...what I ultimately find most inspiring about the Twitter phenomenon. We are living through the worst economic crisis in generations, with apocalyptic headlines threatening the end of capitalism as we know it, and yet in the middle of this chaos, the engineers at Twitter headquarters are scrambling to keep the servers up, application developers are releasing their latest builds, and ordinary users are figuring out all the ingenious ways to put these tools to use. There's a kind of resilience here that is worth savoring. The weather reports keep announcing that the sky is falling, but here...
There are real savings to be had in cutting down on MRIs - especially unneeded ones. But it's quite hard to keep insured patients who ask for expensive medical tests and treatments from getting them. Blocking a patient who wants something they saw in an advertisement is time-consuming.

...Italy, arguing before a judge that publication of the photographs would constitute an invasion of privacy. That's where El País stepped in. The Spanish daily is one of several European newspapers - citing the control the PM has over large swaths of the Italian media - trying to keep the heat on Berlusconi. Giovanni De Mauro, editor of the Rome-based Internazionale weekly, says El País' decision to publish the photos is similar to British papers' printing of the details of parliamentary expenditures on porn films and home furnishings, revelations that have recently led to several high...
