...success. Like the smug academic dad in The Squid and the Whale, Hillary believes that her child is different from other kids in a good way, an offshoot of Hillary's own genius, which has been unfairly suppressed by domestic horrors like cooking dinner. In actuality, she seems to treat motherhood as a part time job. But as grating as the arrogant, insecure Hillary is, she's genuine. Listening to her expound on how over-medicated our society is, you may recognize how easy it would be for a defense of one's child to serve as blinders...
...depressingly low figure, even for a relatively poor developing country. I recently interviewed a migrant worker from Sichuan province who several months ago broke his arm in an industrial accident. He's back home now, without a job, without unemployment benefits, and has no access to health care to treat his arm, which still pains him "to the point that I can't work," he told me.

...just in coding but in special branches of coding. Coding boils down to assigning specific numbers to every problem (diagnosis codes) and other numbers to every treatment (treatment codes).

...Steve Wynn has cut room rates to as little as $169 a night - the original projected rates were something on the order of $350 - but he won't cut service. That act of defiance means the Encore is a pretty astonishing value for any visitors in the mood to treat themselves to a Las Vegas fling in these tough times. The $2 billion, 2,034-room project adjoins the Wynn - the hotels are connected by a retail alley - completing Steve Wynn's most recent move to reposition the Las Vegas mind-set. The man who brought you exploding volcanoes...
Insurance companies often treat mental and physical illnesses differently, and those seeking mental health services wait a decade on average before receiving treatment, U.S. Representative Patrick Kennedy said at the Institute of Politics yesterday. Kennedy, a Rhode Island Democrat, spoke on the need to reform health care systems to better address the need for affordable addiction and mental health treatment. The event began with an introduction by Minnesota Congressman Jim Ramstad, who talked about finding himself in a Sioux Falls jail in 1981 before finally seeking treatment for his addiction. According to Ramstad, over 26 million people currently suffer from...
