WWE vs. Fox News: The Illusion of Legitimacy
At first glance, WWE and Fox News seem worlds apart - one a wrestling empire, the other a major news network. But both thrive on scripted narratives designed to entertain and provoke.

Many Americans view democracy as an unshakable given. This is a dangerous misconception. Democracy requires vigilant effort and faces numerous threats that can undermine its stability.

Keep Florida School Boards Non-Partisan
Maintaining non-partisan school boards in Florida is vital for ensuring that education remains the priority over political agendas. Voting NO on Amendment 1 is crucial to keep political partisanship out of school board elections.

Evidence-Based Decision Making - Policies driven by data and best practices, not political platforms.
Support Women’s Reproductive Rights
While I respect your commitment to life, it's crucial to recognize that the issue of reproductive rights is deeply complex and personal. Supporting a woman's right to choose is not about endorsing "baby killing"; it's about trusting individuals to make the best decisions for their own lives and circumstances. Many women face difficult situations, including health risks, financial instability, or other personal factors that make carrying a pregnancy to term challenging.

Best Weapon In The War On Cancer? Hint: Your Mom Told You When You Were Three
The answer, of course, is learning how to share. In medicine, the question is when, and how, to share data. The hope (and hype) of Big Data is that massive datasets can help researchers and companies slice and dice cancer into smaller, more manageable patient populations where companies can rapidly develop, test, and launch new cancer targeted drugs and diagnostics. The goal, of course, is to generate much better patient outcomes, at much lower cost, than the status quo.
New York's $54 Billion Health Care Hack
New York State has two big challenges. The first is a health care challenge. The state spends more on its Medicaid program, on a per capita basis, than any other state. It also leads the nation in total Medicaid spending (over $54 billion). New York’s health outcomes, on the other hand, are middling and it actually scores worst on avoidable hospital admissions. The city and state also have enormous post-retirement liabilities for health care benefits for public retirees.

"In the Waiting Room" | Photo Credit: Frances1972, Creative Commons License Consumerism in healthcare just can’t work. It can’t work because seriously ill patients are under incredible stress and can’t shop around for the best care. It can’t work because information on quality and cost isn’t easily accessible. It can’t work because healthcare spending is heavily concentrated–just 5% of the patients account for 50% of the cost.

VideoEd Silverman, writing in the Boston Globe October 19th, pointed to lung cancer drug Iressa as a "cautionary tale" against using "surrogate endpoints" - signs that point to, but don't guarantee, a given clinical outcome - for FDA drug approvals.
