...With his latest findings, however, Wackers thinks the ADA guidelines are ready for a revision. Heart screenings may not be as important as basic primary prevention strategies, such as ensuring that diabetes patients control their weight, cholesterol and blood pressure, and stop smoking. He argues that if the rate of heart problems is indeed declining in diabetes patients because they are being adequately treated for the risk factors for heart disease, then the stress test recommendation becomes redundant - and expensive...
...definitely an improvement from Saturday [‘s 17-5 loss] against Princeton.”Dartmouth sophomore Greta Meyer scored the first tally of the game in the first five minutes. Harvard soon evened it up as freshman Katie Doherty won a draw control and passed the ball to junior tri-captain Sara Flood. Flood whipped it into the back of the net, scoring her 17th goal of the season. That would be the only goal for the Crimson in the first half, as the Big Green outscored Harvard, 13-5, going into the break. Winning the next...
...While Meyerrose, Mansoor and other experts agree that the utility industry's vulnerability will grow as its command-and-control systems rely ever more on computer networks, those concerns are not new. Some security experts have cautioned against the growing use of "smart grid" technology - which relies even more on computer networks to allow both utilities and individual consumers to monitor and reduce power usage. There are already 2 million smart meters in use in the U.S., and the Obama Administration's 2010 budget includes $4.5 billion in spending on such technology.

It was unclear when these intrusions had taken place, but they had left a software signature. If that wasn't disturbing enough, the North American Electric Reliability Corp., a Congress-authorized regulator, issued an alert that the utilities had not adequately surveyed their computer systems to detect vulnerabilities.

...than the U.S. "It's virtually impossible to bring down the entire North American grid," says Major General (Rtd) Dale Meyerrose, a cybersecurity expert who recently retired as chief information officer for the Director of National Intelligence. The electricity-distribution system is highly decentralized, and there's no central control system; at worst, cyberattackers may be able to damage sections of the grid...
