I have to agree with Kevin MD, Sid Schwab has written the best summary of why that vast majority of people just don’t get the problems in healthcare.
… there seems to be a very schizophrenic attitude about physicians. People want more knowledgeable doctors, ones that will listen better and explain more clearly. Docs […]

NEUROSURGEONS ATTEMPT TO INTIMIDATE EXPERTS
Well, neurosurgeons have decided to put a stop on suits against neurosurgeons. How? The American Association of Neurological Surgeons (AANS) has decided that any expert who testifies against one of its members should have their testimony subjected to review by their organization.
Personally, I think this is less about stopping […]
The American Medical Association (AMA) today adopted new principles for health courts, special medical courts composed of judges trained in medical standards that could render more accurate decisions on whether or not medical malpractice has actually occurred.
This is probably a very good thing for doctors and a bad thing for lawyers. Personally, in […]
TheHill.com - The cure to the physician crisis

There seems to be a problem with how current versions of OS X store the mysql socket and how phpMyAdmin looks for it. It seems currently the socket is stored at /tmp/mysql.sock but phpMyAdmin is looking for it at /var/mysql/mysql.sock. The result is a connection error type #2002.

I spent about 10 minutes with it and if I could work it into my web development I’d use it. There’s always a but, isn’t there. But, I currently use a combination […]
The unmount.sh script has been working great in testing here.
I’ve added unmounting of sshfs volumes though I can’t test it ‘cause I don’t have MacFUSE installed.
I highly recommend running the script from a launchd process as this provides for better logging. Lingon is great for setting this up and I’ve even got a sample file […]
