Spin Zone / Re: Way to Go Tim Cook!

Ok, now you made me look this up.

Your assertion is what Josh Ernest is saying, but not what Tim Cook is saying.
...
Absent seeing the actual subpoena, I trust Tim Cook far more than I trust the President's spokesturd.
Here you go:

Spin Zone / Re: A World without Black History Month

I long for a day when we won't have a black history month because we will just study history regardless of skin color, give credit where credit is due regardless of skin color, praise that which is praiseworthy regardless of skin color, and condemn that which is condemnable regardless of skin color. 

MLK Jr and I have the same dream.

Spin Zone / Perverse Incentives Are Ruining Health Care

One Doc’s Story

" Dissatisfaction and burnout among primary care providers—a function of larger and sicker patient panels, inadequate appointment times, more burdensome and tedious administrative tasks, and poor compensation—have been well documented.  The rewards of the doctor patient relationship and the intellectual stimulation of clinical problem-solving were enough to keep some of us in the primary care trenches.  But it was a close call.

With the introduction of CMS's unethical incentive and penalty programs, most notably the Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS) and Meaningful Use (MU), an unpleasant practice environment was now an unacceptable one for me."

"The notion that PQRS promotes quality care rests on the flawed assumption that a bloated federal bureaucracy, CMS, can be nimble enough to produce quality measures that keep up with the rapidly evolving state of scientific evidence.  Reality contradicts that assumption. "

In addition to the stupid degrees, kids are taking six years to complete college.  I don't understand.  It used to be four and out!

The locker room part is strange enough.  But let's go back one more step.  How is it possible to want to be another gender?  No one loves boobs more than me, but I want them on a woman, not myself.
