Sites include Google.com
, startgoogleplus.com . Published on July 20th, 2011. Written by Anthony West.Moving your social networking “personality” over to Google+ just got a bit easier. I say “a bit” because only people using Google’s Chrome browser will have this capability—for now.
Not content with having his Facebook and Twitter streams outside of his Google+ experience, computer programmer, Zane Claes, has done a bit of coding and created StartG. This little innovative gem will let you import not just your photographs, but also lets you post directly to Twitter and Facebook. The extension also lets you integrate Gmail notifications directly into Google+. Want your Facebook and Twitter streams to show up in Google+? StartG will help you do that too!via sitetrail.comPlease click on the "via" link to read the full article.
I've given this a try and it will let you post to Google+, Twitter and Facebook Simultaneously. Worth checking out :)

S.C. Court Upholds $250K Retained Sponge Verdict: #nursing Breaking News in #Surgery > July, 2011 >
A South Carolina hospital has lost its bid to overturn a $250,000 malpractice verdict awarded to a patient who suffered pain, discomfort and an embarrassing odor from a sponge left inside her vagina after hysterectomy surgery.
AnMed Health had admitted liability in the case of Elise Burke, 73, who underwent an abdominal hysterectomy at the hospital on March 22, 2005. According to court documents, a pre-operative nurse mistakenly left a cleansing sponge in Ms. Burke's vagina, which went undetected during the surgery.
After the procedure, Ms. Burke felt increasing pain, discolored vaginal discharge and an offensive odor that she and her family argued had caused her emotional distress. Over a 2-month period, she raised these concerns with her doctor and sought medical assistance 6 times, according to court documents and testimony.

Sponge Counts are a basic and critical safety measure during a surgical operation. In this case, the standard three counts were not performed. A sponge was left in the patient that would later lead to infection. When the issue went to court, the surgeon claimed "it was not his responsibility" to keep track of the sponges.

Clinical competence, and whether a doctor is good, or not
Being a doctor, I often hear this question being asked. More often than not, the response that I hear is a rather clear cut one, “oh yes, Dr. X is a great doctor,” or “oh no, Dr. X is not a good doctor,” making me wonder what such a definite response is based upon. Is it based on actual facts? Is it based on subjective opinions? Although most everyone has more access to facts about physicians today than they have ever had in the past, I think that when answering this question, most people still mainly use subjective opinions and not actual facts or research.
As I understand it, the average person will spend literally hours or days shopping for an automobile or a household appliance. Although the majority of people if asked say that their health is the most valuable asset to them, how much time does the average person spend on researching or shopping for a doctor? I can assure you, it’s not much in comparison to the time they spent on shopping for their last refrigerator. Part of the reason for this may be that good, valuable, trusted, accurate information on a doctor is not yet the easiest thing to find. Although this appears to be improving, it is not quite here yet.

Why you should never go to the hospital in July – The Chart - CNN.com Blogs
Do not get sick in July. Why? You might die.
A recent study published by the Journal of General Internal Medicine reported a 10 percent spike in teaching hospital deaths during the month of July due to medical errors. We call this spike “The July Effect” and we attribute it to the influx of new interns and residents.
Typically, medical students graduate in June and begin their first year of residency training — internship — in July. This group of eager new interns invades the hospital to learn, care for patients, and make medical decisions. One problem. They don’t know what they’re doing.
Like most interns, I arrived with four years of medical school under my belt, an M.D. after my name, and virtually no practical knowledge of medicine. Although I wore the long white coat of a doctor, I kept my pockets packed with condensed medical manuals that we called our “peripheral brains” to make up for the lack of knowledge held in my actual brain. Thank God for these manuals. Otherwise I would have been part of “The July Effect.”
