NEJM Perspectives Examine Shattuck Lecture, McCain, Obama Health Care Reform Plans
�
"Health of the Nation -- Coverage for All Americans," New England Journal of Medicine: The perspective reviews the 2008 Shattuck Lecture, sponsored by NEJM and the Massachusetts Medical Society, in which 13 health care industry representatives discussed current challenges facing the U.S. health precaution system and possible solutions. The panel discussed physicians' objections to a reimbursement program that pays more than for technology-enhanced procedures rather of clock time spent with patients, reviewed the demand for developing health maintenance information technology and expressed concern about the high costs associated with new drugs and end-of-life guardianship (NEJM [1], 8/21). A related NEJM editorial discusses the wellness care proposals of presumptive presidential nominees Sens. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) and John McCain (R-Ariz.) and questions whether any "meaningful health care reform" will withdraw shape in the following administration. The editorial also calls for a "concentrated effort by all the major stakeholders in our health attention system, as represented by the panelists," to impart about reform (NEJM [2], 8/21).
"The Partisan Divide -- The McCain and Obama Plans for U.S. Health Care Reform," NEJM: In an NEJM perspective, Jonathan Oberlander, an associate prof of social medicine and health policy and establishment at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, examines the health plans of presidential candidates McCain and Obama. According to Oberlander, the candidates' "ambitious see the light agendas ... would take the U.S. wellness care system in very different directions." He adds that the plans "are best viewed as sketches rather than finished portraits, with many important inside information yet to be revealed." He concludes, "The candidates' opposing visions of wellness care reform reflect fundamentally different assumptions about the virtues and vices of markets and government. With the debate over how to reform U.S. health care far from settled, whoever wins the presidency can anticipate fierce opponent to whatever attempt at comprehensive regenerate" (Oberlander, NEJM, 8/22).

Microsoft launches video on Messenger
LONDON (Reuters) - Microsoft Corp has launched a new online service in 20 countries which will allow users to watch video clips at the same time as a network of friends and chat via Windows Live Messenger.
The new service called Messenger TV will offer a range of clips on MSN Video including MTV shows and music clips from providers such as Sony BMG.
The firm hopes the ability to watch clips with friends on different computers will create a new social experience and attract users who already spend hours on social networks.
"Online video has exploded in popularity over the last year, but to date it has been something people watch on their own. Messenger TV is set to change all that," said John Mangelaars, the vice-president, EMEA, of consumer and online for Microsoft.
"Watching video online can now be a social experience, as people watch videos together, make comments and share reactions."
The service will launch in 20 countries including many European countries, New Zealand, Australia, Singapore, Brazil, Canada and Mexico but not the United States.

Raised in the first place crossways the land in Detroit, at 16 she cut her low sides for the local Lupine tag, with a test pressing of the disc making its way to Atlantic Records. After signing with Atlantic, she scored an R&B Top Ten shoot out of the box with her debut undivided, "My Man -- He's a Loving Man," only to flunk to reach the same commercial high over again. After one more than Atlantic release, 1963's "You'll Never Change," LaVette moved back to Lupine for her third record, "Witchcraft in the Air." After a stretch as a featured singer with the Don Gardner & Dee Dee Ford Revue, she recorded the long-unreleased "One Thin Dime" for Scepter earlier resurfacing on Calla with the 1965 lost classic "Lease Me Down Easy," her only former phonograph record to crack the R&B Top 20. Two more Calla efforts -- the okay "Only Your Love Can Save Me" and "I'm Just a Fool for You" -- preceded a shift to Big Wheel, where after just one single, "I'm Holding On," LaVette again affected along, this time to the Karen imprint for "Hey Love."
