WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. – Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center was again named one of the nation's 100 "Most Wired" hospitals and health care systems by Hospitals & Health Networks, the journal of the American Hospital Association. The award is based on the fourth annual survey of the nation's health care systems on their use of Internet technologies to connect with patients, physicians and nurses, payers, health plans and employees.
"This is another example of the Medical Center's continued commitment to improving patient safety and satisfaction through the use of information technology." said Jon Brown, information services security officer for the Medical Center.
Hospitals & Health Networks received information from more than 300 organizations representing 794 acute care hospitals via an eight-page online survey. The magazine's analysis of the data revealed that the nation's most wired hospitals enjoyed several advantages over the less wired hospitals: better control of expenses, higher productivity, more efficient utilization management and better credit ratings.
The survey covered online capability in areas such as scheduling appointments, health information and news releases, disease state management, and physician referral.
The 100 Most Wired were named in the July issue of Hospitals & Health Networks.

What is the difference between strong and b tag?
This post was edited by puneetchauhan on Wed, Oct 30, 13 at 7:44
They look the same to me... Tag Result b Sample text strong Sample text i Sample text em Sample text
I won't pretend to have the language skills to understand this explanation but anyway:
And to add to my confusion, HTML5 apparently redefines the b and i tags to have the semantic meaning it once lacked:
Personally, I'm too lazy and uneducated to understand the difference, except perhaps as it pertains to using a screen-reader, so I use the method with the least keystrokes. I don't design web pages professionally though. If I did, I'd probably start using strong and em and pretend I knew why. :)

Pakistan Tries To Ban Encryption 185
from the shh-don't-tell-the-other-countries dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
...now I just have to get hold of a few Pakistani bank IP addys, set up some sort of listener, and...
Oh, you thought SSL would still be around after this little law gets into effect?
(obviously I'm kidding, at least about wanting to do any such thing. OTOH, there are quite a few folks who probably wouldn't be kidding at all).
The particulars may vary, but the essence is that you try to forbid people to have secrets from you.
Once you see it in this light, the paradoxical futility becomes clear.
I hope they make good use of it.
As Pakistan turns into Talibanistan it will become a massive threat to the region.
They're interested in content rather than b/w utilisation. I suggest you RTFA...no-matter how preposterous it may sound.
Instead of generic encrypted traffic now users will to resort to stenography. Just embed encrypted traffic in otherwise boring video streams and pictures.
I take it no one does any actual work over the internet in Pakistan?! How about banking, stock trades, online purchases? How ass-backwards is this country?
Wow, way to make sure your country can never have any outsourcing jobs. No business with a clue would ever set up operations in a country where all traffic has to be open to corporate espionage.
They're going to be in the technological dark ages forever if this persists, vs. following India into the cheap outsourcing market.
To downgrade the human mind is bad theology. - C. K. Chesterton

RIP, Sir Terry Pratchett
66 years old. Far, far too soon.
One of the few authors for whom Kate and I have tried to maintain a complete collection. We've never quite been able to keep up, because this brilliant, funny, angry man was simply so prolific.
He is one of my favorite authors to read; I did so in small doses because even the lightest-seeming book contained themes that deserved weeks or months of reflection.
He was a giant, and he will be missed.
Pratchett Himself
Terry Pratchett kindly posed with his hat for us.
Hit the dog park this morning with Kate. Spent most of the walk getting her reaction(s) to the new book, so it's already a pretty good day
It's difficult, I've found, to figure out what you've got when you finish a big story (and this one is big) – it's like working as a blind sculptor: you know the shape of the thing as you perceive it, but really have no idea if it scans as intended for anyone else.
Kate's approach to reading something new is always as a reader, first and foremost – for the enjoyment of it – and after having put parts of this thing through so many technical feedback loops and workshops, getting a "reader reaction" from someone was so incredibly helpful (and gets me past the post-completion "I suspect this thing I made is terrible" funk.)
The upshot of the conversation was "the story is doing all the things I want it to do," so I'm happy.
I've been thinking about this more and more as I consider the idea of friction — of resistance — in my life, and how to eliminate it.
To paraphrase and subvert the standard definition, technology is the collective term for techniques, methods, and/or processes that make an activity easier. Cooking has tech. Hunting has tech. Manufacturing, from machinery to millinery, has tech. Scientific investigation has tech.
Basically, if it's something humans do, we've come up with tech that makes it easier to do.
Sometimes, we iterate on that tech endlessly (see: ways to kill each other), sometimes, we figure out the best option right away and leave it (see: the wheel and/or lever).
Sometimes – the majority of the time, probably – an attempted improvement to existing tech fails to make The Thing easier (whatever The Thing is). In those instances, the iteration is discarded or is itself iterated on until is does improve The Thing.
This is so obvious it seems silly to say; if you do a thing that makes the existing tech worse, that is failed tech. (Maybe not a failed attempt, if it teaches us something, but it is failed tech.)
In short, good technology – functional technology – reduces friction: it makes the effort required for A Thing, less. If it doesn't do that, it is not technology.
By this definition, DRM – Digital Rights Management – as it is implemented today by various media industries, is not technology.
It's not a failed iteration of technology; if DRM were completely successful in its purpose (it isn't), it still fails to meet the one criterion for technology: it does not reduce friction for whatever Thing it affects. In a perfect world (which, again, this isn't) it might theoretically achieve a state of adding no additional friction, but it will never make friction less.
It is, in short, doing nothing but making things worse.
Today, it makes it harder to get to your stuff. Tomorrow, that difficulty increases, and as time goes on, so does that difficulty, until we reach a point where The Thing no longer works because of this anti-technology.
Until we reach a point where we've lost years or decades of our culture because we let our Things be locked in vaults we didn't control, to benefit people who only exist to sell keys.
Silly Old Bear
This evening, while getting ready for bed, Sean pointed out the lamp on his dresser and said "I have a book about that bear."
The lamp in question is a ceramic sort of thing, the body painted to look like a tree, and the broad base painted to look like grass. On the grass there's a rather mopey looking Eeyore, and Kanga and Roo, and about three quarters of the way up the tree there's a somewhat faded bear, trying to look innocent, with a paw buried inside a hole in the tree.
It's quite an old lamp – I'm pretty sure my mom bought it to decorate my room before I was born, or perhaps a bit after – and it's the reason there's a Winnie the Pooh theme to Sean's room.
Sean has never so much as mentioned it before, ever.
"Yes," I said, "I'm pretty sure you do have a book about that bear. Would you like to read it for bedtime?"
Sean frowned. "No, the book is at school."
(Sean has a very… proprietary relationship with the small classroom library at his pre-school.)
"We have one here too," I explained, and pulled out a very hefty Complete Winnie the Pooh hardcover book from the bottom of his bookshelf. "Do you want me to read you a story?"
"I wanted a super hero story…"
"Well," I said, checking the clock, "I can read you one of each, as a treat."
He considered this, somewhat suspiciously, but seemed moved by the offer of extra stories. "Okay."
So I read the very first Pooh story, in which Pooh climbs a tree for some honey ("Like on the lamp!") and falls back down, and gets help from Christopher Robin in a rain cloud-based bee deception. There was a lot of giggling and complete concentration from Sean.
It's pretty long for a four year old: twenty pages, with only small illustrations, and probably the longest single story he's sat still for, as far as I know.
We finished the story and, as I've done in the past, I told him the title of the next story in the book, so he'd know what to look forward to, and turned to check out the selection of "Golden" super friends stories.
Sean kept looking at the opening illustration of the next story (something about Pooh getting stuck in the door at Rabbit's house… you might have heard of it), and fingering the pages.
"Do you want me to read another Pooh story, or a super hero story?" I asked.
He paused, really giving it some thought. It's no small thing, if you're this kid, putting Batman on the back burner even for one night.
"I want another Pooh story," he whispered.
So I hid a smile, we read, and when we were done Sean climbed up, retrieved a stuffed Pooh-bear from a shelf above his bed, and tucked into his pillow without a word of complaint.
First couple steps into the hundred-acre woods. A pretty good night.
Past vs. Present
Something I find interesting about the past-vs-present storytelling debate: despite the perceived/actual dominance of past tense in novels, many stories and anecdotes people tell each other face to face are told in present tense, even though these events obviously happened in the past.
This isn't a perfect example, but if you listen to this interview with my grandfather – http://www.dakotastories.org/homefront/Miller/RussellTesterman.html – at 8:11 or so into the interview, when he's talking about going fishing with hand grenades and starts telling the story, a lot of his phrasing is in present tense.
The captain says, "I need you to get these men out of here…"
The sergeant says to me, "We can take em fishing…"
So we toss in the grenades, and they stun the fish, which just float up to the top of the water…
As I said, it's not consistent in this example, but my recollection of stories told among family and friends is that they often almost lapse into present tense naturally, to draw the listener in, perhaps, or put them in the moment, or just because it's more comfortable for the speaker.
Come to think of it, jokes are often told in present tense, too.
A man walks into a bar with a parrot on his shoulder…
Anyway, the point of this musing is that I don't personally think present tense is as unusual in storytelling as some of the essays I read seem to imply. I certainly don't think past tense is any more (or less) the 'natural mode' for such things.

Statement following internet footage allegedly showing Chelsea fans in Paris
The material on this page is for media organisations only. Please do not publish links to this page.
The Metropolitan Police Service takes offences such as this very seriously, no matter where they occur.
We will examine the footage with a view to seeing if we can apply for football banning orders, preventing people from travelling to future matches.
We will, of course, assist French authorities to identify the people involved and support them in any action they choose to take.
At the same time we will be working closely with Chelsea football club.
Officers from the Met Police's Football Unit were deployed to Paris to support the French policing operation around the Paris Saint-Germain v Chelsea game last night (Tuesday, 17 February).
Metropolitan Police officers travel to matches abroad involving teams from London at the request of the local police force.
Anyone who has information about the identity of those involved is asked to call the police non-emergency line 101.

'Hi Nick, it's Boris here' - London Mayor calls Nick Clegg's radio show to demand ministers get out of 'their posh limos'
Rob Williams
Rob Williams is Production Editor (Web/Apps) at The Independent. He was formerly Senior Online Reporter. He has worked for The Independent since 2008.
Thursday 07 February 2013
London Mayor Boris Johnson ambushed Nick Clegg's radio show today urging him to get his Cabinet colleagues "out of their posh limos" and on to public transport.
Mr Johnson, who pre-recorded the message, was posing as a caller from Islington on the Lib Dem leader's weekly radio phone-in for LBC 97.3.
During the call he demanded more spending on London's transport system.
Mr Clegg, appearing on his weekly phone-in show, insisted the coalition Government had cut spending on ministerial cars by around 70% and challenged the Conservative Mayor in his turn to make use of billions of pounds worth of Treasury guarantees for infrastructure projects.
In the message, Mr Johnson said: "Hi Nick, it's Boris here from Islington.
"I just want to ask you when are you going to get all those Government ministers out of their posh limos and onto public transport like everybody else?
"How can we possibly expect Government to vote for increases in infrastructure spending which we need in this city and upgrading the Tube, which we all need, when they sit in their chauffeur-driven limousines - paid for by the taxpayer - rather than getting down on public transport with the rest of us?
"Nick, get them out of their limos! Boris, over and out."
Mr Clegg had clearly not been expecting the Mayor's call but immediately recognised his voice.
Told that Mr Johnson was not actually on the line, but had pre-recorded his message, the Deputy Prime Minister responded: "That's easy for him, isn't it?"
The Liberal Democrat leader added: "Boris, if you're listening - and I suspect he isn't - I think we have actually cut the amount of taxpayer money which is used to pay for the cars and everything for ministers by, I think, about 70%. We have massively slashed it and changed it.
"Clearly, ministers - myself included - drive in cars, but not all the time. I am about to jump into a train to go up to Sheffield this afternoon.
"I think the fact we have cut the bill we inherited from Labour for ministerial cars by, I think, around 70% is a big step in the right direction."
Mr Clegg told Mr Johnson he was "completely with him" on the issue of infrastructure spending and said that Chancellor George Osborne had made guarantees available to enable big projects to go ahead.
"We should, wherever we can, find whatever available money we can to invest in housing, in transport and in energy, and the kinds of infrastructure we need to create jobs today and help the the economy in the future.
"We have got Europe's largest infrastructure project - Crossrail - here in London. George Osborne and the Treasury, to be fair to them, have offered £15 billion worth of Treasury guarantees to get infrastructure projects going in London.
"My challenge to Boris is - Is he going to use the Treasury guarantees offered by this coalition Government for infrastructure projects to help Londoners?"
Hearing that Mr Johnson would himself be appearing on the programme with host Nick Ferrari next week, Mr Clegg said: "Tell him to get out of his limo and get the infrastructure projects we are offering moving."

Sleep diagnostics meets serious entertainment: the Starry Night™ Technology Bed
January 7, 2008
January 8, 2008 It's not the first thing that springs to mind when you think consumer electronics, but this high-tech bed from Leggett & Platt is nonetheless making its mark at the 2008 International CES. The Starry Night™ Sleep Technology Bed packs in a range of entertainment hardware to play with when you are not asleep including Internet connectivity, an iPod docking station, a 1080p projector and a surround sound system with four eight-inch subwoofers. And when you do drift off, there's plenty of technology left over to help you make the most out of your rest - dual programmable temperature control, a diagnostic system that monitors body movement and breathing pattern, plus anti-snore technology which detects vibration caused by snoring and tilts the bed to encourage you to stop.
Utilizing vibration-detection technology originally developed for military purposes, the anti-snoring system is designed to help alleviate mild to moderate snoring by automatically moving the mattress by seven degrees and then returning the bed to its original position when the snoring stops. Fortunately the separate mattress layout means that you wont have to suffer for the sins of your partner.
The mattress can be set to "pre-heat" or "pre-cool" on both sides of the bed (ranging from 68 degrees to 117 degrees Fahrenheit) and the body monitoring system aims to improve sleep over longer periods by measuring your movements during the night and comparing them to a 30-day baseline. Using this data and information gathered on breathing patterns (which indicate relaxation) the system then provides hints on how to improve your sleep quality.
The surround sound system incorporates four eight-inch subwoofers and a ribbon tweeter backed by 2,500 watt RMS amplification. There's also a 1080p LCD based projector with a 6000:1 contrast ratio and 2,000 lumens nestled in the headboard, wireless RF remote via Microsoft's Media Center, DVR functionality and 1.5 terabytes of disc storage.
The system uses a solid state hard drive for fast data transfer, has 4GB of ddr2 ram and both the diagnostic and entertainment features are connected to the life|ware™ home automation system, allowing you to control other electronic components in the bedroom and throughout the house and programmed to create custom multi-media experiences.
Due for consumer release in the first half of 2009, Starry Night™ will retail between USD$20,000 - $50,000 depending on the customizable features.Share

a book by Dan Clark a.k.a. Nitro< read all 2 reviews
Born to a Japanese mother and an American father, Dan Clark's life didn't begin well. His father took him and his older brother Randy away from his mother and little sister when Clark was only four years old. A man on the airplane told him "Big boys don't cry", and Dan has never forgotten those words. Dropped off to live with relatives for a few years, the boy's father returns and uproots them again to go live in Vietnam with his new family. Just before leaving Vietnam, at the tender age of ten years old, Dan witnessed the electrocution death of his old brother Randy, the one person he always looked up to and was inseparable from. After this kind of childhood, Dan learned to block out his emotions.
Starting with a football injury, and an offer to "rapid recovery", Dan began taking steroids. Steroids were perfectly legal at the time, and he quickly learned that the way to win on the team – and get noticed – was to "gain" (meaning pump up on steroids to get big). Trying at first for college and then pro football, Dan doesn't quite make it but never gives up. Never did he dream he would become the sweetheart of the nation on a groundbreaking TV Reality show called American Gladiators, in the persona of 'Nitro'.
This is Dan Clark's 'Rags to Riches' story, and the price he paid to get there. Over twenty years of steroid use left him with painful breast tissue that had to be removed, shrunken testicles, multiple injuries, an overdose, and an inability to feel emotion other than the constant rage that ruled his life both on and off stage. His love of contact sports came from having a legal outlet for that rage.
I personally never once watched American Gladiators, so I wasn't a fan of the show. But I do like to read books on addictions. This book was a surprising eye-opener for me, and Dan hopes it will be an eye-opener for young kids out there who are thinking about using steroids. He holds no punches back as he tells of his addiction, how it drove him and controlled his life, and how it stopped him from being able to feel emotion. Many times he mentions how empty he was inside, and how only returning to his addiction could fill that void. This is a poignant tale of a man lost in a very big world, compelled to over-achieve by an unseen force, and driven by drug-induced rage.
The book is well written and Clark expresses himself splendidly. It's a fast read as well, compelling and entertaining, and sad as well. His gripping tale of a twenty year addiction and recovery will keep you up late into the night reading. Enjoy!
What did you think of this review?
Use Trust Points to see how much you can rely on this review.
This is Clark's riveting, fiercely candid account of his life, career, and steroid addiction. From an upbringing defined by tragedy and a difficult search for identity to tales of performing center stage at Madison Square Garden and bedding Playboy Bunnies and porn stars, Clark explores the price of fame, the pressure of stardom, and how the whole steroid-fueled fantasy finally imploded.
What began in high school as a way to speed up recovery from injury rapidly turned into an all-consuming addiction. With selfdeprecating humor and a trove of incredible stories, Clark provides an eye-opening report on the dangers of steroids both obvious and hidden -- and offers his thoughts on why steroid use remains a persistent problem today. More than just a pulpy exposé, Gladiator is a triumphant story of self-discovery and redemption.

Staff Reporter
HYDERABAD: A music teacher, Aparna, approached the Uppal police on Wednesday fearing that her husband, Srinivas, working with a mining company, could have been kidnapped by its management. The company - Great India Mining Corporation - is reportedly owned by Deepak Reddy, stated to be a relative of a Cabinet Minister.
Ms. Aparna maintained that she was worried about the whereabouts of her husband working at Bellary in Karnataka since his mobile phone was switched off since August 12. Even as she was tensed up about Srinivas, a gang of five to eight persons barged into her house on Tuesday at Medipally of Panchavati colony, she complained.
Teacher's charge
"She alleged that the gang forcibly took away the documents of their house and a plot at Tukkupally stating that her husband misused company funds," Uppal police station SI B. Ravinder Reddy said. Based on her complaint, a case under Sections 448 (house trespass) and 506 (criminal intimidation) of Indian Penal Code was registered.
The SI said Mr. Deepak Reddy denied the charges that Srinivas was kidnapped by his men.
Quoting Mr. Reddy, the SI said Srinivas had misappropriated lakhs of rupees of the company and went underground.
The case took a twist by evening when the teacher complained to the police that her husband rang up in the afternoon from a mobile phone and sounded scared.
A few minutes later she received an anonymous call saying another relative of the Minister had threatened her husband and hence he was scared. Investigation is on.

What do you all think of this lamp? Worth 65$? I can't stop thinking about it!
hevsFebruary 25, 2013
My style is traditional but I think this really would fit in my husband wasn't overwhelmed by it
Doria Tremante
I have a pair of lamps very similar to this except they are gold. I fell in LOVE with them and had to have them - I however, only paid $5 for each at an estate sale. I lucked out. This looks like its a little heavier quality than the ones I have. I think $65 is a little much - but I also am one that if I can't stop thinking about something I better grab it because you don't want to regret it later!
HI -- I love the lamp - for sure my style - but not the right shade - needs more pagoda style silk shade or a natural linen texture. Not so sure the walls behind are the best backdrop for this piece. Maybe that's what is throwing your Husband off. Husbands almost never like this style - don't know why. Take hubby to a lighting store and see what he likes and maybe let him have the one he likes for in his own area of the house , then both of you will be happy. $ 65. doesn't seem to be a bad price - at least in my city .

SWAT vehicle's maker proud of role in Boston manhunt
The armored vehicle used to approach the suspected terrorist was vital in his capture and the officers' safety
By Callum Borchers
The Boston Globe
WATERTOWN, Mass. — The manhunt for suspected Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev had reached its climax. Tsarnaev, who eluded police for 17 hours after an early morning gunfight, had been located aboard a trailered boat in Watertown. The question was how to take him into custody.
"We had to assume he was heavily armed, based on what he'd done," said Robert Duprey, a member of the State Police SWAT team. "If you approach on foot and he throws a bomb, you're dead."
Instead, police drove up to the vessel in a BearCat, a SWAT truck made by Lenco Armored Vehicles of Pittsfield that has been alternately heralded as an essential piece of safety equipment and derided as a waste of money.
The use of BearCat trucks during the search for Tsarnaev — at least nine of the vehicles prowled the streets of Watertown throughout the day — was "rewarding as a validation for us and our equipment," said Len Light, Lenco's chief executive.

Guest Column: Sales tax holiday will be no holiday for taxpayers
By State Sen. Dave Syverson and State Sen. Brad Burzynski
Recently, two leading bond rating agencies lowered Illinois' financial credit rating, underscoring an almost universal recognition that our state's leadership has failed to deal with the current fiscal crisis.
In lowering its rating for Illinois, Fitch Ratings cited the "continuing unwillingness of the state of Illinois to take action to address its significant budgetary problems." A week earlier, Moody's Investors Service knocked the state for having a "chronic lack of political will" in addressing the fiscal shortfall in explaining its downgrade.
Part of the problem is a governor and legislative leaders who are unwilling to rein in spending and make the reforms necessary to bring the deficits under control. Also contributing to the problem are policies that decimate our already struggling state revenues.
Case in point: New legislation recently passed (S.B. 3658) creates a "sales tax holiday" on clothing and school supplies—a plan that sounds nice, but which is actually just election-year pandering that will end up costing taxpayers more over the long run.
In some ways, it's similar to those "too good to be true" vacation deals that, when reading the fine print, you realize you are being taken to the cleaners. In reality, the sales tax holiday isn't a holiday at all—consumers would still pay the 1.25 percent local/municipal portion of the sales tax, and the actual savings received would amount to $10 if you spent $200 on school supplies.
Altogether, this program is estimated to cost the state $40 to $60 million at a time Illinois faces a multi-billion-dollar deficit, and $6 billion in unpaid bills. If the governor truly wants to help area families and taxpayers, he would veto the bill and direct this relief to human service providers, many of whom have not been paid in months and are being forced to slash staffs and services for those most in need.
Additionally, Illinois is paying up to 12 percent to some vendors on the state's $6 billion backlog of bills. By directing the tax holiday revenues toward paying our bills instead, we would not only save taxpayers more than $5 million in interest payments, but we would be getting crucial relief to our providers, who will, in turn, put that money back into our local communities. Now that's a responsible way to help the taxpayers.
Sen. State Dave Syverson represents the 34th District, and State Sen. Brad Burzynski represents the 35th District. Both are Republicans.
