Headlines that make you go "Huh"?

The Government is pushing "electronic health care records" for cost savings, but now the AMNews reports that docs in small practices will have to shell out $5000 a year for insurance in case someone hacks the records.

And the insurance doesn't cover the 1.5 million dollar fine for every record of your that is hacked.
well, at least someone is making money off of the health care bill.

On the other hand, ordering folks to buy health insurance has been declared illegal.
Next step, of course, is just to change the way they do it: tax folks for health insurance, as they do for social security...and eventually you will see one payer insurance.

If you loved the medical rationing, ugly understaffed clinics, and poor medical care of the VA and IHS, you will love your future medical care.

I just noticed in the sidebar of the Washington Post that they included in their suggested story box a link to my "friends" stories (using my facebook page).

Uh, since when did I give you permission for this? Yes, the friend involved is an archeology page commenting on Egypt, but it's not really the WAPost's business who is my facebook friend...

China TV news story on their air force included a TopGun clip.

When you care enough to show the very best..

Why do so many sightings of the Virgin Mary predate unrest in these countries? From a Catholic conspiracy site...

There are such visions all over the world, so statistically a few are bound to come true.

Philippine big shot arrested in Hong Kong for drug trafficking: claims the stash in his underpants was just for his own use.

And the slush fund in the Army is being investigated: Ramos said it was originally to give to the soldiers as a reward, but now is just another way for those in charge to get rich. Hey, what's a couple million pesos between friends?

Things are improving here in the Philippines. Now the press is allowed to name the politicians who paid for the killing of journalists within days, (we have a strict libel law here, so the papers can only "hint" on who actually ordered the killings).
Of course, one doubts any convictions in the near future. They still haven't even started the court case on the Manguindanao massacre...
