The Future Of Healthcare Via Smartphone’s: Mobile Health Care Anyone?
2012-01-18 05:44:00 The mobile phone has brought about a lot of changes. First it changed the way we communicate with others over telephones. It made the office wireless. Then with the waves of smart-phones launched, it added more and more functionality to the device. With always on 3G, Wireless Sensors, and Cameras added to the mobile phone, it began to get a lot of other uses. Mobiles began to be used for E-Commerce and have now become a separate branch called M-Commerce. They changed digital photography and videography. They changed the way Social Networks operate. They even changed the way we spend our spare time, with a myriad of apps and games available on most smartphone platforms. Mobile phones have another use-case: Mobile Health Care.

Health Care ETFs Poised to Repeat Good 2011
2012-01-12 19:44:00 The final numbers are in, and 2011 was officially a “flat” year for the S&P 500. Without dividends, the large-cap stock index was actually down a fraction. With dividends, it gained only 2.1 percent. Today we’ll look at some interesting patterns in last year’s sector action — which was quite different from the broad market. Then I will make an observation about the way 2012 is starting off. Little Sectors Win the Year Standard & Poor’s classifies every individual stock into one of ten primary sectors. They then publish specific indexes for each sector (as well as dozens of sub-sectors within the ten primaries). So let’s see how each sector performed.

MUSIC OF THE HEMISPHERES
2012-01-11 19:37:00 Is music at the root of our human consciousness? This is the question that filmmakers, Elisa da Prato and James Fideler, attempts to tackle in her upcoming documentary, Music Of The Hemispheres (MOTH).

Readers interested in making the completion of this project and film a reality can connect to the MOTH Kickstarter page here and pledge. Only 14 days to go for it to reach its $16K USD goal.

Sports: The Next Public Health Crisis?
2011-12-28 16:20:00 Historically, the public health community targeted infectious diseases to which people cannot control exposure and transmission. The results are longer lives for most Americans. Of course, the fortunate success of public health also means that Americans who might have otherwise died of tuberculosis or diphtheria tend to die of something else (usually heart disease or cancer). Now, the public health community justifies its interventions in terms of public funds spent on so-called “preventable” conditions. The oft-cited costs to the medical system of individual choices are the justification for such heavy-handed policy proposals as salt restriction, “Twinkie taxes,” and chocolate milk bans in schools. If saving money spent on healthcare is the end-all, absurd policy recommendations can result. And most importantly, as A. Barton Hinkle “modestly proposes” in the Richmond Times-Dispatch, granting the public health community the right to take away some choices on “social co...
