[Health business blog] A Chance to Cut is a Chance to Cure comments on the success of anesthesiologists in improving patient safety and reducing their own malpractice premiums, but laments that it may be more difficult and less successful as surgeons try to follow in their footsteps.

[Althouse.blogspot.com] Althouse: September 2004: . And Texas was so magnificent and important--the largest state in those days. Older readers may say, so your parents lived in Texas City right after World War II and before your birth in 1951, then they must have been there when the great Texas City Disaster occurred (in 1947). Yes, indeed they were, and they always taught me not to yield to the temptation to become a spectator at the scene of a disaster. (Read the story at the link if you don't know what happened to people in Texas City who went to watch a spectacular fire that was consuming a ship full of ammonium nitrate.) I have written before that I owe my existence to coffee. (Here's the story of how the smell of coffee caused my parents to meet.) But I owe my existence to coffee a second time. On the day of the Texas City Disaster, my father was working at a desk near a window. He got up to get a cup of coffee, and, while he was away from his desk, the burning ship exploded, sending a shockwave through the city, that drove a huge triangular spear of glass deep into the chair where he would have been impaled had he not gone for that coffee.
[Casadelogo.typepad.com] Fact-esque, A Reality-Based Blog: General Media Watch: That job falls to Frank Rich, who despite his talent, is not as widely read since he moved to the Sunday Arts section. He has had two recent stories on the idea of propaganda that hides its disseminators' agendas behind the cover of objective reporting (infoganda).
[Ariannaonline.com] Arianna's Blog: I saw the stock market start collapsing in late 1999 and really tank in early 2000 (look at Nasdaq five year charts) Watched while Greenspan kept dropping interests rates to try and stimulate the economy (which is self-defeating in some sense as you take away the higher return on savings accounts and such but had to be done) I watched the tax cuts (and we are not rich and did recieve a tax break, which to read this blog no one under $ 200K saw any benefit) and saw the economy start a recovery as commercial construction began to take off again and developers had incentives to build once again. (of course, evil, rich developers even though they did provide jobs from the clean-up kids to the $ 70.00 per hour union electricians) 2002-2003 were very good years for the building industry and we were screaming bloody murder for additional workers in every field, Our average wage cost basis (for the little people...you know, those not in middle management) went from $ 19.80 per hour to $27.50 per hour about evenly divided between wages (for the little people) and health care and worker comp costs.
