• Dear Blog, I'm sorry I've neglected you. So much awesome public health news has broken in the last month, and I just haven't had the time to post it. Between three jobs, full time school, and moving into the city, I've barely had time to breathe. I promise I'll be back though. Come October, you'll be back in full force. #
• SUCCESS! I've switched over to a different SQL database and moved all the blog posts over. A few caveats though... Click more for details. (more...) #
• Just so we are all clear, I'm well aware of the swine flu outbreak. If you want that kind of news, you can look pretty much everywhere. As for me, I'm going to avoid posting anything about it until I know what's going on and the media sensationalism has died down. #
• We've already established my nerdiness in a previous post, so I don't find it any more embarassing to say I'm having a lot of fun looking up random items on Wolfram|Alpha. Looks like an awesome (potential) tool... if only they could keep their servers up. #
• Wired has a really interesting article (unrelated to public health) about the schizophrenic's perception of optical illusions. It's a quick and easy read and the video is well worth it. Check it out here. #
