what, I was born there (however I am not Jewish - my mother's doctor was, and this is where he had priveleges .. does this make me an honorary member?) It's cool that something cool is going on at the hospital where I was born. Cool to me, anyway. To you, likely not.

Congratulations to Congress - a step in the right direction, away from the outdated "Hey, I'm OK but don't ask me for any help" mentality.

The Worlds Most Influential People - The 2009 TIME 100 - TIME

Sat, 07 Nov 2009 10:19:37 -0800

hmm, how the heck would Time magazine know who is influencing people? did they poll the entire world or what? or are they pushing on us those whom they would like to believe are influential? They should have called this "America's most famous approved celebrities"

Swine Flu -- One of the Most Massive Cover-ups in American History

Sat, 07 Nov 2009 09:34:35 -0800

From the page: "There is a dramatic disconnect between what the science is discovering about this flu virus and what is being broadcast over the media outlets.

The recently completed study on the effectiveness of the new H1N1 vaccine reported by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease found that 75% of small children below age 35 months received no protection from the H1N1 vaccine and that 65% of children between the ages of 3 years and 9 years received no protection from the vaccine.

The tests for safety and to assess complications lasted only 7 days after the vaccine, an incredibly short period of follow-up. Gullian Barre paralysis can occur even months after a vaccine as can seizures, behavioral problems and neurodevelopmental disorders in children.

It is interesting to note that the authors of the safety study for our swine flu vaccine were all employees of the maker of the vaccine CSL Biotherapeutics and eight held equity interest in the company."

BBC NEWS | Middle East | Clinton urges new Mid-East talks

Sat, 31 Oct 2009 19:18:10 -0700

seems to me that the major barrier is the right to have an ever-changing border. Has this ever been bestowed before, on any land? The right to keep getting bigger, ad infinitum. Is this a lot to ask of the concurrent landowners and the world in general? Is it too much to ask? Let's acknowledge that the right to grow is something which needs closer scrutiny, because it lies at the centre of the dispute.
